BWHF Agent is a hack scanner too. The BWHF hacker database contains the hackers that were reported by this program.
You can run this program in the background while you play, and after each game it automatically scans your last replay for hacks. If it finds any and you have a valid authorization key, it can autoreport the hackers to the BWHF hacker database. Everything is automatic, you just have to run it.

What if the person is using a name spoofer? How does it work for that?
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

It cannot detect spoof (there is no legit way to do it).

Question, if it uses screen shots how does it handle people with capital i and lowercase L in their names since they are identical. Also I think the lack of spoof detection is very bad since there could be many legit users in there. There needs to be an automated way to just paste in a /where check to check for spoof also (can use autohotkey or something for this)

A potential way to solve L, i problem is instead of screen shots, it could packet sniff which I think is not against terms of agreement? What would be so bad about just reading the memory directly even though against terms? Alot of people always use chaos launcher and isn't that against the terms?

This looks handy and I look forward to trying it out, thanks for making it.

i and L are handled and the message is adjusted to something like "possible hacker" and if there is no L i conflict it is something like "sure a hacker". if you want to know it exactly read the paper he wrote where he explains it in detail.

...pretty clear the hacker distribution is like that because those are the realms that the people reporting hackers play on. Anyone who's played brood war ladder asia hunters games knows that 90% of asian pubs hack as well

Also Dakota did you change your hacker criteria because I see several of my AKAs on the East hacker list, as well as some friends, and hell, I'm one of the people you gave an authorization key to. I certainly don't hack. But I do use the lat changer. So did you change BWHF to recognize lat changer as a hack? If that's the case then you're going to have to add half of your authorized key users to the hack list. If it's not the case, then you are allowing people to report others without actual data, because I know for a fact that I don't use any hacks whatsoever but that there are many many people who wish i did.

Latchanger is still not considered to be hack by the agent.
There is a problem with maps having non-standard sizes (it might trigger build anywhere hack detection because Starcraft records wrong map size in the replay header). Iccup Carthage is an example of such maps. I release a fix for it today or tomorrow.

That might explain you being on the list (or spoof). What are your akas being on the list?

Well I've only played BGH games on the name of mine that is on the list, it's "tau" on East, and I see my friend's account on there as well. We both use lat changer but neither of us uses any other programs.

Any chance you might reverse the algorithm for unpacking replays, so replay actions can be changed and put back in to a replay? I'd make a Team Melee replay fixer if that was possible.

Parsing the screenshot in order not to read Starcraft's memory for player names? Pretty hardcore.

Amazing job!

flag: It's just a matter of principle. There are enough launchers and extensions that do favour for you by reading and altering the memory and are still being good intentioned. Although there can easily be written a hack plugin for chaoslauncher. I wanted BWHF Agent to be legal as no other extensions are. If we'd consider just reading memory acceptable, I could write a program which reads sc memory (and does not alter it) and announce what the opponent does (by playing sounds for example). It would be like: reading sc memory then saying out loud: "oppoent is expanding at 1 o'clock right now). It would not alter sc memory, still would be a hack.

NoobsOfWrath: I removed you.

RaGe: Theoretically it is possible to reverse engineer the replay saving algorithm. But it would cause a lot more damage to the community than helping it. Imagine everyone could start forging hacking replays of anyone (from a real replay, so you couldn't even say it was a spoof).


The fix is out for days now as version 2.61.


Changes in the new version since version 2.50:

-Changed the horizontal tab bar to a vertical navigation panel.

-A new Server monitor tab. On this tab you can check the online status of the battle.net servers and Starcraft websites. You can edit the list to add any of your websites (or any other servers) or to remove sites you don't care about. Basically you can add any server that listens on a TCP port (like ftp, online video and audio streams etc.). If a server is offline, you can start monitoring it. When the server goes online again, you will hear an alert sound. You can set the re-check time interval of the monitored servers. You can open the listed web sites with a click.

-New filters on the Player matcher tab: "Show only matches of players" and "Exclude matches with players". You can enter a comma separated list in each. The first one will filter out matches that *do not* contain any of the players entered here. The second filter will filter out matches that do contain any of the players entered here. These 2 filters can be used together or independently. The excluder filter is the stronger one.

-New setting on the Player matcher tab: "Max displayable results". If the provided thresholds allow more results, you don't have to worry about the Agent hanging or working too long. The highest matches with the best authoritativeness will be kept and the worse results will be thrown away.

-Added a startup splash image.

-Added hand cursor to the chart canvas.

-Fixed a bug which returned a false map size if it was a non-standard size (now it's read from the map data section, the replay header contains wrong value).

Is there a problem if someone spoofs your name and hacks with it, then your name comes up as a false positive?

Cause my friend's name is up on the hacker list for 1 day and he doesn't hack at all.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
EDIT

Sorry I didnt see that you just now replied in my other topic. :D
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Great Tool!

I have a question though.

Wouldnt it be cool if a group of people that have keys make a web interface where you can upload a replay that BWHF announced as containing a hacker and that after upload it gets checked again and then reported?

The thing is that I love the tool but I do not have a key for it, I have played against several people that used hack and I cannot report them (I can just add them to my personal list) But it would be great if we can get those people out of B.net ...

An Idea would be giving keys to the guys at repdepot and recommending them to pass each uploaded rep through BWHF and then if a player has hacked it gets automatically reported. That way not many people has to have a key for that.

I mean is just an idea.

What happens with duplicate names on gateways theres no guarantee they're the same person. What if someone hacks on another gateway just to get someones name added to the list? Also above you said theres no way to check for name spoofs cant it do a /where on the players in game to see if they're actually in game to check for name spoof?
