What a coincidence your autohotkey software uses the same icon as the hack. Such bad luck

So why does blizzard not just force you to have something similiar to anti-hack from bw running while you play and then show u at the start of the game whether both players have it or not?


Antihack software is embedded in the very game, so everyone is running it. The problem is that it's not impossible to write hacks that can't be detected, at least not at that point.


So then someone explain to me how anti-hack could work so well for bw and how blizzards piece of shitty software is obviously failing so insanely hard. Or is it just bigger population = more assholes?




Without knowing anything about computer sci yourself it's very hard to get players to understand how expensive and hard it is to play cat and mouse game with online hacking. Also you have to take any real world laws and what companies are allow and not allowed to do when it comes to detecting things on other peoples computers ect ect.

I already explained several times in this thread, but people just seem to blame blizzard and /rant.

Blizzard is doing what they can, with the resources they have. We don't know the situation with their anti hack department, as of last year Blizzard has had a job opening for that very slot, in the mean time it's very hard to keep updating warden vs internal hacks that have protection vs it.

And Blizzard can do very little vs External hacks which provide overlay information but don't inject into the game itself because of real world internet privacy laws and other things that are illegal.

How you mean ? I cant believe that maphackers will start perfect scouting or blind countering only because they learnt it from playing with hacks?

In the other side, what does that Autohotkey anyways? I saw in link auto inject, wouldnt it help only to zergs?

Btw, it's clear this guy is using some 3rd parties and that hes hacker, it would just be nice if we clarified some things I mentioned.

What a coincidence your autohotkey software uses the same icon as the hack. Such bad luck

The fact some hack apparently uses AutoHotkey and the developer is too lazy to change the icon does not mean some guy hacks because he also uses AutoHotkey for something else. That 'H' in green is just the default AutoHotkey icon, and AutoHotkey can be used to do all sorts of things. I mean I use a AutoHotkey script to change my Caps Lock key into a multimedia key (e.g., Caps Lock + F1 = Play/Pause music) and disable its default functionality.

Though from his comment apparently he does use the AutoHotkey program to 'hotkey his buildings', which is already a bit shady as it apparently gives him some kind of advantage.

Regardless, my point was AutoHotkey can be used in many, many totally legit ways which have nothing to do with StarCraft and/or hacks.

I ´ll quote the Sc2 terms of use:

A. use cheats, automation software (bots), hacks, mods or any other unauthorized third-party software designed to modify the Starcraft II experience;

Since Autohotkey isnt a authorized third-party....



Good job inspector Hose !

hey guys. i did some more research and i am really glad imbatoss streamed some games for us .

I watched a VOD of imbatoss and found a little programm called "Autohotkey" in his soundsettings.
proove: http://imgur.com/93COMqK
so further i was researching on maphack in general, since it seems the EU-Ladder is full of them atm.
So http://www.d3scene.com/forum/starcraft-2-hacks/73680-auto-inject-minimap-hack-unit-detection-overlays-much-more-sc-2-0-9-wol-hots.htmlhere is the hack he is probably using.

Thats how the interface looks like:
http://imgur.com/wel7C.

The icon looks pretty familiar right ?! He also muted the programm since it gives you audiowarnings. According to the website all overlays are seperate and can easily positioned on a second monitor. So the guy streamin prooves nothing. He even prooved himself hacking .







haha epic find! good job ^_^



not really he of you know??? not link the freaking hacking site for others Can someone whos been on tl for a year or has + report his post so a mod can delete or pm him to edit out the direct link to the hack jesus use common sense here, we are trying to prevent hacks not spread it on this site to.


Everyone has free access to hacks, they are one google search and two clicks away. We can at least show the hackers that we know what programs they are using and will bust them.

On another note. Targa just said on Twitter that Alastor, who competed in many tournaments and is currently in WCS EU Challenger is also hacking... this is getting out of hand.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

even sadder is that's just not true
that's like saying if you take a practice test with your answer key and get 100, you've gotten better as compared to taking the test without the answer key.
ability to look at the answer then solving will get players to be proficient at cheating, not legit playing
