PB GUID Update

Evenbalance has confirmed with Teamwarfare that all PB GUID's should be in the range of 0-9 and A-F. Starting today, admins will be actively going through players PB GUID's and removing all invalid GUID's. Players with an invalid GUID, it will be removed, and you will be kicked off your teams roster. You will not be allowed to rejoin your team until a valid GUID is in your player profile.

Players that are competing in playoffs or a tournament, you will not be allowed to rejoin period. Players that are on teams competing in such events, you have one week to enter a valid GUID in your profile, or it will be dealt with accordingly.

PB GUID's

In an effort to ensure a cheat free atmosphere at TeamWarfare, we want the community to know that we do and will continue to check PB GUID's and verify that they are in the correct format.

When a case arises that we find an invalid PB GUID, we will be issuing suspensions to those players and/or teams until the PB GUID's are correctly entered.

Please keep in mind that you can locate your PB GUID by going on a server and typing /pb_plist. Your PB GUID is NOT your username.

If you have an invalid GUID in your profile you will be removed from your team and can not rejoin until a valid GUID is entered. If you are the founder, you will be suspended from CoD until your GUID is updated.

If you rejoin your team without entering a VALID GUID, you will be remove from your team again, and for a second offense you will be suspended for 15 days or until a VALID GUID is entered into your profile.

If you get suspended from CoD for invalid GUID, you can contact me in irc or by email Wyldchild@teamwarfare.com to lift your suspension once a VALID GUID is entered.

Evenbalance Announcement

Saturday 06.12.2004 [2:30PM]

In keeping with our policy to terminate the license to use PunkBuster for GUIDs associated with hacking or interfering with PunkBuster's operation, we have today begun such banning for violations incurred while playing CoD. We wish to stress the point to honest players to never test hacks and cheats that claim to hack or interfere with PunkBuster's ability to function properly. Players who are no longer able to play on PB servers due to such bans are still able to play CoD on non-PB servers.

This means if you are busted cheating it doesnt matter if the server is streaming to PsB or not you are BANNED from ALL PB COD SERVERS PERIOD. Any and ALL cheats are now a GLOBAL BAN on ALL COD PunkBuster Servers.

Cheating Posts

Anyone found posting public screenshots of cheats or PB kicks will be suspended and forum banned from TWL until further notice. PB is not perfect and all accusations will need to be verified by my staff with corresponding GUIDs and IP's. Consider this your only warning. Please email all screenshots/demos to codacteam@teamwarfare.com

Glitches / Exploits

* Prone Glitching

The first (and most used) Glitch that we'll go over is the Prone Glitch.Instead of taking screenshots of every place that you can prone glitch in MP maps... I thought it would be easyer and more efficient to just defign the glitch.

ProneGlitching is when a player goes prone on the edge of a brush (wall, ledge, ect.) and he can't be seen or hit, while still having full view of his/her oponent. This glitch can be performed on most wide ledges in the game. An important thing to remember about this glitch is that you could be using it without knowing.

We urge teams to check their strats for this glitch before running them.

* Angle Glitching

Angle Glitching is when you are leaning around a corner (usualy a broken wall) and you can shoot, but not be seen or hit. This glitch is very hard to spot, and can only be performed in a few places in the game.

* Grenade Glitching

Grenade Glitching is when you drop a grenade at your feet and jump when it is about to go off. You take the damage from the explosion, but in turn you get boosted up to a ledge or area that would be otherwise out of reach.

* Clip Glitching

Clip Glitching is where a player is inside or shooting through a texture that is not Clipped.
For non-developers, Clipping a texture makes it so that it's solid and a player can't walk or shoot through it. There are some places in MP maps that they forgot to clip.
IE: The top hatch of the tank in the A bomb warehouse (depot).

* Individual Glitches

Shooting a player through a texture, ie if they are clipping a wall and you shoot their foot/back/leg/arm - is illegal. However, using the intel of where they are to nade/prefire/kill them because they were clipping through a wall is not...

A good example of this is the east wall of pavlovs house, backing into that wall allows you to clip through and be shot from the german spawn.

TKing in PAM before 1st round starts to get a extra gun is Illegal

Climbing to high places is fine, as long as there is Texture under you.

* Textured Glitches

Using a texture to your advantage where you can be seen but not shot IS considered a glitch. You may not use cover where you are visible but not hittable in any area.

This gives an unfair advantage to the attacking player as you are able to line up shots with cover and 'glitch-lean/duck fire' at them.
