Hi, it's been a while since I've been here.
I have a question related to editting a program.

I play vietcong on vista, wherefor I need to run a special program becouse the security system (Hradba) sees files from vista needed to run the game as a hack.

The program is called VCstarter.
Now the game is working fine on all servers, but the program VCstarter blocks mod's like no recoil, so when I start a game with it, it crashes the program with the message:
"Cheat detected" + the file that is detected.

I tried to look into the file with a dll/exe editor (PE Explorer).
But I can't find anything that has to do with this extra security.

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong or how I could solve this?

Thanks in advance Smile

So if i understand what your saying, the seperate program VCstarter, is used as a launcher (instead of the official game launcher) to bypass the game from scanning vista's files.

I would assume that the game checks for standard attach methods (such as attaching a debugger, or attaching CE), and becuase of this, it detects this launcher (which probably uses a DLL or something to attach & modify the game).

I could be wrong of course. XD.

I felt like getting somewhere, so I hope bumping is allowed.
If not, a sexy picture to make it up:

Well, excuse my rustyness but It sounds like the exe is packed to me. Seriously though, I could be completely wrong. I hope Flyte or some other expert comes in and corrects me if I am.

Well of course it'll be packed, or else it'll be easy to exploit.

Check with something like PEiD.

Tried some things, looked up some tutorials but the program does not find anything that is related (it finds nothing at all).
Probably I'm doing something wrong.

Well, too bad from lack of experience Razz

Hope somebody can explain a bit.
If not, I'll stay legit Razz
