Still yes, when the version compability is solved so those with modded content can't cheat playing against users with the original non-modded game.
Very impressive. I do trust you, although I have some doubts as not once did you show the view from the actual car itself. Show me a video with the speedometer of the car going from zero and I will believe you.

hey just wondering how the anti cheat stuff is coming. even though i dont play online, i completely understand your position so good luck on it all
Thanks, I haven't had much spare time to look at further at this but the version incompabilty is now solved so users can't cheat on XLink playing modded cars against honest players.
Give me a day or two and I'll get something out to test with.

i'm curious about one thing with the antihack stuff. if there are 2 xboxes on the same network playing a network game (not sure if forza can do that or not, if it can not ignore this post, if it can keep reading) can the boxes still use the cheat? me and my nephew often play other games like this and i was curious. it would be kinda fun to race at 1000mph. if it can't be done that way well so be it,
Yeah, the plan was to release the tools to make self-signed ca2 files, but to add some sort of incompatible changes on-the-fly so your forza with custom ca2 files won't work with a forza with regular ca2 files.
From what I have leared, you can add certain (i'm not telling what) stuff to the ca2 files which actually breaks network play if the other player have a ca2 file without those changes.
This would enable network play with custom changes.
Anyways... the problem is that those changes are very easily spotted by someone which does a compare between to cab files. And from what I have seen by some other comments in this forum, I'm not amused. So this is actually the showstopper at the moment. I'm not willing to trash xlink-forza with the popularity that Forza enjois on Xlink.
Just a note to the cheaters (_NOT_ you h2o): stopp badmounting people, and go play your cheats PGR2 and Halo2 instead.
There's also the problem of people stealing the credits, ie. embedding the tools in another vb-gui and stuff.
If there wasn't for people like ******* **** it would be released a long time ago (yeah thanks...)
I have tested cars with 1000mph, and it isn't actually that funny. Really. It's just like running another car with max speed 200 in 200. There's som flanky physics messing it up.

The best thing I enjoy about the modding is that one can now fully customize more or less all cars (- paint job / vinyl from the menu of the race cars currently), and not be dependant on the semi-customizable options in the game originally. Ie. Window tint on the BMW, bigger rims, bigger break discs, bigger break calipers, larger wheels, lover ride height, etc.
With full RGB customizable colour settings one can also choose between 16.7 million different colours for each and every car.
Edit: By the way - it's 1000 km/h not mph. Benchmarked to 1250 km/h (or so) which is pretty exact the speed of sound under normal conditions (which was my goal).

Yeah, the physics doesn't give the impression of a super sonic run - however at top speed you will see the surrounding objects and texture fly by pretty fast and avoiding colliding with regular racers can be a bit of a trouble as you come up on them so fast.

Sweet. Now that the anti-cheat patch thing is done, got an estimate for the release of this awesome modification?
Its tested and working, but as stated it's not release ready because of the reasons mentioned. Don't expect anything right away. It's done when it's done so to speak.
There are still many unknowns, especiall when it comes to the tracks. I don't know whats what, but it would be funny do add a lot of cones in the middle of the road, don't you think ?

I beg to differ.......forza is about all classes, d to p1
a class cars can be hacked too, why wouldn't they(theres more to hacking than simply upping the hp or lowering the weight)
the reason the tools aren't released is cuz they are powerful in the wrong hands......... any idiot would know that forza 2 would have many similar "weak points" like forza has......
therefor if a tool hacking forza....could easily be used(to some extension) or re-developed into be used in forza 2

Any hacked car will NOT be a S-class. You can hack a car to be whatever you want without regarts to car performance, just take a look at cars.xml or whatever, and you'll se that you can change it to whatever you want.

Actually, you can change teh power and keep the car class the same. If you change the stock-level-0-or-whatever files the game does not notice it. It only checks when you upgrade parts, so your enzo s1 vs mine renault clio suv d4 anytime

also dont give me this "it will upset the balance while playing" people can and will notice differences when people try and cheat online.
Biggest problem as I hear it, is time....... Dos wants the tools to be non-reversable..... which means that no mediocre hacker can reverse-engineer his work.
And hes is swamped with work and other stuff..... so you just have to sit idle by and wait.
Not sure if forzadude2 can release it.......but im sure he's in the same situation as Dos.........working toooooo hard.

Yeah its hard work alright.....
But you realy shouldnt think these peoples are gods or anything.. They are mediocre programmers...
Maybe medium skill level at the highest...... With maybe one years experiance of coding C/C++ anybody could figure this out....
And Ya you are pulling everyones fucking strings by teasing us.. You excpect us to beg to know how to do this.?? :/
LOL, they figured out the recompression scheme of cars.ca2... Like holy radaition batman, thats not sooooo teriblyyy difficult to do!!
I don't want any replys saying
well your right, but neither do we (myself and everyone else in the forzahacking scene)...

or.....
"we work sooo hard and we do this as a hobbie, dont ask us for anything we dont owee you shit"..
Everybody here that cant program has been waithing for a tool to repack cars.ca2.. For the past year (prob longer :/)
Or at least the info on how to repack it...
And now we have proof that someone figured it out......
And now your showing off!!!
Don't exepect me to kiss anyones ass for the knowledge of howto: do this, even a moded cars.ca2 file beacuse i will not do it!
..............All im saying is that noone is going to kiss your ass for the tool, or files, so quit showing off unless you have something to bring to the table.

We have some issues resembling one of the files after implementing the modded content version checker. Without it being properly secured anyone can just change it back and use the mods to cheat and race with tweaked cars against honest users. I'm not going to ruin the best XLink racing game for any honest XLink fans just so a handfull rants can cheat away.

Will it support sys link as long other racers have the modified files?Plus how big is forza on Xlink? I don't like Xlink as it does not like me. I have XBC and I never see more that 2 severs up at a time with no more than 3 people racing (let me rephrase that) ...no more than 3 people drifting at one time.
