Cheating just shows how people retarded can be.
I mean they are using cheats in such easy game
I don't understand this... why are they doing this?
To ruin another game? For what? What are they trying to prove?
That they can be more retarded that people can be? LOL
osu::~game()

I'm really out of words... still thinking how to procede, but no optimal solution. Flashlight is my favourite mod of all that's for sure. Even making it unranked sucks for me. All because of f..king hacker omg.
It's just like being a whore, and being happy of it. How pathetic...

Maybe dimka's IP address should be ban..also..all the hack program compiler.

IP bans are too easy to get around

i guess you could Hardware ban ppl who use it, but to get Hardware banning working good at all is a LOT of work and its still possable to get around it :/

The mod was cheated by simply removing the black blocking everything right? What if the mod were altered to instead simply show everything transparent outside of the radius same limitation essentially but without it being so simple to just remove since it would be using a completely different method.

Oh No, my favourite mod in osu D:
Well, i just can say good luck. I hope you will find solution.

Unfortunately proxying or spoofing this is way too easy.





Same goes for preventative measures. I am not too interested in going to further lengths at this point (but I have considered your suggestion previously and it is indeed good thinking).

Make Dynamic IPs countable as well.

Dynamic IP is not the only way to spoof around a IP ban

As a novice osu! player, I believe that the flashlight mod should not be removed from osu!, as it is quite a challenging mod.
Isn't there any way in which we could run another process once osu! started up (To search for the hack/cheat that this user released, if the user is using it, once found, it removes it from the memory of your PC.) Like an anti-cheat system for osu!

As I said in my previous posts, when you weigh up the issues that will result it is a very slippery slope to take this approach in privacy, performance and maintainability.

Okay, well I figure there's not much point in further discussion -- we'll just end up getting a lot of repetition of what has already been said.

Thanks for your comments guys. I hope we can find a good path forward where everyone can continue enjoying osu! with minimal impact from the odd outlier looking to cause trouble .
