Yeah, the kicks with Xfire/Fraps just started happening recently. If you did get kicked, it would be something like "Unknown Windows API function [######]."


Here's an official announcement from EvenBalance:

"Some new cheats are now actually hacking FRAPS in order to cheat in the game. We're trying to work with the FRAPS people right now to get this addressed. The current situation is that PB kicks for any version of FRAPS that is not the latest version or any version that has the known cheat hooks. Both Xfire and FRAPS are being used by cheat authors in attempts to hide the cheat without hacking the game or PB directly. The kicks for old versions are restriction kicks rather than cheat violations - players who get the restriction kicks should not be in danger of receiving any kind of ban. A violation kick indicates that PB found a specific cheat hook."

No it def wasn't that (sorry I can't quote 'cos I went back to the server for a quote and just got banned!). It was modified memory or something like that.

I'll try something now, got a few minutes
