I don't like the punkbuster program, for much game with punkbuster I get kicked for no reason (Bbc2), and these games can still be hacked (Warrock).

Olympus Engine uses "Hack Shield", This prevents the use of Hacks in a game.

I'm not aware of any Anti-Hacking that are fullproof. The best prevention of course is legit moderators with good ban tools. Also, to prevent them hacking your game, you need a game first, shouldn't that be the first focus? When Waterwars is set and if we do have a hacking problem I'll certainly look into options. It is interesting the amount of games that have no hack prevention at all and a lot seem to do decently well, though mainly I'm thinking about Urban Terror (not kid friendly). In any case if it ever does become a big problem I'll look into it and see what I find

Take care.

that was a sentence cut short. It is intended for you to come up with your own ending to it using your imagination. Generally it just means, add to it if you want to.
I know one particular game that has huge issues with hacking, namely x-gen's stick arena. I would play that if it wasn't for the hacking. But anyway...
