When is going to far too much? I hope Valve's pockets as deep as MS, this isn't going to be easy for them to do!

A new front for the legal wars. Those a-holes that make hacks/trainers is manipulating software which is a violation of software liscence agreement and should be sued for every penny they have. Personally it should only target the online cheaters and not the single-player ones.

its so hard to catch them thats the problem, if one guy gets caught other will find different ways to get around not getting caught. Hopefully it turns out for the better and they are able to clamp down cheaters and hackers.

Yes it will be hard but at least it will so down the distribution of hacks and less flamers online.

It's funny those guys talking about being banned for being too good. Hopefully if you play HL2 online now and you get owned, you won't have the "you cheated" defense, you'll just have to admit the other guys were better than you.

legal action for video game cheating...this will get laughed out of any court. There are no laws or precedents for this, it will never work.

I guess you like to cut and paste your news info from [H]'s front page, just like you cut and paste all of your technical information from "other" sources :lol:

lol GW what me to shut you up again?
News is news, You think everyone has the time to go find it all?

I suggest you shut up now before I really start flaming you again.

And this time I will really make your shader explination look bad. What you explained there was a 2 year old baby slobbering over a newspaper with a thumb stuck in his mouth.

Oh yeah not to mention it was a cut and paste from nV's promotion of the fx line, where you missed the more important parts to come up with your crap explination.

Btw what is the differece between a pixel and fragment shader? What happened to the fragement shader in your explination? What Ogl doesn't exsist anymore?

Just one more off set remark.

"hello world"

If you were a programmer this is the first lesson you would learn. lol Probably didn't even know that.

While we're on the subject of cheating though - Is someone going to sue Denmark/Sweden for collaborating to knock out Italy? :wink:
