Hi - I have read in another forum that it actually possbile to cheat in mutiplayer mode, but then you have to use the deub version. Is it not possible to enable a "switch" in mutiplayer mode to allow the use of cheats also, almost as in AOE, mutiplayer mode? Even if only "some" cheats are allowed, as in superpower etc? Regards Kobus

Cheating with debug versions is no longer allowed, since it was being abused.

Ediing your game files is only way to cheat on multiplayer.

Debug builds are special versions of Warzone designed to be used to help fix bugs in Warzone. They're not available to the general public.

You can't cheat at all in multiplayer, because it would be unfair to others.

Editing game files will cause others to kick you out for cheating. Try it. ;)

Yes, it causes you to get a big error message "You were kicked out for cheating!"

I believe it shows that in stderr.txt. It might show up in a popup window on Windows, too, but I haven't tried it myself.

What do you think the anti-cheating stuff in 2.2.4 was? ;)

there is no way to do that. besides - cheating ruins the experience. if you cant play with out cheating... perhaps you should try first person shooters....

Unfortunately, there's no way to do that right now.

No, fixing it requires programming.

You don't need any programs. You just need skills.
