Re: WSC and On-line Cheating

There are simple ways to combat cheating. Its a matter of the Online Engine developers to support it properly. Also... keep in mind... some players like to use "modified cars" and there must also be a way for them to play online too... with notification. I have confidence it can be accomplished quite easily, and with responsible consideration to the community as a whole ;) Cheers, Schumi "Chris Bloom" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > With the likelihood that WSC will be an "open" format, which will allow > third parties to make additional vehicles and tracks for it, is there nota

With the likelihood that WSC will be an "open" format, which will allow third parties to make additional vehicles and tracks for it, is there not a chance that this will allow some dishonest folk the opportunity to cheat? Apparently this sort of thing goes on in on-line SCGT races, with some people increasing the grip and power of their cars. Hopefully some sort of check system will be built into WSC to verify that all competitors are using the correct settings. Chris -- Simbok Racing www.geocities.com/simbokza

I did read an interview with the West brothers where they mentioned they were working on preventing that sort of thing. But nobody knows how well it will work out in the end.
