"The Storm Is Coming" - Blockland Hacked at last?

[TheHotHat]

For the last loving time, you can't hack blockland.

He ment the Forums not The Game. :/

Explain, please.

Yes, it can be hacked. Like everything else; You can be safe, that nothing is impossible.
Blockland runs on the TGE Engine, which isn't up to date. It's from 2007. It haves it's bugs and exploits, which can be abused. For example, take some C++ function, which is supposed for networking. Now it has an exploit, like that it wasn't privated: Now, if someone would know that C++ function, he could easily abuse it through assembler. (The assembler is still holding the original function name) But because no cow has TGE anymore, and it's not for sale anymore, no one can really find anything there in short. Torque3D (which runs on MIT-License now) fixed that exploits already. That's why no one or a really small amount of people ever attempted to "really" hack blockland. And with "really" I mean stuff like debugging, assembler coding, etc.

This: "It's impossible to hack Blockland" thing isn't 100% true. It's right, TGE uses a very good client-server architecture(for example, deleting a brick in an online server, does it only client-side, but not server-side), making it impossible for users to change any server content. But one exploitable function in networking c++ codes, and you will be able to change server content. If you don't believe that, I can't help you. Now what's getting me wondering: If someone really attempts to do that, then everyone starts to rage and say: "I somehow knew this would happen." While they said, that hacking Blockland was impossible. Interessting. Blockland Logic.

i feel like a better way of looking at it would be "no one would be bored/stupid enough to bother themselves to attempt actually hacking blockland"
mainly because it would be really fricken obvious and their key would be deactivated almost immediately

Lol can I use that picture

I don't know how you managed to type two huge paragraphs and still manage to say nothing bigger than "there could be an engine exploit but we don't know".

[Eepos2]

I don't know how you managed to type two huge paragraphs and still manage to say nothing bigger than "there could be an engine exploit but we don't know".

Everything he typed is true. Why are you trying so hard to defend that statement, it's obviously false.

[Cassord]

ah starum is caoming miser wayn

But no, for serious, blockland can be hacked, it's just like any other game.
Also the forums (of course) can be hacked.

I didn't say what he said was false.
I'm saying he really didn't explain much aside from "I don't know but here's the possibilities that no one's taken the time to prove."

But no, for serious, blockland can be hacked, it's just like any other game.
Also the forums (of course) can be hacked.

Difference between Blockland and other games: networking structure.
Other games allow the client to determine things.
Blockland, and TGE in that sense, does everything on the server side.

So anything 'hacking' would simply be a backdoor mod exploit.

But in all honesty, if you want to surprise me, I do have a server running. Do something extraordinary with it!

stuff guys

Eepos connected.

i knew it , i agree it seems weird, and they haccked but badspot could have been hacked, i think he was hacked as one of the first 4 he was actually a 5th, because right afterward, his server went down with no warning, then he hasnt
posted anything on the topic of hackers, he never said it was resolved, Ephilties all of a sudden ha sproblems with RTB
This verion of rtb hasnt had problems until just now, and that doesnt make sense since if it was around a while, any bugs would have showed them selves earlier if they involved the entire system, its also weird how now their are Auth Errors For alot of players, and how now there is also 3 accounts that were hacked, and one was deleted. it is possible they could get the keys of these players, even badspot's key. This is most definitly bad. and if this wasnt true, wouldnt have Badspot came here and said something? isnt it weird he hasnt noticed this topic? more importantly, when was his last post, when was Ephi's  last post? and did anyone hear the US government's website got hacked last month, I dont think that has anything to do with this, but you know, Dont Count anything out.
