Pure Faction

Pure Faction is a third party Red Faction anti-cheat, anti-hack, and anti-glitch patch coded entirely in ASM by TrotSkie. It also provides extra security for both servers and clients as well as fixing the infamous nVidia 8 Series bug.

Blocked Cheats

The latest Pure Faction release (Version 3) blocks most cheats available publicly for the game.

Specifics:

• Wallhacks: Pure Faction blocks all wallhacks.
• Colorbots: Pure Faction blocks all colorbots due to the color cycling rail scanner.
• Aimbots: There is only one aimbot known to work with Red Faction 1.2, and it is not public. Pure Faction blocks it regardless.
• Table Cheats: Pure Faction blocks all Table Cheats by making Red Faction load default game tables before any modified ones.
• Myth Trainer: Pure Faction blocks Myth Trainer by resisting the hook that the trainer must use. The trainer will not even pick up Pure Faction as Red Faction.
• Cheat Engine: Pure Faction blocks Cheat Engine exported executables by resisting the hook that they must use in the same way that it blocks Myth.
• Brightskins: Pure Faction blocks brightskins by always loading default game skins before any modified ones.

Blocked Glitches

• Baton Glitch: Pure Faction blocks the infamous baton glitch by not allowing people to switch weapons while firing.
• Reload Skip Glitch: Pure Faction blocks the Reload Skip Glitch by disallowing fast-switching.
• Green Team Glitch: Pure Faction blocks the Green Team Glitch by ignoring the "team'" console command.

Blocked Hacks

While most of the hacks that Pure blocks will not be discussed in detail for obvious reasons, a very basic outline of some of the kind of hacks that Pure Faction blocks is as follows:

• Hosting a server with an excessively long name - Crashes clients when they ping it at the serverlist
• Excessively long map name - Crashes clients
• Very long name when joining server - Server crashes
• Sending certain packets when they shouldn't be sent - Depending on the circumstance, can crash the server/client

nVidia 8 Series

Pure Faction fixes the issue with Red Faction and nVidia 8 series video cards. Without Pure Faction, 8 series users suffer from strange graphical glitches in the game. With Pure Faction, TrotSkie has developed the only known fix for this anomaly.
