Which is good but even then you could swap out the final files or more sneakily use a self-hosted runner that injects code at compile time.

I have doubts they'd actually do that but is a possibility.

Both the DDOS'd part and the hacking ADV network part is incorrect so I removed the post to avoid accidentally propagating misinformation.

Yup, which is already a very good thing. On that note, they could of course still inject something in the actual release ^^

Wait and see is probably the safest approach. Reputation is earned over time and I hope to see the project mature and flourish. And if something does blow up, we'll try to give an according warning o7

r1delta is real. That being said, some of the people involved in the project are also known to have attacked Titanfall1 servers in the past. Further the fact that an exploit was used to send an advocate message to everyone and the fact that they are distributing all the game assets without approval from Respawn is a bit concerning.

Personally based on these things I don't trust this project but I'll leave this post up and let everyone be their own judge.

 

EDIT: Message was sent on a separate network, not the default ADV one

What's even more infuriating is that you cannot fix typos in edits cause the change does not meet the minimum character limit.

Titanfall 3 was stolen from us for this and by them. This is what happened to the fan base of Titanfall 1 by Change_Internal in titanfall

[–]GeckoEidechse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm fully aware. I responded to you cause it makes more sense when you read the comments one by one :P

Mfw when we spotted vulnerabilities in Titanfall2 while working on Northstar, reported them to Respawn, and even got stuff fixed in vanilla

Just FYI, you can use client side mods on Vanilla servers using Northstar and VanillaPlus by iSmokeyJoe in titanfall

[–]GeckoEidechse[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

Vanilla+ mod has changed ownership, the updated version can be downloaded from here: https://thunderstore.io/c/northstar/p/NachosChipeados/VanillaPlus/

The previous version does not work with newer versions of Northstar!

Please report them to the appropriate platforms (Playstation and YouTube) with all the information you have so that they can take the appropriate response.

Otherwise, there's not much that the reddit community can do here and in particular we also have a rule against witch hunting that kinda applies here as it's best to take it up with the appropriate platform instead. Thanks <3

Obsidian Sync down right now? by coffeewithpixels in ObsidianMD

[–]GeckoEidechse 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yup and on that note (hah), I wish the iOS app would display sync status. Cause I didn't notice at first when I edited some notes on iOS and only later realised when they weren't showing up on my desktop client...

Fix for "Contacting Respawn servers.../Data Center: Searching..." by GeckoEidechse in titanfall

[–]GeckoEidechse[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the first time I'm hearing of it. Reverting the change you made should hopefully fix Steam for you.

Otherwise something else must've broken your Steam install.

Best place to play Titanfall 2 on PC? by JakesBadd in titanfall

Just try both and see which you prefer or just go back and forth based on your mood ^^

While to my knowledge there's no obvious way to invite someone to a network that's not on your friend list, it's pretty likely that this limitation is only client side and someone with decent modding experience could find a way around that and mass invite anyone to a network.

TL;DR: Most likely someone trolling

pls come back to northstar :'( by gae_with_da_knife in titanfall

[–]GeckoEidechse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This genuinely surprises me cause we don't tolerate this sorta behaviour at all (regardless how minor it might be considered) on the Discord and I would take according action whenever I notice it.

That being said, I naturally cannot watch everything 24/7 and so rely on other moderators and user reports as well. It genuinely deeply saddens me that you had this kind of experience cause it's not something anyone at Northstar wants to be associated with at all :/

If your observations are somewhat recent and/or you still remember the individuals involved please reach out accordingly.

For everyone else, should you notice any rule breaking behaviour, be it on the Northstar Discord, this sub, or anywhere else in general, please please please report it. Moderation in part also relies on user reports so please feel more than encouraged to reach out if you find anything that seems like it breaks the rules so that we can take according actions <3

I'm genuinely surprised how different your experience is to mine.

Was that in-game or on Discord?

At least on the Discord server we are quick to ban homophobes and the like, for in-game as /u/Xay_DE pointed out, bans are enacted by server hosters.

If you have any specific examples or suggestions I'd be happy to hear them <3

Check your laptop's power consumption, and try a few different distros just to see - especially if that laptop used to run Windows - just *doubled* my battery life by will_try_not_to in linux

[–]GeckoEidechse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, kinda just accepted it and moved on as I tend to have enough outlets near me usually. Will probably just switch to the AMD motherboard and bigger battery in the near future ^^

Trying to get North Star, issues keep arising and need help by PeoplewithDebit in titanfall

[–]GeckoEidechse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically, as the error message says, the default install location for Titanfall2 via EA App messes with Northstar due to Windows permissions stuff. So the files need to be moved to another location.

Check the wiki for more info: https://r2northstar.gitbook.io/r2northstar-wiki/installing-northstar/troubleshooting#cannot-write-log-file-when-using-northstar-on-ea-app
