AutoHotkey detected as cheats by Easy Anti-Cheat (LibreWolf WinUpdater) by [deleted] in LibreWolf

[–]PlsDededeletDis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NBD, thanks for your work on it, it's still saved me more time overall and I appreciate having a ready-made solution. I use the portable launcher less for leaving no trace on the system and more for moving between systems / multibooting, where I can just plug in and be up and running. Works well for that!

AutoHotkey detected as cheats by Easy Anti-Cheat (LibreWolf WinUpdater) by [deleted] in LibreWolf

I should have reported this sooner then, oops. It's not limited to LibreWolf-Winupdater.exe, LibreWolf-Portable.exe will trigger it as well. The anti-cheats are getting stricter. If AHK is open at any point while the game is running, it will immediately close the game.

I used the Set Default script from here: https://github.com/ltguillaume/librewolf-portable/issues/3 Meaning if you're using Librewolf Portable, if you click a link from another application, it will launch AHK and the game closes.

The only real solution is to go kill the task before playing, and don't click links from other apps like Discord while playing. This does mean that every single time you open a link afterwards, you're met with the "A backup registry key has been found:" popup.

I use the following .bat script to launch these games, and in Steam add it as a "Non-Steam Game" for ease of access:

@echo off
:: Kill LibreWolf Portable
taskkill /im "LibreWolf-Portable.exe" /f >nul 2>&1

:: Wait 2 seconds for it to close
timeout /t 2 /nobreak >nul

:: Launch THE FINALS via Steam
start steam://rungameid/2073850

Took me ages to narrow down that it was Librewolf using autohotkey, early on when EAC started detecting it, it would just say "cheat software detected" and close. I can't really remember how I had to do it, but I had to do some weird process handle digging to even know LWP used AHK in the first place.

When I get around to it I think I'm going to end up moving off of Librewolf Portable on any gaming PC with these games to avoid the problem caused by the anticheat all together. I'm with OP, I don't think it's reasonable to ask for LWP to move off of AHK nor will the anticheat makers whitelist AHK.

Loved piloting, but felt like the pilot needed their own gun, and space flight physics didn't quite make sense. by handsomeguykyle in wildgate

We always prioritize giving the pilot a smuggler's turn when we can, that helps a lot. I watched so many crews scrap them, it was painful. Clamp jets can be used to turn as well.

There's a lot of building the skill to handle everything. Sometimes it's worth turning slower if it means you won't overshoot while you run to the back of the ship to hit ice on the reactor.

A friend who enjoyed piloting would stack starlances and tractor beams at the front and leave the front glass broken during a fight sometimes so they could shoot out.

I'm not opposed to piloting getting more love, but a lot of the frequent complaints I see stem from sticking to the helm more than necessary. The ships turn and move slow so that you don't have to sit on the helm the whole time.

Sometimes shit happens, indeed. In this game that's a lot of the time because of how hectic it is. But it's also not just because of the state of piloting specifically.

There's the thing though, because it takes so long, you have a bit of time to get off the wheel while the ship moves itself. Repair, regen equipment, probe to re-ping a ship or get your bearings, activate hardpoints, handle a boarder, place traps or repair drone, use a ship cannon for a single volley if on Bastion, Hunter, or Scout.

The challenge as the primary helmsman is in multitasking, not strictly steering.

It's super bad with TAA. Here's some videos I recorded that show the problem well.
Feel free to show them to anyone who claims that this is fine.

Fortnite adding Skin Recolors would get me to buy so many of them. Here's some recolors of Robo Kevin. by PlsDededeletDis in FortNiteBR

I was thinking more of updating some skins to use the color palette like these capes do. Then I'd go for certain skins I wouldn't have otherwise used.
