Friends, it's no secret that our project uses Active Anticheat protection, which effectively protects the server from the use of third-party software, bots, clickers, unauthorized modification of client files (protection against the use of WallHack, disabling textures, etc.). At the moment there is a problem - when interacting with the standard C4 client, some of the functions are blocked by the protection itself. In particular, some game macros do not work.
The Active Anticheat developer has been assuring us for a month that the problem will be solved soon, but he doesn't give us an exact timeframe for solving the problem. We, like you, need specifics and understanding when macros will work, the Active Anticheat developer doesn't give it.
For this reason we decided to force the development of a new adapted client for Keltir C4 x1 server, to start earlier than planned. We planned to develop a new client anyway, but circumstances force us to speed up this work. We hope that the Active Anticheat developer will solve the problem with macros before the new client is launched, but it will not affect the work on the new client in any way. It's a lot of work, but the result will be a fundamentally new experience of playing C4.
What's a new client going to give us?
- Effective interaction with defense, support for all functions, including game macros.
- Complete or almost complete elimination of the problem of failure in textures, i.e. the client has a newer kernel, better combined with modern computers (it is because of the combination of the old client and new computers there is an effect of failure in textures on the client side).
- Complete or almost complete elimination of critical errors, sometimes occurring at the moment of teleportation, entering some locations of the game world, etc. (it is because of the combination of old client and new computers that create such critical errors).
- Use of multithreading. That is more smooth and optimized client work on modern computers.
But it will be outwardly like C4 client?
- Yes, our goal is to fully adapt the client to the C4 chronicles so that the player will not feel any difference when switching to the adapted client.
Does this mean that there will be some elements of the game that are not in C4?
- No, they won't. Skills, game mechanics, items and other things will remain the same. We will only remake the client, adapt it to work with our C4 server.
When?
- Development has already started and we will keep a blog to keep you up to date. Expected duration of active work is 1-1.5 months.
