New rules regarding /fpslimit usage

(1/9) > >>

[MAF]Karlis:
Hello, after recent controversy about the legitimacy of using /fpslimit continuously to gain advantage over other players instead of using actual driving skill, we decided that some new rules are needed.


What is not allowed?
You are not allowed to change /fpslimit in middle of the race, only in the beginning. It doesn't matter do you use a keybinder, a macro button or keyboard + joystick combo.

* this applies to /race and /tt modes.
* changing vehicle while in a SK/MTA race is an exception, and it is allowed to change limit in that moment.
Why it isn't allowed?

* it doesn't require racing skill, but rather skill about abusing the game engine bugs.
* for the most of people it is rather uncomfortable to switch to FPS below 30.
* some videocards and their drivers support fps limit quite badly and makes people lag more than it should.
* it requires peripherals and/or software that is not owned by everyone.
What is the punishment?

* for anyone caught doing this his record/time will be deleted.
* after being caught 3 times all highscores will be reset.
* if one does set a time which is impossible to set without breaking the rules, we reserve the right to still ban for it, if we're in doubt did one use cheats or this exploit.
For anyone using this exploit, consider revising your tactics!

[FSR]Ush:
Hooray, an obeisance for the admins pinning this problem!

[2F2F]PK:
Delete all the records in /tt which are abused with fps limit?

[AK47]odala:
And in /race ?

McD0n3ld:
I think it's clear, don't abuse /fpslimit in the way he says and your highscores will be fine.
