eev Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 Oh noez rune bot must be bak!!! thats what it sounds like :x i heard somthin from a friend a few months ago. He was talking about a similar scam, but it only worked with cash and a separate item. Heh dunno :? needle scam... needles were practically invisible and stackable. so people would offer 100k and 1 needle (which looked like 1,000,001 gp) for stuff worth like 200k... I remember a guy offering 50k and a needle for my full rune or somethin... he didnt have 100k :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magekillr Posted July 19, 2004 Author Share Posted July 19, 2004 yeah i remember that scam....but i believe this an actual program or hack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingjoe2002 Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 there has been fun hacks where u can edit ur side of the client to show stuff u dont actually have for ages i believe...but then again the item isnt actually there. I think its related but now much more vicious considering u can affect other's client...just a theory lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fierce-Penut Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 its most likely a hex editor telling the server that it has x+1000000 amount of money but you really have x amount of money so when u trade u only get the x of the other person so x+1000000=false to server but x+1000000=true to visuals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zimlem Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 To everyone saying that it's only visual on the client side.....when you trade, on your side it's visual, but on the other side, it passes through the server..making it not real again.... I highly doubt it's a hex editor. -Zim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest IcePenguinX Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 I'm going to stop trading until this is fixed lol. Ha ha. No wonder you were telling me not to trade people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romeoteddybear Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 well I have to say..it'll be hard for Jagex to patch this..considering what the people are doing is packet editting..heck I've seen some games use software like nprotect to protect them..nope doesn't work bypasses and things can be done to get thru.. But it seems they're doing cash cause it's an easy packet(s) to modify...so if you trade cash for their items you should be safe.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honzy Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 happened to me quite a few times :shock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeoteddybear Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 note: this isn't an in-game glitch..so it's not that easy to patch anyway.. They could try changing the value #/ID of the gold/gp or try encrypting that packet.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
