  HackCam - Encyclopedia Glossary Meaning Explanation HackCam   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
HackCam (also referred to as HC) is an anti-cheating utility for the Counter-Strike modification of the Half-Life engine from Valve software.
Where normal anti-cheat utilities attempt to discover cheating tools on the users computer, HackCam is designed to find the cheats based on what they do inside the game.
Sound, shadows, signs of recent damage (bullet holes in a wall), knowledge from previous rounds in the game, knowledge from previous games on that specific map, and average human responses towards their environments, in addition to several other logic systems.

 So What Happened To HackCam? - GameArena   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
HackCam is detecting realtime what the player is doing, cross referencing that to a known set of skill values, which can be fine tuned of course.
You could even have options where HackCam does not even run on the live server, but takes a feed from HLTV and acts remotely, thus saving the server from a performance hit, if there is to be one.
HackCam is the future of anti-cheat, it won't be the ending of cheating, but it will put a hefty dent in cheating.

 Gamespace - Download "The" Hacks Video
HackCam is an anti-cheating utility designed for the first person shooter game Counter Strike designed by Valve, creators of Half Life and its many mods.
Unlike normal cheat detection utilities, the checking is not based on what files are installed on the players machine, what scripts are running, what processes are functioning in the background, etc. It is based solely on what the player sees in game and how they react to their environment.
It, however, cannot be matched in the database, since the entire object is not visible for a contour to be finished.

 Reference.com/Encyclopedia/Analysis of cheating in Counter-Strike
HackCam, which is rumored to become a supplemental anti-cheat mechanism to VAC2, Valve's anticheat for the Source engine, uses a wide range of elaborate detection methods to discover both ESP and aimbots, and awards points for suspicious actions.
One disadvantage of such elaborate cheating detection is the greatly increased ressource consumption on the server, as the software continuously analyzes all behaviors that a player exhibits for suspicious actions.
The creators of hackcam claim that all CAL-I players remained below a 70 points mark, where as more than 65 points would mean 'suspicious' and more than 85 points would indicate a very high probability of cheating.

HackCam (v4) was originally intended to be released in late April.
Unfortunately certain complications hindered the development to continue as expected and both fans and the developer was turned in a new unforeseen direction.
However, in the past seven months a lot has happened behind the scenes, and HackCam seems to finally be moving closer to a *real* release date.

The problem here is that it is VERY VERY hard to proof since you can not see the positions of other people, which makes it really hard to proof he is tracking through walls.
HackCam makes tracking very very obvious and while it isn't definete as in a cheatfile is detected on his/her comp, the theory of large numbers still count.
See it once means nothing, seeing the guy track perfectly every single round should ring a warning sign....and HackCam seems to be able to do just that.

HackCAM is made to track and discover hackers in CSS.
If you notice the top left corner in that little box, HC will show what might be used such as a lockbot (aimbot) or wall hack or something else like a no recoil script.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding what this hackcam is, but if its what I think it is then it may be bad news.

As long as admins do not take the hackcam programme as gospel then it shoould be OK Same as many other pieces of software really, think X-Spectate was the most recent wasn't it?
This isn't to say it is impossible to catch a cheat thruogh HLTV, but short of leagues where the players have registered steam_ID's that can be checked, HLTV demos are basically worthless for cheat detection.
As an admin at The-Space where HC was tested and developed, and a good friend of it's programmer, I can say it will undoubtedly blow you out of the water once you see it in action.

Unfortunately, the HackCam forum at az-prod.com is down because of hosting-relocation.
The more recent progress has been made on fine-tuning the detection systems and adding in additional detection routines to try and increase the percentage of cheaters detected when they are being more subtle about it, such as using a 'wallhack' but not firing on players through the walls.
OutOfAmmo: As I said earlier, the NDA was in place long before HC became well known on the levels it currently is. I have also stated on several occasions that an NDA agreement was in place, so any fans that were let down because of it should have been reading more and posting less.

The article may be written as a promotion for the product, but it's factual enough to be useful.
Nor is a merge called for -- HackCam is used with Counterstrike, not a feature of it.
I asked the creator of HackCam to write something about it in wikipedia to provide further detail to this relatively new tool.

 Reference.com/Encyclopedia/History of cheating in Counter-Strike
Even Cheating-Death appears to have run into a brick wall in its development, between the speed at which cheat programmers update their programs to bypass CD as well as every other Steam update causing CD to have an issue, the programmers of CD are fighting a losing battle on two fronts.
There is a lot of hope being placed in a program called HackCam which does not use standard methods of cheat detection, but uses advanced heuristic’s to detect the actions of cheating players and score them accordingly.
Thus far the methodology appears sound, but the program is yet to be widely released, and there is a fair bit of concern about CPU/Server overhead when running the Hack Cam software as a server side addon.

All multiplayer wallhacks of any kind are considered cheats and will probably be detected.
