It is truly unfortunate that the motorcyclists ruined the entire race for us bicyclists.

Hopefully some day we can start the bicycle races again with rule changes from the umbrella organization.

I want to ride my bicycle. :musical_note:

One of Roblox’s recent updates broke compatibility with Wine on Linux. Again. I remember support was briefly added with this new anti-cheat update but it seems Roblox has taken that back. I can’t find much info about this.

I would assume Roblox has a plan to bring this back, yes? Doesn’t sound like such a good idea to prevent an entire OS from playing your game because of some exploits. Especially when this is something that could be fixed.

They didn’t break compatibility with it, they decided to stop supporting wine. According to bitdancer there has been in increase of cheating with supporting wine and have decided to cut wine support off.

If they made a native Linux client, this would NOT be a issue, blocking a whole platform because of 2 people (especially one that is rapidly growing in userbase) is such a lazy and stupid move to do.

No need for them, tools already exist for developers to do exactly that and from the server where no client cheat can bypass it. It’s the whole reason I continue to update the anti-cheat linked in my profile to fight back against the tide of cheaters and win as no one has been about to demonstrate the ability to defeat what my anti-cheat detects. :wink:

This is the greatest thing that could’v happened in my opinion. As a scripter I think we can all agree trying to make everything as secure as we can is hard at some point. There will always be a hole somewhere that can be exploited and synapse knew almost each one of them. I am very happy to hear about this partnership and can’t wait to hear about the progress:D

Still can’t say enough about this update - it’s cut down exploiting activity in our game upwards of 95% and our developers/moderators can spend more time on content instead of moderating stuff out/boosting a homemade anti exploit. Great work @bitdancer and team.

EDIT: Well, that didn’t last long

Arceus X Windows is about to release soon

Roblox’s WebView2Loader.dll gonna ruin their work eventually (people who knows, they know). Although they’ll also put another stealer in their exploit like its with mobile ones which has bank account stealer.

Exploiters definitely have no hope now.

I wouldn’t say that. Whenever anybody encounters a roadblock there will be at least one person who will go far enough to find a workaround/bypass through it and that just the reality. Which is why Roblox will have to continuously patch exploits if they want to keep it this way.

I hope this works out since well. lets say exploits have been a real issue since the release of Roblox and well BYFRON STILL DOES NOT WORK!!!

Is byfron integrated with the game or with the launcher?

I’m quite sure it’s with the launcher

Just wait, because its still not full protection.

@DeneoXtrem Hyperion is embedded in the client, not the launcher.
