Welcome to the information log for VRTX Development’s Anti-Exploit.

CHANGE-LOGS

Change Log: 1.1.4:

  • Added in the ability to add your own extensions to the System,

  • Added the ability for the extension to be detected as a ModuleScript anywhere in ReplicatedStorage aslong as it has extension somewhere in it’s name in any capitalisation,

  • Added in a new DetectAdonisAdmin configuration which allows the System to detect any instance of Adonis and remove it (such as the Command bar or admin alert),

  • Updated the PrintConfigurations as mentioned in VORTEX 1.1.3 Console Output Update,

  • Added a PrintToConsole was set as true but it's a Deprecated feature warning as mentioned in the Console Output Update.

  • Fixed/Changed the V_ReportCommand feature to run on the server instead of the Client, currently working under all tests,

  • Updated the PrintConfigurations as mentioned in VORTEX 1.1.3 Console Output Update,

  • Changed most events to “SelfCreate” as I call it, this removes the need to have multiple events folders,

  • Changed the V_Events folder to insert in with the V_Inserter rather than having it in with the default V_Admins and V_Configurations.

Note: I am working on making the V_Events folder completely “SelfCreated”. I am also working on adding in a GroupLock to the V_ReportCommand to prevent abuse.

Change Log: 1.1.3:

  • Added in a new EBD feature, allows a developer to enable or disable detections for a specific player on the client (Eg, if they get in a plane that gives them extra health, to prevent being kicked for health exploits, you’d use this),

  • Added in a new IngameAlert feature, this allows you to enable, disable and configure ingame alerts to display for admins and the detected user (Counts down for the detected user, then kicks them if enabled),

  • Added in UseIngameAlerts_PLAYER, UseIngameAlerts_ADMIN, PlayerAlertCountdown and AdminAlertCountdown configurations to the V_Configs module,

  • Added in a new V_SystemFunctions module to the VORTEX_Replicated module which allows for the use of custom functions (Such as instance:ShowDetectionUI(Player, Reason).)

  • Changed the V_ServerDetection to not search for the PlayerGui once a player is in the process of being kicked,

  • Changed the V_ActionHandler script to work with the new IngameAlerts system,

  • Changed the V_ClientDetection module to fully prevent scans during EBD protocols.

  • Removed an old script and placed it into the V_ScriptArchive,

Note: There is an issue where the V_Loader and Inserter scripts do not detect the V_DEX_NAMES module, this does not effect the V_ActionHandler nor the V_Configs.Dex_Panel_Detection features.

Change Log: 1.1.2 (bug crunch & misc):

  • Added new support for Version info:

  • Added a comparison from the VORTEX Server to the InfoModule to prevent outdated versions,

  • Added a Version value to the VORTEX Server,

Change Log: 1.1.2:

  • Added an exemption for Admins during scans,

  • Managed by the V_Admins module, game admins cannot be kicked if found ‘exploiting’,

  • The system automatically adds the game.CreatorId into the V_Admins module (If user owned, then they will be exempt by default),

  • Added Client & Server alerts during scan requests,

  • Says if the player can be scanned (If an admin),

  • Says the Scan Count (Server or Client count),

  • Added a Repair_Nil_Values,

  • If set to true, when an error is found in the V_Configs module, it’ll use default values,

  • If set to false, when an error is found, it will not use default values, and just continue (May error out),

  • Removed the DefaultAdmins being exempt from detections,

  • Only admins chosed by the game owner will be exempt,

  • DefaultAdmins (VRTX Developers) will only have command access,

  • Removed V_DEX_NAMES from the DefaultConfigs module,

  • The system will use the direct path to the DexNames module

  • Changed the PrintToConsole value to be false by default,

  • Adding the ability to detect a studio instance, if detected, it will default to on,

Change Log: 1.1.1:

  • Added an AntiBtools detection,

  • Includes an Anti_Btools configuration,

  • Includes a Kick_If_Btools_Found option,

  • Added a Scan_Interval configuration,

  • Branches for options (Client & Server interval),

  • Defaults at 0.5 (SERVER) and 0.1 (CLIENT),

  • Added a Btools Possible Names module (Similar to the DexNames module)

  • Removed the Kick_If_Btools_Found temporarily,

  • Will default to kicking,

  • Changed the AntiBtools feature to scan both the player(s) backpack, and what they are holding,

  • Changed the contents of the DexNames module

  • If found being held, it will say Using Btools,

  • If found in a backpack, it will say inserting.

Change Log: 1.1.0:

  • Added player reporting (a player says "!report [User]).

  • Added the ability for the system to detect the closest match to the username given.

  • Added webhook support, including past server detection (if a player was to rejoin after a kick, the log will remain),

  • Added information on the reported players Health, JumpPower and Speed - should help to identify a valid report.

  • Added DexExplorer detection, featuring the ability to detect the DexExplorer with different names, capitalisations and more (if DexExplorer was called D3x, deX_Explorer or any names similar, it’d be detected),

  • Added a version identifying UI, additionally, a future version comparison will be added to check for new updates.

  • Added a Detection method field to the detection Webhook (server or client detection)

  • Added a PrintToConsole option for scanning feedback & report system cooldown updates,

  • Added in a new DisableAll feature to the system, deployed under the Danger Zone; when enabled, all aspects of the system are disabled.
  • Added in a warning when the DisableAll feature is enabled → Cannot be disabled to allow for effective ‘bug identifying’ if you mistakenly enable DisableAll and don’t know why the system isn’t running…
VORTEX 1.1.4 | Slight Console Output Update:

  • Added in more information regarding PrintConfigs & PrintToConsole (Deprecated)

VORTEX 1.1.3 | New Features & Slight patch:

  • Added in a new section to the V_DEX_NAMES module that includes the new Dex version/Alternative version,

  • Added in an AntiNoclip feature that detects when the a few parts of the player character changes state,

VORTEX 1.1.2 | QOL - EBD Protocol:

  • Adding a new function to the default Roblox functions ( Script:EBD(true or False) for example) to make it easier to manage EBD toggling.
VORTEX 1.1.2 | extras part3:
  • Added in a version comparison system,
  • If the system is outtdated then all players will be kicked and a warning with be outputted into the console (“The current VRTX version is outtdated, contant the game’s developers.”) - This is to prevent any players bypassing a fix I do, or just to make sure the system is as up to date as possible.
VORTEX 1.1.2 | extras Part2:
  • Updated the V_Loader, V_ConfigsHandler, V_ClientLoader & V_ClientDetection in order to reduce bugs when a new player joins, dies, resets, or is detected, a new feature called ClientBackLoad will initiate. ClientBackLoad (CBL) re-loads VORTEX in order to make sure nothing can get past,
  • Updated printing sections - Only CLoader and SLoader notifications will bypass the PrintToConsole option in order to display accurate debugging information regardless of settings.

Note: I am going to add a more customisable PrintToConsole section which will include sub options such as PrintSystemMessages (VORTEX Loading & updating), PrintDetectionInformation (Detections of players, scan runs & results from both the Server and Client) and a PrintMiscInformation (VORTEX Information such as the V_ConfigsHandler and administrator information).
