    The two most common forms of custom model cheatingng are
    1) "spiked" models - these models include very large spikes protruding a great distance from the model, which stick through walls and reveal ambushing players.

    2) specially colored skins - skins that are bright white or pink to show up even in dark rooms are the most common example of this. More devious (though it only works in games with locational damage, like CS) are skins that color a certain part of the model - the head, for instance - an unnatural color, like bright green or pink. These skins are used for aimbots that key onto that color, giving you a headshot every time.

    I never heard of #2 <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Even with Mp_consistancy 0 NS should have restraints on how big models are to prevent #1...

    An interesting counter to the color-coded aimbot has also shown up over time - people occasionally use sprays that are that color, which effectively confuses the aimbot. The reason it works is that the color used is one you'd never see in a normal CS map - when you add that color in a spray, you mess up the aimbot. (:

    These are old generation aimbots based on color. The new ones place themselves between the engine and the client dll to get the coordinates of players...

    Yeah someone was a scout with a RPG on one TFC server. People accused him of model cheating. What's that all about?

    I wouldn't know; I've logged about 10 hours of CS in my entire life, and most of that in the last 6 months. (: I'm just passing along what I know.

    Another file exploit is changing the volume of sounds so that you can hear things from really far away.

    ive seen color coded aimbots at work, it was kinda funny when my mouse was being pulled twards a central point of my wallpaper that happened to be #FF0000. but of course it couldnt trail ahead of the target and always missed if there was any motion at all. (this was for tribes, so dont claim i cheat NS <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> )

    Theres a bug where changing teams quicky (like faster than a human could) would give you the weapon you used on the previous team. So firstly go HWGuy then you would do the change quickly choosing scout when you reach the other team giving you the AC or RPG if you used soldier previously. Its a nasty bug that'll be fixed in the next pacth (if it ever arrives).
