How can I disable people from using Non Updating Launchers? My launcher is patched against the gunzlauncher.ini but what if they use a Non-Updating launcher? I've tried on some highly encrypted servers and their Server's dont appear on the server select if I start the game with my own non-updating launcher.
Please help me, thanks.
EDIT : If you guys have never thought of it then don't reply. Please don't say it.

P.S : Looking for a solution.
Erm Anyone?
I never even thought of this before, i'm sorry.
since theis so popular, why not just NOP it out via hex-editing?Code:@SKIP_UPDATE
I didn't get you.

the file "GunzLauncher.ini", it's usual 'code' is "@SKIP_UPDATE".
it features are to NOT update, right?
open a hex-editor, search for the line "@SKIP_UPDATE", and NOP it.
by NOP'ing, i mean:
now goes toCode:@SKIP_UPDATE
how to nop is easy, and you should know it by following MaxTraxv3's tutorial, with editing "GunzLauncher.exe" to your IP.Code:............
Or change the string, if you want to go the easy way out without ASM, and stick to Hex.
Guys, I'm not worried about my Gunzlauncher being bypassed. My question is, what if people use their OWN non updating launcher to run my game?
I've tried that on a few highly encrypted servers and if I start game with my launcher, I cannot see their servers.
Anyone?

Asm Coding? Disable Runnable to start with non updating Launcher?
YOU know Asm? Guide me more.

idk but u can find the runnable that has the coding Xiao Runnable? (if i am right if i am not sorry). or ask asm Pro
1) Have active checks on loaded files to memory.
2) Once the runnable is loading, have the launcher handle the initialization process (e.g. Inserting shellcode to load required files or libraries), beyond just handing off some command-line arguments.
