Two random things about RoTMG


#1

wtf fullscreen w0t (look at bottom lines)

Good news, now you can play on a chromebook xd


#2

This is what it looks like


#3

Moved to community hub, because offtopic is for things that aren’t rotmg.

(though it could also go in academy or game discussion)


#4

Oh i see


#5

Although it isn’t hacking, it is cheating, as you’re basically getting

FullscreenLite


#6

So is it okay to do this or not?


#7

No.
Especially since they put the teleport limit on fullscreen hax, using this is pretty much the same as using the ‘real deal’ (or so I presume, I’ve never tried actually playing with fullscreen hacks).


#8

ok


#9

wait are you saying that changing the view settings is considered cheating?


#10

No, but this goes beyond changing the view settings in-game.

It may not seem like much, but seeing one extra tile on all sides makes a world of difference.

You can’t do this on steam, you can’t do this on the browser.
You’re not supposed to be able to do this.
It gives you an unfair advantage over other players.

It’s similar to xwalking, it’s a bug and abusing it is cheating.


#12

Not the same extent as fullscreen hacks. I’m confident that no reasonable admin would ban someone for using Flash Projector’s built-in fullscreen functions.


#13

I think it would be reasonable to ban people for it, but only after doing a public announcement in one of the patch notes declaring that it’s not allowed.

@Krathan What’s DECA’s official stance on this?


#14

Oh yeah nah if they told everyone not to do it then bans would be fine.


#15

But it’s a fundamental part of flash player


#16

There are testers that play with the flashplayer built in full screen.


#17

Hmm, I’d still like to hear deca’s official stance on it though. If they officially condone it, I might start using it too.
Also might not though because the game doesn’t have to become easier.

But it certainly would help to clarify things.


#18

Makes it nothing but ugly and annoying imo.


#19

How would you find out if anyone does it?


#20

Screenshots they post of themselves doing it.
Though with the new client fakery stuff I guess realmeye would be the only reliable source for deca if you’re not one of their trusted reporters.

I’ve seen several people post screenshots of them using it.
It still would be really easy for someone to use it to keep it secret, but that’s not really the point.


#21

There are clients to change the appearing name.
And realmeye accounts can be hacked.
