Method to See/Shoot through walls !

[revolver4]

I know you said it would take a bit longer to load, but I have give my client a good 5 minutes and it refuses to load up. @revolver4

Delete the file, Verify cache so steam will replace it, and edit it with notepad++ ( DO NOT EDIT IT WITH THE REGULAR NOTEPAD ).

really good stuff, works like a charm in most cases thanks

only downside: if you remove walls for example and get close to a really big house with lots of walls...rust will freeze and take some time to figure out that there are no walls i guess
when there are way too many walls rust just freezes for like 10 min and you´ll timeout

I looked into the recent "walk through walls" hack that was reported where you delete/rename your ngcconfiguration.000.unity3d file; and while that was "fixed"; it wasn't fixed enough.

It looks like the fix was to check the byte-size in the Manifest, and compare it. However it doesn't appear that it checks anything else. If you'd like to shoot through/see through walls; follow below.

Note: You cant walk through the walls, it appears they at least added a sanity check server-side for that sort of thing.


Texture "missing" Hack:
1. Go to Steam>Steamapps>Common>Rust>Bundles
2. Open ngcconfiguration.000.unity3d in a Text editor. Find "WoodWall". Replace the last L with a 1 (or any character should do.), so now it says "WoodWal1". Doing so does not change the Byte-size of the file, but does make the texture become "missing"
3. Open Rust, join a server. Joining may take a moment, as its timing out looking for the wall.
4. Shoot people through walls. Since the server appears to take your clients word for "I did Damage to X", and your client doesn't know the wall is there, it ends up doing damage to the players. I was also able to place a sleeping bag on the interior of buildings using this method to get into their houses, place a sleeping bag outside first so you can easily get out as well.

At least give credit when you steal someones hack... or if you try to steal something from the official RUST Forums; do your best to answer peoples questions!

The reason some of you are having issues with loading, is this requires the game essentially "Times out" when loading the wall textures. I run an i7 & GeForce GTX 680, so mine times out really really fast. But it'll depend heavily on how many walls it tries to load. The game may stop responding in this time, but it'll be back! As with all hacks in alpha games, YMMV.

Also yes, this will be detected by Cheatpunch if the way Cheatpunch works is to take screenshots. I do all of my testing on a private non-cheatpunch enabled server, and freeze my network output anyway so; it doesn't bother me much. But remember that all hacks (ALL HACKS) carry inherent risk.

If you got banned, it doesn't mean that it's detected...If a big mass of people gets banned, then it's detected.

I'm still kind of worried. Can this not get you VAC banned? I mean, you are considered tampering with the game files. If it will NOT get you VAC banned, will someone please explain why? Thanks!

It can get you banned.
It doesn't necessarily mean that you will get banned if you use it, but there's always a risk.

The only way getting vac banned out of this is if Cheatpunch screenshots when you look at the wall's and there is actully no dam walls
