Slac personal info

Kidding...

But seriously... on Chaplja's profile he has the game windowed... it has taken the screenshot, but also snapped details of an open folder behind....

Could be a bit of a security problem?

I was trying to make a bit of funnies and you ruin it with a completely unrelated, unrequired attempt at explaining yourself.

hattivatti 17 May 2011, 20:57
Are you implying Germans have a sense of humor?
Parent

Danje 17 May 2011, 20:59
Yes, Germans do have an amazing sense of humour. It consists of murder, rape and showers.

Only joking

What was the answer?

ETNiES 17 May 2011, 20:53
That there's nothing he can do about that, and its up to you not to leave personal stuff open if playin a game with slac.. something along those lines anyway.

Surely it is possible to grab the co-ordinates of the game window and only take an image of the co-ordinate + X-Y resolution.

SLAC is designed to take screenshots of the game window, but bugs may happen. In COD4 there's a small bug that sometimes takes a screenshot if the game window is minimized, but it will be fixed. And it's unrelated to the screenshot of me which you're mentioning - it's from the time when I was developing screenshots in COD4 (changing).. it's one of the many 'strange' screenshots which I removed because they are from the development phase.

Also if you report it then they'll remove it nP, but ofc up to you to look at these screenshots. Same case when people had ss of ref/rcon pass up.

who is saving passwords, bank datas and some stuff like this on the computer in a textdocument or so ....
▼
Danje 17 May 2011, 20:58
A bank account number / personal URL is in plain text on a webpage. It is possible that the window will be in the right place and information will be stolen!!!!! OMFG hax

the do during game no private things, like watching porn or play games where u don't need slac :D

Danje 17 May 2011, 21:01
It's true, I wouldn't do it, but it will happen. Chaplja would be sued if it was found out that this information was used. Which means no more SLAC :(... it's basically theft of information and publicising.

D4ve 17 May 2011, 21:03
but when someone found a screenshot by himself where he is seeing private stuff then he can report the screenshot that it will be deleted.

first of all i wanna know if in the eula is standing something that everyone can see the screenshots which slac is doing when there is nothing in, then he can get some problems with the law.

True, but not everyone checks their SLAC screenshots just incase a free anti-cheat application has publicised their personal data/details.

run the game fullscreen and don't open things while playing. very simple, why should he care about ppl who do something else while playing?

Danje 17 May 2011, 21:00
Why shouldn't he care about people who don't want to play fullscreen?

first everyone was complaining about no good anticheat, now chap did one and everyone says oh there are so much mistakes in your program fix it fix it. he is just a single man who can't solve any problems or know everything, so deal with it how it is or just stop running it, it is YOUR decision to run it not. when you complain about it so much, don't use it

Firstly, I do not use SLAC as I do not play ET. Secondly, I do agree, I was only pointing out a little bug that I found. If nobody reports these bugs and requests fixes, then what is the point of developing an application? Why release beta's and updates? Any feedback is good feedback. You can improve upon feedback, and the feedback is coming from the players themselves, a big bonus.

stownage 17 May 2011, 21:19
thats true. feedback is the most important thing and now that ppl know that "bug" they can react of this, means not sending me money while playing ET :D

SLAC is good, just needs a bit more publicity.
