How do the current exploits work? Do they players get Studio mode, an insert box, or what? I'm going to try and make a patch(if possible.)

You can't patch it yourself, it's loaded client sided.

Create a plugin that gives you some sort of GUI that gives you administrative powers in a place, put it in your plugins folder.

Create a new place and, without putting anything in it, save it as "ClientSetsToolbox.rbxl".

Go in the file menu. Click the button that is below the "Print Setup..." button.

Go in a game with the studio's browser.

omg hax, the GUI is still there and you can kill players and ban them and do lots of things111!!!

@Julien, They fixed that if you join a game through your web browser. Now roblox opens a second game window to prevent that. <3

@belial52

Well, it works with the ROBLOX browser, however.

Once they patch it, we'll be left with the DLL injection and probably some more isolated exploits.. and then they'll find another exploit and it'll go mainstream and we'll have wait again for a patch... ugh.

I doubt they can patch .dll injections.

Not for ever, that is.

Well clearly we are experimenting with stuff to stop exploiters. The first step of the process is basically to shield ourselves from these annoying pests. Once we are sure the shield is working and these pests are not able to crack that shield we can open this to you guys and everyone has fun(Except for the annoying pests, but I mean, who cares about them right?)

So, serverside nooby script hax is gone. Client-side stuff exists-yes. But will be taken action on. In the meantime I had fun logging the wannabe's in my Battleship game.

Not only did he win _the_ game, he even won many of them at once!

You mean, you put scripts in there to log the exploiters? That doesn't sound roblox-ish to me..

I think he just took note of who he caught exploiting.

There are also other ways of doing it, e.g. dll injections.

PLEASE tell me you are not talking about logging exploiters with dll injections. He is talking about one place. You dll inject into your client. Not a server.

While saying dll injection may sound cool and the fact that finding them online is a trivial process may elude you, its still a client side hax. And we will try our best to stop it. But annoying pests in their nests have access to what is put in their machine. So this may not go away completely, but will effectively be sandboxed.

Well couldn't you store most of the data to server and the client would just receive the data from the server?

Well, su8, its all the same thing. At the end of the day we should stop trusting the client. But that also restricts the game creators on ROBLOX from doing a lot of stuff that they currently take for granted. Exploiting is like a plague. This is why we can't have nice things.
