  • NF Fixer should be banned.

NF Fixer is pretty much an "AA macro" which tolerates AA spamming, while only changing angles, making players fire at planes easier.

In the words of a co-forumer, you shouldn't use a hotdog chewing machine in order to win.

You should chew the hotdog yourself.

As matter of fact no... I don't and I'm in favor of these suggestion... I think NF-fixer should be part of the game... but I was just pointing out that accusing every one that uses NF Fixer as a cheater is the best way to drive people away from the suggestion... as I said earlier... so sad... take your time to read next time and try to argue without offending players... that should work....

want it more easy?

something that shoots for you its a macro, and macros are illegal
even if they just shoot, or just roll sailors or just move you so you dont get retreated

IF SDE decides to implement it IN THE GAME its ok, that way anyone can easy access to him

NF Fixer 'macros' or 'simulates' (In the words of the readme file of the program itself) keystrokes, specifically the spacebar. Navyfield allows only a set amount of macros for text chat. No controls are authorized to be 'macroed' or 'simulated' without prior consent of SDEnternet. 'Macroing' is expressly forbidden. Macros span from sailor rollers to keystroke simulation, they're still macros and are treated as such, an unauthorized third party program. (A)

I think this is a very good point, Who has the final say? SDE or EULA.

Shall we delve into Socrates?
some Augmented philosophy phrases

I commit an action because it is "EULA"
What is "EULA"?
"EULA" is that which the "SDE" loves.
Is why does "SDE" love "EULA"?

Is...
the "SDE" love "EULA" things because they are "EULA" ?
the "SDE" love "EULA" things because they are "SDE"-loved?

Does SDE have the right to decide on their own decisions?
Or does SDE have to bow to the Law that is "imposed" upon them?

No, it does not shoot for you. It repeats the spacebar as long as you have it held down. NF Fixer automates no task, unless you consider getting carpal tunnel from hitting the spacebar once every 0.4 second to spam those KM AA guns a 'task'. There is a fundamental difference between a sailor rolling macro, a bot that shoots and moves for you and a computer program that repeats the spacebar when you have it held down. It's hardly even automating anything, considering that you have to have the spacebar held down for NF Fixer to do anything.




@Blackgunner: Write like a human please.




And if NF Fixer did get banned, it would be completely possible to do the same thing by using a different program, or a programmable keyboard, or even a (undetectable) hardware modification. All you accomplish by banning NF Fixer is making it a tiny bit harder for people to do that.

My above post summed up into a short paragraph:

NF Fixer is a third party program.

Navyfield does not allow third party programs.

It isn't 'banned', it's 'ILLEGAL'. As in law enforcement involvement.

A macro is a macro, regardless of it's function. Rolling sailors or repeating a spacebar. A macro is still within itself, a macro.

-=-

I'll therefore assume that any posts made after this that are encouraging or defending the use of NF Fixer are those of 'criminals' that have violated the End User License Agreement which they agreed upon by creating an account here at Navyfield.

Essentially, I'm considering this topic 'closed with prejudice'.

that is shooting for you
you are completly mixing the meaning of shooting and aiming wich are not the same thing
if it press spacebar for you, it shoots for you
no program is unhackeable, making the thing harder its the point

this is a skill based game, the guy with more skill should take the planes, not the guy with some random program shooting from him while hes free to aim and dont even stop shooting in the process even if he is a skill-less AA leecher

I recently explored some keyboards/OS programming loops can be made to repeat the same rapid fire command merely by holding down the key. This process now makes the program obsolete. In addition, these processes are so simple they do not even require NF to even be installed. Thus no information sniffing, no server checking, no sound modifications, no third party software data searching. It performs only one single function no more than that. Sure there is some lag as it works through the series of generated "space" commands, but there's no lag time between each signal. Hell it even works with Microsoft Office programs.

I simply hold down a key, like the space-bar, and it continues to fire, regardless of turning stationary. Essentially I'm telling the program to fire, and it does so, no multiple commands. Just holding down fire.

Are you going to request a ban on these keyboards/OS? Since the only real issue here is the rapid fire press issue?

I'm beginning to think you people don't even understand how most programs work. Let alone the difference between how the fixer was supposed to work, what it does now, and the wording in EULA. If I remember right, the original programmer discontinued the functions at the request of SDE or otherwise responsible parties, and is no longer "supported" (updated) by the programmer.

Actually, using NF fixer to help with the not being able to aim while shooting bug could fall under exploiting errors in design/program bugs to obtain a competitive advantage over players. For example:

Player A does not use NF fixer, and so cannot shoot while aiming.

Player B uses NF fixer, so can shoot while aiming

Player B therefore has a competitive advantage over Player A because of the design flaw.
