Asus dumps "See-through" drivers

Posted by alpha at 23:25 18/5/2001.

Today, over at www.decursor.be, it was revealed that Asus will be putting an end to the "See-through" cheating drivers. Here's the scoop:

"Asus Taiwan marketing manager Kent Chien e-mailed today the company will delete the See-Through cheating code in their future drivers, as a result of the protests from the gaming community. But maybe this move comes too late, because the company already released the drivers for their GeForce 3 video card. As long as this driver works with current DirectX versions, it can be used to cheat. Removing the code in future versions will not stop current Asus buyers from cheating. Even the cheating detection by checking the Windows registry (as Asus proposes) can be disabled by a skilled programmer. I think Asus realised too late what were the consequences of their newest driver "features":

Thank god Asus finally had enough sense to stop producing these drivers. Unfortunately though, it looks as though they might have stopped it too late...Check out the whole story here.
