Just opened LFS, clicked "Join Specific Host" like normal and just after i connected i get kicked and see "TheRealSidewayz - CPW". Tried joining again and i got "Host Refused Connection" even after restarting LFS. I am not using any mods or anything (apart from texture) and i was able to join other hosts including that "[CLC] CityLifeCrew Cruise" Server.
Can I get unbanned please and I try to join again?
Hello,
Having checked our logs, I can confirm you have been banned by a CPW (Cheat Protection Warning).
A CPW ban is issued by LFS automatically and could be due to one of the following reasons:
- A tweak or any other miscellaneous cheat/hack,
- A .vob mod,
- Any other recently installed program on your computer (e.g. a game overlay) which LFS could identify as an abnormality with the game.
Keeping the above in mind, our advice is to:
- Uninstall/delete any program which could've caused this CPW (depends on the program, only a reboot may be necessary),
- Restart your computer after the above point,
- Check for any viruses which could have triggered the CPW.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Please keep in mind the server rule below:
Server Rules Wrote:1.11. Do not use any modifications that alter the physics of LFS (eg collision mesh, performance).
We will not manually unban you. You will have to wait until the CPW ban naturally ends - they typically last for only 12 hours. In very rare cases, you
may receive the CPW erroneously. Make sure you reboot your PC before trying to re-join when the ban ends.
Thank you.
