It's too bad I don't know how to do anything useful with it. I hope it doesn't spawn a new race of aimbots to deal with.

ET has Punkbuster. Quake1 and Quake2 did not. Anti-cheat was developed for those games, and now cheaters really aren't running rampant. Ouroboro is over-reacting. A lot.

Also, the engine has changed quite a bit the last 6 years, and SD do not have to release their source. When the Doom source came out, Hexen/Heretic engine source came out at a later date, if they did at all-- I can't remember at the moment.

actually you'd be surprised at the ammount of people who use (not develop just use) cheats... but i doubt that this will release a huge wave, yes some may beable to bypass cheat detection for a while, but they'll get caught

Definitely. Players and leagues alike need to keep their senses sharpened for a few weeks, as I'm sure there will be SOME backlash, however for the most part I'm not concerned.

i'm sure engine code played no role in this, right?

(i trust posting that link won't be letting any cats out of any bags at this point)

anyway, whatever. if what bani and reyalp have told me is correct, and i believe it to be, hackers will only be able to use this on non-pb servers. and since i wouldn't touch those servers with a ten foot pole anyway, i'll try and relax a bit

iirc the quake bots existed long before the release of the source code because the network protocol was trivial to reverse engineer. and as pointed out before, there's no pb.
