Trace?

[the common tetrapod]

how do I stop a trace system?

[Doryan]

To stop the trace, you need the tool "Tracekill.exe" which will be available towards the end of the game, just after finishing all the quests of CSEC.

If you have difficulty hacking with an active trace, I can give you a solution that I use, and that works for me:

- Start by scanning the computer you want to hack (be using the "probe" command or by clicking on "probe the system")
- You will have the list of ports and the number of ports needed for the "PortHack" tool to work. Start by hacking the port you want, a little tip, you can start by typing the command, the first letter for example, then use the tab key to complete the command, it will serve you when the trace will be fast.
- Then when you hacker enough port, use "PortHack"
- When "PortHack" has finished its work, click on "Connection" and use the identifiers which is at the bottom.
- When you connect, disconnect, then return to the computer you just hacked, and you will not have the trace.

Of course, these steps should be done as quickly as possible, you can train to do this as quickly as possible.

or be a cheating prick and use security tracer from the beginning :P

Didn't they patch security tracer? You can't use it on active traces now.

There is no Tracekill in Cheater's Stash, I still check before giving a solution to do without.

We can only use it when we finish the hack because it monopolizes all the RAM. But with my technical it avoids waiting for PortHack to close to launch TraceKIll.

Oh, by that I mean the security tracer you get at the beginning. That doesn't take all the ram up.

The security tracer does not do the same thing as the Tracekill, it just triggers a trace, it seems to me.

..and that's why I asked if they patched it. Thanks.

I'm sorry, but I did not understand the sentence or you were explaining that he had patched it.

I use Google Translate to translate, because I was French, I have difficulties to understand English, and I have trouble understanding these English / French translations.

But now I understand, and I apologize for not having understood it from the beginning.

You can still use it to avoid fast traces. This is because a trace can be ran on your system or the system you're connected to, but not on both at once. This means that you can run a trace on your system, open a port or two, use the kill command to stop the trace, then repeat until you have admin access.

No, no. The devs patched security tracer, because it just has an error on the program when you try to run it on an active trace.

If you run it during a server-side trace, yes.

[the common tetrapod]

sooo all in all, you can't stop it unless you go end game or cheat?

[Doryan]

We can do a hack with an active trace, this is not a problem

[the common tetrapod]

It doesn't hurt to ask.

[Doryan]

I did not say otherwise
