Build and Shoot

Actually, wallhacks, aimpots, ESP and all that is old. Like really, really old.
OpenSpades is just a client, the main component of it is Ace of Spades, which itself has been long exploited and hacked.

ace of spades is not the main component of openspades,
openspades is a total rewrite...

Well, what I mean is OpenSpades is just an alternative client for Ace of Spades, which is infested with hacks.

Understandable. Is it possible that there will be anymore updates to this stuff?

0.75 has been unsupported for about 2 years.

Lol I first thought your client got fucked up by the hacks, but it's actually just an aimbot and a wierd name. Hacks are pretty common and there are scripts which detect exagerated cases like this and automatically ban the hacker, but admins usually don't add them.

Eh, nothing new with these hacks, those hacks have been used for quite a while.
If you don't want to play with a hacker, find a different server to play on, or votekick that person.

you're using os right? then wait for os dedicated servers

Will make it worse.

Will make it worse UNLESS you put nice anticheats in it and authorisation system

Open source means it's pretty easy to make any hack you want. Existing hack detection scripts could be tricked that way. I'm not sure how effective an auth system would be, if one can make as many accounts as he wants.

True, I've heard that if you're banned you can rejoin a server with a simple change of a text file.

Well that's just not true.

And don't worry, the community anticheat has worked great so far. (By which I mean letting this place go to hell and driving away anyone capable of making cheats aka anyone with an IQ in the triple digits)

Well you don't make the anti-cheat and auth part opensource and never release it to anyone. UrbanTerror staff have issues with their auth system every two-three months, so auth system will require some attention.
The anticheat though... If you make it tricky enough, there will be little to no working cheats. I have real good ideas, of which I am not going to speak openly (except for yvt, aloha staff etc.).

Noticing in one of your recent bumps you said that you can code. Perhaps you can make some good ol' anticheat and have people stress-test it?

I've offered to make an AC multiple times. The problem is that Stack wants to do everything himself but can't. I could have an AC that detects the current hacks in a day. I could also have a working auth system in a week with some help from rakiru. We've offered, again, multiple times. But Stack has either said he's working on something or just ignored it.

Then just do an AC on yourself. The more there are, the better. BnS admins seem to be pretty inactive now since danhezee left.
PS. how would you detect accuracy hax and norecoil faster/reliably?
