[CSGO][COD4] Bug Fixes – 20th February 2017

This week’s fixes encompass both our Advantage Tool for Counter Strike Global Offensive, and our Advantage Tool for Call of Duty 4. Details on both updates are found below.

The Advantage Tool for CSGO

Your feedback since the release of our CSGO Hack for Mac has been extremely valuable, and we’re working hard on both fixes and improvements. The following are the changes released this week, applicable to the CSGO version of our Advantage Tool. These changes are available as of version 2.2.24 of our CSGO Hack for Mac:

Fixes

  • Corrected a recursion in the game detection engine, normally triggered to check if the game is already running after the tool is launched.
  • Corrected null or vague warning alerts, such as the null #TC7 error thrown after the game received an update and our recalibration process isn’t yet complete.
    • This should now display a more detailed and helpful message if something doesn’t go as expected.
    • Note that with each CSGO update we have to recalibrate our services. This is still a manual process, but we’re working to streamline and automate this in future.
  • Corrected a miscalibration issue affecting some Macs, resulting in partially functioning or nonfunctioning features.

Enhancements

  • Improved performance and reduced CPU usage for TriggerBot, when TriggerBot is enabled but CAPS lock isn’t enabled.
  • Slight performance tuning in overall TriggerBot engine.

New Settings

  • Exposed a setting to control whether TriggerBot requires CAPS lock to be enabled.
    • Some users have reported dislike for the CAPS lock requirement, this feature allows users to disable it.
    • This CAPS lock requirement for the TriggerBot is enabled by default as it gives a visual view over whether the TriggerBot is currently enabled, as well as an intuitive quick-toggle when it isn’t needed.

The Advantage Tool for COD4

The following are the changes released this week, applicable to the Call of Duty 4 version of our Advantage Tool. These are bundled into version 2.2.9 of our COD4 Hack for Mac. Many under-the-hood APIs have been updated for improved performance and reliability. Thank you to the users who have reported some of the issues addressed in this release.

Fixes

  • Corrected a miscalibration issue affecting some Macs, resulting in partially functioning or nonfunctioning features.
  • Corrected no-recoil and anti-spread not working as expected on some machines.
  • Fixed rare crashes during activation process.
  • Fixed rare crashes when attempting to use the Easy Account Generator, after the tool entered an unexpected state.
  • Fixed rare crash of Call of Duty 4, after tool attempts to incorrectly calibrate against the game.
  • Fixed rare crash when attempting to use in-app contact form after game has closed.

Enhancements

  • Updated deprecated under-the-hood APIs.
  • Updated networking APIs used for server communications during calibration process.
  • Improved performance while tool was left in background for longer periods of time, while playing.

Error “(null) (Error: TC#7)” is thrown when the CSGO Advantage Tool detects CSGO

We’re aware of the CSGO Advantage Tool occasionally displaying the following error after it detects CSGO: “(null) (Error: TC#7)”.

If you see error TC#7 it means that CSGO has been updated and our recalibration is not yet complete. The calibration process is not yet fully automated when a new version of CSGO is released for Mac.

We’re working to automate this process in future, although note that the calibration process can take some time depending on the time needed to download the update and if any issues arise during the recalibration on our side. If this error continues to display after several minutes have passed, please contact us for more information.

Error TC#7 is supposed to display a more meaningful message, so that it’s clear why the error has happened, and we will correct this in the next release to hopefully alleviate any confusion arising from this.

Upgrades Complete – Member Services – Feb-3, 2017

We’re pleased to announce that our upgrades were a success.

We will continue closely monitoring our old and new servers to ensure there are no remaining issues. As of today, our services are now faster and more reliable than ever!

Thank you for the continued support,

Scheduled Maintenance – Member Services – Feb-2, 2017 – 8:00 PM – 8:00 AM (UTC)

As part of our investment to provide the best service we can to our customers, we will performing a server migration and upgrade over the next 12 hours, starting at 8:00 PM UTC.

This migration is not expected to cause any downtime to our services. Our primary websites will remain online and responsive, including our contact forms & live chat:

Our support email will remain active without any downtime. The following services will remain functional, but may briefly display incorrect warnings during usage, due to delayed server synchronization:

  • The download forms on our websites, listed above, may briefly display incorrect warnings.
  • Our CSGO & COD4 Advantage Tools may briefly display incorrect warnings.
  • The Automatic Update functionality may briefly fail to recognize new updates available in our tools.
  • The order processing system may experience a slight delay in the automated processing of orders.

We have taken measures to ensure all our services have been thoroughly tested before starting, and will continue to do so during the upgrade process to ensure minimal risk of downtime for our services. Once the upgrade is complete the services we provide to our paying customers will be faster and more reliable than ever.

If you are affected by this migration or notice anything unusual, please contact us either via email, using the support form, or via live chat. Any issues experienced by this migration are temporary and can be corrected via manual intervention if needed. Likewise, if you have any questions or concerns, please contact us and we’ll be happy to assist.

We thank you for your patience and support!

Your MGH Team

Edit: Correction – migration begins at 8PM UTC, not 7.
