Heaven Media, publisher of leading websites for enthusiast PC hardware, gaming and esports, today announced the acquisition of EnemyDown, including its propriety X-Ray Anti-Cheat software.
EnemyDown launched seven years ago and made its name as one of the first sites to facilitate online tournaments and leagues.
Today EnemyDown supports titles ranging from popular console titles such as Fifa 2009 to some of the biggest games in esports, such as Counter-Strike.
The Punkbuster Kick is being looked at and there'll be an update after US Thanksgiving Holiday Week Please read this entire news post - it is VERY IMPORTANT as you might run into problems with the new build!
This afternoon a new update to X-ray Anti-Cheat 1.5 has been pushed. Next time you load it, an update will be offered (saying No will result in the program exiting). If the auto-update fails - or the... [Read More]
A lot of you will have heard rumours that XAC is going down, this was only a possibility, but everything has been sorted and XAC will not be going down.
This means my post below "FAO: League Admins" is now null and void and everyone can stop PM'ing me regarding this post.
I'm also stepping down as XAC admin, so probably won't be visiting this site again any time soon.
If your league uses XAC and you're reading this, I need to speak to Admins from all the leagues.
It is rather important that you get in touch with me ASAP, so please send me a PM on here and I'll get back to you.
This is for Admins only, so please when you PM me link me to the league you work for and to the staff page with your name on showing you work for that league.
Currently the storage cluster that X-ray Gaming uses is being upgraded. When this completes (tomorrow morning), screenshots will re-sync again and you'll see them on your profiles.
Please do not post support questions about this, we know about it already - and now, you do too.
It appears to becomming a common trend for people to report their own screenshots, with no reason what so ever. This is wasting my time. So here's a few things to remember when reporting screenshots.
You should only report your own screenshots when:
- It shows your desktop
- It shows personal information
- It shows the console with rcon password
All three of these scenarios should be reported with the reason 'Please delete'
All good things have to come to an end at some point and it comes with great sadness that on the 16th June, 2009 the UTAN server will be switched off permanently.
UTAN supports Unreal Tournament 2004. A game which is now, as given by the title, rather dated. The number of users of UTAN has, as expected, dwindled over time and it is no longer viable.
So that's that. If you have the addon installed, it will no longer work beyond the 16th, so it is recommended that you... [Read More]
This afternoon a new update to X-ray Anti-Cheat 1.5 has been pushed. Next time you load it, an update will be offered (saying No will result in the program exiting). If the auto-update fails, you may need to download again from the Downloads page. There was a bug in the previous auto-updater that has now been fixed and it may still effect a small number of users.
A couple of fixes have gone in as an attempt to fix the login issues. We're still unable to reproduce it locally so... [Read More]
UPDATE: Pushed 1.5.489 up this morning as the crash problem changed for the worse and some people got a crash on exit as well. Hopefully that's all sorted now.

Well this is a hot topic at the moment. A number of cheats claim to 'bypass' X-ray Anti-Cheat. In fact one high profile one is charging extra just to have their coveted X-ray Anti-Cheat Bypass!
Save your money.
You might be annoyed with the frequency of the recent updates, the problems with Anti-Virus/Punkbuster (that are now mostly resolved for the majority of users), but unfortunately we have to release updates regularly to catch and deal with these so-called... [Read More]
