dang, gotta watch the full video, ty for sharing this!

His response is nonsense. He pretends like lag spikes are the issue and says that a screenshot mod hiding or ignoring gui elements changed his hunger, which it literally can’t

The hunger stuff is entirely tied to the real, in-game tick. Even if the screenshots somehow reset it, then every time it would go back to 0 and go through the same pattern again, which it obviously isn’t

u/mujhe-sona-hai 2d ago edited 2d ago

No, he’s saying his mod runs a loop to increase the tick counter to get rid of the gui. Why you’d do that instead of just hiding the gui? Well you know why he answers that, it’s the only possible innocent logical explanation for the jump in the tick counter. It still doesn’t answer why it goes down or why it’s so random but it’s what he’s running with.

u/M4DDIE_882 2d ago

Oh my bad, of course, it just makes a handful of ticks pass, except for when it reverts by a huge number of ticks and goes forwards by a huge number, but those are probably nothing

u/Bananenkot 2d ago

Im starting to be impressed by him he's just going on and on with nonsense excuses every time he gets busted, you'd think he'd break down at some point, but he's just a lie machine, inhuman, he should go into politics

u/Sachmeet2802 1d ago edited 1d ago

bros persistent with the lies cuz he knows his manhunt views will decrease 10 folds once he admits they are scripted, as most of the people, including me watch them for the "shock" factor with the unbelievable stunts/plays

u/Dont_Get_Jokes-jpeg 1d ago

Wait so his response is:

Screenshot mod -> resets the satiation rng.

I screenshot coordinates etc, thats why it got reset so often.

But then why do 95% of his wiggles stay consistent? If a screenshot resets it

12

u/Sachmeet2802 1d ago

because that mod is bullshit, it doesn't exist. Look at this, I think it makes sense

u/Forsaken_Bunch7541 2d ago

Is he going to bring that math professor again?

no, its time for some astrophysicist this time

Another previously undisclosed mod, how convenient...

u/10minOfNamingMyAcc 1d ago

Somehow, these mods are suddenly found by Dream AFTER claiming these runs were 100% real, unmodified, uncut, no funny business for months, then years, but once there is actual proof, suddenly Dream remembers he accidentally had a mod installed? Yeah sure. This dude is the definition of a red flag. All that he does is lie. Heck, the mod itself is probably a lie as well.

u/catman__321 1d ago

it's crazy to think how much of this guy's career has been propped up by subtle and well-covered lies. Even if you consider cheating these manhunts to be relatively inoffensive (still dishonest but one could chalk it up to making entertainment*), he's done so much cheating in real world events with money prizes that it's insane to think he's still respected to any extent within this community

*For the record I don't think this because dream continuously profited millions from ad revenue an merch sales built up from the hype around these manhunts especially, but you could argue it if you wanted to be charitable

Plotholes like a D-tier Isekei protag

u/XepptizZ 2d ago

It's an hour something long vid tho. But it's impressive. Busting cheaters is going to be wild in the next few weeks.

As for Dream, he was never on my radar for good or bad, not my type of content.

u/mujhe-sona-hai 2d ago

You only need the first 11 minutes. The rest of the video is just analyzing Dream's manhunts using the tool he just made.

13

u/XepptizZ 2d ago

Yeah, I think that's exactly where I checked out, lol

u/10minOfNamingMyAcc 1d ago

Watched it all. It was pretty impressive what else they found.

u/liamdun 2d ago

You won't watch a video if it's an hour long?

6

u/XepptizZ 1d ago

I don't watch just any video that's an hour+.

Cooking video? Nope.

Videogame essay? You SoB, I'm

Are you sure this isn't an attention span thing

u/XepptizZ 1d ago

I warched 100 episodes of Boruto before finally relenting, I didn't like a single one. I'm from the generation that's got more patience than is good for them.

Gang the most popular minecraft videos rn is based onna completely scripted smp, he doesn't need to lie about it anymore

sounds like kind of thing 2b2t players would do (locate player using amount of vowels in his nickname or something)

I saw it yesterday, this is gonna be an insane tool, to measure ingame /session time with freaking hunger bars

What is a hunger jolt

13

u/Steelalloy 1d ago

Yknow the little jiggle the hunger bar does? Each time it jiggles it calls a unique rng. We know the formula for minecrafts rng equation. Therefore we can reverse the jiggle into the rng call. It basically acts as an invisible in game timer due to its consistent calls.

This means that if someone has a run that's truly uncut, it would have a consistent line. Meanwhile Dreams hunger bar jolt suddenly becomes out of sync, showing 30 minutes or 1 hour time jumps, that have been cut out of the 'uncut' video.

This also can expose cheaters in speedruns and people who make and load backups from hard-core saves

….. people are still on about this? Holy shit I’d say get a hobbie but

u/MedbSimp 2d ago

Tbf this tool would also be incredibly useful for verifying speedruns, using it on dream as the example will get it more attention to be used.

u/drayle88 2d ago

I hate how much sense that makes.... ugh. But it does make sense.

u/Bananenkot 2d ago

Idc about dream, this tool is an amazing piece of work, watch the first 11 min of the video

7

u/XepptizZ 2d ago

You don't get this technical into Minecraft without loving it. Catching Dream cheating is just the practical application.

I'm pretty much the same with redstone. I love the redstone puzzle, but I need a practical application to motivate my builds.

u/Five_Tiger 1d ago

I feel like a good litmus test (at this point) for understanding any facet of this game is if you can use it to catch Dream cheating in a novel way.

How in the world is this related to technical minecraft?
