Welcome to the -ACI- PBSS trolling guide.
Question - What is trolling?
Answer - Actively searching for screenshots
of people using visual cheats.
Question - What is a PBSS?
A PBSS is a screenshots returned by
PunkBuster software installed on a gaming server.
This guide will help you identify visual
cheats and the graphic errors that are not cheats. We will also show
you how to search for these screenshots with or without special
software.
The menu above is split into 3 columns, left
column is finding shots, middle column is what to look for and the
right column is how to submit the suspected screenshot.
This is a break down of what a PBSS looks like, and what each item
means. 
- Alpha - is the snap shot of the game being played, this is
what the player should be seeing.
- Beta
- This is in two parts, 1340653 and 216.180.236.207:8777
- The first part is the serial number for the screenshot.
- The second part is the servers IP address and port
number.
- Gamma
- This is in two parts, *5d3ff3eefe9ecec6377e60851d96d1a7*
and [CLS]_-_AiRcON-_ , these will different for individual
players.
- The first part is the player GUID
- The second part is the players name.
- Delta - this is the attempted capture size of 729 pixels
wide by 395 pixels high with the screenshot being centered on
50% of the width and 50% of the height. You can set the capture
area to any size you wish, the bigger the better. The x and y
coordinates can also be set to any number between 0 and 100, 50%
x 50% is the middle of the players screen.
- Epsilon - this is the resulting capture size and sample
rate. PBSS's are limited in size, so the actual captured area is
smaller than the one requested in this case. The sample rate
tells you what number of pixels have been captured, the higher
the number the more screen captured but the less quality.
- Sample rate 1 captures every pixel so it is the most
detailed, but also the smallest area.
- Sample rate 2 ( the most common ) captures every other
pixel.
- Sample rate 4 captures every fourth pixel, this will
give you the largest amount of screen area captured but will
also be the lowest quality.
