Checking model replacements....
How does reguard confirm that a model you have in your data folder is identical to the one on the safe list? Maybe I missed something, but for something like a weapon model replacement or a character model replacement there wouldn't be much to check by - I guess file size, but then someone making a cheat could just download a legit file, check its file size, and rework their model until its the same file size. But you probably have some more advanced checking system....?

The method we use is a more complication checksumming.

Check out MD5Sum there is a good chance renguard uses that,
Even if it doesn't the algorithum they use probably has similar properties.

It's more complex than md5, and there are other secrets in there that I can't reveal.
