Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE) is a glitch that allows the player to cause the instruction pointer to jump to a section of memory that can be written to by the player (such as the filename, the angle and position of certain actors, controller inputs, etc).
Arbitrary code execution bugs involve injecting machine code, often at the byte-level, so they fundamentally require a deep understanding of the game and architecture internals. To find them, bugs where the game crashes or memory is corrupted are usually a great kicking-off point. Usually these are found by random community members, posted to ...
Some mods are just Config files, but I read that others contain C# code. Does this second class of mod allow arbitrary code execution? Could an unscrupulous mod developer install a virus or spyware via a mod, or is the mod system basically an airtight sandbox?
Full Arbitrary Code Execution like that isn't required for Mew, though. In Pokémon Yellow, you can follow the following steps (with thanks from ChickasaurusGL Evie's helpful video): Perform the SRAM glitch. Swap Pokémon 2 with Pokémon 10. Walk outside to Pallet Town and find Rare Candies hidden deep in the expanded items pack.
For those curious about the seemingly arbitrary number of stars in Mario 64: 120 star is equivalent to a 100% run. 70 stars is the minimum needed for a glitchless run. 16 star used to be a low % run, before someone pulled off a 1 star run, which became the new standard for a low % run until someone finally pulled off a 0% run. –
It is possible. One of the methods of account recovery is providing to the Steam support team a game key code or wallet funds code that has previously been redeemed on the account (as per here). If you redeem the code then the scammer can provide that code to Steam support, as well as proof of purchase, and gain access to your account.
Java makes it unlikely for buffer overflows leading to arbitrary code execution or similar issues to cause problems; if there was a problem then it would affect far more than just MC. The link about malicious plugins is a thing, but that's more the server owner installing arbitrary plugins that do bad stuff to that server than harming clients
@CSjunkie Yes, that would qualify as method #3. This glitch is an example of a group of glitches called "ACE" (short for arbitrary code execution), and a Mew transfered in this way is considered hacked in all communities where I've bothered to read the rules.
Firstly, the commonly used timer program LiveSplit supports automatic time splitting. It needs to be configured on a game-by-game basis via image/audio recognition or reading memory for PC games and emulated games. In the case of SMB1, auto splitters are available. Secondly, video game speedrun records are typically tracked by speedrun.com.
What is arbitrary code execution (ACE) and how does it affect speedrunning? There has been a lot of records being set in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time within the last couple of weeks or so. A lot of these records keep stating that "ACE" is the reason for this.
