Performance issues of latest build
I heard about some people has performance issues since the april release of HUD.
The issue is probably caused by the new version check routine, which now queries the latest version number once in every 80-120 seconds.
I understand this is an issue, but as we already discussed, I'll do everything I can to protect HUD against malicious automation tools, like pHelper. Blame them, not me...
The consequence of these tools is that HUD no longer works if you are using proxy servers. Sorry, but again: blame the hackers.
Please note: I'll terminate the project and no longer update it when I'll feel I can't protect it, or the cost of the protection is an unusable HUD.
New BETA build against exploits:
TurboHUD 20.6.26.2 (v9.1) BETA for Diablo III 2.6.9.68722 (64 bit)
- please make a clean install
- no user-made plugins
- start it
- wait a few seconds (max 10) and see what happens
- if a text appears on the bottom, saying: "threat detected" then please send me your logs\threat_detector.txt file in a private message.
CHANGES
- this build should have no performance issues because all detection is happening on a background thread.
- stronger version check
- added memory reading detector which can cause false posities so it is important to send me your threat_detector.txt
- the usage of "\u" unicode notation in plugin files is no longer allowed
- pHelper detected TWO ways
- still no solution for chinese fuckup...

btw I am already working on a method to run the version checker on a background thread so it won't affect the user interface

Dear KillerJohn, please tell me what is pHelper? Over the past 2-3 days, I have already seen several times in the topics posted here mention of this "pHelper".
P.S. Google did not help me find an answer to this question.
Thanks in advance.

might as well use ros bot to play the game !!!! All the helpers do is automate game play "like a bot".
Pretty much uses skills at the right time for you, by using hud. KJ doesn't approve of automate game play from his program.

Some developers created tools to read data from HUD and use that data to automate user actions and this will very soon cause ban of HUD, like Blizzard is banning bots.
They just don't understand they are killing TurboHUD.
Please note: I'll definitely terminate HUD on the first banwave of HUD users. Such an idiots...

2020.06.26 19:54:48.437 20.6.26.2 suspicious code in plugin file: 'XXX\Plugins\Jack\Actors\DoorsPlugin.cs': possibly trying to hide behaviour with unicode characters.
and 5 or 6 most affected plugins
Will we have to remove all Unicode characters from now on?

Yes, sorry. Some malicious people abused those badly.
Also feel free to use the ingame textures instead. They are much more beautiful!

There is an important load on the cpu, in the menu the habitual consumption can be tripled.

please test 20.6.26.4
Performance issue will be always there. The threat detector is slow as fuck and I can't solve it.
Currently it is running on a lowest priority secondary thread, so it should not block HUD or the game or the system at all. Just use free CPU time.

I updated my plugins so they don't cause errors with unicode characters.
This version works well, I had no more exceptions or other messages, no problem except the one mentioned with cpu consumption. In previous versions it was around 25% in T16 and in this one it fluctuates a lot between 30% -40 % and sometimes it reaches 45%
