Pure Faction is a third party Red Faction anti-cheat, anti-hack, and anti-glitch patch coded entirely in ASM by TrotSkie. It also provides extra security for both servers and clients as well as fixing the infamous [[Pure Faction#nVidia 8 Series|nVidia 8 Series bug]].

==Blocked Cheats==
The latest Pure Faction release (Version 3) blocks most cheats available publicly for the game.
 
Specifics:
*[[cheats#Wallhacks|Wallhacks]]: Pure Faction blocks all wallhacks.
*[[cheats#Colorbots|Colorbots]]: Pure Faction blocks all colorbots due to the color cycling [[rail driver|rail]] scanner.
*[[cheats#Aimbots|Aimbots]]: There is only one aimbot known to work with Red Faction 1.2, and it is not public. Pure Faction blocks it regardless.
*[[cheats#Table Cheats|Table Cheats]]: Pure Faction blocks all Table Cheats by making Red Faction load default game tables before any modified ones.
*[[cheats#Myth Trainer|Myth Trainer]]: Pure Faction blocks Myth Trainer by resisting the hook that the trainer must use. The trainer will not even pick up Pure Faction as Red Faction.
*Cheat Engine: Pure Faction blocks Cheat Engine exported executables by resisting the hook that they must use in the same way that it blocks Myth.
*[[cheats#Brightskins|Brightskins]]: Pure Faction blocks brightskins by always loading default game skins before any modified ones.
 
==Blocked Glitches==
*[[glitch#Baton Glitch|Baton Glitch]]: Pure Faction blocks the infamous baton glitch by not allowing people to switch weapons while firing.
*[[glitch#Reload Skip Glitch|Reload Skip Glitch]]: Pure Faction blocks the Reload Skip Glitch by disallowing [[fast-switching]].
*[[glitch#Team Green Glitch|Green Team Glitch]]: Pure Faction blocks the Green Team Glitch by ignoring the "team'" console command.
 
==Blocked Hacks==
While most of the hacks that Pure blocks will not be discussed in detail for obvious reasons, a very basic outline of some of the kind of hacks that Pure Faction blocks is as follows:
*Hosting a server with an excessively long name - Crashes clients when they ping it at the serverlist
*Excessively long map name - Crashes clients
*Very long name when joining server - Server crashes
*Sending certain packets when they shouldn't be sent - Depending on the circumstance, can crash the server/client
 
==nVidia 8 Series==
Pure Faction fixes the issue with Red Faction and nVidia 8 series video cards. Without Pure Faction, 8 series users suffer from strange graphical glitches in the game. With Pure Faction, TrotSkie has developed the only known fix for this anomaly.
