Red Faction version 1.3 was a third-party, community made update. It was not an offical version released by Volition like 1.1 and 1.2. Version 1.3 was coded by [[Developers#SubZ|SubZ]], [[Developers#TrotSkie|TrotSkie]], and [[Developers#Wub|harmLE$$]].

==Purpose==
 
Version 1.3 was created to stop cheating.  It removed the [[Glitch#Team Green Glitch|green team glitch]], used extra VPP checks to stop table mods from working, and used modified class names to prevent MYTH attaching to the process.
 
==Functionality==
 
Version 1.3 allowed users to join 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 servers.  1.3 servers appeared with fading colours in the serverlist.
 
To 1.2, 1.1 and 1.0 users, 1.3 servers are shown in the server list as "[[incompatible version]]" and they are not able to join.
 
==Effectiveness==
 
While stopping the petty table mods most cheaters used, version 1.3 was unable to stop [[Cheats|triggerbots]] or [[Cheats|Click-A-Lot]].
 
==Influence==
 
For some reason, a decent percentage of the community thought that there was a hidden backdoor in 1.3.  There was no such backdoor.  The failure of 1.3 has, to a slight degree, influenced opinions about Pure Faction.
