Hey guys,
Those of you making (or using) multiplayer cfg mods have probably had a problem where your game freezes, quits to the main menu, and gives an error regarding read-only dvars or cheat protection. A read-only dvar cannot be changed in-game, it must be edited in the EBOOT.BIN. Below is a list dvars that I know are read-only:
sv_cheats
//note: other sv_ dvars not tested, I know some work
All dvars that start with "party_" are read-only.
Cheat protected DVARS are a pain in the ass. They cannot be changed in-game unless they are NOP'd in the EBOOT which is extremely difficult (if not impossible for ps3). Here are the cheat protected dvars I know of:
Any dvars that start with "player_"
Any dvars that start with "perk_"
Some, if not all, dvars that start with "r_"
After these, there are dvars that don't work unless the server has cheats enabled (sv_cheats 1). All console commands (give, take, god, noclip, etc) require cheats to be enabled. So does jump_height. Basically any cool stuff requires cheats to be enabled.
Hopefully this will clear up some confusion. If you find any dvar's that are cheat-protected or read-only post them here so I can update the thread.
