I don't see why this kind of anti cheat shouldn't be implemented natively, to be honest. Just skim through the GTA SA directory, or even better, give server owners the possibility to choose wether the directories of connecting players should be scanned. You could also let the connecting player choose to accept or deny the scan of his directory. A natively implemented AC would be more trusted than an external one...

This is not possible since hackers can spoof all kind of data sent to the server from the client. (Directory scanning)

Implementing a client-sided anti cheat script is practically same too. First of all isn't WhiteTiger's program open source? This allows hackers to easily release programs that will give false data to the server. Even If it is not open source, the hackers still will find a way to spoof it. The only option is, adding the program to the SA-MP client package, then keep updating it at a regular basis. However, Kalcor has no reason to trust Whitetiger (or the rest of the community) to do such a thing.
