Since tools like DXVK (and ReShade on Windows) can allow people to see through walls, I would expect Valve to ban them, too. Even if they are not used in any blatantly obvious way, e.g. by shooting someone you shouldn't be able to see, they still give the cheating player a large advantage by letting them know where on the map the enemies are.
- jyrkesh 7y agoI'd expect the same, especially given Valve's multiplayer games run natively on Linux ;) To be honest, other than having better communication on the issue, I'm not sure how I'd handle this one differently than EA...
- HansHamster 7y agoExcept that Valve develops and promotes Proton for running Windows games on Linux, which also uses DXVK and other tools.
- fxtentacle 7y agoMaybe Valve will then whitelist the DXVK binaries that they themselves provide. But compiling DXVK from source will surely result in a ban because there's just no way to check what has or hasn't been added to the drivers.
