Yikes, they should make that warning more prominent. Like a big yellow banner across the top of the landing page.
If you trip VAC for example, you're banned from online play for all of your VAC-enabled Steam games, IIRC. I imagine programs like this that do all sorts of weird Windows API plumbing/injection are pretty likely to look anomalous to even the most basic anti-cheat.
- judge2020 6y agoNo, you're only banned from playing the game that VAC detected a cheat in, unless it's a half-life or source based game where it bans you from related games using the same engine. http://www.vacbanned.com/static/information http://www.vacbanned.com/static/information Vac is also only triggered if you try to sign into VAC-secured servers and VAC detects a cheat. In the unlikely event that something like this is ever classified as a cheat (unlikely since valve manually detects and adds cheats to the blacklist), simply running a local server would not trigger a VAC ban.
