Looks like CreamAPI is not affected. Looks like a Paradox games fan’s worst nightmare.
VAC bans are only for cheating in games, you shouldn’t get one. Can’t say the same about getting your account locked though, but Valve usually doesn’t do stuff like that
Agreed. The only time I was suspended was because I filed a charge back for an incomplete, buggy game that was sold as finished. It took so long to even get running that I was just over the refund time limit and they refused to make an exception. There was some verbiage about being banned if I continued to do charge backs. I just stopped using Steam.
You cannot get VAC’ed from a game that doesnt have VAC. I know this because at one time I tried to get an experimental Steam account to get restricted by the most games out there. (I got 7 VAC Bans and 43 Game Bans on said account). Game bans disable certain features within a certain game. VAC only works based on the game it was on (except the whole Source/GoldSrc group bans, which I consider as a single ban).
What you could be referring to could be account bans can be issued based on fraudulent activity on the account. I assume this would cause these sorts of bans.
Though I would typically need to write code that injects the game just right to trigger the anticheat; if this causes game bans this could make getting future bans a lot easier for said account
An API that unlocks DLC? That sounds like… wait what community is this? (looks around)
Is that a wooden IP address? Nice eye patch by the way. Cheers matey!
Streisand effect too: hadn’t heard of this until now. Git downloads immediately get flagged as Trojans tho
Interesting. Any idea why this is happening to SmokeAPI but not cream?
