shep48 June 23, 2005 Share shep48 Member June 23, 2005 VAC Myths There are some things people often blame or think is true about VAC. Most are false. Below are facts, not Myths ... Winamp or HLamp (a plugin for winamp) DO NOT get you banned. Using buy scripts, or any other cfg file script will NOT get you banned. Custom skins, sounds, etc. WILL NOT get you banned. However some custom skin packs also have cheats installed. Be VERY careful about what you are installing before you install it. Microsoft Windows Service Patch 2 won't get you banned. VAC does NOT scan your hard drive VAC does not exist to make Valve money, but rather because players said they wanted Valve to do something about cheaters. People on servers or server admins can't get you banned on all VAC enabled servers. Modified versions of maps (clear walls, etc.) do NOT get you banned. If you can connect to a server with a map, it's fine. The "AKS WARRIOR" friendslist phenomenon was not responsible for any "false bans" either, it was merely a DB problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScubaDan June 24, 2005 Share ScubaDan Member June 24, 2005 Does this mean that we'll soon see VAC on the GC servers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VooDooPC June 24, 2005 Share VooDooPC Member June 24, 2005 Modified versions of maps (clear walls, etc.) do NOT get you banned. If you can connect to a server with a map, it's fine. How do you modify a map without getting the error "Your map differs from the servers", i wonder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CowboyFromHell`X June 24, 2005 Share CowboyFromHell`X Member June 24, 2005 (edited) You can change the textures around. It's on a site but I don't think I can post the site here due to swearing issues. They changed some of the dust, dust2 textures around and you can still play.

campkillyorself June 24, 2005 Share campkillyorself Member June 24, 2005 Since I used to be an avid skin downloader, I decided to delete all of my CS CS:S files and redownload it. I'm afraid of these hidden hacks that people have put in their skins, so just to be safe, I did this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CowboyFromHell`X June 24, 2005 Share CowboyFromHell`X Member June 24, 2005 I didn't know they could put hacks in skins now. I just knew they could in those packs that change everything about the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
