Valve Anti Cheat (VAC) Is now enabled on DayZ SA.

[basger]

So yup. It is now officially enabled, or so it says on steam. Watch out.

[furiouswai]

Yup. I guess this is Dean's response to all the rage posts about hacking on the official forums. He says there is more anticheat coming too:
DayZ Hacks already happening - Page 12 - General Discussion - DayZ Forums

Prob bullshit. Rocket just wants to save his ass. Anyway thanks for telling us. but I think its shit. but Wel'll see in some days who's gonna be banned.

How long to wait till VAC banned status, if I used Cheat engine and some scripts today and according to Rocket post VAC was enabled already?
Cause as I remember status is changing after week-month from detection, I just want to know when I need to buy a new account for DayZ SA xD

[jjhend]

eh, Im pretty sure its enabled. I Don't think steam would bluff by adding it in the store.

[knucklehead1]

stop panicking, just dont use your main accounts when cheating (that would be plain retarded, lol).

It can take from a hour to a month Delayed bans

Rocket tells Valve to add it. Valve aint checking it so he can be bluffing

Why the hell should you have 2 SA accounts?-,- Its not worth it imo

lol, then go ahead and use cheats on your account with 200+ games on it. all I'm saying is that no one should do that. if youre going to cheat just create a new account and buy the game on there.

I've heard about a way to bypass VAC bans before. But u lose everything. Thats what I heard on the TF2 Section's But what the fuck can u lose on SA anyway? ;D

If you've used Cheat Engine or a similar publicly known memory editor software after VAC has been enabled. Expect a ban in a little under a week. It's pretty obvious that you shouldn't be using CE or any similar memory editors on VAC enabled games.

Whoever that is reassuring them that they are safe is pretty much an idiot in my book. VAC doesn't fuck around


EDIT: However, IF the rumors about VAC not going live on DayZ are true, then you still are in the clear up until the point that it does go live. Furthermore, if you wondering when it will go live my best guess would be in the next 24-72 hours (1-3 days) at MOST. Stop using CE by then if you're really feeling risky.


Be safe, don't get banned.

I had a few friends go through memory. There still is no green light on weather or not VAC is enabled. Sadly, because of this, I wont be using Scripts anymore. I will stick to memory cheats from now on since they are simply the least detected.

But I DID find this

if you notice they state


This means that a DAYZ ban will not affect your TF2 or COD:GHOSTS games

[CyaBB]

Thats incorrect. I hacked in MW2 and im also banned im MW3 because of MW2
