Draw on screen

How do I draw on top of a game's window, so that it's hardly detectable?
I currently use

Code:

FindWindow
GetDC
FillRect

Are these detectable by the game?
How do you draw on screen?

You use a marker.

Detectable on WHAT?
I still can't understand.
FindWindow is part of user32.dll > win32 api.
Anyway, on .net you need to do a p/invoke for it.

Thanks for the replies

You mean, like picking a pen and just drawing the ESP by hand directly on my screen?

I mean detectable by the game's anti-cheat, e.g. VAC.
And I'm not on .NET, I use C++

That functions have nothing to do with anti-cheat detecting ...

But when the anti-cheat detects that my hack draws on top of the game's window, it may find it suspicious and for example make a screenshot or scan my hack.

Can you post the code?

The drawing code is kind of spread throughout my code (I should rework and encapsulate it in a way) but I basically use this:

Code:

HWND hWnd = FindWindow(NULL, "<gameWnd's name>");
HDC hDC = GetDC(hWnd);

HBRUSH hBrush = CreateSolidBrush(RGB(r, g, b));
RECT rect = { x, y, x + w, y + h };
FillRect(hDC, &rect, hBrush);

Exactly. It's 100% undetectable and will never be.

FillRect(hDC, &rect, hBrush);

I'm sorry but I don't know how the "Anti-cheat" works.
You need to create a brush using that function, "indispensable".
I can only tell you a precision: when you don't need anymore the object hbrush, call deleteobject which deletes gdi objects.

Would you recommend me to use GDI or do you know better techniques?

mmm... I dunno so much "better techniques", but GDI+ is not so much hardware accelerated.

D3D or opengl or well, whatever else.

Opengl is not even a library, it's a low level drawing api.
It doesn't even support networking, sound, input devices like mouse etc.
And, opengl is equivalent to direct3d; direct3d= an object oriented 3d graphics library.
I would choose OpenGl for non-microsoft platforms.
