(Solved) Caution VAC Ban for modding in Dying Light (which is not VAC protected)
I recently bought the game I finished it on Friday after that I wanted to try some Mods and other stuff. And Yesterday I realized I have a VAC Bann in Dying Light. But the weirdest thing is Dying Light is not on the official List of VAC protected Games (http://store.steampowered.com/search/?category2=8) and I can still use all the features of the game event VAC band. So what's the point this Ban and does anyone have a clue why this happened?

Are you sure, that the VAC ban is for Dying Light?
Does a friend or family member uses your account, too?
Maybe this person cheated and your account got banned for that.

Could you post the mod, that you have been using?

This one http://www.nexusmods.com/dyinglight/mods/129/? which dint work at all.
And i used Cheat Engine for cheating Items.
But it dosnt even matter because the game shoudnt be vac protected dosnt have servers.

VAC does not necessarily need server support in games to be activated.
If you cheat with cheat engine in a game, that does have multiplayer, than it is your own fault.
Even using mods, that unlock stuff, that is only meant to be for DLC owners, is a reason for a ban.

EDIT: Dying Light has VAC since about a year.

Marking you as a cheater is the point!

The point is why can people get VAC baned i a non VAC portected game

Who said, that games, who use Steamworks are not VAC protected? Dying Light is using Steamworks for Multiplayer and so it is VAC protected!
Fugri Feb 3, 2016 @ 9:13am 
but why isnt the game in the List of VAC protected games then

Why should it be? It is a multiplayer game and it uses Steamworks. Cheating in Multiplayer Games sucks. Cheating in Steamworks multiplayer games sucks and get's rewarded with a ban sign. By the way...are you sure, that you can still play online in Dying Light?
Fugri Feb 3, 2016 @ 9:20am 
Yes i can. So weres the point of an ban when im not even band anywere

Good point. You should get banned for the multiplayer part in Dying Light. Maybe the Developers don't know about the fact, that the banning doesn't work as it should.
Fugri Feb 3, 2016 @ 9:25am 
the Developers dont even now their game is vac protected or why arnt the listing feature and tanks Brujeira you are at least trying to help
