Cheat Engine and Anti-Cheat

[CaoLex]

BattleEye launcher refusing to load if Cheat Engine INSTALLED on PC. Yes, right, not activelly running, but INSTALLED. It's not the only game that have same problem, but not all games that have BattleEye protection behave like this, and all that do... I do not play.

I mean, it's fine if the anti-cheat protection monitors if it's launched, but many of the users of Cheat Engine don't use it outside of single-player games, because it's highly unetical if other people is suffer because of unhonest play, and in some cases it's the only option for battling bugs in the games where support abandoned. And personaly I see nothing wrong for using speed-hack to shorten sometimes overly long animations in TRPG and RPG games. And unistall-install CE every time you want to play this game? It's too much of the bother. Besides, people who cheat in the online games perhaps have something other than memory editor... Especially if most of the math are on server side.

I mean, you can't have VAC ban for simple having Cheat Engine installed, most of the anti-cheat defences will not react on it too, and how I already said, even most BattleEye versions allow it too. Why I don't have problem with Arma 3 but having with this game? Do you use very outdated version?

P.S. And apparently there is bypasses anyway...

P.P.S. And judging by logs, it's reacting not on CE itself, but on drivers of one of it's debuggers.

It doesn't matter, the game is abandoned by the developers and the players. In other words - it's dead.

Cheat Engine is just the name, it allows you to inject code in programs, be it a game or a calulator or whatever. Just because it does that, doesn't make it bad. Guns aren't evil, the people that use them for ill purposes are evil.
