Dark Souls 2 looks stunning with these 2 mods I am using!

I am sorry I don't know how to post the screenshots here, but here is a link. It completely changes the game no only in terms of looks and feel, but gameplay as well, the Gutter for example is pretty much pitch black. It is impossible to navigate without any light, finally the torch and light spell came in handy.

Yeah, I use them too and now it looks awsome AND DARKER! Torches are no longer useless ;D

[Rock1m1]

Yep, it makes the game much harder. :)

DS2 just got VAC enabled, prepare to get banned :/

[Rock1m1]

DS2 had VAC enabled for a long time now, I am really not scared out of it, only paranoid people are. The ENB injector mods won't get you banned, no one got banned for it.

Funny thing is, when I take a screenshot it is in default graphic and not what I am actually seeing when playing. :)

My "brain" knows that i wont get banned for graphics mods, but false positives have happened and will happen. And since i quite like a few VAC enabled games (DS2 Included) my paranoia will not allow me to use said mods. Which sucks...

[Rock1m1]

@doox yes, the steam capture option doesn't do the job in this case. Try something like Fraps.

That is due to post processing, think of it as a layer in Photoshop. The screenshot doesn't show the layer/s the mod has made.

@Pozidriv is right

[Rock1m1]

Also i am not seeing how something that makes your own life much more difficult counts as cheating lol.

Ever since getting falsly banned on DaS 1 for graphics mods im not using them again =/ pain in the ass to be faulted for trying to bring a game up to its potential

[Rock1m1]

In the event you get banned, can you challenge your case? No warnings no nothing?

[Bassman]

It was turned around when they realized what was happening, but it took more than a month and it was all hassle for nothing

[Pozidriv]

If only things were simple as that, VAC is a weeee bit too harsh on the banning side. There have been straight up hones and good mods for Half-Life that have caused false VAC positive bans to happen and most of these bans were graphics related.

Namely the addition of bloom effects to Team Fortress classic and others that caused a false positive. And you cant dispute those claims, all that Valve does is pretty much says "The system caught you for X, now suck it".
