21:9 aspect (Flawless Widescreen) and VAC

[FIXATOR]

Is it safe to use Flawless Widescreen to play in a full screen on 21:9 aspect monitor?

It only works if you set your desktop resolution right now to 1920x1080 otherwise it is windowed.

There is no VAC enabled, the softban system can only check save files, so yes Flawless Widescreen is safe to use.

Good to know.
I hate these lazy devs. I mean, why do not support 21:9 resolutions? ¬¬
I hope that DSIII comes with full 21:9 support.

I'm going to play DS2 with flawless widescreen.
What are the risks of being banned? Would I lose the online?
Then?

I played DS II SOTFS 147 hours and had no problems. The risk of being banned is extremely low.

I have used it for DS2 and DS2 SOTFS and have no bans. I can say that it is very safe.

VAC was only wrongfully applied during the launch of the original DS2 version released in 2014 for a week or two. This game is not VAC-secured, but it does use it's own softban system. However, it only cares for impossible stats and changing gameplay-related parameters. It cannot detect changes made to graphics or through the graphic API, like what Flawless Widescreen is doing, so it's 100% safe to use.
