You will get kicked off vac secure servers because you .cache folder doesnt match the folder further more if you try to join mm you can get temp banned

You won't be able to play MM (VAC error)

Mm or every official dedicated server of csgo
Dunno about community servers but they are also kinda same
(Correct me if I'm wrong)
Community servers are fine including faceit and esea but nothing volvo related

The answer is simply..... YES

I am proof. My main account got VAC banned for skin injection.

Replacing texture files and injecting stuff are two different things.

Any server that has sv_pure set to "1" will automatically kick you from the server while playing with modded files.

You injected a dll into the game with a detected injector and signed dll n1

Something like that. I used an injector for Starsiege: Tribes and left it running in the background with a LastHope.dll running as well and it injected it into CS:GO. It literally did nothing to my gameplay, but I was VAC'd a few hours later. Tried like hell to get it fixed, but Valve don't play :D

You can download custom skins from workshop without issues. An attempt to force their use will be banned

CS 1.6: ...
CS CZ: ...
CS Source: ...
CS GO: sKiN iNjEcTiOn

This is so stupid, in cs source if pure was set to 1, the server will just ignore the custom folder and you will be left with the default skins. But cs go? No, I will get you banned, but also don't forget to buy sprays.

P.S I personally replaced models or animations, not inclined to "Neon\Fire\Gold Weapon skin pack"

because then it means it makes skins useless thus no sales and volvo loses $$$

No "you will be banned". They are bought on Community Market, no where else can you obtain them.
