well im not mad im just confused lol i thought they had to have clips or actual proof of cheating i was not using any type of cheats and it literally made textures blurry thats it
I understand that. To be honest, I almost did a similar thing in L4D2 one time. I wanted to play the game in third person alone, but quickly found out that doing that would have resulted in a VAC ban.

Even if you're intentions were pure, something like that makes sense as to why you'd get banned for it. Again, you could just download textures that makes your enemies stand out in bright red or remove shadow textures so everything just stands out a lot more - removing the element of fair play.

Sorry, but your ban is definitely permanent.

Of course you could get banned for that. Downloading something that changes the look of the game to gain an advantage will get you banned. Removing practically all clutter outside of the in-game settings will get you banned.

Overwatch has no way of seeing what textures you you see on your screen. Overwatch is where people watch your demo and decide if you cheating beyond any reason of doubt. So there's no way they could see what texture you downloaded on YOUR pc view.

VAC detected modified files and banned you.

because OW and VAC and completely separate entities. OW deals with people who are doing suspiciously good, VAC bans people for 3rd party programs. IE you didnt need to be inspected since you were using a texture pack

It's a competitive shooter. If we all had the option to just dumb down the graphics/download textures to make the enemy stand out like a sore thumb then it'd be a much more casual game.
