Does VAC banning for Autohotkey.exe (.ahk)? [question]

[Gikurtz]

Can I use the "autohotkey" program in games(for example: counter strike global offensive) with anti-cheat (for example: VAC, or battleye, punkbuster etc.).

Autohotkey uses the (.ahk) file and the process [ autohotkey.exe ] in Windows. The reason for using this program in all games and windows is a terrible scroll on my mouse (I use script for the acceleration of wheel sensitivity on the mouse and "mwheeldown, mwheelup" spam for bhop in cs go)

Can an anti-cheat ban me if i use this scripts in this program (autohotkey)


Банят ли анти-читы за прогу Autohotkey?

You'd probably get banned by OW, not VAC.

If it's a question about if a process or program will trigger a VAC ban, it's probably been posted here before. Feel free to check these out, if you wish :

That is, where it concerns VAC.

OW is it the OverWatch? Yes?

Yes.

You can't get banned for bunny hopping (it can be done without a script) or autohotkey.

since .ahk scripts can be made to read/write memory addresses i would argue otherwise

Remember, OP, it's not just about the modification that you are thinking of using.

It's also about where you are getting that modification.

Use caution when installing any game modifications like scripts or custom skins, and only download custom content from trusted sources. Hackers may maliciously disguise their cheats to cause others to get banned.

If you are using something that even resembles cheating, people WILL report you whether you're using a cheat or not. Enough people do that, get a review, and if the OW people believe that something's amiss, there's your overwatch ban.

Better to just *not use those things at all* and git gud.
