VAC + HLamp = Ban?!?!

Featured Replies

Uh, yea, been hearing a lot of this recently from folks on the server, converts from cstrike who've been banned from the game until 2008.For the new VAC (Valve Anti-Cheat - I think that's it) system, HLamp is included among those things that would be considered cheats. Why, I dunno.Anyhow, I would like to request that TA -doesn't- become a VAC secure server. I like playing my music while I'm killing people. :LOL:
Well I guess we may start seeing a lot more people on the server....that is a good thing. You are right though if that is what is banning them then they should fix it. From what I have been reading though the new VAC is catching cheats that the current version of CD is not....scratches my head and wonders....
i am the guy thats banned till 2008.....from DOD servers with VAC.......i have not cheated on any halflife games...or anything....except starcraft in single player....that game is hard......well to me....well :evil: im just mad that they banned me......but il be spending more time playing FA
I think it will ban you if you have any other programs that run simotaniously (needed to use a big word 8) ) to alter HL in any way, than it may ban you, but this is my opinion...
Flipster what sever were you playing on when it happened ?I was on a server and I kept killing a player, he said to me that I was cheating, the next thing I knew I was banned from all VAC serversIf an immature admin does not like you !! bang Your Banned !!and there is no way to appeal ... or is there ??RegardsNS
i was playing on neophytes seattle cali - realism i help to admin there........one day i wanted to play a little dod so i tried to get into the server. it gave me a message but it sent me back to the main hl screen thing......i used hlsw on it. i tried to get in.......it said that i was banned for cheating and was banned from all VAC secure servers. so ya thats it....and im banned until 7-2-2008 i dont think i played DOD ont he second but im banned so ya....oh ya PLEASE TA DONT USE VAC PLEASE
yes, plz dont. i like hl. i like music. so of corse i like hlamp.
I know why this is. hlamp probably hooks into HL and therefore VAC or HLGaurd detecting a hook will block you from playing. OGC hook is a common hack in CS that hooks into HL's memory space. Hook cheats arecommon and are seriously enforced. Most anti-cheat software probably thinks that HLAMP is a cheat.
Disk2, the creator of HLamp is currently working with Valve in order to get all of this cleared up so HLamp works right, until then, don't use HLamp on a VAC supported server
