      That sounds VERY unlikely. I’m gonna need a source for that (with vanguard) or I’m calling bullshit

          EAC is notoriously less invasive than vanguard. The repo you linked doesn’t even have a fraction of what you’d need to hide from vanguard.

          There are SO many things to hide. In theory it sounds possible, in practice just not.

          To name a few, you’d have to hide:

          • cpu jitter/latency
          • interrupt behavior
          • page table behavior
          • msr access
          • cache invalidation patterns
          • IOMMU
          • PCIe inconsistencies
          • boot sequence
          • driver timing
          • CPUID

          And so much more. It’s almost impossibly hard to hide all that. Even if you could, a tiny mistake at one point or a stealth update and you’re banned.

          In comparison, avoiding vanguard and cheating on a legit windows machine is trivial. DMA cards are expensive but impossible to detect. DP/HDMI + mouse hooks are another impossible to detect option.

              Well they’re still able to block 99% of the “script kiddies” that just download a cheat to feel better about themselves. I feel like besides at the top 0.01%, this is by far the largest portion of cheaters.
