I'm watching a spirit tutorial they said to change sound settings in

%localappdata%\DeadByDaylight\Saved\Config\WindowsClient

can I get in trouble for this…?

    Tampering with game files in any way is at your own risk.

    Same as with using reshade and icon packs.

    No, that's literally the same file that the ingame settings change to save your new settings when you use the actual settings menu. If all you're doing is changing numbers up or down in there or setting things to true or false, you'll be just fine.

    I've changed values there to customize my graphics settings and never gotten any ban at all. In fact I think quite lame that the game doesn't have a proper graphics settings screen yet where you can tweak things like textures, shadows, viewmodels, shaders, or even audio quality like you probably want to do separately, and that you have to go into some obscure settings file to begin with.

    So that file is safe to modify.
