I'm not an expert, but I'm pretty sure that renaming doesn't prevent EAC from recognising the program lolTheBean said:@DwightsLifeMatters said:
What do you mean with "No tools to detect this"? EAC is constantly checking which programs are open and what is stored in RAM or not?
Would be tough to be consistent.
Simply renaming the program would be the easiest way to bypass EAC.
It is a open sourced JAVA app aswell which is going to make it even tougher.
There's a bunch of techniques used in detecting hacks. Stuff like asking the OS for open handles to it's memory region and monitoring access to it. Or asking for access to the hardware accelerated rendering pipeline used by the game and scanning for certain rendering methods, like a common wall hack approach to just make player objects drawn with a box around them directly on the screen, ignoring depth calculations.
That's why you can't just smack together some hack or use CheatEngine or something stupid like that. You are effectively trying to find a way to access the game's data and execution/rendering while the OS is willing to tattle on every little process accessing it, and all the obvious stuff is already being watched.
An analogy: Whenever someone finds a new way in, anti-cheats start covering it. It's like hiring a guard to cover an entrance.
Of course, you have to let some people in. Steam and Discord overlay would like to work. But they're willing to walk through the front door and show their ID. They're confirmable safe stuff.
Not everyone has a fancy verified ID, though, so for programs like MLGA, anti-cheats watch where they go and what they do. If they spot anything fishy, they blow up the building, taking your game down with it and handing you a ban.
Generally speaking, stuff like MLGA is already detectable by them. They just know it's not dangerous so they don't care. The devs have previously given it their blessing, so that implies any extra information it gives about your lobby (like the Killer's identity) isn't considered cheating by their standards. So EAC has no reason to bother.
