Dungeon Defenders: Awakened Message Board  

those of you who got banned could you please post what features that you used on the trainer? Also can you specify if its a Game Ban or a VAC Ban (they are different)? Thank you

VAC ban disallows multi player only for this game, so it would be a game ban I suppose.. Single player should still be playable in some form. I don't have the game, but its possible those banned did so because they used the trainer in MP and not strictly SP, but its possible VAC affects SP as well.

yea, i almost wonder if they entered a public game by mistake (its very easy to forget to toggle it to private). i have also been doing some research on vac bans in general and they stated that if you put the -insecure flag in the steam launch options it would not use a vac secured server as vac bans can happen in other games even if playing in single player mode. its also possible that they used the level option to bump their level up, or their stats were in a different state than they should have been for that level something the game devs were able to query and easily identify which is why i asked for their feedback as to the trainer features they were using to help narrow down maybe what was allowing the game devs to find the trainers use in offline.

i thought about just disconnecting my internet while playing if necessary but without more information it might not be necessary or avoidable anyways.

This game does not have offline mode yet, going into a private lobby presumably still has you online, connected to their servers and thus can be affected by the developers anticheat even when only playing by yourself.

The game does not have VAC on it's store page so I am presuming anyone banned is simply game banned from this game only and not from VAC servers entirely.
