This is not a VAC issue, it's one with the STEAM authentication methods. We can be assured that VALVe are working on this as it's quite possible to do it with the Source engine powered games too.
Check the archives if you'd like more information on non-steam, I've posted quite a bit about it. =) - Bruce "Bahamut" Andrews -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of DarK Sent: Sunday, 10 October 2004 2:07 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [hlds] newish? cheat "no steam" This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I don't like bitching, but I think we have been patient enough. Can we PLEASE have a VAC update? - It's been so long! The amount of cheats is just nuts :( Over the past week i've heard about some new cheat called "no steam" that allows people to play on steam servers without steam and that generates a new STEAMid on request. I had a guy today that was boasting about how he isn't actually usnig steam and that if I banned him for his speedhack then he would be back in about 1 min... sure enough he was I know of another gaming network in Australia that is also having troubles with this cheat, they are constantly having to ban cetain players that just keep coming back with new IDs and new IPs - These people coming on each night and causing problems. Can we please get an update of why there's been no VAC updates or when there is likly to be one?
