It has come to my understanding that VAC only bans for the engine that the cheat ran under when it very clearly states that it bans from all VAC secured servers but nothing about being game or engine specific.
So now that steam community show the VAC status and the profiles can be viewed as XML, would it not be possible to create a sourcemod or metamod plugin that fetch the VAC status of joining players and ban them locally if the player is already VAC banned in goldsrc or source? Well, yes, of course it would and that would make VAC even more effective without being unreliable or unfair and the best thing of all, it will get rid of a lot of cheaters. Now I don't have any idea how to make plugins since I do not have programmer experience, but if anyone thinks this sounds like a good idea then please, feel free to do it or discuss it. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
