I don't have an issue playing COD4 with the steam overlay, I don't know about 
battlefield 2 because I don't have it, I have bc2, and that uses the same 
version of punkbuster as BF2 if i'm not mistaken. 

With the volume of players on steam using evenbalance's products in their 
games, I highly doubt it would still exist as an issue after 7 years. 

Reviewing threads on SPUF show that there was only one update in 2010 that 
caused this issue on BF2.

  Steam overlay result in a kick from the server in COD4 and Battlefield 2 
because of the punkbuster.

    The overlay doesn't inject anything, and using an API has nothing to do 
with injection. It's called an overlay for a reason.

    And the punkbuster comment is not true, it's been tested on all games with 
no cheat detection results, you should check out teamspeaks website, they're 
only promoting it to millions of users. 

    It's fine, not being detected because it isn't injecting.

      Your ignorant if you think Steam's overlay doesn't do injection, It also 
does API hooking ;)



      I would be careful about using it with Punkbuster enabled games, It if 
happens Overwolf uses the same technique as a cheat tool, Punkbuster will 
consider it a cheat tool and invoke a kick and/or ban.

      You're ignorant if you think the only thing VAC checks for is changes in 
.dlls or .exes, however Overworlf doesn't inject, it's just an d3d overlay, 
like the steam in-game overlay.

        Doea it modify any .dll or .exe files? If not, then it will not trigger 
it.

        Does using Overwolf in Counter-Strike 1.6 trigger a VAC ban?
