This game is now VAC secured so I'm not sure if continued use of Flawless Widescreen will work. Hayden will have to chime in


What do you mean is now VAC? It wasn't before? I ask, because I've been using the fix for coop and invasions just fine so far.

Yes, as of today Valve has enabled VAC for Dark Soul 2 - it's now listed on the store page as well.

more info here: http://www.reddit.com/r/DarkSouls2/comm ... uld_avoid/

(for the record I'm risking it and still using FWS and GeDoSaTo)

I've updated the plugin to add a warning that you will need to tick before proceeding, prior to today the game was not VAC secured supposidly - atleast the store did not make mention of it.

In theory, offline mode is completely safe.

Online mode is a definite grey area, the HUD fix changes the executable integrity in memory - there is no other way to do it... my understanding is that VAC only detects known hacks that it has a signature for, but it's possible they implement a EXE wide consistancy check.

Another words, tread with caution - I feel I've taken all the steps I can take to make you aware of the risk, the assessment of that risk is up to you.

Guys,

So the game was working fine yesterday, meaning that eyefinity was working fine. However after today's game update thru steam now I have the two side monitors black. I have tried:
Changing resolutions
Unplugging them
Turning on GPU scaling on CCC and nothing....any Ideas? thanks a lot.

No problem. Hopefully VAC doesn't ban for it. If it does, be sure to post here :D.

I'm personally waiting a few weeks before going back to multiscreen =(

I know this might be extra work, but has anyone tried letting Valve know (if such a thing is possible) about the fix to get an approval from them? This way, VAC can somehow white list flawless widescreen.

Valve tends to whitelist apps on their own. There is no process for formally submitting something to be whitelisted.
