3rd party software and Vac bans

I’m thinking about using Dixper for stream interactions but I’m hesitant. Since it has access to overlays and possibly input control, I want to be 100% sure:

Can using Dixper in any game lead to a VAC ban or any other bans?

Well, first off you can only get VAC banned in games that use the VAC anti-cheat. Otherwise it is just a game ban.

Your best be would be to ask in that games forum or in their Discord if they have one.
You will get better luck in those places.

I have watched many streamers that use it playing games with Battleye, EAC, VAC and Ricochet anti-cheats. I have not seen any of them banned for using it.

A program like Bitbot though, that's another story with Battleye being mad.

Something to keep in mind that things can change. What is safe to use today might not be tomorrow.
