      EAC is notoriously less invasive than vanguard. The repo you linked doesn’t even have a fraction of what you’d need to hide from vanguard.

      There are SO many things to hide. In theory it sounds possible, in practice just not.

      To name a few, you’d have to hide:

      • cpu jitter/latency
      • interrupt behavior
      • page table behavior
      • msr access
      • cache invalidation patterns
      • IOMMU
      • PCIe inconsistencies
      • boot sequence
      • driver timing
      • CPUID

      And so much more. It’s almost impossibly hard to hide all that. Even if you could, a tiny mistake at one point or a stealth update and you’re banned.

      In comparison, avoiding vanguard and cheating on a legit windows machine is trivial. DMA cards are expensive but impossible to detect. DP/HDMI + mouse hooks are another impossible to detect option.

          Well they’re still able to block 99% of the “script kiddies” that just download a cheat to feel better about themselves. I feel like besides at the top 0.01%, this is by far the largest portion of cheaters.
