@Raklor_R They can actually scan the entire pc as some other games to trying to detect the programs used. They also can add usb port detections matched with said programs on the computer. There are quite a lot ways to do it a lot games use this method. I use this method on one the games i dev. I would not mind my pc being full scanned for programs or connected devices cause I got nothing to hide.

This could only detect Xim users etc. They also can log in game key presses and run a query on your in game hot keys to see if they match any when in gun fight or going to a gun fight. This would how ever detect people using their macros blended into to regular game play. So to say no anti cheat software does not exist is not accurate I created in for game i own and run. My players have no problem of me scanning their system for programs i know that are used to cheat or exploit a mechanic.

@E9ine_AC sure... you know that Xim and all other just emulate the input from the controller or M/K and don't need there own driver?
If it would be so easy to detect like you said, why are here still more than enough what use it and are undetected?

So you are a Game Developer now... what company and what games?
Your own anti cheat software is use Ring 0 drivers?

@Raklor_R I do mmo i only have around thousand players not a lot but they are content. I run a custom version of a game named Everquest as I was on their guide team for over 18 years and did exploit stuff with them during sony owning it testing things finding bugs and such. I dont need a Anti cheat because I can block the programs from allowing you to log in directly into the client. The coding structure and the engine its ran on are quite different but this is how i handle it. You allow them to log in with program running it then kicks you from logging in and sends me a log of trying to log in with the cheat programs loaded. If loaded while in game same thing it kicks you from game sends me a log reporting they tried to load it. Doing things directly into the client is a easier way then using a anti cheat that isnt working imo.

  @E9ine_AC so you are not a developer and run only a modded version of Everquest as a admin/modder... did you developed the script or did you just add it to your client?
  
  Just because you run a Gameserver, for a Game what is 17 years old, what has a modder community, doesn't make you a Game Developer/IT Security Analysts. IF it would be so easy to block cheaters nowerdays like you said, why is it still such a problem for Anti Cheat Companies?

  @E9ine_AC actually they‘ve been tried so hard to against new cheats ,
  I don't know if they've changed the anti cheating team they're working with， or something , The effect of anti cheating is much better than before ,
  There are still a large number of people who buy cheating software, and there are money benefits in the process of promoting the improvement of cheating programs
  what we need to do is tell them he new features of the new cheating program we found in the game .Let them know the latest cheating function and better detect cheaters

    Yeah i lost a Game to DDOS cheater, the whole server couldn't play (rubber band or DC) but this Team had no problems.
    i made a video to prove it. (and before someone say "maybe you have a * internet", nope i also made a few speedtest's and there was no problem. Germany 16-20ms, Belgium 50-60ms).
