DLSS override = BAN

funkerbox

Recruit
Good evening, I need your help and I apologize for writing to you here. Please, someone release an article or news that using DLSS override leads to bans in online games.
I've had one of these and my appeal was denied, I described my problem here:
https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...override/95fd1d6c-fce5-4a27-b7f1-3e7a64780baa
There is also a request, press the button under the post - I have the same question - to attract attention
and from another people:

In general, I don't know what to do, I'm just blown away because of this to this day. I've never cheated on COD online, but I got banned because of DLSS. Moreover, it came to cold war, and I didn't even go into multiplayer, for 10 minutes only to evaluate the graphics in zombies and hello, a letter of happiness came
 
And this is the game for which I was banned, pay attention to the overlay and who exactly made the dlss substitution - the nvidia driver itself. And the same overlay can be easily included through the registry or through nvcleanstall, and there will definitely be no ban for it.

And the dumbest thing is that I had already reinstalled the drivers to clean and all the settings related to dlss were destroyed. But however, the shadowban appears and disappears, and as in this case it was already revoked, it was worth running one game and it reappeared, why...

Activision support itself is complete junk. I don't understand why this attitude towards ordinary players is for. I love the feeling of the game, especially the single-player game, just fire and top music, but. Why do they deprive me of the right to spend time in the game and relax?

Yes, I ran into a ban to some extent, and here are the very settings that will lead to it. But I'm sorry, I've been using all this for many years since I have a computer as a whole. And there have never been any problems with this, but as soon as nvidia released an update and added dlss update functionality to games, that's it, now it's a ban for it. But what is it for, exactly, if dlss is an official feature and was paid for as part of the hardware.

Or then, tell me, please, if allegedly there was a ban not for DLSS. Then for what of the above? Or maybe it's trivial because I have Windows installed on a ReFS partition? Or was the motherboard bought second-hand and banned by iron? But this is all just nonsense.

And for the especially gifted, I note that if you still get banned for nvidia profile inspector. He himself never injects anything into the game and even more so does not replace the game files. This is already done by the nvidia driver itself and why does it allow this at all? And even if the ban is not lifted, because this is already an old game - cold war, then why does the shadow ban continue to be imposed, which periodically recalls? And in general, why for the software! Your hardware ban flies in, how it is and why it is possible at all.
Not to mention the fact that there are no restrictions on the way with all this, disclaimers. Much later, of course, I found out that you can't officially do this through the supposedly nvidia app, but excuse me, why do I have to install this bloatware at all?

It is useless to write posts on reddit, they are deleted after half an hour and so many parrots will gather in the comments that it just becomes scary how much we have problems with people...
NVIDIA support is silent, it is impossible to get to activision support, as if it does not exist. For some reason, not a single hardware site still wants to release an article and video, and this problem exists and it cannot be stopped. And apparently, the incident with amd antilag a couple of years ago did not teach anyone or anything...
The worst thing I found out the other day is that the author of msi afterburner is quite an id*ot. He seriously thinks that he allegedly knows how anti-cheats work and at the same time takes advantage of the position - he promotes this with humiliation those who have this problem.
He is given arguments, news that there have already been such similar problems, but his answer is that you are confusing everything and generally misinforming. I suppose that I could have already been banned because of msi afterburner, since its author himself flew into this topic. Perhaps he messed up something in the latest version, which I have and defends in advance

Or then, tell me, please, if allegedly there was a ban not for DLSS. Then for what of the above? Or maybe it's trivial because I have Windows installed on a ReFS partition? Or was the motherboard bought second-hand and banned by iron? But this is all just nonsense.
In the add-on

And, please, do not write nonsense in response. My head is already spinning from what happened. The very essence of the problem is that NVIDIA can set people up just like me, and at the same time not agree on changes with activision

And blizzard's support hasn't shown any positive side either.

First of all, chill with the multiple posts. I've already merged a few posts.

Second of all, this is just a fan site. Has NOTHING to do with Activision or one of their subsidiaries. Microsoft owns them now.

Third of all, Ricochet Anti-cheat is the culprit of all this, not Nvidia or any of the hardware in your PC. Activision doesn't know how to recognize the hardware or software that the games use. I.E. DLSS. Ricochet THINKS DLSS is a mod.

Like I vaguely see a bunch of files regarding DLSS on your screen in post no. 6. Did you modify any of the files? That's the other part; Ricochet looks for modified hardware.

At least that's what Activision says it does, but as you'll see on YouTube, Ricochet is NOT working as "marketed." A lot of customers are angry at Activision over Ricochet. Its NOT banning users like Activision is saying.

A lot of new info have come out about Ricochet over the last 6 months since Black Ops 6. Like SBMM is A.I.

A.I. images, etc.

I mean, it sounds good that Ricochet is meant to combat cheaters, and hackers, but Ricochet has a bias. Its protecting Little Timmy, as CoDFather describes them. It's protecting cheaters. It's protecting content creators, too. So Ricochet is banned false positives, essentially. That means you, too.
 
No, no files I didn't touch, just used nvidia profile inspector for dlss override, just because it allowed it and no warnings were displayed. I don't even know what sbmm is.
 
I can't even get into the single-player campaign now.
Yup, we know. You need internet to get "on" campaign. You need a legitimate "key" to log into Call of Duty. That disc, that download... talks to the servers. Your license has to be recognized and approved. That "key" needs to "handshake" successfully with the server. This is Activision's DRM going across the whole disc/download. Microsoft won't reverse this, because THEY support DRM.
 
Getting back to this topic, playing without a discrete videocard, only with an intel uhd - I get shadowban all the same in black ops 6/warzone. But the other day I logged in through another blizzard account and no shadow or permanent ban appeared in cold war. Which confirms getting a ban due to dlss override.

And at the same time through his account logged into WWII, black ops 3, black ops 4 and no bans. But with black ops 4 found an interesting moment, without running with administrator rights - can not create player files, and if you run from the admin all okay. I also came across a group like this and a form for a class action lawsuit.

We found and proved it turns out for the 3rd time only true that the ban comes in Cold War because of the file system. If Windows 24h2 is installed on ReFS, then after startup you will get a shadow ban and then a permanent ban. The test bench and recording of getting the ban on the stream was with my friends and I:

So far the video hasn't gotten a permanent ban yet as it takes some time to do so, but the shadow one is already there without a reason as such for it.

Three of our affected accounts. And if anything was for DLSS as I originally thought, it's not relevant. I apologize to anyone I may have inadvertently misled.
This is a pretty serious issue, as the next version of Windows will most likely already default to ReFS. And for the time this file system has existed, for some reason the crooked programmers are not prepared for it.
And after all this, I personally demand that this company apologize publicly for this and unban our accounts with our friends, as well as reconsider in general all false bans of innocent players or it will just lead to disaster.
