About Anti-Cheat and Mods

[h2]About Anti-Cheat and Mods[/h2][p][/p][p]Steam Deck & Linux[/p][p]The team is preparing a fix for this temporary issue in the coming days.[/p][p][/p][p]Anti-Cheat[/p][p]Anti-cheat is not designed to block players or their accounts—it exists to prevent game hacking. Of course, if you try to run the game with Cheat Engine enabled, you won’t be able to play, but your account won’t be banned. You simply won’t be able to launch the game until you close Cheat Engine. Don’t fear anti-cheat—it’s not your enemy. It protects you in multiplayer and poses no threat to honest players.[/p][p][/p][p]Mods[/p][p]As we’ve already announced, visual mods such as texture replacements, car model swaps (FBX), and ReShade presets are not penalized in our game. Regarding broken mods—we’ve improved mod support in update 1.7.0 by changing the car mesh storage system. This means mod creators won’t have to update their mods after version 1.7.0.[/p][p][/p][p]ReShade[/p][p]Unfortunately, ReShade support is currently suspended, but the team is actively looking into bringing it back. For now, we recommend removing ReShade, as it may cause serious graphical artifacts or game crashes.[/p]
