[[File:Gameplay-Valve Anti-Cheat.png|right]] '''Valve Anti-Cheat''' is an anti-cheat system created by the [[Valve Corporation]] for the digital platform [[Steam]]. The system was first rolled out on [[Counter-Strike]] in 2002. The system scans for modified files and will ban the player if it finds any modifications. The player may then be banned from all VAC-secured servers. This ban will be permanent and may place additional restrictions on the player's account. This ban could happen at any point, even weeks after the initial detection. Banned users are unable to join the ''Steam Translation Server'' project, nor are they able to acquire a refund for the game, even if the other requirements are met. ==List of VAC-enabled games== :''This is an incomplete list, please see [http://store.steampowered.com/search/?category2=8 this link] for a complete list.''<!-- **This is an automatically generated query. If a game has just been given the correct semantic attributes, please wait for the page to update via the MediaWiki job queue.** --> {{#cargo_query:table=Games|where=Features HOLDS LIKE "Valve Anti-Cheat%"|format=ul}} [[Category:Digital Services]]
