I have just beaten the game playing online with another person. I had VAC server off as a precaution and he joined me so I was like the host. The trainer does work online but just like Borderlands, only some of the options work. Infinite health, stamina, fury, and instant fury don't work if you're playing with another person even as host. Infinite durability works. All other options I did not try online because I did not need to use them. So if anyone can those other options to see if they work that would help.

How do I turn off vac? sry for the question, but I really can't figure it out >.< also if I play offline with no internet connection I have to turn it off anyway or it's safe?


Ps: I know that if you add money offline and then go online with other player you can't get banned, but is the same even if I do with the experience?

Hope someone can answer me! Thanks for your help

To turn VAC off, go to Options from the main menu (not while you're playing the game, the very first menu that comes up after the logos) and you'll see the option for VAC and Single Player under Online/Internet. Money transfers online, not sure about experience, but my character still has all the set skills.
You're okay if playing offline with the trainer.

CHU's trainers are not designed for any multiplayer mode (vs, co-op, etc) and are often intentionally designed to break that functionality. Please disable multiplayer when using the trainer.

I played a joinable game (VAC off) and forgot about the trainer. As soon as sb joins you, some of the data goes from clientside to serverside and the cheats are turned off automatically because the addresses change. But don't take any chances with VAC, I'd also recommend a restart of the game without the trainer before turning VAC back on.

I'd recommend being extremely careful when doing anything other then playing Single-Player with VAC off. There's rumors I've heard that turning VAC off only lets you host servers with VAC disabled so that people who were VAC banned can still join you, yet VAC will still scan for things.

Like I said, that's only a rumor I've heard. It might not be true. But playing Single-Player with the VAC option turned off should let you use trainers and such.

To be honest, I don't know why they included VAC for SINGLE-PLAYER.

So pretty much the only safe thing to do would be to turn off VAC, load up on cash, exit game + trainer, relaunch game with VAC back on?

This sucks because I wanted to add cash but not at the risk of getting my account vac'd...

Hi guys,

i hadn't even seen the option till someone joined my game when i had the original trainer running, i got booted out of the gamet o my desktop about 10 seconds later. I've since disabled VAC, should know in about 10 days if im getting a VAC ban for this and i'll let you all know,

to be SAFE, turn off VAC in the options :>
