Hey, I’m karola3vax. I make server-side projects for CS2, and I’ve been fighting cheaters on community servers with two of them since 2025: CS2AC (anti-cheat) and CS2FOW (anti-wallhack). It has detected more than 10000 players as of today.

Some of you saw my earlier posts. I kept building since then, so here’s where it’s at, with real footage of detected cheaters from my own 3D replay system (kind of like a VACNET labeling portal, still WIP, so expect some weird visuals). You don’t have to trust the system, you can watch it yourself.

CS2AC (anti-cheat)

Your game is always sending info to the server: where you aim, when you shoot, what keys you press, how you move. We use that data. CS2AC has a separate module for each kind of cheat.

Nothing gets installed on your PC and nothing scans it. It all runs on the server.

When it catches someone, the server owner decides what happens: ban, kick, or just a report. Small suspicious signs never ban anyone, they only ask an admin to take a look.

The admin gets a Discord report saying what was caught and why. They also get a 3D replay of the moment, which they can watch from any angle. That’s the footage in this post.

Admins can also whitelist people, turn off modules that don’t fit their server, or use report-only mode. Nothing counts during warmup, and lag doesn’t get anyone banned by vetoing them.

Here’s every module:

COMBAT CHECKS

Aimbot: Catches a crosshair that snaps onto enemies instantly, or slides onto them too smoothly for a human hand.

Mouse-grid: A real mouse moves your crosshair in tiny fixed steps. This catches a crosshair moving in ways a mouse can’t, meaning a cheat is steering it. Review only.

Humanized R2: Catches “legit” cheats that make tiny, smooth aim corrections right before a headshot to look human. Review only. I developed it after analyzing a banned Level 10 FACEIT cheater's demo.

Aimlock: Catches a crosshair that stays stuck to an enemy as they move, even behind walls.

Triggerbot: Catches a player who is still, holds a spot and fires the exact moment an enemy steps into their crosshair, faster than anyone can react.

Silent Aim: Catches bullets that go somewhere the player wasn’t actually looking.

Inhuman Accuracy: Flags unusually high hit rates against moving enemies, counting only shots where the player’s crosshair was already close to the target.

Precision Anomaly: Catches perfect long-range headshots happening again and again.

RAGE BEHAVIOUR

https://reddit.com/link/1x8ssut/video/x5zphhvvx4wh1/player

Irregular Behavior: Catches jump shots, no-scopes and wallbang kills landing far too often to be luck. It counts the misses too.

Antiaim: Catches spinbots and fake angles, like spinning nonstop or looking where a real player can’t.

Doubletap: Catches a gun firing twice at the same moment, which it can’t do normally.

MOVEMENT CHECKS

https://reddit.com/link/1x8ssut/video/6rn2xmfvy4wh1/player

Bhop: Catches cheats jumping at the exact moment of landing, every single time.

Fast Bhop: Catches bhop cheats/scripts that keep almost full speed jump after jump. Bhop, KZ and surf servers turn it off. Faster detection compared to bhop.

Autostrafe: Catches air strafing that’s too perfect to be done by hand.

Hyperscroll: Catches spamming the jump key around every landing to always get a perfect hop.

Nulls: Catches scripts that switch between A and D in the air with perfect timing.

ENGINE CHECKS

DLL Injection: Some cheats make your game ask the server for things a normal game never needs. This catches that, without touching your PC.

Desubticking: Catches a game that removes CS2’s sub-tick timing from its movement.

Subtick Spam: Catches a game hiding extra aim movements inside its movement data.

Invalid Input: Catches edited key presses, like a key being held and not held at the same time.

Invalid CVar: Catches game settings that aren’t allowed. The player gets a private warning first so they can fix it.

Namechanger: Catches a player spamming name changes.

EVERYTHING TOGETHER

Multi-Signal: Adds up small suspicious signs from different areas, like aim, timing and movement. If enough pile up, an admin gets asked to take a look.

CS2FOW (anti-wallhack)

A wallhack doesn’t actually see through walls. Your game already knows where every enemy is, because the server keeps sending their positions, even when they’re on the other side of the map. The cheat just reads that and draws them.

CS2FOW makes the server stop sending what you can’t see. If an enemy is fully hidden from you, your game doesn’t get their real position, so the wallhack has nothing real to show.

Depending on the visibility mode of CS2FOW, it can boost client's fps by around %20.

https://reddit.com/link/1x8ssut/video/gpp8b5qnz4wh1/player

On strict mode (the default), the cheat gets a fake position instead. The wallhack shows a player walking around somewhere, but the real one is somewhere else. They’re also removed from the radar, so it blocks DMA radar cheats too. This doesn't boost FPS for client's nor worsen it.

It checks the enemy’s whole body using Valve's hitbox data paired with Masked Occlusion Culling technology. If a head, arm or gun is peeking around a corner, they count as visible, just like in the real game.

https://reddit.com/link/1x8ssut/video/8ab6jy6rz4wh1/player

Smokes are included. It follows the smoke as it grows and fades, and an HE exploding in a smoke opens the visibility, just like normal.

When it isn’t sure, it shows the enemy. It would rather let a cheater see one extra player than have a legit player die to someone invisible.

Players with high ping get enemies shown a bit earlier, so nobody pops out of nowhere.

Nothing changes for legit players. Nobody is moved on the server, so shots, hits, wallbangs and movement all work the same. Footsteps and gunshots still come from the real spot.

It works on any map, including workshop maps. The map data it needs (.bvh8) to calculate visibility is prepared automatically. It uses BVH8, AVX and Valve's PVS data to do everything. It's cheap on the server even with 32 players.

Both started out free and open source. Then people stripped my license and sold my projects as their own, I got harassed online, and my GitHub got mass-reported, which took a long time to get reinstated multiple times. So I moved development private.

Legacy versions are still open source but are outdated and not maintained.

Thanks to everyone who tested the early versions, reported bugs and supported the work. It’s the reason I kept going.

TL;DR: I made two anti-cheat projects for CS2 community servers, mostly to prove it can be done. One catches cheaters, the other makes wallhacks useless. It all runs on the server, players don't install anything, and server owners decide what happens to cheaters. Valve, If I can do this, you can too.

I know I’m getting crucified here but here it is. I bought a trash G2G account bought a Cheat sub and went blatant As fuck in premier hoping for a VAC live and guess what. I went 15 games in using scout and AWP and Deagle only on very blatant settings hs only and 5 fov aim-bot I killed trough smokes while flashed wallbangs without info and only got VAC lived when I stepped up the game and used triggerbot. I decided to use other settings like auto-wall(locking into enemies while they cross wallbangable walls like mid D2 doors) and I got my second Vac live.

I know I cheated and Im a piece of shit for doing that but all my games in that trash tier trust factor were only HVH with only few clean players stuck in that piss low trust factor including an unfortunate 3k elo Faceit 17 year old talent who is hardstuck in silver premier because of his shit trust factor and he only stacks with friends.

TLDR 99% of people claiming to be legit are straight up lying and using trigger-bot or tracing people trough walls because they cant play the games like a normal person and without even realizing they trace people and lock onto them behind walls and they have abnormal preaim. Also I hurt so many other cheaters ego I had them semi-rage against me and baited 6 cheaters into Getting a vac live in my journey

I m not gonna share my method to avoid Vac Live nor Im going to share the demos but here is the account the stats kinda normal because I did normal preaims an peeks and played a couple of totally legit games that were free of cheaters surprisingly in dark red trust factor.

https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561199847634312/

you can report the account I m just sharing it before deleting it permanently also apparently im the 3rd person who used that account according to match history.

Even tough the account is low elo because of the shitty trust factor I have found myself often in 20k+ lobbies.

One last thing. Dont believe people who post their gameplay while they were recording because many cheats can bypass capture.

I think having a dedicated spot for sticker on weapon skin would be something new and original.

I don't know how to make skins, but maybe this idea will spark someone's imagination and inspire them to think outside the box.

Yes those games are recent and no I've not been banned yet, nor gotten any sort of cooldown. Even though I've been assured by many people that scouting and awping on Dust 2 will definitely and absolutely get me banned.

I don't know if I should be happy or concerned that it could detect even closet cheating, since a lot of false positive posts are pilling in this subreddit. But it did detect a cheater, so I'm happy regardless.

Apex Hare is a fictional 1970s endurance racing team. The hare is the mascot, number 76 is the car, and the sponsor stack is the season. Cream body, aubergine lower, orange and teal stripes. The kind of decal set that peeled off a Le Mans prototype, now wrapped around an M4A4.

In the last few months I've had cheaters 90% of the games, most extremely obvious, some just wh, but enough to tell. On my main with 5000 hours was a bit better, but on my alt with under 1k was terrible, cheaters every single game.

Now, nothing on both accounts, and I mean it. Literally nothing.

Could it be the chicken update? I've heard people talk about it being some kind of trust factor, I have a chicken on both accounts.

A deep-sea anglerfish wraps the receiver and swims toward the muzzle. Its jaw opens over the magazine well, the teeth and single eye glow in cold cyan, and the lure arcs forward along the gas tube to a small bait fish on the handguard. The tail fins spread across the stock.

Coincidence? No. Haven't had such easy games in a long time. Its like everyone is... NORMAL.

I'm so sorry cluck norris...
