Talla 84 Posted April 22, 2021 (edited) @xiphos @MonkaS I was part of those xmas 2016 false Punkbuster bans. FairFight did not advertise my ban. It was a silo PunkBuster error. I remember digging and seeing how the PB package for APB was never properly configured in the game files. I really doubt PunkBuster would do any kind of ESP tracking. It monitors the memory for interfering processes, not player inputs according to context. Edited April 22, 2021 by Talla Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
