I recently set up 2 gaming VMs using libvirt KVM with GPU passthrough on my Ubuntu install so me and my girlfriend can use the same computer to play games when she comes over. I played a couple games of deathmatch and casual on this setup on cs2 and today I discovered I have been banned. This never caused any problems before on cs:go so I figured it’s fine as this isn’t specifically prohibited by valve either as far as I know.
I wonder how this could impact people who were to use microVM’s in Asahi. Currently, gaming under Asahi is a pain because of the page size problem but microVM’s can help.
Not at all. This is more likely a known ban reason given Valve, VAC and Source do not care about VMs as long as you don’t intentionally hide the kvm state. (You will get soft-kicked until you un-hide it, not banned)
AMD’s “Anti Lag+” bullshit probably triggered the ban. If true, it will be reversed in no time.
