I don't think you quite understand the concept of PB. You might be KICKED for a lack of PB communication. Anything that interrupts your link to the PB server will kick you.

If they catch anything changed on your PC with one of the PB scans, you will become permanent banned from using that game on any PB enabled servers in addition to being excommunicated from TTP.

I made a custom profile for bf2 with my old video drivers I am sure I can figure it out for the new ones... Personally I love being b/w... Its so much grittier.

This. If you want to use any Mods then you do so at your own risk.

maybe I'll fire off an email to the people at Punkbuster and DICE to see what they think.

Punkbuster says that it will result in a kick, but not a ban.

also, they said things like FXAA and SMAA injectors (which are coming with most new video cards) will also result in a kick...
kinda stupid if you ask me.

Gotta link for this?

Are using these special color correction configs a bannable offense in BF3?

I haven't installed it on my own game because there was suggestion that I could be permanently banned from BF3 for using them.

Henrik @ Punkbuster

Hello,

we cannot allow such software on PB enabled servers.

Me

So this would result in a ban?
Do FXAA or SMAA injectors cause a ban as well? It just makes the game look better.

Henrik

Hello,

I did not say it will be banned for. You will likely receive a restriction kick. We cannot allow anything to be injected into the game process for obvious reasons.

I guess I don't understand the 'obvious reasons'

He didn't say you wouldn't be banned either. Sounds more like he doesn't know... but punkbuster does not approve either way.
