What is UAC2?
UAC2 is a client side Anti-Cheat program, one that works across all games and provides the community with the power to find and shame cheaters in all multiplayer games, packaged in is the unparrelled security of players screenshots to ensure data remains as accurate as possible.
Why UAC2 over X-Ray?
X-ray anti cheat from S1 of SnD and the Trial Ladder for DOM didn't manage to catch anyone in almost 6 months but one cheater, this player was also a hack macker and was testing his bypass. UAC2 has caught more hackers/cheaters since its release on MW2 then any other anitcheat software, other then vac. It was known to be very easily by passable and had minimal game / end user support. This is why we are tightening up the anti-cheat measures with UAC2. In the future we may also liaise with the developers to get them to customize and tweak it for our gaming needs.
How UAC2 Works?
This system is expandable using PRO commands, their functions are always described in this manual which will be included in every installation of UAC2 and updated when new PRO command will be available. Detection methods are updated from our side (our development team). Even by request, so please feel free to contact us.
First of all UAC scans all active applications (and inactive when specified in PRO functions). And looks for every running dynamic link library (DLL) files. These files are analyzed and compared with the definition file, when cheat is detected, this information is shown on the screen and in the scan info's. Also this information is sent to UAC2 main web page where is stored and shown to other users. Screens taken by UAC2 can be viewed only in UAC2 – Screens section. Files are compressed and encrypted so fake screens are out of the question. UAC2 also contains fake screen detector and does not allow to upload any fake screens so the screen can't be replaced or deleted.
Backwards Detection! UAC2 has ability to detect cheats even inside old screens where no cheat was detected before (old definition file) , so every time screen is "shown" in the Screens section , the definitions from actual DEF file check for presence of any cheat. If cheat is detected, a message will appear and will flag the screen +1 as cheater screen.

61984
Once match ID is inserted click next and finish and you will get the following screen, fire up MW2
The 1st screen shot will be done in 6 seconds after enabled. All other shots will be random (maximaly in 5 min interval)! Icons and tray bar will be hidden to respect privacy.
You must hit upload as soon as your game is finished, you will have 48hrs to produce screenshots or you and your team may face a forfit. If an admin asks for your links or has to go searching cause you didn't put your ID in your profile you and your team will face a ban or forfit at the choice of the admins.
Linking UAC ID to CG Profile:
How do I find my User ID?
Open your UAC2 and press "Play". On the upper left corner you can see your loginname. The ID is the number infront of it (e.g.: "0007 / jamesbond". Click in this area and choose "Copy user ID to clipboard".
You will find in your uac2 profile a unique number like this : 8785
That id is SyK3's all you have to do now is put your own UAC2 ID to your CG profile under the UAC ID profile.
Teams will now be able to play in confidence knowing that cheaters will be busted through screenshot and process checks as UAC2 picks up on players more often then Xray. Be sure to to link your UAC ID in your profile or do not play the match.
Further configuration with Windows 7 & Vista:
To prevent UAC2 from not taking screen shots the following needs to be done in MW2 & UAC2.exe
MW2 Configuration:
In MW2 do the following (this has to be done):
Options -> Video -> Advanced Video and set Anti-Aliasing to "Off".
Okay out of it and apply the changes and close MW2.
Note: If you have set your multi player config to read only you will need to revert it back to normal and make the change first.
UAC2.EXE Configuration:
Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\DExUS\UAC2
Locate UAC2.exe (right click on it) Properties -> Comparability Tab
Tick the following check boxes(as per link below):
- Disable Visual Themes
- Disable Desktop Composition
- Run this Program as Administrator

You will now need to run UAC2.exe then Open MW2.
Using UAC2:
- Launch UAC2
- Login to UAC2 with your credentials
- Click on Play
- Select COD_MW2
- Insert your Match ID
- Start MW2 when Prompted
You should now hear a countdown timer, once the countdown timer finishes UAC2 is working away in the background.
- Once match finshes close MW2 and click "Upload"
I suggest all teams make sure players have their UAC ID is linked to the CG profile and that they do not have black screens, if we find them in players packs of screens we will put a 1 week game ban on them to remind them to fix it. This is your first and final warning for all players, if you don't make sure your screens are fine before your war don't play.
