Can use of graphics injectors like Reshade, SweetFX, ENB be considered cheating?

★★ Novice

I play in 720p on PC with TXAA and the image is quite blurry, makes spotting people at great distances very hard. I thought if I use something like Reshade with sharpen filter it could help me see. But I think the anti-cheat system Apex uses might not like it. I would like to know a definite answer to this. I love the game and don't want to get banned for nothing.

Apex is particularly sensitive to graphical overlays so ReShade etc. may cause a technical issue.

 

Thanks.

And by "may cause a technical issue." you mean it can detect a reshade overlay as a malicious hack?

Hey, if you're having trouble seeing faraway enemies try disabling volumetric lighting it helps sometimes.

Use the 3.0.6 version of ReShade, this is whitelisted by EasyAntiCheat.

@Shashankvk Bump. I need this too. Because TAA make game blurry. Without TAA game is look bad. So i make better visual and minimal lost fps with ReShade.
