Are skin changers and cosmetic unlockers allowed in WARDOGS?
Closed thread Closed by archiveHonest question: are skin changers treated differently from gameplay cheats in WARDOGS?
I understand why a tool that affects aiming or shows hidden player information would be considered cheating. Cosmetics seem like a different category, but changing local files or unlocking things the game hasn't granted you could still violate the rules.
I don't want to assume that "cosmetic only" means permitted. What's the actual distinction here?

Replies are closedThe official enforcement policy warns against modified clients and services offering cosmetic unlocks. So I'd read that before assuming a skin changer is allowed.
"Doesn't change damage" and "allowed by the developer" aren't the same thing.
Exactly. Something can be purely visual from your perspective and still involve unauthorized modification or unlocking.
So the safest thing is to distinguish official customization options from third-party tools that modify or unlock game content?
Yep. Use the game's supported customization features unless the developer explicitly authorizes something else.
I'd rather have fewer skins than lose access to the game over something cosmetic. That's an extremely bad trade lol.
