Is there a definitive list of whitelisted 3rd party software?

Question pretty much says it all.

I'm interested in injecting software such as Reshade.me to customize visuals in-game, but I can't find any definitive list from EAC or DBD that provides information on what software is whitelisted for use without risk of a ban (although I'm aware many people claim it is).

If something like this doesn't exist, then I really think it should to make things clearer to the community on what game file modifications are permitted and what aren't.

    I think Reshade was whitelisted back in time but I'm not sure, maybe you can ask bhvr directly. It's not actually 3rd ptsw which modify game files, so it's not like hacking.

    I think they will answer something like they not responsible for EAC decisions, so you can use it at your own risk.

    EAC has no whitelist on their website. I'd suggest emailing them to ask about it - prolly gotta look around in their form though and see what fits... But as of now, things like ReShade are a use at your own risk kind of thing.

    Thanks for all the responses. I managed to find an old link to what was once a site on EAC with a whitelist (which is the one maaadinsomniac mentioned I think), but it's been completely removed now so it's no use.

    I won't bother emailing them since it's not a major deal. People seem to have used it for a while now from what I can see without getting banned, and I can't see how it would break any of the game rules, so I'll use it at my own risk.

    Thanks again!
