Why hook legitimate overlay DLLs instead of the game's own DX11 swapchain:
Anti-cheat scans often inspect the game's IDXGISwapChain::Present VTable address. If the pointer points outside dxgi.dll, it flags the memory page.
Overlay Hijack Technique:
- Target Discord (
DiscordHook64.dll) or NVIDIA GeForce Experience (GfeSDK.dll). - Hook the overlay's internal rendering callback function.
- Draw your ImGui overlay elements directly inside their backbuffer draw queue.
The game's native DXGI VTables remain 100% pristine and unmodified!
