Same issue here, game kicked me off in the middle of building. i attempted to run the easy anti cheat setup in the game files but it closes as soon as it opens. and using steam to verify the integrity of game files didnt work for me either. some people are stating in other chats that verifying the game files did fix it temporally.

[Addo_letum]

uninstalling and reinstalling the game fixed it. verifying game files fixed it the second time easy anti cheat quit working. i wish i knew a more permanent way to fix it.

i've been having the same issue and 80% of the time this happens it Blue Screens my PC (i ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hate EAC)

[Fitzgibbon]

To fix the EAC issue:
1)You first need to create a batch file in MeetYourMaker/EasyAntiCheat(I called mine setup.bat) with the text "EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup.exe install eb14dadbf5944cb188af72e945f728ed" in it.
2) In the properties for EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup.exe, set it to run in admin mode.
3)Run the batch file.
4) Turn off admin mode for the executable. You should be good to go!

How do I create a batch file?
- To create a batch file, open a text editor like Notepad and write your commands one line at a time. Save the file with a . bat extension, and you've created a batch file.

1)You first need to create a batch file in MeetYourMaker/EasyAntiCheat(I called mine setup.bat) with the text "EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup.exe install eb14dadbf5944cb188af72e945f728ed" in it.

so make the text document, put "EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup.exe install eb14dadbf5944cb188af72e945f728ed" in it
- click "Save As"
- manually type out setup.bat as the name
- and there you go

Where do I find EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup.exe?
- Navigate to the EasyAntiCheat folder in your game install directory, and locate EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup.exe within it.
2) In the properties for EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup.exe, set it to run in admin mode.

How do I set EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup.exe to run in admin mode?
- right click EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup.exe and select properties, turning on "Run in Admin mode"

3)Run the batch file- that you originally created called "setup.bat"

4) Turn off admin mode for the executable. You should be good to go!
- Right click EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup.exe and select properties again, turning off "Run in Admin mode"

I get to the point where i am supposed to run the batch file and just get a message this app cant run on your pc "windows 10' any adivce?

When you run a batch file, the system checks the path that the ComSpec system variable mentions. If the value of this variable is incorrect, say the path given is not for the Command Prompt, the system refuses to open your file.

Make sure that only

EasyAntiCheat_EOS_Setup.exe install eb14dadbf5944cb188af72e945f728ed

is present within the file in a single line
Aside from that I have nothing else my dude.

My only other guess is that the "eb14dadbf5944cb188af72e945f728ed" portion of this code is dynamic, and must change to where it was originally sourced from by Fitzgibbon- we'd just need to know where the homie got it

I am but a fool, no expertise here my dude

[Fitzgibbon]

That code is an ID associated with the game itself, and I confirmed it was consistent between different accounts.

I named the file a .bat file in properties rather than save as. that would be my bad works great thank you guys for the help.

Update: Just built a guide with all this stuff.

I have the same ID in my settings.json, but unfortunately this did not fix it.

ebic's/Behaviour's incomepetence with their EAC is truly astonishing.
This has been an issue for 3+ months now.
