RGB Light Hub banned

[DopePope]

Just installed 3 rgb fans with a control hub
Had to plug control hub into the internal USB hub on the motherboard to get lights to work
started the game killed 2 people and the game closed and anticheat says unplug usb it detected something suspicious...
banned 2 days for having 3 RGB fans with a light hub with 6 slots.
This game is so broken
Uninstalled. Not worth a steam ban on my account

Also use icue for my mouse.

Still doesnt explain why this specific fan does it. Someone should check into this. This is a very brand new fan hub . Its probably not patched . Not risking a steam ban for fans. Not like I can unplug them either they keep my computer cool. Swear try those fans I posted you'll be banned .
I bet you anything

Again, I have 6 of them installed on 2 corsair hubs and I'm not banned. They aren't that new, been around since 2021 ish.

What was the exact code given for warning

EA anticheat has detected an unacceptable configuration. Please ensure no cheat related or tampering software is active and restart the game . (117)
Then got 72 hours ban . So I uninstalled not playing a game that falsely accusing its players .

Clean up your system files and disks is a common fix for that error, it means it could not read something generally
Most likely a temporary file

What you posted vs 117 are two very different statements

I'm not following your hillbilly fix . It's the game simple . They need to stop using paying customers for testing. EA screwed up and they know it .

if this happens in the metaverse then we're all screwed

Battlefield 2042 16 hours played banned for having colorful fans , new record
battlefield 5 zero hours never installing after this happened to me
good luck have fun

I got the new controller icue link and the game working fine the new controller came with iCUE LINK H170i i doubt it be the fan controller it be something else on ya system

[Khamal]

Lol a fix that is used and should be used to cleanup your computer yearly
I don’t even want to know the state of your pc lol

You don’t get banned for that warning alone

[DopePope]

pretty funny how most of you all say the same things , "you must have cheated".
Im sorry you cant believe anyone cuz you've been lied to many times before in your life everything you hear is a lie.
this game is broken , ive told you guys what RGB fans and if you dont believe me thats your problem, I should know what i do on my computer. my account has 50+ games not one cheated and ill keep it this way , i uninstalled this trashy game , i really do hope you guys have problems in the future with the same thing and no one believe you.
you might know what a person is feeling on this side. you all will find out sooner or later if you update your PC more people are having the same problems i was sceptical at first too, but now its happened to me too so its done.
EA failed more then just me, there are plenty of people getting treated like criminals , its not right , you wouldn't understand tho brain is so small .
why would anyone complain this much if they knew they were cheating makes no <3<3<3<3 sense.
Im waiting for EA to patch RGB lights simple, i might try again until then this game is garbage and a waste of money. you can google my very problem and get alot of results so its not just me , there are others out there having the same issues
funny how EA is testing a new Anti cheat engine at the cost of honest players ..
i can see alot more people not buying any EA games.
one day we all will agree EA sucks. and laugh cuz they failed to make a anti cheat system never tested it. it banned everyone for RGB color fans , only ones playing in the future are cheaters GG

You mean the problem where they said they fixed it by doing exactly what I said

[shotgunharry]

well there have been a lot of reports about rgb software/controlers triggering anticheat in bf2042. i have icue also and no problems but my logitech mouse changes colors and "blinks" in bf2042. its the only game this happens.

Not nearly everyone has rgb fans and never will. I personally find them obnoxious. But it's another "small percentage" problem, and this game has many of those. If it takes them weeks or months to fix issues which affect majority of the players every day, it would take them years to fix something which affects only an minority of the players.

I just wonder because I've got that warning as well but didn't get banned and could just launch the game right away without problems, after shutting down the software which caused the issue on my case (an online protection system). Did you try to launch the game again without turning off the software, and got that ban after that? That warning on itself is just that, an warning. Not an message about an instant ban.

But IDK, someone already gave you an "possible fix" to the issue and you'd rather sit there with your thumb up in certain place than try to work around it. So yeah, PC might not be the best platform for you if you are not willing to do anything for yourself. Some games just require it, I've got over 250 in Steam so I'm not bullsh*tting when I say this game is not the only one.

You should write to EA. Bringing this to a community forum achieves nothing.

I got that warning . And uninstalled. Alot of people have the same things happening to them . I'm not risking a permanent ban just cuz some kids told me it might fix it . Ya or I'll get permanent ban . These kids have no clue . I work with battleye and never had these problems. And battleye when set up correctly you can catch alot of cheat engines . So ya I dont know what I'm doing .. back to arma3 they never let me down
Waino for a update patching RGB lights . It's the anticheat system problem. I have no control over . So waiting games starts

You never answered him, the warning is a warning not a ban
How do you intend to see if it is patched when the anti cheat does not give patch notes

I guess we will have to wait and see . I guarentee they know since I've been on the forums I found this
"Anti-Cheat Error: We are seeing some of you being removed from a match with an Anti-Cheat error message."
Im sure they will let people know.
I'm not the only one on fourms. I cant see this being fixed fast tho .
