 |
|
Hi,
With the release of SteamDeck multiple games have gotten support for running EasyAntiCheat titles through Proton, but I haven't been able to run any that I've tried.
I've tried BattleBit which is supposed to work with Proton-6.3-8 and Insurgency:Sandstorm which is supposed to work with Proton Experimental.
The end result is always the same, I get a splashscreen that says "Launch Error, Failed to load the anti-cheat module".
I'd be the most keen on getting Insurgency:Sandstorm working, so I'll focus on it in this topic.
Here's what I've tried so far:
- Move Proton Experimental, Proton EasyAntiCheat Runtime and Insurgency:Sandstorm to a ext4 filesystem and reinstall all these titles & tools through Steam.
- Opt into Steam Experimental Bleeding Edge beta branch
- Try launch Steam with STEAM_RUNTIME=0 STEAM_RUNTIME_HEAVY=0
- Try Proton 7.0 & GE-Proton7-9
- Try Gentoo distribution kernel
- Compile net-fs/samba with "winbind" USE-flag, as the Proton log mentioned that ntlm_auth is not detected (depclean afterwards, as there was no effect.)
- Wipe the Proton prefix & shadercache folders
This is what the two log files in ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/581320/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Roaming/EasyAntiCheat contain:
service.log:

A few more folders in, there's a loader.log:

I launched the game using Proton Experimental with PROTON_LOG=1 WINEDEBUG=+pid,+tid,+dinput,+hid,+plugplay %command% launch options, here's the log file that came out of it:
http://ix.io/3Rxf
games-util/steam-launcher is installed with all it's USE-flags enabled.
Other people on ProtonDB have reported it working well so there's something off with my system.
Assistance is greatly appreciated with this issue, as EasyAntiCheat is not making my life Easy.
Edit:
I talked with my friend and he has two files in ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/581320/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Roaming/EasyAntiCheat/eb330869cd5f4881b0a8a0220a8c284d/2324da9a1c0341eea4cf43c070760c75/ that I don't have on my system.
Those are easyanticheat_linux_x86_x64.eac.metadata and easyanticheat_linux_x86_x64.eac
Copying these over to my system did not work, as EAC deleted them after I attempted to launch the game.
I'm pretty certain now that the absence of those files is the reason why I'm unable to initialize the anti-cheat module on game start.
Manually trying to invoke the EAC installer within Insurgency:Sandtorm's installation folder results in a empty commandline prompt, which will shortly disappear and the following gets added to service.log
| Code: | [EAC Setup] [280] [19:37:00:967] [Info] Process started, running as admin: true.
[EAC Setup] [280] [19:37:00:967] [Info] Started with ''.
[EAC Setup] [280] [19:37:10:970] [Info] Argument handling done, requested action: 0.
[EAC Setup] [280] [19:37:10:971] [Err!] No setup action was requested, terminating. |
I installed Steam through Flatpak and it was able to initialize EAC on Insurgency:Sandstorm, but I'm not planning on keeping Flatpak on my system.
The goal is to get it working with steam-launcher from steam-overlay.
Edit2:
I'm able to launch EAC titles that use easyanticheat_x64.so.
The problem seems to be with titles that use the EOS implementation of EAC, which Insurgency: Sandstorm and Battlebit are.
We are currently trying to troubleshoot the issue here https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/1651
Another Gentoo Linux user has stated that they're facing the same issue as me, while the users of other distributions have no problems.
What could cause something like this?
How can I troubleshoot this further?

EAC does not work for me with the portage version of steam. Seems to be some gentoo specific issue, other gentoo users reported that by using a flatpack version of the steam made EAC work (for Elden Ring).
also this link does not work: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/1651.

I've fixed the link. Thanks for letting me know.
I tried it with Flatpak and it was able to initialize EOS EAC succesfully, but that's not a solution because I don't want any flatpaks on my system.
Where should this gentoo specific issue be submitted?
To steam-overlay issues tracker? |

The issue was caused by export libc_cv_hashstyle=no in the ebuild of glibc-2.34-r10.
A fix has been pushed out and will probably soon land stable on ::gentoo.
For those who run amd64 systems and don't want to upgrade into a testing version of glibc, I've created this simple patch to apply for glibc-2.34-r10.
