AHK/DS4 and EAC

AHK is causing problems with EAC. This program is impossible to cheat with, but yet it cancels the startup with EAC basically saying I am using prohibited software. I am certain this is just an ov...

Hey @zuperkamelen,

Sorry this has had a negative effect for you.

Though others have discussed some potential issues already, this would not be the place to expand on how AHK (or any other software for that matter) could be used to automate behavior.

While it's great that you don't run in the circles that may use similar programs for less-than-legitimate purposes, those circles do unfortunately exist. There certainly isn't a one-stop solution to cheating, but we're constantly adapting and approaching the issue from multiple angles. Feel free to check this out for a bit more information, if you haven't already seen the article.

Thanks for the discussion and feedback, all!

@EA_Mako
Then give us support for our controllers. I paid premium for a dualsense edge because I have nerve damage and need the back buttons. Can't use it in none of your games on PC without a "3rd party app". All of your answers on the forums are useless because you provide no solution to people with disabilities that can't use their controllers now.

    @WatchMeShine Sorry to hear about your issues, I know all disabilities can differ from one another. I do have friends though who use blow tubes to play the game due to having no hands or arms 1 of them has them but unable to use them.

    The issue really boils down to people used them for bad things. Despite the good they bring to people bad folks ruin good things. AHK, among all the others in the hackers word typically is going to be doing things it should not though. Most programmers don't run ahk files on startup let alone after start up unless working on a specific thing. When we do have stuff we have to run things like that for we use our working machine and not our gaming machine. Stuff like that for any game can flag systems therefore most use different computers one with their scripts for work and one they game with.

    I assume though if someone is truly running ahk and stuff like it 90% of the time its up to no good. That's just me though but other games and companies also agree they are used for bad far more than the good.

    Im sure there may be something out there that can fill that gap that would be allowed. Foot pedals, Blow tubes, among thousands of other options.
