Low fps and disconects due to EasyAntiCheat

 Won't put my specs here, just say that previosly I had average 100fps. I also tried all possible solutions (reinstalling, deleting anticheat and repairing the game, getting latest driver, getting 436.15 nvidia driver, etc.) it didn't help. I checked my PC and internet connection with all tools and in other games, everything runs smooth.

I triend setting anti-cheat proccess priority to "low" while in game. I can now select my character without disconecting and play the game with 1-15fps.

The issue is clearly the EasyAntiCheat, does anyone have something in mind? Other people still play the game, so I don't believe EA or Respawn will do something about it.

The problem itself appeared out of nowhere, 1-2days right after Voidwalker event has ended. I didn't install any new programs, drivers etc.

  • I tried to run the game on: Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 Pro/LTSB/Home/insider preview, but nothing helped.
    Many times I restored the game, many times it downloads again...

    But I found a solution:


    1. Close Apex and Origin.


    2. Delete this:
      -Folder %appdata%/EasyAntiCheat
      -Folder EasyAntiCheat in game folder
      -File EasyAntiCheat_launcher.exe and EasyAntiCheat_x64.dll in game folder


    3. Run Origin and repair Apex.


    4. Run EasyAntiCheat_Setup.exe from Game_Folder/EasyAntiCheat/
        and now a little magic:
          select 7 Days To die
          select back Apex
          click Repair Service text (left side)

    It seems that the anti-cheat installer incorrectly selects the game for which it is installed. In С:\Program Files (x86)\EasyAntiCheat the correct exe file with anti-cheat from 19.08 should appear (remember when it all started?). For the lazy I will attach correct eac files in this message (just copy it to С:\Program Files (x86)\EasyAntiCheat).

    5. Run Apex and enjoy

    The mystery is easily solved.

    Sorry for my bad English.
