Re: The client failed an anti-cheat runtime integrity check: violation

i think that you had to do something with ANTI CHEAT PROGRAM because maybe some wawe of cheater moved around your security, but now it is broken for some regular players, why i was able to play this game 5-6 days ago and not now, can you just say to me, did you make any changes? or are you trying to fix this problem? or youll say every time that its a problem in my computer? LOL

  • @LCBH2  You know right? And even if this isn't relevant but I've bought the battle pass and i'm at 107...now I can't reach level 110 till they fix it (So new season if we're lucky).
    I should ask for a refun at this point LOL. That's absolutley no respect for who support the game.

    Hey Guys,

    Decided I'd join the conversation and share my story. Since I have the same issue.

    I've been having the same error message 'The client failed an anti-cheat runtime integrity check: violation'. When I try to play Apex i get the error message when I'm looking for a weapon right after the initial drop and it kicks me out of the game. Sometimes it also happens right after finding a match.  It's been going on since yesterday (friday 20 september). 

    I've looked online for a solution and have tried so many things already. Here's the list of things I tried: 

    - Reinstalling the game with Origin
    - Repairing EasyAntiCheat
    - Updating Windows and Geforce game Drivers
    - Running the sfc /scannow command with administrator rights https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/929833/use-the-system-file-checker-tool-to-repair-missing-o...
    - Full anti-virus system scan with Avast Anti-Virus, MalwareBytes and MalwareBytes Anti-Rootkit Beta
    - All the steps from this post: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/Easy-Anti-Cheat-troubleshooting-steps/td-p/7437695

    I've tried all the options at least twice obviously without succes. Gonna try a couple more things like a clean boot so ill update it on this post if anything I try works. Hopefully Respawn or EA Support is reading the post too so they can help us out!!

  • Same problem here. 

    I'm playing Apex since day one, completed Season 2 a week ago. Played a few games two days ago, with no problems.

    And now this. Exactly like others - few seconds after landing, gets kicked out of the game.

    Also happens in training mode. 

    Tried reinstalling Origin, Apex, repairing EAC, with no luck so far.

    I'm trying to understand what causes this, but it has to be some server issue, or problem on their (Respawn) side. Because I didn't have any issues two days ago and since then, I didn't install, update or change anything on my PC.

    @kesty_fresh Its definitely a problem between EAC and something server side. The fact that this started happening to so many people at the same time, with nobody changing anything about their own games or computers, AND right when they ended the Wraith Event, says it has to be that.

    I'll try some other servers (I normally use Dallas) and will let you guys know if that helps. Also, I'll let you know if anything comes of my twitter/instagram questions.

    I have already reported my issues on down detector. If other people could too, maybe it would get more visibility.

    its a definitelly server-side issue , all of us get error either in normal mode few seconds after landing or after 3 min in training mode , and if u try to play after error you will get insta error again , we all have exactly the same issue. hope this will be fixed theres too many of us

    well...I have something to add. I've played 2 hours straight on another PC and the game worked fine...so i assume that there's some DLL or driver on our PC that generate this error....

    There's the differences between the 2 PC used:

    1 (Main one not worknig) (PC):

    Windows 8 OS

    CPU: i5-6600k

    GPU: Evga GTX 1080Ti

    2 My brother's PC (Working one) (Gaming Laptop):

    Windows 10 OS

    CPU: i7-8750H

    GPU: GTX 1050Ti

    Same GPU driver Version.

  • i have windows 8 pro , doesnt work for me , it seems only win 8 is the issue ,

    I'm on 8.1, so maybe the issue does lies within that?

    What is odd to me is I was able to play Rust for about 5 hours last night, which also uses EAC. Never once got a pop up or warning dialog.

    @VeX_Raptorz  Well I also play on Dbd that use EAC but i don't experience the same issue....so idk

    BUT seems that we all have 1 thing in common THE OS.

    i'm trying one more thing...

    Maybe and i'm saying MAYBE on the prevoius version of Windows there's a service that has been removed and so here create problems. Actually i'm closing one by one every different service open on WIN 8 compared to WIN 10.

    I'll let you know
