Community ManagerHey there BatSimoBeibi
Sorry to hear you're running into this issue. A workaround for this was found in this thread here
Can you check to see if you have "Daemon tools" installed? If so try uninstalling Daemon tools and see if that resolves the problem.
have same problem and this solution does not work and i have no Discsoftltf programs on this pc
Hey so it seems like alot of people are having this issue and dont have anything called DiscSoftLTD or from DiscSoftLTD. However, Daemon Tools publishes DiscSoftLTD and... ReWASD. The workaround is that your anticheat forcing your users to delete a controller mapping software that is well known just to play your game? This cannot be the "solution" you think the player are gonna have to use... Can whoever works on the anticheat please for the love of god and everything that is holy fix this. I would hate to have to put this game on the shelf forever.
Hi AstroJVon,
Using reWASD is not allowed under the EA anti-cheat as it can be used to gain an unfair advantage. Sorry, but you'll have to use an alternative such as Steam overlay for button mapping.
how would Daemon Tools give you "an unfair advantage" though?
EA just f-ed up while updating the anti-cheat and now should just fix it.
This was not a solution for me. It still gives the same error. So what it says in the error message that you need to delete Daemon Tools is not a solution.
who said anything about deleting anything? You simply can not run Daemon Tools while playing that's all.. Close the app before you start your game. Kill it from task manager
