Re: Ea wrc anti cheat error after 2.1.6 update

@t-v-lanen Same here. No problem before the 2.1.6 upgrade now this screen (in English) and can't get the game back. Same screen repeatedly comes up.
The only way I could fix it was disconnect all USB's from the sim rig to PC, boot into the game and then re-plug USB's.

  • @BundyBro77 Tried your usb method now and this got me in the game again. But really, Come on EA fix your anti cheat and game issues, this is nonsense

    Only one of my USB inputs is causing the problem. By removing all USB's and plugging in one by one I got it down to a Chinese manufactured 2 x 100w amplifier I use as an under seat butt kicker in USB mode (not Bluetooth. Causes delays). Now I just turn that amp off at the switch next to the seat until WRC boots, then turn it on for game play. Still a pretty crappy solution but it's easier than unplugging USB cables.

  • @BundyBro77 Well I think you are on to something here then, atleast for our problem, as I happen to be using a Chinese bass amp to for my bass shakers too

    You guys are great,
    The USB port is also the problem for me.
    I have a NAS-Server connected via the USB port.

    EA should address the problem and provide a patch!

    Hi there Surf02_hh. As a matter of interest, have you found which one of your USB devices is causing your problem?

    I am trying to find a common type or brand of device that triggers the cheat code. Thanks, BundyBro77

    Hi @surf02_hh 

    Thanks for the DiskStation info. I was expecting you may have also had some sim rig USB's on a hub (since we are on a rally sim). So definitely not one of those? Don't know why a NAS would trigger the cheat blocker. It's a puzzle for sure.

    Regards BundyBro77

  • Hello @BundyBro77 ,

    Yes, I have a sim rig from Fanatec, but that's not the problem.
    It's the DiskStation, directly connected via USB to the PC.

    Regards

  • I spent two weeks on the bug, I tried everything and you gave me the solution.


    Thank you very much
