Hello,
My problem is that when I try to run the game through the shortcut steam creates on downloading/installing 7 Days to Die, I get the EAC splash screen, the meter on the bottom fills, then the splash screen closes and the client does not launch.
I can run 7DaysToDie_EAC.exe manually in the game directory as an Administrator and it loads up fine, though I cannot join any servers with EAC enabled as halfway through downloading the map, I get kicked by EAC and a temporary ban of 15 minutes. I don't know if this is because EAC is not running properly or because I have slow internet, though I can play fine on servers without EAC.
I have noticed in my task manager that when the EAC launcher goes away, the 7DaysToDie.exe process shows briefly, then disappears. If I try to launch the game too many times like this, eventually I get a blue screen error of BAD_POOL_HEADER.
The game leaves behind no log in GameDirectory/7DaysToDie_Data.
Games runs fine if I disable EAC, both for server and singleplayer.
What I have tried:
Disabling my AntiMalware and Comodo Firewall completely.
Repairing EAC with the EasyAntiCheatSetup.exe as Administrator
Uninstalling and Reinstalling EAC with EasyAntiCheatSetup.exe as Administrator
Deleting the 7DaysToDie folder in AppData/Roaming.
Verifying Integrity of Files through Steam.
Uninstalling EAC, Uninstalling 7 Days to Die through Steam, deleting remaining game folder, deleting 7DaysToDie folder in AppData/Roaming, deleting the entire FunPimps subentry in the Registry, running CCleaner on the Registry, then finally redownloading the game through steam.
I am thoroughly flummoxed.
