Helping a friend that gets random disconnects

Hey guys, my friend and I play pretty much every day, and he gets random timeouts on his game. I have attached the last log file of when he timed out. Does anyone know what could be causing this? We are in discord but he only drops out in the game.

There is nothing in that log to suggest what is happening. Any chance you could post the server log that shows the friend dropping out?

 
Looks like he’s getting kicked by EAC, the anticheat program. I don’t understand that error, maybe someone else will chime in. If it’s a private server for you and your friends, just turn off EAC on the server and see if that solves his issue.

 
Thanks for the input! I have turned off the EAC and will see how it goes tomorrow.

It is still a no-go for him and now we have another player that has been having the same issues (which has just been brought to light). The 2nd player has been having issues since the server started, so it was not effected by the EAC being turned off.

Looks like OS/hardware woes.

What OS friend has?

What hardware?

Is this a laptop?

I take it back.

This to me suggests connection issues. Which COULD trigger problems with steam authentication, which could result in VAC validation failure, as Star69 suggested.

Run 10000 pings to 8.8.8.8 on friend's computer and see if there is a packet loss.

Shader warnings are usually harmless and I would guess the worst that could happen would be that the player sees orange shapes in his world. But I could be wrong here, I am not an expert on Unity

It could also just be the result of the server throwing out the client because of EAC violations or something else.
