Flag to allow the game to run with EAC #25

Closed joao-pedro-braz closed 2 years ago

joao-pedro-braz commented 2 years ago

Hello All,

This Feature adds a flag to the script that allow the game to start with EAC enabled, by making Steam execute the "start_protected_game.exe" instead of the "eldenring.exe".

At the time of writing, I've been playing the game online with all fixes active and with EAC enabled for the better part of a week. I'm yet to encounter any problems with EAC/Online Playing due to the hex edits, but good-judgment must be made by the player, as to whether use or not this feature.

As evidence that it does in fact work, here is a screenshot of me playing the game online with all fixes active: image

Hello, thanks for this pull request! Did you intentionally not add documentation to the readme or is this intended to be a "hidden" feature? To know this feature exists currently one would have to effectively read the source code.

I think if we add this feature it would be best to document it in the readme and put a bold warning in the flag description.

Hello!

Yeah, I forgot to do that... 🙂 I'll fix it in a gist, thanks for pointing it out!

Just committed an update to the README, adding the flag to the Features table.

Hello!

I updated the README to make it clearer that it's possible to run the game with EAC enabled. Don't mind the reverted commit, had a brain fart.
