I'm only interested in playing on servers that don't require the anticheat, yet the Windows installer requires installing the EAC service on the system. Is there a way this could be done without having to compile from source?
Edit: I found a way with 7-zip installed:
Run this in a command prompt in the folder where you've downloaded the installer:
7z x p1xbraten_setup_8.2.0.exe
Drag p1xbraten.bat and the bin64 folder to your Sauerbraten installation. You can remove bin64/start_protected_game.exe as it's not needed.
Nice workaround, seems like less work than it would take me to compile two Windows binaries, write another installer build script, run that as part of packaging, etc. I'll link to it when the next person asks :D
