Greetings, soldiers! We’re pleased to inform you that we have finally setup Easy Anti Cheat into major gaming modes for all players, we’re now ready to roll it out in one of the upcoming updates. It is an important step to integrate the Easy Anti Cheat system in our game.
The setup process will be done sequentially, and as for this current stage, we will start with EAC implementation in modes which have no markers, as well as tournaments, both being areas where EAC’s help is needed most. The statistics collected afterwards will help us to further improve EAC in future integrations, allowing us to progress to other game modes where prohibited modifications provide fewer advantages.
Enable EAC in advance
We have provided Easy Anti-Cheat for ‘no marker’ modes and tournaments , exactly where it’s help matters more. EAC asks your permission to run when you are entering such battles for the first time.
To avoid re-loading the War Thunder game client, make sure to check the box in the game launcher, you are free to do it any time. That’s all, EAC is on, and you are allowed to play all battle modes!
Double protection
The proven heuristic analysis mechanism continues its active duty in War Thunder. It allows us to effectively spot players with forbidden modifications. Also, you are free to address a direct complaint on any suspicious players via our Replay system.
We will continue to master the EAC algorithms in War Thunder to guarantee safe and enjoyable gameplay for you. Thank you for your support!
F.A.Q.
Does EAC affect a platform’s performance?
No, EAC requires minimal load of your system’s performance abilities, and you won’t notice any changes in performance.
I’m afraid EAC will ban me for sound mods, or team voice chat overlay.
Don’t worry, EAC protects only the core data of the game and doesn’t deal with sound mods. Also, all popular team communication applications are whitelisted in the EAC algorithms.
If you have any issues, please contact the EAC support service.
Are there any issues with EAC and anti-virus software?
Nope, EAC works well with the majority of antiviruses.
EAC is not effective, it can’t protect against anything!
Dozens of super popular gaming projects trust in EAC’s capabilities, so does the War Thunder team. Interestingly, most of these games do not have their own protection system, unlike War Thunder. Also, we continue to use EAC in other games, like Crossout and Cuisine Royale - everything is currently okay!
EAC reports an issue.
Try these solutions:
- Add EAC to the anti-malware exceptions;
- Re-check the EAC checkbox in War Thunder, reload the client,and run EAC again.
- Please report any problems to us.
The War Thunder Team

Tip: Check loaded DLL's! Normally they try to hack the direct3d injecting stuff in program process. For example like getting vehicle coordinates and then take bot actions. 2 ways , IN process bot or out-process. First one the bot resides inside programs memory. The second, the outside bot is listening a port for communication. When the dll attach occurs, its connects to the listening server. For anti-cheat, most effective ones are sort of kernel drivers which gives a lot of work to work around:D
Yeah, the unfortunate part is that many, many DLL's are asked to attach, even when they are not being used. For instance I use National Instruments very, very, expensive software. I get a lot of "NI****.dll" attaches in just about any application. This now "targets" me as a NI user and vulnerabilities in NI software can now be exploited.
Jester_McCloudy, this, btw, is why I never send crash dump files and all the other stuff they need to hunt a bug.
WM_COPYDATA message its also a way for intraprocess communications. Try to install a watchdog inside game process paired with a windows service. Both of them reporting each other based on time or some actions. Ok, good luck!
I see this going horribly wrong so fast. EAC has banned me in other games for things like Amazon Music's downloadable client running, GeForce experience recording, my VPN program, and most recently since I only use my cellphone for an internet connection, PDAnet running has gotten me banned like 5 times in the last year.
can u listen to music using windows media player or winamp without being ban?!
Of course you can, you won't get banned for using windows media player :D :D :D
nice =)
I thought it already came to WT since update 1.91?
If i remember correctly , it gave false accusations and it was very buggy in the test phase on the 1.91 dev servers , so it was delayed.
A very welcome addition. EAC isn't perfect but it's a lot better than nothing at all!
What do you mean " you are free to do it any time" ? Can a player log in the game without activating it?
You can log into the game without activation, but activating EAC is required to join some game modes. We will extend the amount of game mode in the future, eventually only single player should be accessible without EAC.
Yes but he cant play online if he does. Only PVE or custom battles with bots.
All answers (1)JagdEnte, The game mode, where most of the cheaters are playing is the tank Arcade battle, it should be activated there firstly. Please take enough time to add it there and be EAC obligatory for all of the game modes. Thank you!
