ELDEN RING disable EAC and still be able to play online

Wanna play online, but not have the EAC malware active? then here's the guide for it.

Online play, No EAC

in the common\ELDEN RING\Game\EasyAntiCheat folder, there exists a file known as "settings.json". open it with notepad, and proceed to copy/paste the following over what currently resides there:

{

"title" : "ELDEN RING™",

"executable" : "eldenring.exe",

"productid" : "Dank",

"sandboxid" : "420",

"deploymentid" : "69",

"requested_splash" : "./EasyAntiCheat/SplashScreen.png",

"wait_for_game_process_exit" : "false",

"logo_position" : "bottom-left"


save the file. from now on, when you launch the game EAC will open, immediately launch Elden ring with no startup delay, and then EAC will crash/shut itself down. the game still thinks EAC is active, because EAC launched Elden ring and that's all it actually cares about. congrats. you now have online play without the insane performance hit of EAC, the random crashes of EAC, and the literal malware/spyware that is EAC.
