It's also worth noting that the update to glibc 2.36 breaks EAC on everything (DBD included), so if you're using a rolling release or bleeding-edge distro, this may require a workaround.
I think Arch may (?) have already fixed this in its implementation of glibc, and there were workarounds floating around as well if you Google it. But I don't use Arch anymore and am not sure.
If anyone knows what glibc SteamOS is currently using (I imagine that Valve wouldn't allow EAC to break on its own platforms), that might be interesting.
On Gentoo, recompile glibc with the hash-sysv-compat USE flag.
The only other distros this might currently affect, AFAIK, are Fedora and OpenSUSE's rolling release branch, so if anyone's using those, try firing up any game with EAC and post results.

Fedora works. Even tho I have glib 2.36-8 installed which is odd.

You guys are all right, but why does the epic version works and the Steam one doesn't? Cannot be just a server side block otherwise it wouldn't work for Epic too. I may be wrong since I'm far from being an expert tho
The answer could be some differences between these two, maybe it's just a library mismatch or a difference in how the executable from Steam works compared to that of Epic.
I don't know if this have any relevance or is it just an expected result since I don't have the knowledge to analyze a dll/so compiled library but I found this, maybe someone could investigate even more:
(I used the same command for every file you see here)
user@pc:~$ strings '.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/common/Dead by Daylight/DeadByDaylight.exe' | grep Easy
This give the following results:
- DeadByDaylight.exe
Unloading the EasyAntiCheat library.
Outdated EasyAntiCheat library, does not match with launcher's version.
EasyAntiCheat Oy1
EasyAntiCheat Oy0
- DeadByDaylight-Win64-Shipping.exe :
../../../EasyAntiCheat/eac_server64.dll
../../../EasyAntiCheat/easyanticheat_x64.dll
- EasyAntiCheat_x64.dll :

- easyanticheat_x64.so :
EasyAntiCheat\Cache\
User-Agent: EasyAntiCheat-Client/1.0
EasyAntiCheat successfully initialized

If someone with the Epic version could try the same to see if there are any differences would be cool.

If you're able to play via Epic, the file content of drive_c/users/<USER>/AppData/Roaming/EasyAntiCheat/83/loader.logwould be interesting.

It also tries to download the wine64 eac thing:

[2023.01.07-00.26.35] [Connection] Connecting to URL: https://download.eac-cdn.com/api/v1/games/83/client/wine64/download/?uuid=

it then fails and tries to download it again:

[2023.01.07-00.26.35] [Connection] Connect result: No error (0) Response Code: 200 Destination IP:
[2023.01.07-00.26.35] HTTP Response Code: 200 Curl Code: 0

[2023.01.07-00.26.35] [Connection] Connecting to URL: https://download-alt.easyanticheat.net/api/v1/games/83/client/wine64/download/?uuid=

that then once again fails and the log ends there:

[2023.01.07-00.26.35] [Connection] Connect result: No error (0) Response Code: 200 Destination IP:
[2023.01.07-00.26.35] HTTP Response Code: 200 Curl Code: 0
[2023.01.07-00.26.35] [EAC Callback] Code 915. Message: 'HTTP Response Code: 200 Curl Code: 0'.

download progress stays at 0%

HOWEVER

there is a file at the same location as the "83" folder called:

gamelauncher.log

which ends with the following lines:

[Info] [LauncherFinished] EACAsyncResult: 0 Message: 'Easy Anti-Cheat successfully loaded in-game'.
[Info] Unloading the EasyAntiCheat library.
[Info] Destroying windows.
[Info] Exit.

both files appear to have been written to by eac at the same time:

loader.log           00:26:35
gamelauncher.log     00:26:38

Yet I have no idea why it says it failed to download the wine64 eac thing but then still successfully loads eac?

I've tried out the steam version just now and it's working like the EGS version. No issues so far.

I just updated Dead by Daylight and was able to play a multiplayer match on Steam. I don't know if it was a fix from de devs or my tinkering. Later I'll be able to test and identify what need to be done but right now here is my tinkering status.
I've linked EasyAntiCheat folder to DeadByDaylight/Binaries/EGS/EasyAntiCheat and DeadByDaylight/Binaries/Win64/EasyAntiCheat.
Also set the launch options:
PROTON_EAC_RUNTIME=/pathtosteamlibrary/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Proton\ EasyAntiCheat\ Runtime %command%
I'll really enjoy if someone confirms and check all the thinkering done.

Followed the steps from this comment.

This using the Heroic launcher?
Edit: Getting disconnected from steam like Siylph wrote.

Heroic, yes.

New update is still working. No problems so far.

in EAC on Steam Deck / Proton / Linux Comment by Tiixxel November 22, 2022

I managed to merge my accounts before they shut the tool down, progress has been in sync and haven't had any problems so far.

in EAC on Steam Deck / Proton / Linux Comment by Tiixxel November 20, 2022

It happened without the FPS unlock. It's basically rolling a dice, sometimes the client will say "ye sure no EAC problems", sometimes it will. I restart until it works.

And I have my progress from steam on EGS because I synced it previously :)

in EAC on Steam Deck / Proton / Linux Comment by Tiixxel November 17, 2022

Can confirm that the EGS version works with EAC. Can play on both my Steam Deck and Desktop, although it is a hit or miss and sometimes it will error on the inintial loading screen, sometimes it won't and just work perfectly fine.

Good news for EAC on Deck + Steam Deck test results getting published soon

You no longer need to use the EOS EAC Version to enable proton support. The non EOS version is supported now as well! This means that now it‘s actually only a click away and does not require the change of game binaries etc.

in EAC on Steam Deck / Proton / Linux Comment by Tiixxel January 22, 2022

I got a response about the support request I sent, unfortunately nothing new.

in EAC on Steam Deck / Proton / Linux Comment by Tiixxel October 4, 2021

Since BHVR is answering some Questions from the Community, asking about EAC support might help as well!

There is already a post up for this, it would be great if all of you could vote this up: https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/283963/linux-steam-desk-support

in EAC on Steam Deck / Proton / Linux Comment by Tiixxel September 29, 2021

There is already another forum post asking for this: https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/282110/eac-on-steam-deck-proton-linux#latest

But obviously still a +1 from me here, I would love to play dbd on my Steam deck in the future / on my Linux desktop right now!

in Activate anti-cheat support for Linux via Wine or Proton Comment by Tiixxel September 26, 2021

I have also submitted a support ticket asking if they could enable eac support for proton since it is required for the steam deck and Linux in general. Let’s all hope for the best, I’d switch in an instant if this goes through!

in EAC on Steam Deck / Proton / Linux Comment by Tiixxel September 24, 2021

+1 from me as well

in EAC on Steam Deck / Proton / Linux Comment by Tiixxel September 24, 2021

This bug seems to have been fixed by the latest Bugfix patch (5.2.2) and the thread can be closed.

Thank you BHVR!

in ESC loading into match - unable to move Comment by Tiixxel September 21, 2021

Can confirm this. (Series X)

in Xbox Series X|S versions of the game have the 5.2.2 update Comment by Tiixxel September 18, 2021

The only reason on why I like the new movement is because if you crouch, you are much smaller and your head doesn’t peak through windows etc.

Or if somebody is on the ground, the surv needs to completely bow down to them to heal.

I only like some small visual improvements, which is why I can accept the new movement. But I’d rather resort to the old movement with the new improvements, if that would be possible.
