The Mega Trainer is no longer working after the patch was released today. I can boot up the trainer normally, but when Steam is open it often crashes as soon as it pops up. If I do manage to get it to stay open I can enter RUSE, activate the trainer at main menu... But when I try to start a Skirmish game I get booted to desktop. This happens every time no matter what I do.
The latest patch almost solely addresses cheating. I haven't been using the trainer online but I suspect some people have been, and that is what this patch is aimed at. I know for a fact achievements you get while using the trainer in single player cross over to your online profile, but I'm not sure if the trainer works in multiplayer games. I haven't tried yet and don't plan to. The patch is saying they added an in-game kick and autoban from public servers system for those identified as cheaters, but I'm not sure how they're identifying.
Either way I think the latest patch has broken the trainer. Would appreciate a fix on this, or at least to know if it really is the patch that's breaking the trainer or I'm just doing something stupid.
Thanks!

Same thing happens here. Need a new one soon.
I am a newbie at Steam. Is there a way to block the update?
You guys are doing a fantastic job. Keep it up.

Not Steams fault, they only release patches released by the developers.

Jendryk2000 you are correct! The trainer does not work anymore with the game! We shall have to wait until a new trainer comes out. Great job in posting the issue though!

Can anyone verify that trainers for other games that use Steam are working ? It seems that the latest patch made more of a change to Steam than to RUSE. I could be wrong though.
Hope you guys can get this one fixed. This is one of the few games where I can honestly say the trainer makes it more fun/interesting... With turner the difficulty way up and spamming bombers for awesomely cool replays.
