Warhammer: Vermintide 2 Message Board  

Crashes solved. Option 4 now resets ultimate instead of perma on. Nicely done, CH.

EAC is detecting WKE and not letting me launch the game. Message output is "Please close Windows Kernel Explorer" when launching the game.

I don't know how the manner EAC would detect WKE. But here is what you can do (from WKE github) :

How to customize WKE
You can customize WKE by editing the configuration file. Currently, you can specify the device name and symbolic link name of driver, and altitude of filter. You can also enable kernel-mode and user-mode characteristics randomization to avoid being detected by malware. If you rename the EXE file of WKE, then you need to rename SYS/DAT/INI files together with the same name.

So change these values in .ini :

DeviceAndSymbolicLinkName
FilterAltitude

And also rename .exe, .ini, .dat, and .sys to another name

It should do the trick

Fun fact, if you rebind the Reset Special Cooldown to F, then it's effectively the same thing it was before and still doesn't crash your game!

Nice Suggestion.

if this is the case, then the trainer still works, it just cannot access the game any more because the tools that fix your kernel back to it's original and unmodified state are being detected and not allowed to be running by EAC, which, like I said, is effectively hijacking your computer OS from you like a rootkit or malware.

Contact EAC and tell them you don't like them hijacking your OS from tools you use. Likely they will tell you that they can change the rules and whatever any time they like AFTER you already bought the game. You agreed, I guess, to let this game and the things is uses (EAC) to do whatever it wants to your system, and block or hijack or prevent you from doing whatever it wants, otherwise you aren't allowed to play the game you paid for.

I have no suggestions. I did not write WKE. It's a tool LITERALLY used to find malware, viruses, rootkits, and remove them from your system. It's useful to reset your kernel and OS back to original state from being modified by other programs.

All of this is being done to your computer OS for a video game.

You can try this. I have no support for this, as our trainer works 100%. The problem is EAC blocking access to the game. WKE is a tool written by others to help unblock and fix your OS kernel back to normal. You can contact the author or look for assistance there.

Cal

I want to say how much I truly appreciate CH and most especially Cal! The specialized talents that Cal has brought to bear on this particular trainer are without a doubt extraordinary! I am sure I speak for many others here, when I say please accept my (our) deepest gratitude. 🙂
