EasyAntiCheat Crash on startup

[F48U]

Issue Type (Required):

Crash - On Launch

Issue Description (Required):

I recently had to install custom drivers as the old version my RX580 is stuck on, is no longer supported by Vulkan. So I installed modified official drivers that were made compatible with older AMD GPUs. On startup, EasyAntiCheat tells me that it does not trust said driver and the game crashes immediately.

@F48U hm, tricky if EAC is flagging the modified drivers. If possible, are you able to reinstall non-modified latest GPU drivers?

Just looked them up again and they seem to have updated their official drivers just a few weeks back. Installing those will likely fix this issue. As for the reasons I originally went for modified shaders, that remains to be seen. Just wanted to see if there might be a way to use modified drivers with EAC, as I only use them to improve performance, not to cheat. Thanks for the answer though!
