Hello everybody,

 

today we're releasing our in-house Gamersfirst Anti-Cheat, we have spent the last few months pouring all available resources into the project and are excited to finally release it to the public. However, this Tech is extremely advanced and is bound to have some issues so we're going to keep a list of all known issues related to GFAC in this thread!

 

Additionally, if you encounter an issue related to GFAC we would like you to post about it in this thread and try to keep unnecessary chatter to a minimum as this is not a feedback thread.

 

Known Issues:

 

  • Users get met with GFAC Communication Error C when GFAC is not installed on their main drive. (Issue identified - Fix being worked on)
  • Some users crash when selecting their EU characters. (Investigating - For now you can select an NA character first after which you should be able to log into your EU character)
  • The game does not start on Processors that do not Support AVX2 (Investigating)
  • Some users encounter the following errors when loading GFAC: 2427 - 4003 - 4004 (Investigating)

 

In your report please include the following:

 

  • A screenshot or video of the error/issue you're encountering.
  • Details on when the error/issue occurs.
  • Date and Time of the issue.
  • Are you using any sorts of file edits? (Configs)
  • Your relevant Computer Specifications such as: 
    • Processor.
    • Graphics Card.
    • RAM.
    • What kind of drive APB is installed on. (NVME/SSD/HDD)
    • Operating System.
    • Anti-Virus software. 

 

We may also reach out privately to ask for more details but the above should help us track down issues so we can fix them as soon as possible!

 

Thank you for your cooperation.

Details when error occurs: when i start APB launcher it scans all files and updates them, then shortly GFAC window appears saying Updates completed successfully. When i hit start button, APB.exe shortly appears in task manager of active processes and shortly shows mouse loading animation like its loading and then after few seconds it just vanishes from the list and nothing starts and nothing happens.
I dont get any direct message of any error. 
I excluded GFAC from my anti virus so NOD32 should be not an issue. 

I noticed GFAC installed in directory \Program Files and not in directory \Program Files(x86) where is my APB installed. Maybe that can be the issue?

Date and time of the issue: UTC time 2:10 PM Thursday, July 31, 2025

Usage of configs: I use Flaws config and edit for APBEngine file and BaseEngine file for removing cap of fps from 100 to 145 where is maxclientframerate set to = 145 in both files. 
Since multiple scanning and repairing process i started each time, I removed all those configs so game is in the vanilla default state without any configs at the moment and it still is same issue of not starting itself.

 

My Computer Specifications: 

Processor - Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2500K CPU @ 3.30GHz   3.30 GHz

Graphics Card - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 12GB

RAM - 12,0 GB

What kind of drive APB is installed on. (NVME/SSD/HDD) -  Intenso SSD ATA 1 TB

Operating System - Windows 11 Pro version 22H2

Anti-Virus software - ESET NOD32 Internet Security


Thank you in advance for any help.

When running the GFAC installer I instructed it to install to G:\GFAC .  It installed most of the files to that directory but it also dropped 4 files in C:\Program Files\GFAC the default folder

Graphics Card - AMD-based

RAM - N/A to this issue

What kind of drive APB is installed on. - N/A to this issue

My AV also quarantined GFAC as ransomware but I don't care to share which product that was, and I'm working on exceptions. It would be nice if LO would suggest AV exceptions

Also, uninstalling APB through Steam does not remove GFAC from either of the above folders, and trying to remove it from Settings -> Apps & Features on Win 10 failed
