--- Comment #15 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net --- Hello folks,
to clear up a misconception: does this even work in Windows if you start the game without the launcher from console?
After reading through the EOS SDK documentation and some example code I think the launcher is *supposed* to pass authentication method and parameters via command line. Something like this:
--- snip --- foobar.exe -AUTH_LOGIN=unused -AUTH_PASSWORD=<hash> -AUTH_TYPE=exchangecode -epicapp=Cardinal -epicenv=Prod -EpicPortal -epicusername="myusername" -epicuserid=<hash> -epiclocale=en -console --- snip ---
If you don't do this and start the game outside of the launcher, the failure makes sense.
@OP Please use the EPIC games launcher and report back.
Regards
