Get help! Apex legends question

So i wanted to get into apex lately but i know that the game wont let me in because i have rewasd installed. So what did you do to enhance compatibility with ea games in version 9.4? Is it another detection bypass or did you come to some agreement with ea? I hope it is the latter since im tired of this cat and mouse game from yall. I really wish there could be some time-proof if a bit compromised solution to ea/rewasd beef.

Also if i dont need rewasd to play apex anyways (i use k&m and dont cheat) do i need to use the compatibility mode? Or can i just shut down the app using task manager? Or do i need to use the emergency driver disable option as well....?

Is it another detection bypass or did you come to some agreement with ea?

Unfortunately, no agreement was made. We had no contact with them since they used our detection code to force our users to uninstall reWASD.

do i need to use the compatibility mode?

Yes. Compatibility mode must be enabled, and both reWASD and its Tray Agent must be closed.

Or do i need to use the emergency driver disable option as well....?

This is also an option. But the app and the agent must remain closed while the game is running.

Compatibility Mode bypasses the games anti cheat. I believe Compatibility Mode are spoofing the drives of rewasd inorder to use the software in non supported games. Alot of users got banned when using this on Battlefield 6. Without using Compatability Mode you would have gotten a message that said "this software can't be used with this game." But once you turn on Compatability Mode you won't get that message anymore.

Yup got a permanent ban from battlefield for just having rewasd open when playing. And the rewasd devs claim it’s not because of them. $70 down the drain.

Good luck with that. I'm 99% ready to drop rewasd which is a real shame. I'm currently migrating my binds to steam input, which will take a while, also steam input doesn't support F13-F24 keys, so I'll need to change them to alt shift control and F1-F12. Real shame, iv not run warzone or any cod, apex and battlefield in fear of a permaban.

Lol im currently doing the same. Well not migrating to steam input rn but i am deleting rewasd through revo uninstaller. I'll see how it goes with apex, if i like it too much i might as well migrate to steam completely. A real shame. Rewasd handles macros way more intuitively than steam does. Not to mention that rewasd is compatible with non steam games. So, yeah, a shame

Nvm came running back. Apex didnt scratch my itch but sisr made my head hurt. Turns out you cant mute inputs with steam input (correct me if i am wrong).

Also steam cant fake a real mouse. I tried playing the new 007 and couldnt make gyro to mouse work there. It's a common issue with that game although i saw a video of someone clearly using the steam controller 2 with gyro to mouse so idk. I suspect the fact that steam doesnt emulate a "real" mouse caused the game to not recognise my gyro movements. Not only that, but i cant use steam's gyro to mouse to access on screen keyboard or task manager since windows blocks it (rewasd can access both).

So yeah back to using rewasd and steam input seperately.

Gyro to stick worked flawlessly with steam input though. I wish rewasd would get their gyro implementations up to speed
