  • My game closes without an error, or I'm seeing an Easy-Anti Cheat error

    If your game is closing in multiplayer or you're seeing an Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC) error message, there could be a few different causes. Crash dump files and log files can help us identify what is happening.

     

    What information is in a log file (.log)?

    Log files contain information about the programs running, why they have experienced difficulties and why they may close.

    The vast majority of the time we will ask you to submit files specific to Sniper Elite 5 but occasionally we might ask you to submit log files from related programs. This is to determine if something else perhaps caused any incidents.

    The files are only examined to establish the cause of issues and are deleted from our systems once your case is closed.

     

    How do I find my all of my Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC) log files?

    1. Press the Windows Key and the key simultaneously. This will open the 'Run' program.

    2. From here, type the following:

    %AppData%\EasyAntiCheat\

    mceclip0.png

    3. Press OK. This should take you to the location for all the log files on your computer.

    4. In this folder, you should see two folders and two Text documents. These Text documents are your Service and AntiCheatLauncher logs.

    mceclip0.png

    5. Please open a separate File Explorer window and copy these files to an accessible place on your PC (e.g. your Desktop).

    6. Please return then to the folder with your log files, and open the folder with a long string of numbers and letters (i.e. ea05d77bb45042edb08f797ae7bec1b1).

    7. In the folder, you should find a file called loader. Please copy it to the accessible place on your PC.

     

    mceclip1.png

    8. Now you have the logs we need! Please create a request using our Contact Form and provide the three files in the 'Attachments' box; or if you have an existing case with us, please attach them in a reply to your Support email!

     

    Having trouble or not seeing what you were expecting? Please let us know by submitting a request via our Contact Form or, if you have an existing case with us, by replying to your Support email. We'll do our best to help!

     

  • What are dedicated servers and why can't I see them?

    What are dedicated servers?

    Dedicated servers are multiplayer game sessions hosted by Rebellion. 

    These dedicated servers are indented to help combat some of the challenges of peer-to-peer hosting like hosts quitting early or game connection issues.

    Access to the dedicated servers is available via the Custom Games screen only, where you’ll find a new column to help players clearly identify which servers are ours. The server names are listed below:

    Servers based in the EU regions:

    • Blue Viper
    • Kraken
    • Chevalier
    • Jaeger
    • Neptune

    Servers based in the US regions:

    • Fairburne
    • Ghost
    • Cobra
    • Detroit
    • Overlord

     

    How can I see the dedicated servers?

    Available dedicated servers will appear automatically in the Custom Games screen. If you can't see them, it is likely they are currently full.

    To enable seeing full servers, you must toggle the Include Full Games filter in the Game Filters menu in the bottom right of the custom games browser.

     

     

    Then toggle the Include Full Games setting to ON. It should look like this:

     

     

    After enabling this, you should then see - Include Full Games under your Filters Active in the custom games browser.

  • How do I enable Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC) on Steam?

     

    What is Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC)?

    Easy Anti-Cheat is a cheat protection program used in Sniper Elite 5 to detect, and take action against cheaters.

  • What is Invasion Mode and can I turn it off?

    What is Invasion Mode?

    Invasion mode is a brand new style of gameplay in Sniper Elite 5 that allows you to 'invade' another player's game as an Axis Sniper, or be 'invaded' as an Allied Sniper.

    The invading Axis Sniper has the sole aim to eliminate the player while the Allied Sniper gains an extra objective: take out the invader.

    It is available in co-operative play - increasing the challenge for the Axis invader as they now have two Allies to track down, but offering greater rewards.

     

    Can I turn it off?

    Yes, it is possible to turn it off if you would prefer a solo experience!

     

    How do I turn it off?

    1. Select 'Options'

    2. Follow the list down to 'Invasion Mode' and select 'OFF' from the right-hand options

     

    TurnOffInvasionSE5.gif

  • Where can I find my save files?

    Steam users can find their saves in C:\Users\[YOUR USER NAME HERE]\AppData\Local\Sniper Elite 5\PC_ProfileSaves

     

    What save should I send?

    In your PC_ProfileSaves folder, you should find a folder with a filename full of numbers (this is your Steam ID): you can find your saves here!

    You should have a few files with the form "slotX". Each of these is a save file but they contain different types of data:

    • slot0 is the profile
    • slot1 is the profile backup
    • slot3-5 are campaign auto saves
    • slot6-29 are campaign manual saves
    • slot30 is a campaign quick save

    Please send us your Slot0 and either a campaign autosave or manual save!

  • How do I get involved in the Community Event?

    It's kill or be killed in our first ever Sniper Elite 5 Live Event. Think you've got what it takes to join us on the battlefield?

     

    Track the event here: https://sniperelite.com/marksman-event/ 

     

    Lock and load for Sniper Elite 5’s debut Community Event where we’ll be putting your skills to the test on the frontlines from Monday 11 July, 3pm BST to Monday 25th July, 3pm BST

     

    How It Works

    Simply play as you normally would to contribute to the three targets we’ve challenged you with – if you complete all 3 targets within the two week deadline, the Community will collectively unlock exclusive in-game rewards and more!

    Unlike our previous Evil Genius 2 Community Events, this event operates on a point-based system. We’ll reward each of you a set number of points depending on the type of kill you achieve – that’s right, we won’t reward you for just any old kill! This will require patience, precision and above all else, the collaborative efforts of the Sniper Elite community.

    Keep an eye on this webpage to keep track of how you’re progressing as a Community, that way you can shift your focus based on which of our three targets needs attention.

     

    The Targets

    Invasion Kills - 25 million points

    Unlocks P.K Berlin Axis scope for RSC 1918, G43 and Kar98k

    Get AI kills in the standard campaign to contribute to this objective or embrace Invasion Mode to unlock max points for taking out your Axis opponent:

    • Invading Player Kills - 125 Points
    • Allied Player Kills - 50 Points
    • AI Killsx10 - 1 Points

     

    Sniper Kills - 130 million points

    M81 Ally scope for M1 Carbine and SREM

    Put your talent to the test with this objective. Achieve headshot kills across any game mode to earn points - the longer the shot, the more points you will receive.

    • Headshot Kills Achieved: (1 point for every 10 metres)

     

    Sharpshooter Kills - 25 million points

    25% Discount on Sniper Elite Merchandise from our official Rebellion store.

    A sniper's work is solitary, silent and precise. Take out opponents in any game mode to contribute points to this objective. Hit specific body parts to achieve extra points...the testicle shot reigns supreme.

    • Testicle Shot - 15 points
    • Heart Shot – 5 points
    • Any other organ shot x10 – 1 point

     

    The Rewards

    If the Community successfully hit the three targets we’ve set in two weeks, you will unlock the P.K Berlin axis Scope, available on the RSC 1918, G43 and Kar98k, as well as the M81 ally scope, which will be available on the M1 Carbine and SREM. These will be accessible to every player on Tuesday 26 July.

    Not only that, but you’ll also unlock a 25% Discount on Sniper Elite Merchandise for a limited time via our official Rebellion store.

     

    Joining Fellow Comrades

    Don’t forget to tag us in any and all progress reports, photo mode snaps or beyond via our usual social channels. You can also connect with fellow Snipers to share all the latest tips and tricks to succeed via our official Discord server.

    That concludes our mission briefing snipers… so prepare your gear, perfect your long-shots and be ready for deployment at 3pm BST on Monday 11 July. The battlefield waits for no one!
