The problem seems to be not owning the DLC so EAC is crying, but the fix is really easy!

Fix "inappropriot activity"
Go into your Elden Ring game files and create an empty file called "DLC.bdt".

example:

cd ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/ELDEN RING/Game/
touch DLC.bdt

Profit!


Big Thank You to Gearcheim, who helped me out with this problem!

Yeah, i guess there's another problem, but ever since i got my steam deck when it came out, i have that problem and i have not being able to fix it. I don't have any third party stuff like er patcher or anything. I will keep looking for a solution, but thanks for your suggestion! :er_sad:


@REito

a mi no me funcionó porque yo si tengo el DLC comprado e instalado, entonces ese archivo si existe en mi carpeta de instalacion y pesa 14 gb, entonces si lo quito o si lo reemplazo con uno vacio como dice esta sugerencia, estaria quitando el DLC de mi deck. :er_sweat:

i will comment in spanish

realmente funciona, lo probé en steamdeck...
solo tienes que buscar los archivos del juego ya sea siguiendo el camino de arriba o abriendo los archivos desde steam, click derecho crear archivo vacio y poner el nombre proporcionado arriba enter y listo

You might have another problem or you use some custom stuff like ER-Patcher which will flag you always. Can't really help without any information and I don't own or use a Steam Deck so I cant really check.
Maybe you find something on ProtonDB that might help. Sorry

@smemmo because someone didn't account for the fact that some people don't buy the DLC and they put a file check somewhere in. So the check flags a missing file and assumes you're cheating. That's what my theory is.
