Aequitas

The use of our anti-cheat client ESL Aequitas (included with ESL Wire) is compulsory!

All players must use Aequitas during their matches and afterwards upload their Aequitas archive. Failure will result in default loss!

Please test your Aequitas before the cup!

If you are using ESL Wire you can test your Aequitas by joining the Aequitas Testing team and using the open match.

If you are using standalone Aequitas you can test your Aequitas with this match link: http://www.esl.eu/uk/css/5on5/aequitas_test/match/16027433/

Common problems

If you have problems with your antivirus, see here for a fix

If you have a problem with CS:Source crashing with an error like "hl2.exe The instruction...", this can be fixed by disabling the Steam community functions in-game.

If you have "code 4" then download the standalone Aequitas and be sure to quit ESL Wire before using it!
