🐛 Troubleshooting

  • Antivirus false positive: Add the game folder to exclusions.
  • Missing DLLs: Install Visual C++ Redistributable 2015-2022 and latest DirectX runtime.
  • Game won't start: Run as administrator, disable fullscreen optimizations, update GPU drivers.
  • Multiplayer not working: Make sure all players use the same build version and connect via LAN or the same P2P lobby.
