Hello, in this thread I'm gonna give some fixes for common issues with the game and Launcher itself.

1- False Positive Issues; Sometimes, the Launcher can be flagged as a potential unwanted software, a false positive. Every new launcher version, we are sending to Microsoft to make a analysis and whitelist the launcher, but sometimes your computer or local Windows Defender won't have access to the latest version of database and make the Launcher be flagged as false positive, so we truly recommend players to add the game folder and the launcher as an exception in the antivirus' settings.

2 - Launcher not opening and Infinite Update Loop; This is happening due to the missing of a lib for the game. To fix it, you just need to download and install Microsoft .NET Framework version 4.8 or above. You can find the link here

3 - Error during the launcher update; Download the updater.exe put in your game folder and open the program, after that, your launcher will be properly updated.

4- Error Checking for Update: The underlying connection was closed; This is something in your internet provider or firewall blocking our Cloudflare storage services for some reason, a WorkArround to fix it, is by downloading, installing and connecting the Cloudflare Warp VPN which is 100% free and made by Cloudflare themselfs. (You can use any other VPN that you prefer).

Remember to connect your WARP after installation;

5- 0xc000142 error;
  1. This is mostly likelly due to the lack of a proper Visual Redistributable version, please download and install the Visual Redistributable All-In-One and open the install_all.bat.
  2. If you stay with the error even with the VSR All In One installed, please, install the following .dlls in your game folder; 0x0000142 Error Fix
  3. Disable HD Graphics
  4. Disable the Windowed Mode
  5. Remember to open the launcher as administrator.

6- Creating Application Failed;
This error gonna be fixed in a next launcher update patch, and is happening in only some specific hardwares. You can fix it by just let the error opened, and click in Play again in your Launcher.

7- I'm receiving ???????? right after I click in Play -
Please, do the following steps;

  • Update your Drivers
  • Install Directx9
  • Ensure that you are not playing the game in a external HDD or a very slow HardDrive, this could cause issues.
  • Remember, you need to extract the .zip files in a folder before opening the game, do not try to open the launcher direct in the .rar
    Only open the game through the Launcher.
  • Do not extract the folder in your desktop, extract into C: or D: driver in your computer, recommended: Program Files.
  • Try Disabling the HD Graphics options in your Launcher Settings.
  • Test between windowed or fullscreen mode, it can be changed in the launcher settings.
  • Restart your computer
  • Open the Launcher as Administrator
  • Click in verify files in your Launcher settings.

Every time I try to download the alternate launcher, I keep getting trojan warnings. Should I assume those are false positives?
Quick edit: I was using the dbo exe from the start before I looked here and didn't realize the existing launcher was even in here before seeing the false positive, I may be a little blind.

Hello, some false positives may happen in some computers, we are in touch with majority of antiviruses, and we need to send every new launcher version to they analyze manually and whitelist the launcher. This proccess can can take some time.

Hello! Sorry if this isn't the right place to post this, but the game is running at 1 fps on the title screen. Is there something I can do to fix that?

Hi, low FPS issues for what we've seen in our Discord support, is related to the game folder be in the desktop.

We recommend putting your game folder in the Program Files of your computer.

I'm not the most computer saavy. How do I do thar?
It depends which antivirus are you using.

There's some tutorial in the youtube depending on your antivirus "How to add a folder or a file to exception to antivirus"

After do that, you can open the file updater.exe, that he will download a new launcher for you.

Still nothing
im having the same issue
For those with the 0x0000 error, after some extensive testing, we find out the missing .dlls that was causing the issues.


Please, download this file and extract in your game folder and then open the launcher, this specific issue should be fully fixed.
