Issues unresolved

Crash on startup

Some graphics cards are unable to correctly tell Hacknet what resolution they use.
The developer is working on a permanent solution.
Manually add settings file[5]
  1. Download this backup settings file[offline].
  2. Go to the installation folder.
  3. Copy the file to the folder, overwriting as needed.

Notes

See Change in-game resolution for instructions on how to change the resolution listed in Settings.txt.
As the "official" replacement file is offline, create a "Settings" txt-file with the follwing lines to modify resolution, fullscreen etc.:

1280
1008
true
bloom: true
scanlines: true
muted: false
volume: 0.3
fontConfig: default
hasSaved: True
shouldMultisample: True
defaultLocale: en-us
drawMusicVis: True
Note that the first two lines are the screen resolution, the true/false in the third line is for fullscreen. Using 1008 rather than 1024 solved the "black screen on startup" problem in my case. Adjust resolution accordingly.

Change compatibility settings[5]
  1. Go to the installation folder.
  2. Right-click Hacknet.exe, then click Properties from the menu which appears.
  3. Go to the Compatibility tab.
  4. Check Run in 640x480 resolution and Run this program as an Administrator.
  5. Click OK.

Notes

Uncheck Run in 640x480 resolution once you've set your desired resolution in the in-game options menu.
