Issues unresolved
Crash on startup
- Some graphics cards are unable to correctly tell Hacknet what resolution they use.
- Some older graphics cards crash when scanlines are enabled by default, disabling scanlines in the
settings.txt
configuration file then starting the game resolves this issue.
- The developer is working on a permanent solution.[citation needed]
Manually add settings file[5]
|
Go to the installation folder and replace the content of settings.txt with this:
1280
1008
true
bloom: true
scanlines: true
muted: false
volume: 0.3
fontConfig: default
hasSaved: True
shouldMultisample: True
defaultLocale: en-us
drawMusicVis: True
Notes
- The first two lines are the screen resolution values. The third line contains a boolean value to toggle fullscreen mode.
- Using 1008 rather than 1024 seems to solve the black screen issue on startup.[citation needed] Adjust resolution accordingly.
|
Change compatibility settings[5]
|
- Go to the installation folder.
- Right-click
Hacknet.exe , then click on Properties.
- Go to the Compatibility tab.

Notes
