- Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) support status is unknown.
Issues unresolved
Crash just before level starts
- Happens simultaneously to all connected players with an access violation in
AK::MemoryMgr::SetMonitoring
- Can possibly be worked around by waiting some seconds before pressing ready, after loading has finished for everyone[3]
Issues fixed
Black screen on start up or random crashes during the game
- Don't run PAYDAY with Teamspeak 3 or Ventrilo - both will likely cause the game to fail to load.
- ALIENWARE users make sure you have AlienFX installed.
Game resolution doesn't look right despite setting screen native one
Change renderer settings file[citation needed]
|
- Go to
%LOCALAPPDATA%\PAYDAY\
- Edit
renderer_settings.xml with a text editor
- There are two lines of text. On the bottom line, find
resolution= and make sure that's followed by e.g. 1920 1080 .
- Finally, then look for
refresh_rate= and make sure that's followed by e.g. "60".
