MrDario Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 Here's a setup tutorial and a brief list of common procedures to follow to avoid problems such as crashes or failed injections. If you're having issues, make sure to read everything below. This thread is a work in progress and will be subject to changes and additions as the time goes. What's in here (in order of appearance): - Launcher setup & menu injection - Menu commands keys - Troubleshooting practices & advices - Common Errors troubleshooting Setup & Menu Usage Setup of the W1TCH Launcher & Menu Injection: Automatic Installation (recommended): https://w1tch.net/topic/1579-w1tch-launcher-autoinstaller/ Manual Installation: Pre-requisite: In order for the W1TCH Launcher to work correctly, .NET Core 3.1 is required, Download Here You can download the official W1TCH Launcher from Downloads Section [ 1 ] - Create a folder anywhere on your PC (Desktop will be fine, for example)IMPORTANT: The path to the launcher must ONLY contain Latin characters! (Unsupported characters include - Cyrillic, Arab, Chinese, Korean, [...] full list here ) For example, if your OS Username contains non-latin characters, make sure to put the Launcher's Folder before, even in C:\ will be fine. [ 2 ] - Unzip the content of WLauncher.zip in the folder you precedently created [ 3 ] - Add an Anti Virus / Windows Defender exclusion for the launcher's folder and WLauncher.exe [ 4 ] - Also add an exclusion for the DIS2RBED folder located in C:\ProgramData\ If you don't know how to add an exclusion here's a list of anti viruses (click on the name to get to the relative tutorial's page): Windows Defender - Kaspersky - Bitdefender - Norton - McAfee - ESET - Avast - AVG - Malwarebytes Adding an exclusion is a must, since injection issues (game crashing, menu not injecting at all) are mostly addressed to antivirus protection. Running the launcher & injecting the menu: [ 1 ] - Open the Launcher as Administrator (Right click on WLauncher.exe -> Run as Administrator) and login using your website Username & Password [ 2 ] - If the Inject button is grayed out, make sure to have the latest version downloaded, click on the "Download" button or alternatively the "Check update" button. NOTE: The Inject button will stay grayed out until you start GTA. [ 3 ] - IMPORTANT: Start up the game and load in Story Mode first, once FULLY loaded in, you can press the Inject button on the W1TCH Launcher. [ 4 ] - Once the Injection is successfull (it takes around 15-30 seconds at most), press F4 in-game to open the menu. Menu command keys: F4 - Show/hide the menuUp-down arrows (↕) - Move up/down within the menuLeft-right arrows (↔) - Select values / increment & decrement valuesEnter - Enter / confirm / set valuesBackspace - BackShift+Enter - Enter values manually/ (Numpad) - Activate NoclipF5 - Teleport to waypointF6 - Teleport to current objective (if possible)F10 - Save current menu settingsF12 - Set Hotkey Troubleshooting General practices to follow in case injection fails / your game crashes: [ * ] - Download and install the latest supported VCredist version from the official Microsoft website: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170 [ * ] - Delete the DIS2RBED folder located in %programdata% ( C:\ProgramData\ ) [ * ] - Set the GTA graphics to DirectX 11 and if possible Windowed (Borderless/non), eventually you might want to set the graphics to the lowest settings, this might help in case of crashes but it's not required. [ * ] - Pause Game On Focus Loss should be off (GTA Settings -> Graphics, scroll all the way down and toggle OFF) [ * ] - Disable any overlays that could cause conflict with the menu, (Discord, Xbox, Nvidia ... ). [ * ] - Close any program/application that could directly cause conflict with the game & the menu, such as RAM Cleaners, Game Boosters, Debugging softwares, VMwares, Virtualization Softwares, Sandboxes... [ * ] - Disable Hyper-V Tutorial Here [ * ] - Verify the game files through your launcher (Steam/Epic/Rockstar). [ * ] - If you have a controller plugged in, it is worth a try to unplug it and after that, inject the menu. You may re-plug the controller after the injection is successful. [ * ] - Make sure that your drivers are up to date. [ * ] - Make sure that your CPU supports SSE2 Instructions. Check your CPU model via website like https://www.cpu-world.com/ or applications like CPU-Z. Generally this is supported in all the modern CPUs and even older ones (Intel Core 2/3rd Gen for example), you might still want to make sure that your CPU does support SSE2 in case you're having crashes and all the other troubleshootings don't work. [ * ] - If you are using a Cloud PC / Virtual Machine of any type, the menu won't work. Dealing with Launcher & D2 console errors: "Authorization already granted" - This error means that you are already signed in from another device, remember that you cannot use the menu on two different devices/PCs at the same time. "Authorization Denied" - Password or Login error. Make 100% sure that you're using the correct password, if you're unsure you can change password via Settings . If the password is correct but the error is still happening, you may want to try using your email as login instead of the username. "Client version needs updating" - An update is required, pretty self explanatory. Usually the Launcher alerts the user when an update is available. Also could happen during server maintenances. "You are denied access" - No license. In order to use DIS2RBED you must purchase a license. "You cannot use this here" - HWID (Hardware ID) mismatch. At the moment DIS2RBED can be binded to one HWID only, if you used the menu on another PC/device of yours and are trying to use it on a different one, you must reset your HWID, you can do so via Keys Management & HWID Area . Click on the "Reset HWID" button on the bottom of the page.REMEMBER: Sharing your w1tch account with someone else goes against our Terms of Service, and will result in a suspension of your account & license(s). "Failed to login" - Your W1TCH Launcher version is outdated. Make sure to download the latest one from Downloads Section Still having issues?
