Troubleshooting

Q: The game won't launch.
If the path to the Elin launch folder contains Japanese characters or other double-byte characters, the game may not launch.

Q: Strange characters appear on the character creation screen, or a new game won't start.
There may be corruption in the User folder. The User folder can be found at:
C:\Users\[UserName]\AppData\LocalLow\Lafrontier\Elin
Deleting the above "Elin" folder, or renaming it to something like "Elin_bk" will allow the User folder to be regenerated.

Q: I don't know how to activate the Kickstarter DLC code.
Please refer to this announcement regarding the DLC code for instructions.

Q: The background map does not display on Mac or Arm version of Windows.
Currently, we do not officially support Mac or Arm version Windows. However, since it seems the game is somewhat running on these platforms, we hope to investigate this further in the future.
For Mac Parallels, go to the virtual machine configuration and click "Hardware > Boot Order > Advanced Settings > Boot flags".
Paste the following text in the "Boot flags" field:
video.untrimmed_dynamic_cbuffers=1

Q: Textures are displaying incorrectly or appearing fragmented.
There have been reports of the above issue occurring with Intel(R) HD Graphics 3000, but the cause is currently unknown. If you experience the same issue, we would appreciate your report. Additionally, updating your graphics driver may help resolve the problem.

Q: Mods like casino slots are not working on Steam Deck or Linux.
We’ve received reports that adding WINEDLLOVERRIDES="winhttp=n,b" %command% to the launch options in properties allows the slots to work on Steam Deck.

We've also received reports that mods can be enabled by following the steps outlined in this link.
