JohnNighthawk 51 Posted June 12, 2018 (edited) Go to your APB folder. Go to the TPI Folder inside the APB folder. Open TPI.xml with a notepad. Delete these lines <InstallerInfo> <Name>DirectX</Name> <DllRelativePath>DirectX\DirectXInstaller.DLL</DllRelativePath> <SetupFileRelativePath>DirectX\DirectX_June2010program</SetupFileRelativePath> </InstallerInfo> and The same for battleeye, not sure what exactly it looks like, but it should be the same, just with battleeye instead of direct X. <InstallerInfo> <Name>BattleEye</Name> some paths about battleeye or whatev </InstallerInfo> Works for me. Only did a bit of googling. Edited June 12, 2018 by JohnNighthawk
Delete884943468320878423 172 Posted June 12, 2018 (edited) Thanx and all... but you might consider adding this to the Guides, Tips and Strategy section. I recently had issues out of the blue with the game, and had to fully uninstall and reinstall, in order to get it fixed... i dunno, but i think this new update sometimes messes around with the game installation files or something. I never had any issues with it before 2017, when it all started: the round objective progress hud vanishing after a few rounds(Not F12), not being able to access secondary faction dailies of a district after the same rounds, the ESC button not working anymore included, all happening at random and all in a sole package. Although i'm having a silly suspicion that it might have something to do with my new keyboard Logitech G213, since that's when it started to behave like that, because i already had similar problems with it in another game. Still waiting for a major update, cuz atm seems there are more bugs than fixes. Edited June 12, 2018 by Vnight

I never had any issues with it before, other than the activity hud randomly vanishing and not being able to access secondary faction of a district after a few rounds and also ESC button not working anymore... still waiting for a major update, as atm seems there are more bugs than before. I'm guessing only admins can move it?
ElectroStingz 53 Posted June 12, 2018 John if you get a moment try the registry fix. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1w4Ko2DdgOiB_sUnFg74X5vQOUOwlyA1z/view
Acornie 490 Posted June 12, 2018 Weird, I see this thread after the issue was suddenly went away for me, maybe LO got Steam to fix the issue... or I was just lucky ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I am the source, if you do not wish to double click on the file then create it by simply pasting the following into a txt file. Quote Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\GamersFirst\APB] "directX ShipDate"="04.18.2011" Once done, save the txt file as a .reg <double click to add. If you want to check the contents of the reg file I created, open it with notepad.
