Important
(Oct 4, 2024) Easy Anticheat Enforcement
- CIG has enabled EAC enforcement on the PTU. We have an experimental fix that also works on LIVE and it needs testing.

Note
(Nov 30, 2024) Joysticks not detected on Wine 9.22 and newer
- Wine 9.22+ has enabled HIDRAW by default for VKB and Virpil devices.
- If your joystick/throttle is no longer being detected by the game, follow our instructions to enable hidraw access.
Warning
(Apr 29, 2024) Vulkan Beta: Game fails to launch

Caution
(Oct 9, 2023) Crash when taking shield damage in-game
- There is a shield rendering bug that causes the game to crash. It seems to affect 1000 series cards.
- There is currently no known workaround other than switching cards. We recommend AMD.
