❓ FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q: Why does the game crash after installing the mod?

A: This may happen due to force-closing the game with Alt+F4 or changing device settings while the game is running. You can send the logs from

`C:\Users\\AppData\LocalLow\6 Faces Team\DEPO\player.log`

to a GitHub Issue or directly to me on Discord/X: makordikrom.

Q: Why do commit names sometimes seem meaningless?

A: Occasionally, during minor or quick commits, I might use random words as commit names. In releases and important commits, I always provide meaningful comments.

Q: How to open voicechat menu?

A: Press LCtrl in the game, then press Q or another assigned key. You can keep voicechat menu open without opening online interaction menu, even if you don’t interact with it. However, if you want to interact with voicechat menu, the online interaction menu or the pause menu must be open.

Q: Can I completely disable voice chat?

A: Yes. In the mod settings, you can turn off both voice transmission and receiving audio from other players.

Q: Why voicechat does not work and menu does not open?

A: This may occur if CSCore.dll is not correctly placed in the BepInEx/core folder or if your system does not grant microphone permissions. Also, make sure the correct audio device is selected in the mod settings.

Q: Is voice activation based on microphone volume planned?

A: Yes. We already have a prototype for volume threshold, but the feature is not fully completed and requires further development.
