External loader setup
Start with the game closed, prepare Discord's legacy overlay, then launch when the loader tells you.
The External loader runs on your 64-bit Windows gaming PC. Discord desktop must be running with its legacy in-game overlay enabled. Linking Discord in your Limitless account is separate from this overlay setup.
Before the first load#
- Use the current External Loader from Downloads and an active External license.
- Close the game and let its anti-cheat finish closing before a fresh load.
- Open Discord desktop. A browser tab is not the desktop app.
- In Discord's overlay settings, set Enable overlay to OFF, Enable legacy overlay to ON, and the game's own overlay toggle to ON.
- Check the cheat on Status.
Load, then open the game#
- Open the External loader and sign in.
- Select the game and its license, then load once.
- Leave the game closed while the loader prepares it.
- When the loader says Setup complete and asks you to open the game, launch it.
- Wait while it detects the game and Discord overlay. Do not restart the game during that step.
A later load can reconnect to an already-running game when the required runtime is present. Do not use that reconnect path as the first-load order; follow the loader's message.
Common messages#
- Open Discord before launching: start the desktop app and retry.
- A game or Easy Anti-Cheat opened during deployment: close them and restart the fresh-load flow.
- Waiting for the game: setup is ready; open the selected game now.
- Discord overlay unavailable: check the three switches above, restart Discord and the game as instructed, then relaunch the loader.
- Launch timeout: run the loader again when ready to play.
Use Rust External or Apex External for game settings. Keep the exact error for support.
