DescriptionUE4SS(Unreal Engine 4/5 Scripting System) bundle with the necessary configurations to make it work with the latest Abiotic Factor version.
I give each bundle a separate version from the current UE4SS version to better track changes and signal updates.
Manual InstallationAs for now Vortex doesn't support the game, so you have to install everything manually.1. Download the latest bundle from
Filespage
2. Extract/unzip the zip file
3. Move and overwrite the
dwmapi.dlland the whole
ue4ssfolder to the directory:
(game root directory)\AbioticFactor\Binaries\Win64\for Steam
OR
(game root directory)\AbioticFactor\Binaries\WinGDKfor GamePass/Microsoft Store version.
For Steam users, it's usually:C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\AbioticFactor\Binaries\Win64\
For MS/Xbox, something like:C:\XboxGames\Abiotic Factor\Content\AbioticFactor\Binaries\WinGDK\or
C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\PlayStack.AbioticFactor_1.0.20061.0_x64__3wcqaesafpzfy\AbioticFactor\Binaries\WinGDK4. Verify that the
dwmapi.dlland
ue4ssfolder are in the same directory as the
AbioticFactor-Win64-Shipping.exeSee
Screenshot.
5. Done, you can download and install mods now.
This is how ue4ss directory should look like:

You have to put all UE4SS mods into the
\Win64\ue4ss\Mods\directory, even if the mod says
\Win64\Mods\.
Dedicated Server SupportFor UE4SS to work in a Dedicated Server, you have to replace the loader,
dwmapi.dllwith
version.dllfrom
Optional Filesin Files tab.
On Linux UE4SS needs Windows environment to run, you need either Proton or at least Wine.
And to add the following command as launch option:
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="version.dll=n,b" %command%
Delete crash dumps sometimesSadly, the know crashes (see Known Issues below) probably won't be fixed anytime soon. Therefore, I recommend deleting game's crash dumps once in a while to free space.1. Navigate into
C:\Users\(your windows username here)\AppData\Local\AbioticFactor\Saved\Copy and paste into explorer:%userprofile%\AppData\Local\AbioticFactor\Saved\2. Delete the whole
Crashesfolder.
3. Done.
You can do it like once a month, they don't take much space.Known Issues- Random game crashes when loading into game, leaving to main menu or closing the game. (It's annoying but shouldn't impact the game play)
- Sometimes a registered hotkey from any mod can cause a crash. Usually if you press the hotkey without issues it stays this way until the next game start.
Bug ReportIf you experience crashes or other UE4SS related issues, please provide a brief description and the content of the
UE4SS.log.
The log file is located in the
ue4ssdirectory.
