Environment check

The first time you open the control hub it checks your computer, emulator and game, and explains anything that needs fixing. Run it again any time with Environment check in the hub. It only looks and never changes anything.

Below is each check and what to do when it doesn't pass.

CPU supports AVX2

The CPU does not support AVX2, so the plugin cannot run. This PC's CPU is too old (roughly pre-2013, or some Celeron / Pentium models). Use another PC, or ask the developer for a plugin build for older CPUs.

Plugin native\la_rust.pyd loads

Plugin native\la_rust.pyd is missing: the zip was not fully extracted, extract the whole folder again. Plugin failed to load: most likely a runtime library is missing (see the runtime item) or security software blocked it. Do not turn off Windows security features; install the runtime first and try again.

Text-reading / map model files present

Text-reading / map model files are missing: extract the whole folder again.

Microsoft Visual C++ runtime

The Microsoft Visual C++ runtime is missing: download and install "Microsoft Visual C++ 2015–2022 Redistributable (x64)" (vc_redist.x64.exe) from Microsoft's website, then reopen the hub.

BlueStacks 5 installed

BlueStacks 5 not found: download and install BlueStacks 5 from the BlueStacks website, install Last Asylum in it and log in once by hand, then reopen the hub.

ADB connects for each account

adb not found: it comes with BlueStacks 5 (the helper uses its HD-Adb); if it is installed elsewhere, fill in adb_path under Settings > General in the hub. No emulator address (device): fill in device under this account's Settings > General (the first BlueStacks instance is usually 127.0.0.1:5555). ADB cannot connect: start the emulator first; in BlueStacks Settings > Advanced turn on Android Debug Bridge (ADB) and make sure the port shown there matches device (127.0.0.1:port).

Emulator resolution 720×1280, 320 DPI

Wrong resolution: in BlueStacks Settings > Display choose portrait 720×1280 and 320 DPI pixel density, save and restart the emulator (the helper recognises the screen at this resolution). DPI is not 320 (reminder): BlueStacks Settings > Display > pixel density 320 DPI.

Game installed in the emulator

Game not installed: install Last Asylum from the emulator's Play Store, open it and log in once by hand.

Windows OCR has English (United States)

Windows OCR has no English (United States). Windows Settings > Time & language > Language & region > Add a language > English (United States), tick Optical character recognition, then reopen the hub. (Used to read squad status and multi-line text; the helper still runs without it, but those reads will be less accurate.)

Game language (reminder, not a failure)

Please use English as the game language: the helper recognises the English interface; in the game choose avatar > Settings > Language > English (the helper also switches it in the game settings when it notices the wrong language).
