Prepare the Required Overlay

Enable a supported overlay before injecting Ancient.

Ancient needs a supported overlay running before you inject.

NVIDIA GPU

NVIDIA cards can use the NVIDIA App overlay or SteelSeries. GeForce Experience does not support fullscreen in-game.

  1. Install the NVIDIA App.

  2. Open Settings → General and enable IN-GAME OVERLAY.

Full steps: NVIDIA Overlay Setup.

AMD GPU

AMD cards support SteelSeries only.

  1. Install SteelSeries GG.

  2. Open Settings → GENERAL → General and enable Sonar.

  3. Open SONAR → Shortcuts and assign F7 to Master - Volume Up.

  4. Press this key before you inject.

Full steps: SteelSeries Sonar Overlay Setup.

Important

Set Rust to Borderless Fullscreen, not Fullscreen Exclusive. Fullscreen Exclusive can crash the game while the menu initializes.
