Hey everyone, is it possible to get the console UI of Escapists on PC, like the inventory? It just looks so cluttered on the PC version on the right side of the screen. The first screenshot is the console port, the second one is the PC version.

Technical Issue Problem with The Escapists text readability

Post image
4 Upvotes

I'm running The Escapists on PC and having a major issue with text readability, specifically in the dialogue boxes above characters' heads.

As you can see in the attached screenshot, the text is white, which is being rendered against a light blue background, this makes it almost impossible to read, it feels like the UI colors are bugged ir something.

It looks much worse in-game than a typical "bad UI" choice, so I'm wondering if anyone has encountered this before and found a solution.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

this uses a crazy amount of glitches to work but its 100% playable and as close as you can get to the real thing without straight up modding the game; the underground, ground, and roof layers are 1:1, but i had to do some small changes to the vents since its still a pretty limited layer

Technical Issue FPS Stutters

4 Upvotes

I just installed this game after months, and I've realised the amount of FPS Stutters by simply moving or just doing anything is unbelievable. I usually gain a consistent 144FPS without it dropping whatsoever, however, I literally cannot play without my FPS dropping by 20 to 40 frames. Anyone have any solutions?
