This is a quick guide on how to fix the issue of intense lag when using mods.
O que sabemos até agora
If you’re already using mods then you’re probably facing a huge lag when playing followed by audio not playing or loading taking 3x longer.
This happens because PD3 requires you to add “-fileopenlog” to your game start options for you to be able to play with mods, but this configuration causes performance issues. Some players says to have fixed it by installing the game on a SSD, but since not everyone has one we need a workaround for it
Começando
Primeiras coisas primeiro, remove “-fileopenlog” from your game start options
UE4SS / Allow Pak Mods
Download this mod: Mod Link
Installing
Right click PD3 on your Steam library and browse through the game files.
Dirigir a “PAYDAY3\Binaries\Win64” and extract all contents from the .zip folder you downloaded in there. Should look like this:
Configurar
Inside the mods folder you extracted there’s a “mods.txt” arquivo.
Open it then find the line that says “AllowModsMod” and replace 0 com 1
Nota pessoal: I’ve set all other mods in my .txt file to 0 and so far I didn’t got any issues ingame.
If you have any issues try setting everything to 0 except for “Keybinds” e “AllowModsMod”.
O fim
You’re all set to install mods and play.
To install mods (if this is your first time installing any) head to “PAYDAY3\Content\Paks” and create a folder named “~mods”. Then once you download your mods simply extract the .pak file inside it and you’re done.
Final Words
Thanks for reading and big thanks to Narknon on modworkshop for uploading the mod.
This whole guide was created based on my own experience, which means I hope it helps and works for you the same way it worked for me.
