Overlay Not Showing or Not Working

Updated over 2 weeks ago

Overlay doesn't appear when pressing hotkey

Basic checks

  • Make sure the overlay is enabled in WeMod Settings

  • Confirm you're using the correct hotkey (default is Alt + W)

  • Try changing the hotkey to a different key combination

    • You can change the Overlay hotkey under Settings > Customization> Overlay hotkey

  • Ensure WeMod is connected to your game and you're in gameplay (not in menu)


Game display mode

  • Switch your game to Windowed or Borderless Windowed mode

    • Overlay may not work in Exclusive Fullscreen mode

    • This fix resolves most visibility issues


Graphics settings (NVIDIA users)

  • Open NVIDIA Control Panel3D SettingsProgram Settings

  • Locate and select WeMod in the app list

  • Set "CUDA - GPUs" to None

  • Disable "Antialiasing - FXAA"

  • Apply changes and restart WeMod

Disable conflicting Overlays

Other overlays may interfere with WeMod’s overlay:

  • Steam Overlay

  • Discord Overlay

  • GeForce Experience Overlay

  • Any other screen capture or monitoring tools

Temporarily disable these to test for conflicts.

Alternative control methods

If the overlay still doesn’t appear:

  • Use Alt + Tab to switch between WeMod and your game

  • Set up hotkeys in WeMod Settings for your most-used mods

  • Use WeMod Pro Remote to control mods from your mobile device (Pro users only)

The overlay is an optional tool. You can still enjoy all WeMod features and mods even with the overlay disabled.
