Troubleshooting Gameloop Errors and Problems
Here are the best fixes for Gameloop TGB errors, loading & installing issues, crashes and more.
1. Fix Lag or FPS Drop Issues on PUBG
The Gameloopuses available resources on the PC to run. As different systems have different hardware and software specs a particular setting may not be helpful for the smooth and clutter-free running of TGB on the PC. Here are the best settings for Lag-Free gameplay. I am giving the best optimisation settings for Windows 10 but you make changes accordingly to your system based on specifications. Here are the best settings to Fix Lag or freeze Issues on Tencent gaming buddy. 1. Right Click on TBG icon and click on Open File Location. 2. Now look for the File named ‘App Market’, right-click and open Properties. 3. Here click on compatibility tab.
4. Now Under Compatibility Mode select any other lower windows version and right check on the ‘Run this program in this mode’. If you face any issues click Run Compatibility Troubleshooter and select recommended settings. 5. Also, make sure to select Run the ‘Program as Administrator‘ and hit Apply. 6. If your system is running on Windows 7 download and Install DirectX from Google Search. Win 8/10 have them pre-installed. 7. Close all the Tabs and open TBG, open settings in the TBG. 8. Here Click on Engine, select OpenGL if you have a good GPU and OpenGL+ if a strong graphics processor. And select DirectX for good CPU and DirectX+ if a very strong CPU. 9. Right, check all the boxes available but you have a dedicated GPU card like Nvidia and AMD you can select Priotorise Dedicated GPU. If not then uncheck that box. 10. Keep Anti-aliasing Close, set memory less than your device RAM and keep the resolution low or high based on system hardware specs.
- Now Click on the Game Tab, set resolution HD or SD and display quality as smoothly. Hit Save Button and enjoy the game clutter and lag-free on your PC system.
2. Loading Stuck on 98% Error
This is the second most common issue which users are facing while trying to launch the App and the Apps stocks on loading. I have come up with some of the best possible solutions for the same.
Tweak Windows Defender Settings
First, uninstall the Gaming Buddy by going to the Programs under the Control panel. Now, search for Windows Defender. Here click on Windows Defender Security Center and click on Virus and Threat Protection. Now open Configurations for protection against viruses and threats and Deactivate all the options available. Once done, go to the downloaded (if deleted download again) Tencent gaming buddy file and click on the .exe file. Before hitting the install button click on the Browse option and delete Emulator Folder if present, create a new Emulator folder and click OK. Install the App and the issue is solved. Done!
Uninstall the Antivirus App
An antivirus App may cause trouble with the loading of codes necessary for the launching of Gaming Buddy. So, it is better to uninstall the App. You can also try to relax the scanning ability of the Anti-Virus by changing the settings of the AV App to protect peripheral data of the system.
Change App Engine
The DirectX and OpenGL have different working conditions, one needs a good CPU while other a good graphics processing unit respectively. So, I recommend you to change the engine and try relaunching the emulator, in most cases the issue is solved if it is due to engine incompatibility.
Delete Temp Folder
You can find the location of the Temp folder in the diagnosis option of the TGB. At the bottom of the diagnosis box, you will see the path. Open the Temp Folder and Delete the temporary file/s. Relaunch the TGB to check if the issue is solved.
3. Fix Voice Chat | Mic Not Working | Audio Issues
This is not an error faced by few but more than 10% gamers in PUBG universe. I have found a simple fix for the same. Go to Sound Settings on your Windows. Look for App volume and device preferences under Other sound options. Make sure your TG Buddy is open in the background. If so, you will see TBG under the running Apps. Here you will see Input and Output options as Default. Just Change both to the USB device. Now right click on Sound Icon → Open Sound → go to Advanced options each time for Playback and Recording. Here untick all the options under Exclusive Mode.
If you are not able to get output through speakers just make sure drivers installed. After you turn on PUBG mobile minimise it and go to your setting » sound settings » increase media volume.

6. Fix Update Your Graphics Driver
If you see an error message saying Update Graphics Driver or Failed to initialize rendering engine. The following solution can help fix the issue.
7. Keys Not Working Problem Fix
You can reset the keys on your TBG to fix the issue
8. High Ping Issue
Change the Network
Ping does not depend on internet speeds but it depends on server response for the request sent from the mobile. An internet with low speeds but having fast response time will have low ping while an internet with high speed but having a low server response will have high Ping. So try to just change your network, switch data card, connect to a different Hotspot or Change your ISP and see if the network response is high and ping is low for smoother gameplay.
2. Change Location
A network consists of a number of intricate factors which can cause the ping to fluctuate. The location of your mobile or router is also one such factor which can cause high ping. So just try to change your location while playing the game. Look for places less crowded with objects, try playing closer to the router, change router location and play the game if possible at higher elevations in your house.
5. Change DNS Servers
Changing DNS Servers is not a very effective means to reduce the ping directly but can help to speed up the amount of time it takes to resolve a domain nameservers. Thus changing the DNS can at times help to reduce ping indirectly. Most of the devices have built-in DNS option in the setting also there are a number of apps on the Play Store which help in changing the DNS, you can try the popular DNS Changer App or Net Optimizer. this will do the trick. You can test the best DNS available based on your location and network to fix lag and reduce latency (ping time) on online games for the better gaming experience.
