Saint's Handy Dandy FAQ
Welcome! Today, to put it simply i'm going to bring you a neat little guide, filled with all the Answers, Fixes, Workarounds, and Sarcasm you've come to love from good ole Saint Walker!
To begin: Congratulations! You are one of the few people who are smart enough to look at stickied links and use the search bar! Woot! [new4.fjcdn.com]


Lets Begin With the Most Common ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
Viruses. Everyone knows about 'em, they're very very not good. HOWEVER: HoxHUD is in NO WAY infected with a virus and (If you practice common Internet safety and NOT click on all the random ads that you may see while downloading HoxHUD) you will not collect one from downloading it. Any warning your computer gives you about HoxHUD harming your computer is unwarrented. Anti-Viruses that flag HoxHUD will delete the "Meat" of HoxHUD. To prevent this, simply provide your Anti-Virus an exception. If your computer warns you, and not your Antivirus, you can simply tell it to retain the file from the same popup your computer provided to warn you. I repeat: HoxHUD is not a virus, it is a false positive .


Common Issues
Many people experience crashing on the beginning of a day in a heist, obviously this can lead to frustration. Just imagine: You're on Day 3 of Rats... day 1 you made 7 bags of meth, day 2 went off without a hitch, you got every last bit of loot concieveable (Including the cash bundle under the gutter drain), but as Day 3 begins... the black screen... turns into your desktop. Payday 2 crashed. MOTHER ♥♥♥♥♥♥ REALLY!? ALL THAT WORK, JUST TO CRASH AND WASTE ALL THAT TIME!!!! I GIVE UP. I'M DONE. ABSOLUTELY ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ DONE. NO MORE PAYDAY 2. SCREW THIS!
Okay, enough imagination.
Anyway, to fix the beginning-of-a-day crashes, it's very simple. Go to your HoxHUD folder and delete the HoxHUDInitialized.mp3. This fixes almost every instance of start-of-day crashing.

Please remember that HoxHUD now does have an options menu ingame, you no longer need to edit your files for every small thing.


Magical Rainbow Lasers
These are a stream secret. Do not ask for them on the forums, and don't give out information about them lightly. You can go to Twitch.tv and join a stream to learn how to activate them.


Downloading
Remember that you MUST be a part of the HoxHUD GROUP to use HoxHUD. http://steamcommunity.com/groups/HoxHud/discussions/1/620695877120340941/


Glitchy Infoboxes
Use the Keyboard, and not your mouse, to edit the “Number of Infoboxes Per Row” option.

Crashing After Mission End
If you crash after ending a mission on teh exp screen, try turning off the auto-continue on end screen feature in your HoxHUD options.

How to Find Your Crashlog
If you are running Windows 8 or anything later: move your mouse to the upper right so that the sidebar menu opens. You want to click on "Search". Type in the search bar that appears: %LocalAppData%. This will immediately take you to your version of the File Explorer. From there click on "Payday 2". Once in Payday 2, find the notepad document "Crashlog". Do not paste the entire thing, just hte crashes that are pertinent, such as the last two or three. You can verify by date which are the important ones.

If you are running anything earlier than Win8, simply move your mouse to the lower left, click on the Windows button, and type %AppData% into the search bar there. This will take you to the Roaming file and you can continue the process above from there.

HoxHUD Disclaimer:
HoxHUD is an incomplete mod for Payday 2. We do not garuntee that HoxHUD is compatible with your computer, any other mods, or clients you are using. Wine-Bottled Payday 2 is not supported actively, hacked clients are not supported, and any mods that you have that run in conjunction with HoxHUD can cause crashing. To better your HoxHUD experience, read the forums and atttempt to keep redundant modding to the ABSOLUTE minimum.
If you have any questions, remember there's a search bar for the forums that will probably get you answers, whereas reposting bull that we've already answered will result in Saint verbally beating the ever-living ♥♥♥♥ out of you with a hard-backed, unabriddged copy of Homer's "The Odessey"

Final Thoughts
  • Don’t bug Moderators just because ♥♥♥♥’s broke. Go on the forums and use the search bar, failing that post a discussion don’t bug the mods directly.
  • Don’t post a discussion that legit just says ‘♥♥♥♥’s Broke”. We Need Information. When does your error occur, are you meeting all the system requirement, maybe post one of the crashlogs or a screenshot of your PD2 folder somewhere for us to examine.
  • The Pit of Stupidity is full of trolls, poke with a stick at your leisure.

I always wondered how and why HoxHud checks to see if a user is a member of the HoxHud group or it breaks itself.

It works via Payday's communication to Steam, and it is this way so A. Others can't steal from Oli and B i'm assuming Oli gets something out of it

Delete the mp3 file in your directory. Though having it removed at the beginning would be convinient.

A. All the cheating sites already have code dumps of all the worthwhile HoxHUD features.
Too late.

B. It's dumb.

All the cheating sites have different versions of the worthwhile HoxHUD ffeatures, they are not the same code, i've seen the innards of both. And to Oli it matters quite a bit so your opinion on it means nothing.
