Guide forArcane WARDOGS
Requirements
Installation Steps
Check status and requirements
Check the product status on Arayas before every session. Do not run an old loader while the status is Updating or Outdated. Confirm the Steam version, Windows 10/11 x64, and at least 12 GB of RAM.
Prepare the system and overlay
Restart the PC and close unnecessary overlay tools. The official Arcane guide requires one overlay: Discord with Overlay and Hardware Acceleration enabled, or Medal TV. Do not run both. Current developer guide: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1G0FXceLJ1RvIxUX8--tll-667gaILzkKG97ftfRtgtc
Get the key
After payment confirmation, the key is shown automatically in the order and sent to the checkout email. Copy it without leading or trailing spaces. The period starts after the first successful loader activation.
Download Arcane Loader
Download the current Arcane Loader only from the verified mirror: https://mega.nz/folder/SFEijIYB#ItpPdnVINK3H-rQXK6DJjw Mirror 2 — Yandex Disk: https://disk.yandex.ru/d/68JncC0ROmFEzA Create a dedicated folder with a short ASCII-only path. Do not use files from third-party messages or unofficial mirrors.
Update the loader and enter the key
Run the downloaded file as administrator. Wait for the automatic update, then launch the new file. Paste the key with the right mouse button in the CMD window and press Enter. The loader closes automatically after a successful load.
Launch WARDOGS
After the loader closes, launch the game through Steam in windowed or borderless mode. Do not switch windows until the menu appears. The official guide says it appears automatically in about 1–2 minutes.
Open the menu and save a config
Open or close the menu with Home or Insert. Enable features gradually, begin with conservative settings, and save your own config. Use End to unload fully.
End the session correctly
Unload with End first, then close the game. After a game update, wait for a working Arcane status and download a fresh loader using the button in this guide.
Contact Arayas support if an error persists
Open the chat or a support ticket on the Arayas website. Include the order number, Windows version, exact error text, and a screenshot. Do not publish the key or send it to third parties.

Troubleshooting
Confirm at least 12 GB of RAM, close unnecessary startup programs, and restart the PC. If it persists, attach a screenshot to an Arayas support ticket.
Run Steam without administrator rights, keep only the selected overlay, and close other overlay tools. Restart the PC and repeat the steps.
Check windowed or borderless mode, overlay settings, and the current product status. Do not use an old build after a game patch.
The CPU does not support the required AES instruction set. Do not bypass the check; contact Arayas support with the order number.
Match the exact error against the current official Arcane guide. Change BIOS settings only if you understand the impact; otherwise contact Arayas support.
Do not use an old build. Check the product status, wait for an Arcane update, restart the PC, and download the current loader again.
