Liar’s Bar is a multiplayer online experience where deception and bluffing are key to victory. Like the gritty, sketchy bar you see in the movies, you can test your skills in high-stakes games like Liar’s Dice and Deck. Liar’s Bar, so far, looks to be a perfect game to enjoy with friends and family with mind games, lies, and unexpected turns. However, as the game is still in Early Access, some issues and bugs are to be expected. One such issue that players have encountered is the red screen problem that seems to occur after changing the resolution in the game. In this guide, we’ll explore this red screen issue and possible fixes.
According to reports, the red screen issue occurs when players attempt to change the resolution in Liar’s Bar. Specifically, switching from a resolution like 1920×1080 to 1366×768 causes the entire screen to turn red, with no visible buttons or options to interact with. Even after uninstalling and reinstalling the game, the problem persists, leaving players stuck with a red screen and unable to navigate the game. So, is there any official fix? What about the usual suggested ones? Well, we have it all for you!
Liar’s Bar Red Screen After Resolution Change Issue: Is there any fix yet
A developer has responded to a player report regarding the red screen issue, acknowledging the problem and confirming that the team is aware of it. They also suggested a workaround, which we have discussed below along with other potential fixes shared by players in the community.
First Steps
Sometimes simply restarting the game and the device can help reset the graphical display settings. After restarting, try running Liar’s Bar as an administrator. To do this, right-click the game’s shortcut or icon. Select Run as Administrator from the dropdown menu. This will make sure the game has proper permissions and might prevent display errors.
Devs Response
In response to the red screen issue, a developer, Bad Dog, suggested a quick workaround on the Liar’s Bar Steam Discussion forum. They advised affected players to press F7 while on the main menu, which should reset the display and potentially fix the screen issue. This simple action may help restore normal visuals without the need for further troubleshooting so try it first!
Registry Workaround
If the dev-recommended workaround doesn’t resolve the issue, a more detailed registry-based workaround is available for your help. Here is how you can do it
- Press Windows + R to open the Run dialog box.
- Type regedit and press Enter to open the Registry Editor.
- Navigate to the following path:
- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\CurveAnimation\LiarsBar\Graphics
- Delete the entire Liar’s Bar folder in the registry.
- Close the Registry Editor and restart the game.
By deleting this registry folder, the game will reset its graphical settings, potentially resolving the red screen issue when the game restarts. This is by far the most effective fix and will likely fix the issue for you as well.
Update your GPU drivers
Another possibility is that the issue might be related to the GPU (Graphics Processing Unit). So, make sure that your GPU drivers are up to date. Outdated drivers can sometimes lead to graphical issues. Head over to the official website of your GPU manufacturer (Nvidia/AMD) and look for the model you use. If an update is available, download and install it. With your GPU drivers up to date, it is time to check if the red screen still persists.
Verify and Reinstall
Try checking the game for corrupted or missing files. To do so via Steam, head to your Steam Library and right-click on Liar’s Bar. Select Properties, and then head over to the Installed Files tab. Here, select the Verify Integrity of Game files option. After the scan is completed, launch the game and check if the issue persists. Finally, if nothing else works, try reinstalling the game altogether.
With those workarounds, we hope that you were able to get past the red screen issues and enjoy the mind games with your friends in Liar’s Bar. For more gaming guides and news, keep visiting DigiStatement. Also, click here to find out how to fix the blue screen issues in New World Aeternum.
