The chat, player list, connection status and settings are an overlay that draws with Direct3D 11. The launcher starts the game with -rdevice dx11 for it.
- Always start the game from the Haulora MP launcher, not from Steam or a shortcut of your own.
- On another renderer (DirectX 12, Vulkan, OpenGL) the overlay stays off.
- Other overlays that hook into the game's drawing can get in the way. Try again with them closed.
