Frequently encountered problems with the Fortnite cheat and how to resolve them.

"Failed to connect to Discord overlay..."

This means the Discord legacy overlay is either disabled or not running with your game.
Make sure to:
1. Open Discord settings
2. Go to Game Overlay
3. Enable "Legacy Overlay"
4. Confirm it shows up in-game when you press the overlay hotkey

Cheat menu not appearing in-game

Make sure the loader showed "Successfully loaded, please launch game" before you opened Fortnite.
Press HOME or INS once you are in the main menu — not during loading screens.
Check that Hardware Acceleration is enabled in Discord → User Settings → Advanced.
