PUBG Smart Tool says 'GameLoop not found' — tool requires TAC, not old GameLoop

HighTenstore Android ConnectPUBG Mobile3 solutions

The PUBG Mobile Smart Tool shows the message "GameLoop not found. Please install GameLoop." in its launch step, even though GameLoop is clearly installed and visible in the Start menu. The Smart Tool's other operations succeed — Apply FPS, Apply Keymap, Restore DB all complete normally — but the actual game launch fails.

Tool log excerpt from a real user:

[20:40:56] System Engine Connected.
[20:40:56] Optimizing resources...
[20:41:24] Executing: BOOST FPS
[20:41:25] Applying FPS...
[20:41:25] Applying device model: ROG Phone 9 Pro...
[20:41:25] User config data was invalid. FPS was applied to host config only.
[20:41:25] Device model applied.
[20:41:25] Configuration applied. Settings are active.
[20:41:34] Executing: Launch Game
[20:41:35] GameLoop not found. Please install GameLoop.

Root cause: the Smart Tool is built for TAC (Tenstore Android Connect / "New GameLoop"), not the legacy GameLoop emulator. Users see the same "GameLoop" branding everywhere and assume the tool works on both. It doesn't — the tool's launcher detection looks for TAC's process signature, not the old GameLoop's.

Solution 1

Install TAC (the new GameLoop) instead of legacy GameLoop 64-bit. Per WhyBeKing's clarification:

"This server is for a 3rd party tool for Tenstore Android Connect (TAC / 'New GameLoop')."
  1. Uninstall your existing legacy GameLoop via Revo Uninstaller (cleans registry leftovers).
  2. Reboot.
  3. Download TAC from the link in our PUBG Smart Tool installer page.
  4. Install TAC.
  5. Re-run Smart Tool — "GameLoop not found" should be replaced by successful launch.

Don't install both old GameLoop and TAC on the same machine. They conflict on registry keys, default app handlers, and shared cache directories. The Smart Tool's launcher-detection finds the old GameLoop registry entry first and skips TAC, even though TAC is the version the tool actually needs. Pick one — TAC is the maintained one in 2026.

PUBG KR (Korean variant) on legacy GameLoop is not supported by Smart Tool. ADM reported keymap doesn't work + high graphics broken on PUBG KR via legacy GameLoop. Per WhyBeKing: "Try on TAC, should be smoother." If you specifically need PUBG KR (different content + faster patches than Global), play the official Tencent Gaming Buddy build and accept that Smart Tool features won't apply.
