If you’re having some issues when playing Horizon Zero Dawn like blurry graphics, make sure to continue reading as we’re here to help you fix this issue in the game.
Quick Blurry Graphics Fix
Step 1:
- Delete the “profile.dat” and “GraphicsConfig.ini” files.
- Find them in Documents > HorizonZeroDawn > Saved Game > Profile.
- Remove shader cache files.
- Go to steam > steamapps > shadercache.
- Also, do this in NVIDIA GL/DXCache folders in Appdata/Local and Roaming. Check both NVIDIA folders in Local and Roaming for Cache subfolders.
- If you can’t see Appdata, enable hidden files. You can find this option in Control Panel’s small icons view. It’s hidden by default.
- If this is confusing, you can look up a tutorial on Google.
Step 2:
- Open the C drive.
- Right-click and select “Properties.”
- Click on “Disk Cleanup.”
- Choose “DirectX Shader Cache” and remove it. Make sure to uncheck other checkboxes in the list.
Remember to be patient, especially during the game’s startup or loading screens. Sometimes, it might take up to 10 minutes.
Conclusion
Don’t worry about data collection, and don’t change the graphics settings in the game; they should be set up correctly for your computer. If your PC is not very powerful, the game will already favor performance by default. Also, avoid choosing “UPSCALER.” This way, you can enjoy the game with sharp 1080p textures for educational purposes!
