Horizon Zero Dawn PC update addresses more issues
Guerrilla Games has released a new update for the PC version of Horizon Zero Dawn.
This second update for the game continues to fix bugs and crashes that have been discovered by players since the game launched. The update addresses issues with out of sync facial animations and V-sync not turning off in borderless, and improves performance when auto-saving. Read the full patch notes below:
Crash Fixes
- Fixed an issue where some players would crash during their first game boot when the ‘game optimization’ screen is active and they ran out of disc space.
- Fixed an issue where some players would crash if they updated their video drivers after the game was already optimized previously.
- Fixed an issue where some players would crash during gameplay because of memory incorrectly being overwritten.
- Fixed an issue where some players would crash during gameplay due to a texture unstreaming bug.
Game Improvements
- Improved performance when auto-saving (e.g. when completing a quest step).
- Fixed an issue where some players experienced that V-sync wouldn’t properly turn off in borderless mode
- Fixed an issue where some players experienced out of sync facial animations due to them being locked at 30FPS.
- Reduced memory used when streaming shaders.
Other changes
- Improved crash report flow and messaging. Each crash now includes an identifier you can use to communicate with our Customer Support.
- Added more features to improve diagnostic data collection when submitting a crash report.
Horizon Zero Dawn is available now on PlayStation 4 and PC.
