Post-Installation: Critical First Launch Steps

After the update applies, do this exactly: Fixed: Dialogue audio dropping out during the "Heart

1. Launch the game once, let the shader compilation complete to 100%.
   • Warning: On HDDs, this can take 20+ minutes. On NVMe SSDs, ~4 minutes.
2. Do not skip the shader step. Pressing Esc or Alt+F4 will corrupt the shader cache, forcing a recompile on next launch.
3. Once at the main menu, exit the game completely (don't load a save yet).
4. Delete the old pipeline cache (to prevent conflicts):
   • Location: %LOCALAPPDATA%\HorizonZeroDawnRemastered\ShaderCache
   • Delete all .bin files inside.
5. Restart your PC/console (clears memory allocation tables).
6. Launch again – a second, faster shader rebuild will run (2–3 minutes). This is normal.

• NVIDIA DLSS 3.7 Integration: Updated the DLL file to reduce ghosting on Tallnecks.
• AMD FSR 3 Frame Gen: Fixed a UI flicker bug affecting the weapon wheel.
