Follow this guide on Steam to fix many bugs like black facial textures or buggy water puddles, and to improve smoothness and FPS up to 200% in some locations on modern PCs: |
Enable Xbox UI
- While using the Xbox UI accessing the game options will make the game crash, so either make sure you're happy with your settings or temporarily switch back to the PC UI while you access them.
- Enabling the Xbox UI will allow you easier navigation through the game and the menus while using a controller, however it has to be switched to every time you open the game.
