For those playing Hogwarts Legacy on PC, some of you have experienced one of the problems the game is suffering through at launch, and that’s the black screen issue. While Avalanche Software still has no fix for it released just yet, there is a Hogwarts Legacy black screen fix already available, and it’s listed below.
Hogwarts Legacy Black Screen Fix:
Here’s a step by step guide:
- Win+R
- enter %appdata%
- navigate out of Roaming
- and go into Local/Hogwarts Legacy/Saved/Config/WindowsNoEditor
- Open GameUserSettings.ini with your prefered editor or similar (its treated as a .txt file)
- Scroll down to [ShaderPipelineCache.CacheFile]
- beneath it, add r.ShaderPipelineCache.Enabled = 0
- should look like this:
\[ShaderPipelineCache.CacheFile\]
LastOpened=Phoenix
r.ShaderPipelineCache.Enabled = 0
- Save
Players can use “%AppData%\..\Local\Hogwarts Legacy\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor” to get to the folder as well.
Hopefully that helps, as it has worked for a few people already.
