Essential improvements

Hyperresolution Neptunia

PCGamingWiki mirror of newest version
Game's resolution options only go up to 1920x1080. With fullscreen game always uses desktop's resolution despite selected resolution option and resolution overall does not go above roughly 1080p.[3][4] This may become problematic for low end machines as resolution is only graphical option to get more performance and high end will get blurry visuals.
With this mod it's possible to force game's renderer to use specific resolution. This means it's possible to improve performance with lower values, get better visuals when using desktop's native resolution and use it for downsampling as when using higher resolutions.

Issues unresolved

Analog stick deadzone and axial direction lock

Analog sticks have huge deadzones, which make analog input "lock" to axial directions.
The issue was fixed on second game, but was never patched for the first one.

3D models have transparent hair

This seems to be mostly issue with GPUs not supporting game's OpenGL version. Make sure your machine meets minimum system requirements and GPU drivers are up to date.

Game will crash if not installed on C: drive

Users have reported crash at launch that is alleviated if/when game is reinstalled on their C: drive.

Issues fixed

Launching and cutscene issues

Developer has acknowledged the issue and patch has been released.[6][7]
In most cases codec packs like Combined Community Codec Pack (CCCP), Kawaii Codec Pack (KCP) or K-Lite are causing problems.[8][9]
Some game overlays cause similar problems e.g. Raptr/AMD Gaming Evolved.[10] Disable any extra overlays.
OBS makes game crash if streaming and cutscene starts. There's no known workaround.

Running in Windows XP compatibility mode may also fix the issue.

Crashing after battles

Developer has acknowledged the issue and patch has been released.[11]
Game sometimes crashes after battles, running in Windows XP compatibility mode fixes this issue for most.

Can't bind right analog stick

Some users seem to have issue with binding right analog stick of controller for some reason. It's still possible to do it manually and it should work while playing.
