Resolution Issues
Some users have encountered issues such as not being able to set their native resolution; the game resetting their chosen resolution to a lower one; or the game's maximum available resolution being lower than their monitor's native resolution.[4] Such cases may be caused by the presence of multiple monitors attached to the computer, or attempting to play the game on an attached TV where larger resolutions may not be available. Possible solutions include unplugging any extra monitors[5] or setting the multi-monitor display mode in Windows to "Computer Only".
If the game won't show your native resolution and you are playing on a 4K TV with HDR, you will have to turn off HDR on the TV (turning off HDR in Windows won't work), and then the game will allow you to select a higher resolution from the in-game options.

Issues fixed
Crash on startup
Install dependencies[citation needed]
|
- Go to
install in the installation folder.
- Run the installers located there and try installing/launching again.
- If the problem still persists and refers to a missing
PhysXLoader.dll , install the latest NVIDIA PhysX System Software and manually copy the files from C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\PhysX\Common to the Metro 2033 installation folder.[7]
- If you keep seeing
nvcuda.dll related errors in the Event viewer (Windows Logs > Applications), copy the nvcuda.dll from C:\Windows\system32 into the game installation directory. If that doesn't help, try an older version of nvcuda.dll (such as 6.14.13.142 which can be found on ddl-files.com).
|
Disable Lucid Virtu MVP control panel[citation needed]
|
If you're running Lucid Virtu MVP, you will need to disable the control panel entirely, not just uncheck Metro 2033 from the application list.
|
Correct Windows date and time settings[8]
|
Crash during Depot level
How to fix[citation needed]
|
This may be due to crouching while your companion is being dragged off the cart. Just don't do that.
|
Game crash after level loading
Restart the chapter[citation needed]
|
Vertical black bar lines appear
Disable Advanced DOF in DirectX 11 Options
|
Switch from DirectX 11 to 9[9]

Deactivate second monitor[citation needed]
|
Mouse sensitivity issues
- The game applies different sensitivities for vertical and horizontal movement. It also has sensitivity settings that are too high for some players who prefer slower movement.
Use raw mouse input fix[10]
|
Install Metro Mouse Fix.
- Solution taken from Redux installments. It works also for non-Redux Metro 2033 version.
- The fix doesn't seem to work with the Steam version, further investigation is required.
