Known issues and errors found in The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt Remastered
Let’s explore the current list of issues and errors plaguing The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt Remastered:

1) Performance issues, stuttering, and framerate drops
The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt Remastered update has introduced performance issues, including framerate drops and stutters. The lack of game-ready drivers from AMD and Intel is exacerbating these problems. While NVIDIA users have a Game Ready driver available, AMD and Intel GPU owners are advised to wait for optimized drivers for their specific cards. In the meantime, adjusting the Screen Space Reflections setting to Low can significantly improve performance and reduce stutters.
2) Character pop-in issues
Character pop-in issues, though rare, can disrupt the gameplay experience. To mitigate this issue, consider adjusting the Number of Background Characters setting to Medium or Low, especially if you have an older or budget CPU. For optimal performance, a higher-end CPU may be required to maintain the Ultra settings.
3) Graphical glitches like green wall, black floors, etc
Players using NVIDIA GPUs may encounter a green wall in certain areas of the game, while AMD GPU owners may experience black blocks in shadowy regions. These GPU-specific glitches are expected to be resolved in future driver or game patches, ensuring a smoother visual experience for all players.
4) Frequent freezes on Radeon GPUs
AMD Radeon GPU owners have reported frequent freezes and stutters in The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt Remastered. While a game-ready driver is in the works to address these issues, temporarily disabling HairWorks settings can help alleviate freezes and stutters until the official fix is released.
5) Script compilation error
If you encounter a script compilation error, it may be due to incompatible mods. Unsubscribing from these mods, particularly those from the Steam Workshop, can resolve this issue. Alternatively, there are other fixes available to tackle this error and ensure a seamless gameplay experience.
As more issues and solutions emerge, we will continue to update this list to provide you with the most comprehensive guide to navigating The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt Remastered. Dive into the world of Geralt of Rivia and embark on an epic adventure filled with challenges and triumphs.
