GENERAL FIXES

Generally speaking, some basic troubleshooting tips should always help you resolve whatever issue you are facing with the PC version of any game. If you are running into problems, maybe first attempt the following steps, and if they don’t work out, look into some of the more specific fixes we have below.

  • Make sure the drivers on your PC are updated.
  • If you have two GPUs, make sure you are using the discrete GPU instead of the integrated one.
  • Set Dynasty Warrior 9’s priority to High in the Task Manager Turn off any background programs, including firewalls, chat clients, video recorders, and overlays.
  • Try lowering visual settings on the game to see if that improves game performance.
  • Make sure you have Windows updated before you attempt to play Dynasty Warriors 9.

LOW FPS

Many players on PC have reported experiencing low frame-rates in this game. This can definitely ruin the experience and there are a number of methods you can try out that may help improve the game’s experience. First of all, make sure that your GPU driver is updated to the latest version. Once you make sure of this, turn off v-sync in the game’s settings and you may see a boost in FPS in the game.

BLACK SCREEN ERROR

This error may occur for some people if the game’s resolution is set higher than the monitor’s native resolution. To fix this issue, just press Alt + Enter to bring the game to windowed mode. Now, just change the resolution to one that can be supported by your PC. This should resolve this issue for you.

HOW TO GET CHINESE LANGUAGE 

If you’re one of the players who’s been looking for a way to experience  the game in the Chinese language, then this method will help you. First, type in “regedit” in your search bar and then open the Registry Editor when you see it pop up. Once open, navigate to “HKEY-USERS/S-1-5-21-….”. After this, you need to find “SOFTWARE/KoeiTecmo/Dynasty Warriors9/Graphic Setting”. You’re almost done. All you need to do now is to find “language voice” and open it and then change its value to 2.

GREEN SCREEN ERROR

If you’re experiencing a problem with the screen flickers or starts turning green, then this solution might work for you. First, open up the Nvidia control panel, navigate to “change resolution” under “Display”. Now, just click “Use Nvidia Color Setting” and select “Highest (32-Bit)”. This should fix the problem for you.

 

XBOX ONE AND PS4 CONTROLLERS NOT WORKING 

If your Xbox One or PS4, controller haven’t been working, then this method should help resolve the problem. This solution was shared by a Steam user, and you just need  to follow the instructions to get these controllers to work.

First, make sure that both Big Picture mode and Steam in-game overlay are enabled. Next, open the installation directory of Dynasty Warriors 9 and navigate to the game executable. Right-click the program and uncheck “Run this program as an administrator” and “Disable Full Screen Optimization.”

Next, navigate to settings in Steam, then to Controller and thereafter to Controller Settings and then Toggle PS4/Xbox configuration support. After you’ve done this, right-click on Dynasty Warriors 9 in your Steam library and click Edit Steam controller configuration and then Export Config —> “Personal” —>Local Only—>”name it”—>Save—>Exit.  Now, navigate to  Steam\userdata\userid\241100\remote or Steam\userdata\userid\241100\remote\controller_config\dynasty warriors 9 and delete all the files you find there. Next, download this config file through the Steam link above and paste in both the folders.

For the final step, open your steam library again and right-click Dynasty Warriors 9—>  Edit Controller Configuration—> Browse Config—> Select the Dynasty Warriors 9 Configuration—> Apply Config—> Exit out. This should resolve the issue for you.
