However, Monster Hunter Wilds is not one of those games. Alongside a worse version of DLSS that fans can thankfully upgrade themselves, Capcoms latest fantasy hunting game has a large number of post-processing effects that make the game look pretty damn muddy.Thankfully, players on PC can disable a number of these effects themselves to make the game look ten times better. However, youll need to delve into the modding community to do it. (You should also grab the mod that gives you unlimited character edits for free.)Make Monster Hunter Wilds look ten times betterWhile there are mods that turn off a number of effects, theres really only one effect that drastically reduces the image quality of Monster Hunter Wilds: lens distortion. While this effect can be set to off in the games config file, doing this doesnt actually work.Thankfully, modder SnakeyHips has released a mod that actually disables lens distortion in the new game to give players a much clearer image. The mod also disables the games built-in film grain effect.Although there are options to disable this within the games config.ini, changing that doesnt seem to do anything so thats why I looked into changing it via a script, the modder revealed on Nexus Mods.Lens distortion is a great effect for making more cinematic-style games. For something like The Last of Us or Until Dawn, its amazing. You get chromatic aberration and softer edges with great depth of field that you would see in a cinematic film captured through a real lens. However, for a game like Monster Hunter Wilds, it just results in a softer image.As the game gets even more mods, it seems obvious that even more graphical mods will come with higher quality textures and the like. However, with the games performance already in the toilet, maybe thats not wise.Monster Hunter WildsPlatform(s):PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series S/X, Xbox Series XGenre(s):Action RPGSubscribe to our newsletters!By subscribing, you agree to our Privacy Policy and may receive occasional deal communications; you can unsubscribe anytime.Share
