Blue-ish shadows

[Lazy Liquid]

I don't know what is causing it, nor if more people is having this issue.

These blue shadows happens in the menus and every track too. Not only by the car, but every soft shadow too.

I don't have this issue but I am pretty sure they are meant to be there just not blue. I have the shadow under my car but it looks like a normal shadow. Does this happen all the time or only some times?

All the time. I tried to change everything on graphics and it stills.

That is strange. Well I guess post your gpu/pc specs and maybe someone who is tech savvy will know something. That is the extent of the advice I can offer on this.

Sir,I know this sounds generic but have you updated your graffics drivers already? Also,is important to check the game's ReadMe/User Manual (if there is one) and see if something required is missing on your PC,like DirectX,Net framework and Visual C++.

Now im going to check the files integrity and if eventualy my graphics board driver is outdated. Be right back soon.

EDIT:
Files verified (no issues, Build 4273270) and Graphics updated.

EDIT 2:
After changing everything on game options / graphics, i "kinda" solved the problem when i downgraded the Direct X 9 to 8.
Shadows became normal, but the game looks worse, of course.

Update DirectX drivers
Update Net Framework (lastest is 4.8 if I recall)

Install all following Visual C++:
2005
2008
2013
2015-2019

See if that works. I recall my rFactor having the same bug,blue shadows when running in DX9. At night track it looked like a neon glow.

I'll do that when I get closer to my notebook.

But that's really strange, because when I installed the game, it also installed a bunch of mainframe applications with it.

Have you tried switching between intel graphics and nvidia card? Does it happen in both?

Updating DX9 should be enough. In my Windows I have installed only VC++ 2015 and the shadows are ok.
He should also check video settings in game options whether the game is using DX8. By default, when first installed, it's set to DX8 and must be manually set to DX9.

Updating DX9 should be enough. In my Windows I have installed only VC++ 2015 and the shadows are ok.

It may depend on the system he's running. All cracked Windows are different,some has specific dlls and files,others not. Also,his Windows may have updates missing,that's when installing those Visuals C++ may solve generic issues. I only give advices which I've self experienced before.

someone reported already this kind of issue. The problem is Intel CPU. You should use dGPU, not iGPU from Intel.
