Steps to Reproduce: Installed the game, this was the first launch. Graphics settings were automatically set to: Ultra. Then I changed it to: High. Then I used custom settings to disable Lumen. Before that, I tried adjusting post-processing, brightness and night vision—I turned those to minimum, but nothing changed. I searched for similar issues here on the forum, found some, updated my graphics driver, updated Windows, cleared the game cache, but nothing changes. Please help me with this issue, as I’d like to play soon.
Details: 07.01.2026. Shadows are rendering red, character skin and everything that light falls on has a yellow-green tint. The interface looks normal, the problem is only with the graphics in cities.
Hey there, welcome to the inZOI forum!
This issue might be closely related to the GPU drivers. We’ve seen a few of those before here. It’d be best to perform the following actions:
- Check out this official guide and perform all steps mentioned there: Resolving Crash Issues After the Latest Update
- If the issue still occurs, try a complete, clean install of your GPU drivers. You can google how to do it, there should be plenty of guides
Afterwards, please report back and let us know how it went 
Hello, I also found a problem that might be causing this situation. For some reason, every time I launched the game, it would perform game file optimization, even though it says it should only happen after a game update or on first launch, and there are shaders there too, could that be causing something to go wrong? After opening this game many times over almost a day, but each time there was this loading screen:
This loading always completed and was never interrupted.
So the shaders are compiled every time you launch the game? That’s definitely not normal. Usually this happens the first time after new drivers are installed on your device, but not every time. A strong indicator that something is wrong with your drivers, I assume.
Does that mean I need to completely reinstall the graphics card drivers? Not just reinstall the latest version?
Update the version drive. And show all your graphics settings.
Try a reinstall of the latest version first 
I did this because the instructions said I needed to reinstall the latest version of the driver. I did everything that was indicated in the instructions I could find, scrolled through the forum, and searched for the same problem as mine. This didn’t help, and a lot of other things didn’t help either. This problem only occurs in inZoi, everything is fine in other games, there are no issues, so I don’t think the problem is with my hardware.
What if I have very grainy graphics and I can’t adjust that, I’m having a very strange issue because it’s cutting me off a lot because of this
