Monsters with eyes closed?

[Nebiros]

I don't know if it's just on my end, but some monsters i've fought, namely Bazelgeuse, Lavasioth, the Rath species, and maybe a few other Flying Wyverns, have their eyes closed the entire time while encountering them.
It's hardly noticeable but really weird.

Has anyone else seen this?

Couldn't get any decent snaps of others atm but here's a couple of Azure Rathalos:

Hiding your face with leaves was a good idea. My condoleances to see that it didn't work. Must really be ugly for monsters to avoid eye contact even when hidden.

xD

yeah not sure what could be causing a bug like this. i'd say mods but they'd have to affect the monster files. try verifying game files

note: i have NO IDEA how this would affect a modded installation. read up on that if applicable.

[eplipswich]

Yeah, I would say your best bet is to reinstall the game. That could help.

[Nebiros]

I don't use any mods, so it's definitely not related to that.

So far i think it only affects most flying wyverns, and piscine wyverns (although i haven't checked Jyuratodus yet).

It's nothing game breaking but it's a bit off puting when you're hunting something with it's eyes closed literally the entire fight.

That doesnt looks like eye closing more like texture missing, maybe because of low res.

Try Integrity file check before reinstall, you dont install any mod do you?

hey yeah your right, it does look more like the eye is missing... yeah if your not using mods verify integrity. reinstall shouldnt be needed. might poke some of the graphics settings if after verify it still happens. may even need to delete any texture caches and verify again and if none of that works, bug report to capcom.

they'll likely want a dxdiag.txt file, and a screenshot probably would help too. the 2nd azure rath ♥♥♥ is a good example of the issue its very clear the eye is open but its missing.

Alright, thanks for the replies.

On a side note i remember this wasn't occurring when i first started playing (when it was released for PC) and i only recall it started happening after a few patches (maybe around when Deviljho came out?)

yeah its always possible a patch might have borked some of the game files for some things. but if it is a coding error on capcoms part, we probably wont see a hotfix for it anytime soon. but i dont think its that since everyone would likely be encountering it.

Yeah seeing as when googling "MHW monsters eyes closed bug" or anything of the like just takes me to this very post, i doubt many other people if any are encountering this lol.

I'll try to see if verifying game integrity works.

hopefully it does. odagaron and rathalos are a littler harder to take seriously when they glare at you with a blank face.

Nah, he's attacking handicapped dragons. Now who's the monster?!

I think i managed to get it all fine again.

I verified the game integrity, that alone didn't work, so i fiddled with the graphics settings one by one on the ol Azure Rathalos test subject, and i think the sole issue was the 'Max LOD Level' setting being on -1 instead of No Limit.

Assuming that's the correct eye texture, cause at this point i don't even know what is anymore lol

[eplipswich]

Yeah, that's the correct eye texture. Glad you managed to get it solved.
