Avoid this issue have been infinite reports from videos on Youtube to complains in the PUBG forums. Several users have faced this buildings not loading issues, and there have been created several solutions and hacks.

On this post, I will leave some of those solutions that will help you to play this game smoothly and with the proper buildings textures and not like you were playing some PS1 game:

Method #1: Quick Fix

On the support, forums have been distributed some quick workaround that seemingly fixes this issue and works like a charm.

It is a quick fix because you only need to follow a simple process:

Now, when you are parachuting, press the Tab key to open the inventory
After this, the game will start loading the textures correctly, and it maybe gets stuck for some time, don’t worry it is temporary

If this quick fix doesn’t help you to fix the buildings, not loading issues, you can try with the next ones.

Method #2: Disable NVIDIA ShadowPlay

If you have an NVIDIA GPU, you may have installed Geforce Experience to update your graphics cards periodically, and also you may use other features like game optimizations, etc.

The thing is that some users reported that this issue about the buildings not rendering correctly on PUBG could be happening because you have enabled ShadowPlay.

ShadowPlay is an NVIDIA feature that lets you record and also streaming your gameplays easily and without fps loose. If you are faced this issue, you can try to disable NVIDIA ShadowPlay following these simple steps:

Launch Geforce Experience
Click on the Settings button like in the image below
Finally, turn off the switch SHARE at the bottom of the settings window
Close Geforce Experience and run PUBG; hopefully, all the textures will be loaded correctly this time

Method #3: Update Graphics Cards

PUBG requires a graphics card to render all the textures and models in the game. You can have installed the drivers that come in a CD with your GPU, and it should work without problems, but actually, when you faced these issues, it is time to update this hardware.

When you update your graphics cards, you will improve the performance and compatibility of your games. You update your GPU downloading the latest version from the manufacturer website or use a driver updater like I used to.

Download Driver Booster
Save the installer on your computer and double-click on it
When the program is installed, you only need to click on the SCAN button
Driver Booster will scan your devices and find your graphics card. Then it will search on your manufacturer website like NVIDIA, AMD or Intel for the latest available driver
When finished, it will show you the update and the release date, to install it, click on the button Update Now
Restart your computer to apply the update
Finally, launch PUBG and verify if this time your buildings textures are loading correctly

Method #4: Increase View Distance

This is a little hack that could help you to fix your buildings textures, not rendering correctly. On your GameUserSettings.ini file, you can change the value of the view distance to let the game load your textures from far away.

To do that you will need to open the game files following these steps:

Press the keys Win + R, in the window type the command %localappdata% and press Enter
You will open the File Explorer, there go navigate to the following path:
```
TslGame\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor
```
In there, right-click on the file GameUserSettings.ini and select Edit
On the Notepad, search for this line ViewDistanceQuality
There you will see the value 1. To increase the view distance change the value to 2 like this: ViewDistanceQuality=2
Save the changes pressing the keys Ctrl + S and close the Notepad
Now, when you launch PUBG, all the textures and models will be loaded correctly because it will start before

Method #5: Move PUBG to an SSD drive

This can be a hard method to do if you don’t have an SSD installed on your computer, but in recent times there are multiple offers on these drives.

Recall that these times, games need some new hardware to be able to run correctly, having an SSD on your computer will improve your gaming experience. Here you have a list of some budget SSD that you can buy.

If you have installed an SSD right now on your PC, follow these steps to move the game:

Launch the Steam client

There, on the left side menu, click on Downloads
Now, on the right, click on the button STEAM LIBRARY FOLDERS
There click on the button ADD LIBRARY FOLDER
In there, navigate to your SSD drive and create a new folder, may something like Games and click on SELECT
Click on CLOSE to save the changes and also close the Settings window
Now, navigate to your games Library
Rightclick on PUBG and in the menu select Properties
There, navigate to the LOCAL FILES tab and click on the button MOVE INSTALL FOLDER
On the window that shows up, you need to choose the new folder created on your SSD drive. Click on Close and wait until Steam moves all your game data
Hopefully, this time when you launch PUBG, your buildings textures and models will be loaded correctly and even faster

Method #6: Reinstall PUBG

Well, here comes the time when we start talking about reinstalling the game. If you haven’t been able to fix this issue with any of the methods above, maybe there is some bad problem in your games files that you can only repair by performing a reinstallation of PUBG.
