HD texture pack?

Hello, ive recently joined the server after being reminded about the server from a youtube video. The youtuber looked like he had a HD texture pack on as at the character creation screen all of the characters looked good and not like potatoes as they do on mine. (reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJZoIoTVn5U @ 0.01)

I have browsed through https://tools.idrinth.de/addons/ but I cant see anything relevant.

If anyone could help that would be much appreciated. I have all my settings to max already except post processing.

There is an grafic update with some really good settings. See here:
viewtopic.php?f=20&t=13&hilit=sildurs+enhanced

Although even on high end PCs this leads to an fps drop if the fight starts in earnest around keeps. But on highest settings the game looks great.

HD Textures:
The devs made some tests on some skins but HD textures lead to a tripple size of the art files which lead to drastic fps drop while playing.
So this path wasn't followed anymore a year ago.

Best is to force Anisotropic Filtering (from your GPU settings) to max to make the textures more sharp and also Anti Aliasing like MSAA, not the blurry FXAA.
Game doesnt use much GPU anyway, so you can crank those settings. CPU is the main limiting factor when it comes to big fights

Yes reshade is a good way to improve textures on the cost of some fps.

Thank you everyone that replied. I think ill try a combination of the reshade and GPU settings!

Here's the settings I've applied in the nVidia control panel for war-64.exe: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gdW4lm ... T3HLE/view

It makes it look way nicer with no real fps drop if you have a modern nVidia card.

I use reshade directly to make the graphics looks better and my fps are fine, you should try it

Zarbix is using antialising in the game.

the game gains a lot visually, although it is true that it needs a texture improvement.

Would be cool to have that as an optional thing for us who don't mind the download size!

That definitely does look better.
