A world of detail

Updated textures for towns, ground, grass, stone, vegetation, selected equipment and creatures. New path and cliff materials join the update. Selected assets have been refreshed while keeping the world familiar.

DirectX 11 offers improved water, material relief, soft sunlight shadows, shading in crevices and softer particle edges near surfaces. These effects have separate settings.

How to enable the new visuals

  1. Close the game completely and let the launcher finish updating.
  2. In graphics settings, select DirectX 11 and the HD texture style. Enable extra effects to suit your computer; material relief requires enhanced lighting.
  3. Exit the client completely and launch it again: changing DirectX or texture style requires a restart.

Classic textures and low-PC mode remain available. If performance drops, reduce optional effects or return to Classic textures. Support depends on your graphics card.
