Texture resolution.....

lol nooooooooo...

graphics have absolutely nothing to do with latency. they have absolutely no affect on "lag" or ping times. all of the art assets are on your machine, and are displayed by your machine. the only data that is being transferred to the servers is your location and any calculations for combat/UI/inventory.

Go into your ini file in your game folder (or just search ini and it should show), double click that and then add this into it:

[Renderer]
Height = 1200
Width = 1920
WindowX = 0
WindowY = 0
DynamicLightsLimit = 4
MeshLODQuality = 1
TextureAnisotropy = 16
FarClipScale = 3.9371195
PlantDensity = 200
D3DFullScreen = true
NativeHeight = 1200
NativeWidth = 1920
doShadows = true
doBlobShadows = true
UseMinSpecShaders = false
EnableBloom = true
VerticalSyncState = true
FullScreen = true
TextureQuality = 0
AllowDepthOfField = true
GammaRamp = 1.037854
SpeedTreeDistanceScale = 1.25
AntiAliasingLevel = 8
enableadvenvirolighting = true
DebugAdvEnviroLighting = true
[Game]

Only if you have a good rig, not for low or medium.

Then after you have, save it and then change the file setting to read only so it doesn't get wiped out when loading the game.

A lot of these options are not available ingame.

Hi all

If you don’t care about graphics quality, but just love the game as is...don’t read this thread....just GAME ON !!

First of all...I got in last night, plus I was in the beta....I played and played and played.....great game....but I am one of the people that really has a problem with bad graphics...for me it can be game breaking.

And to make things clear....I like the art stile and the models, so it's not a question about that.

I forgot to take some screenshots of what I’m talking about, but it's old news to many of you.

Some of the textures are ok I guess, but when you get close to a rock or a ship or a building, textures look really fuzzy and washed out...and no..iI'm not looking at it with a magnifier..it's easy to see the low quality.

This is something you would expect from a game from 2000-2004 (Texture wise).

I just don’t get it. Yes they want everyone to be able to play the game, but what about the rest of us.

It's like saying... "Not all can buy a great looking sports car, so now people can only buy small cheep a** cars".....that’s fine...but what if someone wanted to buy that sports car..should he not have the option ?

If SWTOR had a ULTRA option in graphics settings....then we could use that, and people with problems could turn it down. At middle settings the game would look like it does now ??

I love the game, but graphics are just ..... OLD.

Hope this will change in a Patch...even AA and AF would be a big help (Yes you can turn it on in the .ini file...but still)

Sorry for the rant...just think it's crazy thinking from a company like BioWare

Am i really the only one... (Expecting a lot of short posts saying..."YES")

Any way....see you in game

didnt they say texture issue will solved on release date.....just wait a few more days..

James Ohlen said Anti Aliasing would be in by launch, or shortly after. I don't remember anything being said about textures, though if somebody has a link?

This is good info except for 1 thing. Most monitors these days max out at 1080p res, because they are cheaper to make that way. Using the setting listed above may work for people, but your monitor wouldn't be running native res.

I suggest people do this, but switch the res to 1080, not 1200x1920 and you should have good results.

Funny because monitor resoultions have actually come downward with the uprising of HDTVs. I run on a 27'' 1080p tv w/ GTX570 and it looks pretty darn good for an mmo.
