Low res textures come from lacking VRam on your GPU. There can be many reasons for it but it is generally recommended to have at least 8Gb. There is also still an unresolved bug with texture mipping that doesnt step through and only ever uses max res or min and nothing inbeetween. You can set textures to High or Medium to see if that circumvents the problem.

Thanks, will look into it.

Jekyll hair and mustache is nice, please port those to the other guys too. Also like all of the hairstyles and beards available to Ziad, can you give those to more people?

Does anyone else have problems with resolution ? When i do something like change a character's outfit or load a scene the textures reset and get all low and undetailed.
