Max Texture Atlas Size 1024x8192

October 24, 2012 11:52 PM from

In the options there is a 1024x8192 Max Texture Atlas Size option but after selecting it and restarting the game it always returns to the 1024X4096 option.

I have a pretty beefy system so I'm not sure why I can't set it at the highest.

Maxing a feature for the sake of maxing a feature is silly. I believe I heard the max texture atlas is only used for UI elements for FE. Also if your video card does not support the chosen size it will automatically revert back.

I see - well I never claimed I was not silly.

I also wondered about this... I believe it mentions that higher numbers lead to better performance. I have two HD7970s, so my system is a powerhouse, and I can't get it to reach the higher number either.

how much VRAM do you have? it's probably based on that, I've got 2 gb and 8192 works fine.

I'm having the same problem as the OP. I have 4gigs on my videocard (680FTW) and I have 16 gigs DDR3 on my system. Any fix yet?
