	hi there, how do i know if i have high resolution graphics installed on ddo? i dont have directx 11 available on options only dx9 but i have ultra high graphics option available also some times the client resets the settings by it self on windows 10 and asks me if i want to install the high resolution like when you open it for first time,i choose yes but nothink installed compare it the folder size on my computer with a friend folder size mine is 9,85 gb and friends one 10,8 gb� also every time that the client resets the settings, on control panel the ddo has installation date the day that the setings was reset never had a problem in windows 8 , 7 , vista or xp playing ddo from 2006 with dx 11 or high graphics and i think the dx 11 problem or the folder size means high res is not installed on my pc before starting critism for my english yes i know is very bad but not my language

	your english was good enough http://ddowiki.com/page/System_requirements Renderer: DirectX� 10 or DirectX� 11 high res claims to require 10 or 11, since you claim to be in 9, i reach the conclusion that you are NOT running high res

	i suspect the same that for some reason ddo not runing with high res and they dont want to download it but i dont know why as i know the high res needs extra 3gb space my folder on windows 10 of ddo has 9,85 gb and a friends folder who runs with dx 11 so has high res is 10,8 gb, so we have different size but is not the 3gb it is possible to check your folder size? if someone else has high res and we have the same folder size then high res is installed on my ddo and just for some reason the dx 11 not working if the size is different then i must find out why the hell i cant install the high res

The game sucks so much by now that reducing visual experience wont really ruin it much.

On top of that since you are on W10 you need the DirectX runtime installing since it includes older files which are needed to run DX11. My own install for DDO is 10.2GB in size and I run the high res version. W10 is rather twitchy on anything that is in the Program Files directories so try having DDO installed in some other place and try running the shortcut to TurbineLauncher.exe as Admin (right click and select Run as Admin).

Quote: client_anim.dat : should contain the animation information. client_cell_1 & 2.dat : tied to the maps, maybe locations, 1 for Eberron, 2 for Faerun client_gamelogic.dat : well game logic, the scripts that runs the game client_general.dat : general game information client_highres.dat : High Resolution Textures client local_xx.dat : DE Kraut local stuff, FR Frog Local stuff. client_local_English.dat : English local stuff. Local stuff meaning descriptions, fluff texts. client_map_1 & 2.dat : maps 1 for Eberron, 2 for Faerun client_mesh.dat : the mesh ( I know it has some meaning in 3D rendering. ) client_sound.dat : Sound files, music, kobold still hates you, and so on. client_surface : the surface, low res textures. Updated from : http://www.ddovault.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1367966990 Mine stands around 12Gb.

It's just tied to the files... if the files are there, and you have access to the high/ultra high settings. If not they are not available.

Type dxdiag, and then click OK. On the System tab, note the version of DirectX that is displayed on the DirectX Version line. the flav suggestion of checking for the high_res.dat file sounds smart. i would also still try to verify that your direct X version was at least on 10 just to eliminate variables.

	DDO installer seems to cause some issue with dx10/11. Everytime I reinstall ddo, I have to run dxwebsetup to have dx11 as an option. I think this is the version I use. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35 Literally, fresh installs of windows 7 and 10. After installing ddo, first launch only gives me dx 9. Run dxwebsetup and it updates to dx 11.

My brother-in-law thought he would be helpful and upgrade the OS on my old-ass PC to W10 - what a shit show that was. Barely functional. Couldn't get him to change it back fast enough.

	I think there is no low-res version available anymore, so it'd have to be an old install. ("It" being the theoretical low-res install.) (Also a fine Stephen King novel of some acclaim.) (And a mini-series.) (And an upcoming movie.) (Drink Coke.)

Since Low Res was for the low end computers 10 years ago ( played with the low res on a Vaio T2XP [ Laptop with a Celeron 1.2 GHz and 512Mb of RAM ] optimized for being small and light, definitely not a gaming rig ] ). I always played in High Res, even on my old rig ( Pentium D 940 + 8800GTS ), and most of the time in dual screen.

	High resolution textures doesn't matter if you run on Full HD or 4K display resolution, You can see difference only on lower display resolutions. UI scaling coming to DDO sooner or later.
