[BUG] Particle effects and quest tracker destinations not showing.

None of my particle effects are working, first of all. Fire staff heavy attacks for example, just show a stationary glowing light source suspended in mid air but no fireball. Ash Cloud just shows a dark patch on the ground, etc.
  • I have exited the game and deleted my \Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\live\ShaderCache.cooked and re-logged to recreate it.
  • I have also tried disabling all addons.
  • I even ran a repair from the launcher as well and it detected no problems.

None of these correct the issue.

I am also not seeing any of my quest destinations show on the map. Not only that, but they don't even show on the map filter section for the zone, even when I can go into the main quest log and select them there.

What can I do to get the game working again?

64-bit client, PC NA.

    Also, my character is randomly going low-polygon low-texture despite all graphics being maxed.

    I had this issue as well. Solution for me is as follows. Change the following two lines in the usersettings.txt file to match what is shown below. Mine were set to 0

    SET RequestedNumJobThreads "-1"
    SET RequestedNumWorkerThreads "-1"

    Can confirm, this fixed both problems (missing particles AND missing quest destinations).
