Elsweyr furnishings - what's up with the terrible low-res blurry stuff?

    Tapestry and Rugs are also blurred and look not at all as the same we can see in the new area. They are just a pale copy

    These too are absolutely awful for example, the Sarcophagus Lid and Bookshelf Ancient Stone, the orange Runner, Autumn Vines is another one that comes to mind.

    @ZOS_SarahHecker please they should give a look at them all, not only the few ones displayed here. I guess they'll do that, just saying in case.

    the floor too isn't good, in smaller places is very noticeable is pretty bad

    and there are other, they should really look at them all.

    Hey everyone,

    Just wanted to confirm that this isn't intended and that these textures will be updated in a future update. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

    @ZOS_SarahHecker the texture of the Elsweyr Fabric, Display item has been reduced again in a recent patch:

    God, that is awful.

    Also, 9 months later and the bookcases still look like this:

    They rarely address it correctly nor properly unless it is the bl;blanket ' We will address it down the line in a future patch'. There really is no reason for such poor textures aside from it being rushed.

    The problem stems from the same texture being used for multiple surfaces regardless of size or scale, which leads to many objects looking fairly potato. While not a perfect solution, they could make a drastic improvement in this regard by resampling the textures for a higher resolution. While obviously not as good as having native higher resolution textures, it would be miles better than the half-assed crap we have now.

    Please, ZOS, do something to improve the appearance of the textures because if the players do not take pleasure in housing, they will no longer buy houses, furniture or anything!

    Ever see the breton banner, khajiit tables and the redguard cabinet with the glass doors. Those are horrible.

    Just wanted to compare and contrast a group of items from a friend's house.

    As you can clearly (or unclearly!) see, the Redguard textures are far higher res than the Elsweyr ones:

    Which is a shame, as a lot of the Elsweyr items have really pretty designs (like the swans, here) and it would be such a shame if they, largely, just disappeared from the game and got replaced by future (more boring) stuff, based on texture quality alone.

    I can only assume the original samples were taken in too low res, for some reason?

    Surely, textures should be getting better, if anything, as time goes on?

    Not worse.

    @ZOS_SarahHecker @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_CullenLee could we please have this on your radar? Something is horribly wrong with some Elsweyr furnishing textures.

    What I find very suspicious is, that ESO never uses more than 2GB GPU memory. How could that be with all that textures??
    I hope this not a limitation from 32-bit client days.

    Am I the only one?

    this is basically the stuff they hope no one notices because they have no intention of doing anything about it. It's not even just elsweyr stuff that renders like this.
