Character Resolution
Building off of the Min Spec changes in Update 41, we have made additional adjustments to how the game handles the resolution of other characters (both NPC and other remote players) that appear near you.

As has always been the case, characters that are closest to you will appear at the highest resolution we offer and as characters move further away, their resolution will decrease. That said, we have increased the distance before the resolution drops so you will now be able to see high resolution characters from farther away.
Additionally, the max number of characters that we show at this highest resolution was previously capped at a low number. We have added a new graphics setting on PC, "Character Resolution", which allows you to control the presets for the number of higher resolution characters.
By default, Character Resolution is set to "Low", so you will not see immediate changes to nearby characters. Increasing the preset to Medium/High/Ultra increases the number of higher resolution characters you can see and the distance at which you can see them.
The Graphics Presets adjust the new Character Resolution setting in the following ways:
Minimum Graphics: Low Character Resolution
Low Graphics: Low Character Resolution
Medium Graphics: Medium Character Resolution
High Graphics: High Character Resolution
Ultra Graphics: Ultra Character Resolution
Maximum Graphics: Ultra Character Resolution
