Question Better Character Textures

I'm sure this has been done to death but I couldn't find a thread on it...

In towns and outposts, the textures on my own character are always sharper than those on other players' characters. Is there any way I can use the 'higher quality' textures that must be on my system somewhere for all the other PCs in the town/outpost?

I appreciate this was probably done as a performance issue, but I'd be willing to take a chance that my pc setup could muscle it's way through it

Cheers,

You can not. Guild Wars is not that much customizable as traditional 3D shooters like Unreal and Quake are. Your only options are those in the options menues, and it's not possible to install new textures or other add-ons. (And even if it would be possible, it would be disallowed by ArenaNet.)

I suggested a while back in the sardalec sanitarium to add a new texture option of utra high to enable what the OP suggests - drawing the textures on other characters at full detail like your own.

If you have a slow PC, you can still use medium or low.

It would be cool. That way we can look at each others armor in towns and outposts.
