i woud want a option in the graphics setting where i can enable the old texture. like i can enable just one if i want or all if i want. it would be good for low end pcs and other stuff like if some people miss the old dirt they can just enable the old dirt. that would make it even more worth to buy imma get this game really soon

greate idea i actully suggested that once on twitter before i knew about this forum
I’m not sure if that would be any better performance wise. I mean they are optimizing the heck out of it with every update. Maybe the old textures could have an even worse performance.

idk but i like the idea i saw some videos of old oort and the dirt ahhh the dirt and like i miss the leaves dont you miss kinda the old days lol
The leaves looked much better without the heavy load of foliage and the new texture on it. True Story that … but that’s only my opinion.
agree well it is just wait and see what the devs says
@Heurazio @sikerow You mean the totally unrealistic, plastic looking leaves that looked like a cube with 6 stickers on them?^^ Or did I go to much back in time?^^
I’m not sure what extent the game will allow for moding, but I imagine that textures would not be that much of a big deal. As for official in game options, I say nay- onward and upward!

The largest problem with being able to change textures is by my opinion that it can damage immersion quite a lot, have you ever tried walking around in a large minecraft server? The building are often obviously build with a texture pack because they uses quite horrible combinations of blocks.
Allowing people to change textures will make so that even some of the best build houses will look out of place for the people traveling through.

IKR ever been on a normal server and someone has this futuristic hovership, (in their textures) but to everyone else it is a floating blob of cobblestone etc especially on a medieval themed RP server

well thats thwir fault they can allow eny texture they want if i want i can only turn on old dirt and dont turn on eny thing then the cool buildings wont be ugly
guyssssss i dont mean custom textures i just mean like the old ones lets say i like the old leaves i enable the old leaves never ever would i wanna see custom textures or if so it need t be a custom voxel creator they make a block and send it in to devolepers and they maybe accept but that is other things
Well if they built their cool building with a very popular costum texture pack then it most likely will look ugly for you. And that’s the problem.
@nike01 I know but there is no technical difference I can think of between “let’s give them the possibility to have the old textures” (and there will only be more old textures from her on out) and "let’s give them the possibility to have their own textures.
And what´s about the new blocks that are going to come?
The devs would either have to model the textures in high/normal and low resolution or you would have to run around seeing a mix of old/low and new/high res. textures.
I think if your PC can handle other games it is also able to run B< on the lowest settings.
Yes, this one. i liked the style of them because, for me, they fit much more in a sandbox game.
@Havok40k: i hope not. as @KuroKuma said i think this is not a good experience for other players because the can’t see what you see. B< is MMO so every mod should only effect the GUI or gameplay and not the look and feel of the worlds (everything that can be seen by others).
I didn’t like them^^ They looked to much like placeholders and didn’t fit the graphical standard Boundless set with everything else.
i think if they add a new block it dont have a old texture
No, completely new blocks won’t but after every texture update there will be even more old textures.
Although, I’m not sure if there will be many if any texture updates at all.
lets hope for no more textuee updates and just a update where you can choose eny old texture you want or all
Let’s hope for texture updates if needed and that you don’t have to choose between different textures.
