building quality?

[Henry8362]

why does turning down building quality do nothing? high or very low they look the same :/ it's a shame as for some reason my computer hates siege battles for some reason

It does do something. What you're trying to do is improve the texture.
Building quality (or unit quality) affects the range of which a building (or unit) is still in "high quality mode".
On highest, you can move your camera 100 meters away and still see it in "high quality mode".
On lowest quality, the building (or unit) already switches to a worse texture (or 2d texture for units) when you are 10 meters away.

I hope that clears some up for you!

ahhh right it does actully although on a big city it's kind of useless because if your 100 metres away it has to render the whole city rather than one building perhaps :L hmmmmm i dunno
