Velious armor textures are not enabled by default as they can cause an issue with Vah Shir armor not displaying.

==== EQClassicHD - higher resolution texture pack ==== | |||
A port of the EQClassicHD is available for TAKP [https://drive.google.com/open?id=0ByJldqMGux7CVUh6a2taTWlndmM HERE]. | |||
Prior to installation, verify you're using the latest version of the client linked above. | |||
There are two installation methods. Windows users can utilize the install.bat file and point to their TAKP directory. | |||
Alternatively, the .s3d files can be copied into a TAKP directory, overwriting the old files (make a back up of your old files!) | |||
If you notice coloring issues or other oddities, it is advised to DISABLE texture caching within the eqclient.ini file: TextureCache=FALSE. Once the issue is resolved and the texture mod is working properly, you can reenable texture caching. | |||
