After reading the post regarding the setting of basic lighting working incorrectly, I've decided on posting about using a workaround to avoid the missing material textures on objects. Please note I am using a low end system however I have got the game play relatively playable with the Basic Lighting setting.
To achieve this I perform the following steps:
- Start the game and at the log in screen, select option and check that Video - Quality is on any default quality setting (medium, high etc)
- Apply the changes if necessary. then quit game and restart (do not log in or changes wont apply)
- Once the game has started again, perform the log in and then once the game is loaded, then change the lighting setting from Advanced to Basic
- If the game crashes for whatever reason, the above steps need to be repeated again in exact order as they will now be on Custom setting
- If your able to change settings back to a default config before exiting the game, then AW can be immediately entered and changing Lighting to Basic can be done.
Please note I'm using a low end system, not the system on my signature
