    One was actually the download beta due to the size of the files, and one was the CD given to people who pre-ordered. Had nothing to do with the level of computing going on.

    There is no such thing as a high res client and a low res client. The beta client had lower resolution textures to keep the download manageable. All retail clients have the "high res" textures. It's mostly a term used by Lotro fanboys, as a counter argument if you do not think the graphics are the best thing since sliced bread .



    It's the retail client. Nothing else.

    There are two types of graphics, the above posts are wrong.  Hi-Res textures are installed by default i believe.  You will find the option when you install the client under advanced.  I don't have low-res client screen shots handy to show you as i run the hi-res. If you need to install the game without the Hi-res textures  you would uncheck the box marked hi-res under the advanced options durring install.

    They are sort of correct.

    If you downloaded the client then you only have the normal textures, if you have a pre-order dvd or the retail game then you should have 'ultra-high' textures as an option in advanced graphics.



    I might post some pics after work if I get a chance.

    Here is a quick comparison between High Res (the highest in the download client) and Very High Res (which shipped with the game):

    Two that show the very high rez textures effect more than just the characters and the ground:
