;Tile decorations
:Choose from extremely sparse, sparse, normal, dense, or extremely denseextreme. Have this set to extremely sparse for a performance boost. Using higher settings makes the game much prettier, but you also have a harder time finding anything on the ground, unless it is on/in dirt, road, water, rock or sand. Large performance drop if used. Using the extreme setting is not recommended, it will effect performance greatly.

:Choose from very short, short, normal, far, or extreme. The distance in which you can see structures. Set it to very short for a performance boost when you are in a (large) town. Set to extreme if you want to see towns from quite a distance away. ''The maximum setting of this option is the setting of tree render distance''
;Item and /creature render distance
:Choose from very short, short, normal, far, or extreme. Set this to very short for a performance boost. Setting this to extreme helps looking for items and creatures. ''The maximum setting of this option is the setting of structure render distance''
;Render cloud shadows ([[Wikipedia:pixel shader|pixel shader]] effect)
:Turn this off for a noticeable performance increase.
;Pretty trees (models near player)
:Always enable. It's actually a performance boost as well as looking better.

;Render distant terrain
:Set to OFF for performance. Very pretty, makes the game look great, but has a large effect on performance. Makes the game look...well, more lifelike, look at the sun and you will not see much :P ''The effects of this option depends greatly on your hardware (some users may experience a heavy performance drop, some close to none)''.
;Pretty weatherRender sun glare:Have OFF for If you have performance. Performance will drop a great deal when it starts to rain, but on will make weather (mostly fog) look nicer (but more annoying)problems while looking at trees, but weather is really nice anyway so it´s up to youturn this off. ;High resolution [[spyglass]]:Todo
