Guild Wars gets Updates again
The game also came off pure maintenance mode recently and has been receiving small updates lately as a few devs have made volunteering on the game into an after-hours hobby. The devs efforts have mainly focused on “low hanging fruit” that allows the game to look and work better on modern hardware as well as removing a few of the more annoying bugs.
Added an option in the UI to remove the flat “billboards” used in distance that used to help vintage graphics cards run smoother.
An graphics option called “Advanced” now doubles the render distance and make ground vegetation go out even farther.
Windowed Full Screen support.
Full Screen works on any monitor.
Allowed more mini pets to render in Outposts
New options chat options to reduce spam.
The original Guild Wars remains on sale till June 5th.
