[PC] Leader Textures Appearing Incorrectly

You look to your Leaders to be a shining example of power and style. So what about when their textures are grainy and over-saturated, plus their hair is just wrong? Sounds like your animated Leader’s texture may having some issues!

The most common cause of this is having shadows disabled due to hardware limits. If you can run the game with shadows enabled, that should resolve those texture issues. Not everyone has the hardware to run with shadows on. In that case, you’re going to want to disable animated Leaders completely, removing the need for shadows.

To re-enable shadows, you can use the following steps:

1. Under Game Options, select Graphics and Show Advanced Options.
2. Scroll down to the section labeled Shadows.
3. Select the top option titled Shadows, you should see a checkmark in the box when it's enabled.

Alternatively, if you just want to stop the Leader animations, this is how you do it:

1. Under Game Options, select Graphics and Show Advanced Options.
2. Scroll down to the very bottom section labeled Animated Leaders.
3. Set the Quality to Static (No Audio)
