Cant change Graphic settings fixed.

You need a .dll file which you have to put into the 'bin' folder of your game files.


Steam ---> steamapps ---> common ---> The Settlers - Heritage of Kings - History Edition ---> bin


You should be able to download the file from my MEGA Account here:
(since i cant post the full link, you have to insert this on the mega website into your link after /file/)

ZdslnbTL#J7BvhVEgU_UqdIwyDh37f-hMoV3vmvO1F8zYvCbKwj4

file name is d3d9.dll

I think I'm gonna make it simple in the future via a discord. But for that I must setup everything first.

Then you didn't do it correctly.

Thanks for this! One minute fix that works like a champ!

Here is a link to the file from a settlers wiki page, not form mega or discord.

Thank you ! Ive been searching a lot to find a solution. in the end it was surprisingly easy :)

this fix has worked for me, but I think that it has now caused my render distance to become limited such that zooming out reduced the landscape to darkness. Changing the graphics settings and restarting doesn't change it

hmmm im not sure i understand what you mean, although are you sure youre not referring to the weather condition? I know that something similiar happens when you zoom out during the rain, especially on custom maps where you sometimes can zoom out farther.

If anything though it should be fixed by a reinstall

[schmeling65]

that has nothing to do with reinstall or restart or anything. That is something related to the maps and something most of the mappers including bluebyte were not aware of.
the FarClipPlaneminmax-values are initialized at the start of every map and they are set by default.
For a higher camera distance you need a higher maxvalue, which is set by this command in the mapscript
Display.SetFarClipPlaneMinAndMax(_min, _max) with values like Display.SetFarClipPlaneMinAndMax(0, 28000). That should work for 99% of the maps
