Rage of the Firelands PTR Development Notes

Today, we updated the Cataclysm Classic Firelands PTR.

This week’s build adds the new High Definition Textures option. This option will enhance the fidelity of the in-game world without changing the overall Classic visual aesthetic. To enable this option:

  • Log into Cataclysm Classic PTR using the Battle.net app.
  • Select the “Get HD Textures” button on the bottom left corner of the screen.
  • Select “Download” when prompted.
  • You’ll be sent back to the Battle.net app to download the texture update.
  • Please let us know what you think!

Known Issues
We’re currently tracking the following known issues:

  • User Interface
    • Creating a new gear set results in a LUA error.
    • Players are not able to set a character language via the language selector in chat.
  • General
    • Players get disconnected inside the Blackrock Caverns dungeon (so it will be unavailable in the current PTR).

As a reminder, our next Firelands raid test on the PTR will begin on October 15.
