We\u2019ve seen a few reports of certain textures temporarily scaling down on the Xbox 360, and not scaling back up,\u201d writes Bethesda community manager Matt Grandstaff over on the official forums.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have verified that this issue does not occur when playing off the disk and when the game is fully cached (not installed). Skyrim makes heavy use of the Xbox 360 caching system, and caches over the normal course of play while in menus or interiors. This cache can be wiped when other games are played or when the user manually removes it. We\u2019re working on a solution in the next title update for those who have installed the game.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>So, in the meantime then, just don\u2019t install the game. I\u2019ve been playing it off the disc, and I\u2019ve had no trouble wiping out Skyrim\u2019s woolly mammoths, which is really all that matters.<\/p>\n<p>MAMMOTHS MUST DIE!<\/p>\n<h5>Source: <a title=\"Bethesda Forum\" href=\"http:\/\/forums.bethsoft.com\/index.php?\/topic\/1258645-texture-scaling-on-360\/\">Bethesda Forum<\/a><\/h5>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Skyrim_screenshots_10_OrcNight01.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-25571\" title=\"Skyrim screenshot - Orc Night\" src=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Skyrim_screenshots_10_OrcNight01.jpg\" alt=\"Skyrim screenshot - Orc Night\" width=\"600\" height=\"337\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Skyrim_screenshots_10_OrcNight01.jpg 800w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Skyrim_screenshots_10_OrcNight01-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Skyrim_screenshots_10_OrcNight01-80x45.jpg 80w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Skyrim_screenshots_10_OrcNight01-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Skyrim_screenshots_10_OrcNight01-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Skyrim_screenshots_10_OrcNight01-170x96.jpg 170w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Skyrim_screenshots_10_OrcNight01-297x167.jpg 297w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Skyrim_screenshots_10_OrcNight01-530x298.jpg 530w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Skyrim_screenshots_10_OrcNight01-625x351.jpg 625w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Skyrim_screenshots_10_OrcNight01-250x140.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Related Articles<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"Skyrim PC performance analyzed\" href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/pc\/25535-skyrim-pc-performance-analyzed.html\">Skyrim PC performance analyzed<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\n<a title=\"The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim screenshots\" href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/images\/25551-the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim-screenshots-2.html\"><strong>The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim screenshots<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a title=\"Skyrim PC tweaks\" href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/pc\/25455-skyrim-pc-tweaks.html\"><strong>Skyrim PC performance tweaks<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Protip: Don\u2019t install the game to your HDD<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":159,"featured_media":25567,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_enabled":true,"_sma_x_custom_text":"","_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,4],"tags":[165,69,79],"class_list":["post-25591","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","category-xbox","tag-bethesda","tag-skyrim","tag-xbox-360"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25591","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/159"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25591"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25591\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":25595,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25591\/revisions\/25595"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25567"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25591"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25591"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25591"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
