After patch 1.2 I still experienced very low res textures on my character. I messaged Gstaff about this and asked if it was planned to be fixed in 1.3 because it was left out of the update. They said this

To be honest, most of the texture stuff I'm seeing post patch either relates to normal caching based on how the game works or are situations where people are generally unhappy with the textures as they're intended.

If there are additional changes made, we'll note them in the release notes.

Thanks for playing Skyrim


Now I'm sure I still have low res textures because when I load my save after turning on the console the textures look fine, but upon entering the menu screen a few times the textures revert back to low res. Apparently the issue is fixed though...So how long should it take to properly cache because I've been playing for hours and haven't had the textures pop back to high res. Even after restarts and such.
