  2. Once inside the SETTINGS page navigate to the GRAPHICS page and click on it.
  3. When in the GRAPHICS page scroll down a tiny bit till you find Extended Texture Budget.
  4. Click on Extended Texture Budget and increase it. Its recommend to have the bar set around 75% full but you can set it to whatever. Setting it to 100% can sometimes cause issues and too much load on your device. Make to keep your total memory bar in settings out of the red or yellow.
