Sorry if this is the wrong subforum for this question but I was wondering how does texture resolution work I have searched around a bit but haven't gotten much information.
What I mean by how does it work is for example if I download and use a 4000x4000 resolution pack would I even be able to see it on a 1920x1200 monitor since technically it would be higher res than is capable of being displayed by the monitor and would a lower res texture like 720p look worse on a hd monitor rather than a 720p monitor similar to how lower resolutions look worse on an hd monitor. I know that the texture resolution isn't necessarily tied to monitor resolution but pixels are pixels when you get down to it.
Thanks for your help in advance for some reason this popped into my head today and now my curiosity has gotten the better of me
