It's bump mapping. Makes all your stuff prettier, but it does take up a good chunk of memory.

It gives a 3D look to the surface textures, little bumps and scratches, divisions, panels and so on, as you interact with the lighting. For the scale of the game it isn't really a necessity, but it is a nice touch of realism for those who want the immersion. Definitely turn it on if you are taking screenshots!

Thanks, I'll turn it to highest and see if it affects performance.
