texture probs

Please look at pic and tell me how to get rid of this blurr I get in games.Quake2 - ut and motorcross madness 2 all have it with ut being the least effected.i have run dets 5.33/11.01 and now 22.50's and all do it.I tweak for speed,get good frame rate and otherwise good image quality.Vid card is not oced and I have been thru every setting I can thing of.Reset everything to default speed but still there. see sig for rig

do you notice that that blurring occurs at a specific distance in every game? It looks like it..

If so, it's caused by a couppla things-

the game- differs per game, but in Q2 at least I know you can set the mipmap levels and LOD distance adjustments. That could cause this, if you tweaked a game a bit.

the drivers- some drivers set the mipmap distance short, some far, some change it according to AA level and resolution, some depend on whether anisotropic filtering is on or off.

Depending on what speed tweaks you have in place you could have accidentally caused this. ATi got in trouble recently for releasing drivers that did this, in a bad way, to Q3, thus skewing the benchmarks- the shorter the mipmap LOD distance is the less the card has to render.

I think it might probably be caused by a setting in your drivers, try turning image quality to max there and see if it goes away.

Yep same distance in each game, looks to be what would be about 6 - 8 feet if you know what I mean.I get it on the floor and walls and as I move it moves with me.I do know its a setting cause other peeps told me they had it too but cant remember what setting it was.

If you force Aniso in the drivers it should make the problem go away in all your games, tho there will be a minor performance hit.

No that does not take care of it I have tried that before with no diff at all,anybody else got an idea?

try the block tranfser mode if youre using the page flip or the auto-detect setting.
