RASTER_DEVICE 1

N3 still uses my TNT2 for the D3D device as I have disabled my V2 to check
that it can't be selected. The images/textures are much clearer and are
comparable with the 3DFX version.

Can someone let me know if this works for any card setup/combo as it may
solve some of the problems people are having with the blurry D3D car
textures.

To go back to blur change it to:

RASTER_DEVICE 0

Hope this helps,

Darren

Why not have a look at your TNT's D3D settings? Try less mipmap levels,
go all the way down to 0 if necessary, and higher mipmap detail for
starters and you can have those sharp textures with all your games.
If you can edit an .ini file you should be able to find your way to
Display Properties without a problem.

I have an Asus TNT2 Ultra Deluxe card - when I use the Nvidia reference
drivers I can edit mip map levels and dithering but with the Asus drivers I
can only 'restrict' mip mapping - which to be perfectly honest seems to make
*** all difference to the sharpness of the picture in N3.

Unfortunately, I need the Asus drivers for VR glasses support, TV OUT and
Video in as the card comes with quite a few extras. The reference drivers
don't support any of these.

Anyway, the above fix works for me and I thought it might be useful for
others who were having problems with blurry textures.
