I 'aint 'alf a happy chap.
So glad that Papy released this patch.. Everything is just better - and
being able to actually use the mirrors is wonderful.
Trilinear filtering is a huge improvement. I always hated the way the track
textures were so blurry with the previous opengl settings. You lost the
sensation of speed somewhat.
Anyway I'm now getting about 30-31 fps (1280x1024) at the start of a race
which quickly goes to 36 once everyone has moved down the track a bit. This
is with the detail bias set at halfway. Everything else on max.
Still enjoying this (gpl) so much more than anything else ( even after 1 1/2
years of playing ! )
Just wanted to pass on the gospel to other TNT2 users.........

Jacon.
