Is it me or do the graphics in F12001 look alot better from the chase cam
views than they do in cockpit? I have never been that impressed with f12001
graphics, but I have seen some really great screen shots. After loading the
ALMS addon I switched to the chase cam to take a look at the cars and there
was a big differeance in the look of the game. Is there a setting some where
for Ansi-Filtering that I need to turn on?

The cockpit view in F1 2001 isn't exactly jaw dropping. GP3's cockpit looks
better but it's only visible from one view (sprite based). F1 2001's
cockpit is fully 3D and the steering wheel, arms etc. are fully visible from
any position. If you really want to see eye candy, watch the game from the
TV Cockpit view.

Well its not that big of a deal. As long as its the same all around then its
not something wrong with my system. Thats all I really care about.

There are different LOD multipliers depending on the view you use. The
cockpit uses a multiplier of 1, however the swingman view has a multiplier
of 2 which I'm assuming means there is increased detail visible (?). I
suspect this is because the system doesn't need to render as much of the
vehicle in that view, so they can get away with more detail without a FPS
hit.
Also, In the FIA GT Mod, with the cockpit view you are looking through the
textured windscreen which is not completely transparent. It is slightly
dirty/foggy. This de-saturates the colours in the track and environment
textures somewhat.

Oh btw, it looks worse when you lower the graphics settings.
