Firstly, very nice looking new forum! OK on to my question. I've been testing out TS 7 with some of my older scenes and was wondering if there is a way to control texture conversion via the bridge from modeler to player? I've attached 2 screen captures to illustrate what I mean. The first, fut66.jpg is a capture of the modeling screen and the second, fut7.jpg is a capture of the player screen. The files are slightly compressed (level 10) jpegs so they may be a little more extreme than what I see on my screen.

Maybee you could try some bloom too. Post by SteveBe // Jan 28, 2006, 10:48pm SteveBe Total Posts: 282 Hi mrbones! (or should I call you Jean Luc!:p) The texture I'm talking about is the skydome background, I'm happy with the rest of the smaller textures. You can see how it has banding in the clouds like it's been converted to highly compressed jpeg.

Post by SteveBe // Jan 28, 2006, 11:50pm SteveBe Total Posts: 282 Hi Délé & Cayenne, Thanks for the suggestions. I checked my settings for Texture Hardware and it's set to No limit. I also checked Txt Res for Player and it's set to 2048x2048. The sky texture is a 1500 px X 525 px. tiff file from Tom Marlin's samples. I'll try some testing of different resolutions in Photoshop. Thanks again for the suggestions, Steve edit: I guess I should add, I'm running an ATI x800XL 256 MB video card.
