Here is another ongoing problem I have never been able to find an answer for.  How do you increase the display quality of textures mapped to the model?  The textures look good in Paint Shop Pro, they also look fine on the aircraft in Flight Sim, but in Gmax, everything turns into large blocks and it is very difficult to see how things line up.  I’ve used various colour bands to help orientate the maps but this is still way too course to position anything with any accuracy.  I’ve tried different drivers, been all through the help files, but still can’t find anything about this.

Hi Bill

Thanks

I had those set to one less than you listed here.  I did see those setting but didn't know what they were for and didn't want to mess with them.  So now I changed them and it did make a bit of differance.  GMax is bad in this regard.  That other program people use to model aircraft, is it any better?

As well as the settings Bill mentioned, there are also two other that you should have set for the best results.

In Customise>Preferences>Viewports>Configure Driver, set the Match Bitmap Size as Closely as Possible option.

In the viewport settings (right-click Top, Front etc...), make sure "Texture Correction" is set.

Here is how my GMax looks with a texture applied to an object:-

This is using the HEIDI (Software Z-Buffer) driver by the way, it's the least troublesome of all the drivers and most computers these days are fine with it speed wise.
