I have been fooling with my cards settings alot lately, I have the older TNT V550 card, 16mb, but it still chugs along pretty well. I have started to learn more about the tweaks and have had reasonable success improving things when I have a problem. I am now using the Riva Tuner, and wow, theres alot more to choose from. Unfortunalty I am finding alot of what I read and what I set are not quite the same, for example I know some basics about mipmaps but...Setting User Mipmaps, vs diabling ?? or how to get the auto mipmap to work?... I can usually figure out what I want to do, but dont have much in reference documents or detail info for the Riva Tuner. Is there a listing somewhere that gives some idea of what these functions are and at least a basic description of how they affect thinks. such as the control panels settings giving a basic description if you right click the funtion. I have read some of the tweak info, and it touches on things, again like mipmapping, but I now have the 6.18, I think, detonator drivers and the options are slightly different, etc, and there not on the driver list I found either.<IMG SRC="smileys/bounce.gif">
I intent to post a guide sometime soon, but not in the next 2 weeks that's for sure.<br> <br> For TNT1 use the 5.32 drivers as these are the best, just like 6.50 are the best for TNT2.<br> <br> With these you will also have control of the automipmap(enabled only in 2.xx-5.xx series).<br> <br> Always leave usermipmap enabled, is only for testing purposes.
The next version of RivaTuner (RC7) will contain VERY detailed context help system, which explains everything about each tweaking option. It will be published on the next week.
I like it when we're still busy workin' on RivaTuner, upholding the position of the best Geforce tweaker ever created!<br> <IMG SRC="smileys/hot.gif"> Keep up the pace Unwinder!
