What are the benefits of setting Culling to D3DCULL_None ?,is this the optimum setting for performance without sacrificing too much quality?.

All settings in INFO.EXE (nVHardPage adapter info program) are WITHOUT effect on performance or quality in other applications. With this settings you can see differencies between texture filtering, mipmapping or other adjusting, which you can made in nVHardPage tweaker.

Thanx for the prompt reply Matuus,do I understand that INFO.EXE (nVHardPage adapter info program) is only an app to show you what is supported by the graphics card.
So I can't actually see whats enabled/disabled,what's supported etc.
Isn't there a setting to change it?

You read my mind

. Its good idea, maybe in next release you can change detonator driver settings on the fly.

Yes,that would be an excellent addition to an already really user-friendly interface that provides you with the ability to see the effects of your settings changes immediatly.

It saves a lotta time sparing you the need ,well in most cases, to do a bench or playtest in between every settings change.
