3DLABS Oxygen VX1 - Manual (Page 23)

The Oxygen VX1/Oxygen GVX1 Driver
14
Direct3D Support Screen
The Direct3D Support screen controls Direct3D application specific driver settings for
Oxygen VX1 Windows 98 users, and lets you create your own settings. When the panel first
appears, the Defaults, Add New and Remove Settings buttons, as well as the Advanced Options
section, are hidden. They appear when you click the Advanced button.
• Click Driver is optimized for application to reach a drop down list of Direct3D
applications, then select the application you want to use. The rest of your selections
on this screen will apply to the specified application. You can also click Select
optimized application in the Configuration Manager and select your application from
that pop-up list.
• The Add New button lets you create a new setting, with a user specified name. Remove
Setting will remove user created settings, but will not remove the default settings
created at driver installation time. Default will restore the factory default settings.
• Texture Origin at Top Left Corner shifts textures slightly as they are applied to objects,
and may result in better image quality with some applications.
• 8Bit RGB textures enables Direct3D support for 8bit textures that do not use a
separate “look-up” table to specify color. These can be useful for applications which
use the new features of DirectX 6, but older applications can misinterpret these new
formats. If you have problems such as incorrect colors or poor quality texturing, try
disabling this option.
