    Default Mipmapping?

    I play one older game 'Severance .Blade of Darkness' because they got awesome sword-comboes there.In setup there is button with sign 'no mipmapping'. I wonder what that could possibly mean-mipmapping?

    Hehe, great game

    From Wikipedia:
    MIP maps (also mipmaps) are pre-calculated, optimized collections of bitmap images that accompany a main texture, intended to increase rendering speed and reduce artifacts. They are widely used in 3D computer games, flight simulators and other 3D imaging systems. The technique is known as mipmapping.
    Quite simple.
    And happy new year.
