Direct 3D® Compatibility Settings

 

This will enable W-Buffer support for 3D games. It is

Support W-

recommended to disable this for games that do not

support this feature. Certain applications require the

buffer

increased precision of W-Buffering and will exhibit

 

 

artifacts unless the W-Buffer is enabled.

 

Z-Buffer Bit Depth can be 16 bits, 24 bits, or 32 bits. 16

Support 32-bit

and 24 are selected by default to achieve optimum

Z-buffer depth

performance. Very few applications require a 32 bit Z-

 

Buffer, so in most cases this feature should be disabled.

 

When applications use both dithering and alpha

 

blending, visual artifacts can occur. This option allows

Alpha

you to select how the application should handle both

dithering

features at the same time. In most cases Error

method

Diffusion will handle this situation quite well, but there

 

are a few cases where selecting Ordered may be

 

necessary.
