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.

 

 

Enabling this allows applications to use this kind of

 

Support DXT

texture format. There are a few applications that can

 

only support a limited number of texture formats. By

 

texture

 

selecting Disabled, the driver will not support DXT

 

formats

 

texture formats, thus reducing the number of texture

 

 

 

 

formats supported.

 

 

This may eliminate problems with some D3D games

 

 

which display vertical and horizontal lines around

 

Alternate pixel

textures, or text that appears incorrect. However, this

 

center

setting should only be used if you are experiencing the

 

 

symptoms mentioned, as it may cause problems with

 

 

other games.

 

Defaults

This button allows you to reset the Direct 3D

 

button

Compatibility Settings to default values.
