For the record I don't see performance drop at high zoom (down to 10E-4 deg fov) on either laptop (Intel 945GM) or desktop (ATI HD 6670). Thomas On 10 September 2012 16:14, Ferdinand Majerech wrote: > --safe-mode sets GL1 Qt paint engine. > The GL2 backend reqiures the GL2 paint engine, so it fa

--safe-mode sets GL1 Qt paint engine. The GL2 backend reqiures the GL2 paint engine, so it fails to initialize and falls back to GL1. On 9/10/12, Bogdan Marinov wrote: > On Mon, Sep 10, 2012 at 2:39 PM, Ferdinand Majerech > wrote: >> [snip] >> Matthew, Bogdan: >> I can't reproduce this - but I t

Barry: Sorry, I don't mean to be too demanding. I have only one Windows box for testing here. But if you have a bug on any of these machines, at least saving the log (which now prints info about GPU/driver) would be useful. If there are checkered textures permanently, that's definitely a bug. Matt
