If you dont want to use it, disable it by yourself by using nHancer or Rivatuner. This tweak is actually good for people who still play some old games, it improves the image quality so there is no really good reason to disable it since it just affects this game. | |

Quote:
The reason for this functionality existing was because of a hardware issue with the original GeForce (which you obviously don't have) causing artifacts on hardware decompressed DXT1 textures.
By enabling this functionality on any newer cards you'll be causing DXT1 textures to use 4 times as much memory for no reason at all. This increased memory usage might even degrade performance.
| If that is true then would it not be best to disable this option by default. People who play those old games then can turn it back on. Majority rule? I bet most users of NGO Optimized drivers do not play old games that need this fix. | |

I'd like to add that in addition to ETQW, this tweak seriously messes with the textures of Warsow.
