Texel Alignment?

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.videocards.nvidia (More info?)

Hi all,

Out of nostalgia I recently installed an old game, Shadow Company. It seems
to run fine except all the text in the game is messed up and unreadable.
According to the support page for the game I need to adjust the texel
alignment to 0 in the advanced properties on my video card. Now, I remember
seeing this a long time ago, but for the life of me I can't seem to find it
in my current driver (v71.40). I'd prefer not to have to use a 3rd party
app, but will consider it if I have to. I'm running a Ti4600 on WinXP Pro.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Cheers.

The only thing left now is "non conformant texture clamp", but I thought
that was limited to OpenGL. Maybe NVIDIA has started using it for all
texture coords.

Rivatuner has it, the last time I checked. Something to keep in mind.

Looks, like it's only for OpenGL. I tried it out anyway and it made no
difference. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Cheers.

I found it in Rivatuner, but it's greyed out. Any idea how to enable it? Or
is it disabled by the drivers, perhaps.

Cheers.

If it's grayed out, then the registry key is probably no longer present in
the latest drivers.

It's also possible the feature cannot be enabled at the same time as FSAA,
aniso, etc., so try turning those off and see if texel alignment becomes
selectable.

Thanks, but it made no difference at all.

Cheers.
