REX OverDrive Released!

The progressive blackout occurs with XP Pro too. It's not a problem unless you are trying to do something else while the files are transferring in which case a refresh (or clicking on the desktop icon in the tool bar) gets rid of it.

I believe you, but strangely, I never saw the blackout when I was running REX 2.0 under Vista. The only other variable I can think of is that I upgraded to faster DRAM, so maybe there's an issue there. In any case, no big deal now that I understand what's going on and how to work around it. Back, now, to our regular texture-exploration programming, already in progress...
 
I can't get over how these new HD textures have minimal impact on my frames. I'm a glutton for punishment so I maxed out everything the first time I used the Overdrive textures and am very pleased with the results.:ernae:
 
I didn't want to think it - the whole 'xyz improved my frame rates' is so endless and usually exaggerated - however...

I can fly with cumulus clouds now where I could'nt before - so it is definitely creating less of a hit

imagine that
