Ok, i'm not quite sure if this is a bug or a feature
request, so i'm putting it here. Feel free to move it
to the correct place...

The earth-map screen (geoscape) behaves rather sluggish
(i.e the mouse reacts/moves very slow)[1] , but the
rest of the game (except the 3D view which I can't
verify since maps do not load for me... might be a real
bug) is displayed very fast. Also i've played the TD1
very fluently (3D as well), so I don't think it's a
'power' question.

Is there a chance that the geoscape will be made faster
in the future?
Or can anybody get me some tips/hints how the map is
drawn so i can search if i find a faster way?

Werner

do you try set to set the gl_maxtexres to a lower value?
possible values are 256, 512, 1024 and 2048

Ok, i've set the value in the config.cfg as following ...

set gl_maxtexres "1024"

... and it works for me now :D .. marking this 'bug' as such.

Many thanks,
Werner
