Super Mario Sunshine | Super Mario Sunshine reads the mip level of the sand to change the color of the water slightly in the distance. This effect cannot be detected by '''Arbitrary Mipmap Detection''' normally, as the sand is just a standard mipmap, so at higher internal resolutions the ocean will appear a bit greener. The effect is very subtle, and may not even be visible on your monitor, depending on its color reproduction capability. | ||
Adding <code>ArbitraryMipmapDetectionThreshold = 3</code> (this value was determined empirically) to the <code>[Video_Enhancements]</code> section of the [[GameINI]] will make this effect work at higher internal resolutions. However, this will make a few other random textures appear more blurry. | Adding <code>ArbitraryMipmapDetectionThreshold = 3</code> (this value was determined empirically) to the <code>[Video_Enhancements]</code> section of the [[GameINI]] will make this effect work at higher internal resolutions, by causing the sand texture to be detected as an arbitrary mipmap. However, this will make the sand a few other random textures appear more blurry in the distance. Using any HiRes texture for the sand will prevent the effect from working. | ||
