Mip-Mapping in Direct3D 8.x
Author
I know, D3DX helps a lot. But I need any example, because I don''t know HOW do that.
What is the RenderState I need to change to enable the mip-mapping? What is the D3DX function to create the texture mip-maps? Etc...

D3Ddevice.SetTextureStageState 0, D3DTSS_MAGFILTER, D3DTEXF_LINEAR
D3Ddevice.SetTextureStageState 0, D3DTSS_MINFILTER, D3DTEXF_LINEAR
D3Ddevice.SetTextureStageState 0, D3DTSS_MIPFILTER, D3DTEXF_LINEAR
don''t forget to set the number of mipmaps while loading the texture D3DX_DEFAULT works good

Thank you! Direct3D''s mip-mapping is sexy ''

Does Dx8 create the blurred far away images or do you have to create them yourself?
It can do. D3DX will also do a better job. Though both are done at runtime so favour speed over quality.
Really the far away image shouldn''t be blurred (i.e. lose detail) or change luminance. For the best looking results mip-maps are better generated offline with gamma correction and frequency aware methods.
