Yes, fifa 07 demo is out and we can see the new kit format..wow!.
but this year the graphic engine is a bit huge respect last year...kit in 2gk are good to view but is heavy for graphic engine.
The solution?.....use mipmaps.
What are mipmaps?here a simply explanation of the word(taken from FSHed help guide):
Many fsh images will contain mipmaps, or progressively smaller versions of the image, within the file. During game play, these smaller images are useful in that the computer does not have to use processing time to rescale the image. These images have been "pre-processed" for the computer and are conveniently stored in the fsh file.
Each mipmap is exactly one-half the size of the previous mipmap. Therefore, there is a maximum number of mipmaps that an image can have (depending on its initial size). Also, the dimensions of the image should be divisible by two (or in some cases four). For example, an image with dimensions of 256 x 257 could not contain mipmaps since 257 is not evenly divisible by two (or four).

To make a fsh with mipmap use a simply program called FshEd 0.05 you can find easily with a query on google.
To insert the mipmaps:
Open FSHed program and then go to Open menù.Then open the fsh file (example a kit) and go to Object menù and Edit submenù.In mipmaps textfield insert a number between 3 to 8 and save fsh.Then reimport the fsh in your fifa.

I personally don't like mipmaps very much. If you import a (big) texture by using any tool kike kit raptor, and this tool automaticly resizes the texture, the quality of the smaller textures is not very good - and if you resize the textures manually it is too much a work...

Surely, the mipmaps makes it esier for the engine, especially on slower computers, but the quality of the kits would only be the a good one in the view of the big texture....

i think the easiest solution would be 2 versions or an option to use mipmaps in future kitraptor release...

That's a good idea, let the users decide which version they want... mipmaps or no mipmaps...

Mipmaps eases the workload on slower computers by displaying the appropriate size of the image you need on screen, instead of the processor doing it.
