Yes, thank you both very much ... VERY educational. However -- and I mean this with all gratitude and due respect -- it still does not answer my question regarding Vue. (Or I'm too dumb to decipher it anyway! ;) )

What specifically can I do (or do YOU do) in Vue to eliminate this? As I said, I am simply using some of the default ground textures on a ground plane in Vue. There is no resizing whatsoever occuring. The example I provided above is simply a ground plane with one of Vue's supplied ground textures, some grass, and an animated Poser wolf. Is it simply a matter of cranking up the anti-aliasing?

Again, I just want to know what you do? For example, in "Fool's Games" and "Sculptor" you have some fairly detailed ground textures, but they do not exhibit the flicker/noise problem at all. How did you accomplish this? What were your anti-alias settings?

Thanks!!
