stewer,

Absolutely - totally get that texture filtering is happening in gamma space.

I never said it was IDENTICAL to PPro :)

Anyway, as you say, GC with subtle errors is better than no GC.

In addition:

I'm chiefly concerned with GC on skin, as it is most sorely lacking there.
Skin color maps have subtle, small variations, not big ones
These small variations are usually made to DISAPPEAR when we use texture filtering in Poser, because it is too aggressive with 4K by 4K maps.
Texture filtering also causes visible seams due to accidental half-pixel shifting.
Therefore, I tell everybody to shut of texture filtering for skin and they are very happy afterward.

Bottom line - we won't have mip-map errors cause we don't use mip-maps for skin :)

When are you guys gonna put a knob in to control the texture filtering effect. I swear, it ruins almost every high-resolution texture.
