Differences of D3D verses OpenGL with "detail" textures

[RichNagel]

I'm sure that most "olbies" to the game(s) probably know this, but I was surprised that a lot of folks didn't (all of my Steam buddies that play these games with me).

Anyhow, FWIW, the differences of Direct3D graphics mode, verses OpenGL graphics mode with "detail" textures enabled -> http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/55...49A384D91B092/ .

For me the biggest reason for using OpenGL is extra FPS it gives, "r_drawviewmodel 0" "cl_corpsestay 0" "cl_bulletejects 0"also help clear the screen of clutter.

P.S. Detail textures and texture map files for all stock Counter-Strike maps here (works with Counter-Strike: Condition Zero as well, when playing the stock Counter-Strike maps):

P.S. Almost forgot to mention:

In the games' console, type:

r_detailtexturessupported "1"
r_detailtextures "1"

...to enable "Detail Textures"
