Hi all, just a bit of a question regarding those annoying little white dots.

Now I read on another post about these pesky little varmint's being a result of graphics, better card then better performance and less white dots and certain settings then less white dots. I'm not arguing with that point, I just want to make the best of what I've got.

With the 3 new ships I have added they have more white dots than the original sins ships, not much but noticeable. So this leads me to believe that it is something that I have done that is not quite up to scratch. Another thing I have noticed is that these white dots only appear at certain zoom levels. So I'm thinking maybee it is something to do with the way I have done the mipmap's on the textures.

Could this be the case? If so what settings are desirable?

Or am I barking up the wrong tree, and its something completely different?
