Depends on the dithering algorithm….I thought that (under release 2, anyways) that you could change it in the 3DS.SET program to different types of dithering. You could probably find it in the Reference manual. Now, what I want to know is *WHY* does 3DS, when dithering, INSIST on dithering solid patterns in 8-bit FLICS???? I can NEVER use dither on, because it shoots up the size of the file by virtue of its unnecessary dithering! Can somebody answer that one?
