Thanks Paul.
For everyone's edification, the fuzzy ground effect seemed to be caused by the
relatively large faces of the ground plane when compared to the angle of the
camera. I believe the lighting calculations were exceeding the 9 significant
digit math precision, causing essentially random rounding errors and a
noticable streaking and smearing of the face texture map. The answer was to
break the ground plane up into a grid of smaller triangles.
I am still puzzled as to why it worked in direct rendering, but not in network
rendering.
