Steps:
1.Changing "Mipmapping" applies change in registry but it does not work in the game anymore, mipmapping is now stuck at min setting.
Mipmapping is a graphics setting in the config program, to lessen shimmering textures at distance.
Upon further reading, it seems this is intentional. However this makes the game look significantly worse for many users.The issue in the FINAL FANTASY XI Config Graphics tab wherein leaving the Draw Distance option unchecked did not work as expected.
You could change this in the registry manually to go from 0 to 6 previously to improve the effect and now you can't and it looks terrible because it's now only 0 to 1.
Please consider changing this back, this looks awful to many users..
