Hot Wheels Unleashed Improving Image Quality

A little tweak that makes textures look better from certain angles.

Introduction

While browsing my car collection, i’ve noticed the textures look blurred at some angles when rotating the view. Also checked the track textures and same thing happens.

This is due the anisotropic filtering of the game isn’t good how it was supposed to be.

In this guide, i will show you how to fix that in a simple way. Let’s get started.

Disabling In-game Anisotropic Filtering

First of all, go to Options > Video > Advanced Settings.

Find “Anisotropic Filtering” option and deactivate it, like in the image below:
