The new filter seems to help a lot in Glide with the tire smoke type
effects...also, although I haven't checked it out to see, mipmap dithering
seems to help. I really don't know whether it's the mipmap dithering by
itself or the new filter by itself or both--but the tire-smoke effects seem
to have the old ugly dithering eliminated by 95% or so.
