ivy bridge, bad opengl picture quality.

Hi guys, i've got an ivybridge laptop and i was going to try trine 2 on it.
But the picture quality seems much worse (even at the max detail level) than the nvidia one.
See:

nvidia:

See the pumpkins?

Is just the driver that works that way or is there a setting i can tweak?
thanks.

Re: ivy bridge, bad opengl picture quality.

You are right, it does look worse on Ivybridge. Are you sure the graphics settings for the game are the same for both runs?

It may also be that the game changes how it renders based on the OpenGL driver, to account for bugs or features not implemented when the game was released.

Best thing to do would be to take a trace of the OpenGL commands issued by the game (you can use apitrace or some other similar utility) for Intel and NVIDIA, and probably ask an Intel driver developer to look into it.

Yep, the settings are the same and i deleted ~/.drirc as well.
I'll submit a bug report upstream to intel devs, thanks.
