		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;New page: ==Overview== This page describes the changes to the graphics quality system for 2.3  ==Goals== The goals are replicate the graphics quality settings from 2.99.x branch in 2.3. These change...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;==Overview==&lt;br /&gt;
This page describes the changes to the graphics quality system for 2.3&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Goals==&lt;br /&gt;
The goals are replicate the graphics quality settings from 2.99.x branch in 2.3. These changes reflect the trend in personal computing towards having better hardware 3d acceleration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Current &amp;quot;low&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;medium&amp;quot; settings use OpenGL features that are poorly supported in modern ( last 5 years) hardware and actually slow down performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Changes==&lt;br /&gt;
The current setting of &amp;quot;medium&amp;quot; will be the new &amp;quot;low&amp;quot;, and the current setting of &amp;quot;High&amp;quot; will be the new &amp;quot;medium&amp;quot;. Experimental will move down to &amp;quot;high&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
High will be the default.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some settings in high will be defaulted to more modern choices ( stencil instead of stipple for shadows)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Removals==&lt;br /&gt;
Remove requirements for OpenGL 1.0 and 1.1&lt;br /&gt;
Remove BSP rendering system&lt;br /&gt;
Remove Code fror 3dfx and riva 128&lt;br /&gt;
Remove Option for No textures.&lt;br /&gt;
Remove Texture filters that don&amp;#039;t make sense.&lt;br /&gt;
Remove Experimental&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
