I've got a georeferenced jpg that looks great in Civil 3D but the image quality is dire when draped in 3DS Max Design - see screenshots.
I've draped the image in Civil 3D and it looks as good in 3D as it does in Plan view
How can I resolve this problem?
Thanks

This is probably due to the render material. try using the image as bump maps etc as well.
Apply the material and map it to the surface using an ffd box so you can adjust it to suit, forgive me it has been about 10 years since i used Max in anger.

Thanks for this - not sure what it means though...:)

The solution - thanks to Florian at Autodesk support - to this is
Change the texturesize of the viewport by going to Configure --> Display Performance. Here you should change the texturesize to i.e.: 4048.
Then reboot 3dsMax.
