What is the correct procedure for applying textures?

No, I guess that's anisotropic filtering. It doesn't seem to affect the mip maps.
Nevermind, I just restarted Wings to refresh them instead. It loads quickly so it's not a big deal.

@vershner If you create you textures first and that is your workflow,
have you seen "Window/Snap Image" control.
That creates uv's from camera projection and assign material.

I'll give that a try, thanks!

I have to look at the mip-maps generation during refresh,
that should just work when you refresh your texture.

Are we talking about Color textures or any kind of Normal maps here?

Just colour texture.
