Global filtering setting doesn't apply to spell effect in hands

  • What is your operating system?

NixOS

  • What version of OpenMW are you using?

0c6c71f6

  • Do you use any mods? If so, does the problem also occur in a clean vanilla install without any mods?

MCAR seems to expose this problem because you don't see magic effects in your hands by default, but I doubt it's specific to MCAR.

  • What are the exact steps to reproduce the problem?

Install MCAR, equip a spell, pull out your hands

  • What did you expect to happen? What happened instead?

My selected global filtering setting (nearest, I'm sorry AON3) is applied to the spell effect in my hands. It falls back to trilinear instead.

  • What settings do you use?

settings.cfg

Possible explanation from @Capostrophic:

Because the magic effect overrides the texture in a way that doesn't mean global filtering settings will be properly set on the new texture, which means it'll use the internal defaults, which means it'll use trilinear
