Jim,
Here's my personal observations with regards to the new version -
* No noticable improvement in the banding issue on the Powder Blue Tang.
* Purple Tang appears to have the same texture compression banding as the Power Blue Tang, only far more noticable.
* Not sure if this is a texture issue or what, but there's a hovering artifact just above the coral in the background. I've seen fish swim behind it as they pass by and from time to time it disappears and reappears.
