If you're using Quesa 1.6d18 then _neither_ will downsample (the filter 
modes don't use mipmaps in that version, whether you supply them or 
not). Mipmap rendering is only implemented in the CVS source at this 
point. I'd really recommend compiling yourself a new Quesa lib from 
source rather than using the 1.6d18 release - unless there's a current 
bug that is holding you back.
