Does anybody can show a short example how to use mipmapping? I want to see detail texture when I approach to the wall.

If you want it so that the texture is more detailed the closer you get, you would have to do that yerself. You could make a huges texture as a .dds image and make yer own mipmaps so then it wouldn't go slowly when you are looking from a distance.

P.S. Anyone know where i can get a .dds exporter for PSP?

I have guess the more simple way. It needs to load few textures with various detalization. Then check in main loop distance between camera and object and texture this object with appropriate texture. Thats all.

Just get a jpeg to dds converter. There's many out there. I think MS website may even have something there.
