If the maxlevel is 1, mipmapgen2d generates all the mipmaps from the original image size to the biggest size smaller than the bricksize. Ive thought about it too, because sometimes fsx shows the next mipmap just a bit too soon, so it might be nice to include mipmaps with a non linear structure.

This will help the tiles being drawn on the screen. Set this to true if a mipmap of this texture needs to be generated. Our texture image now has multiple mip levels, but the staging buffer can only be used to fill mip level 0. When using mipmaps with bilinear filtering, sometimes a noticeable jump or line can be seen in the rendered scene where opengl switches between different mipmap levels of the texture. Note the source for this sample can be found in samplesmipmapping in the sdk.
