Oh yes, I'm seeing it on my voodoo. What kind of card are you using? I have experimented with some buffer settings, but haven't been able to fix it. I'd say it is likely a problem of the model complexity and the inaccuracy of 16bit fp (rendering at a distance). We've got a lot of objects very close together there. One idea I had was to make a zoom feature that would push the eye closer to the object on the lookat axis using an offset value, as opposed to using the fov to close in like a telescope. You'll note that the problem diminishes when the model is reasonably close, so doing something like I just described would solve the math issue that is causing this. The only problem is it wouldn't be very telescope like.
