Preload an empty texture, then upon rendering determine the
texture from the camera position and load it up immediately
before using it. This will however make things a bit slower (a
texture upload makes the whole OpenGL state machine to resynch,
flushing the pipeline)

Colour Interpolation in RGBA mode is fully HW accelerated.
