Back There can be a problem where camera projections don't map well to polygons that are skewed to the view from the camera. The effect is a sort of triangulated breakup of the texture where no one triangle from a poly is projected the same as any other. The only solution is to make polys smaller, usually by upping the subdivision or increasing NURBS step sizes.
The other thing you could find is a softening of the texturing. Enough to show a difference if you're using a camera projection matched against liv e action.
