Pixel Art and anti-aliasing

[delcore92]

Hello i have some pixel art that is 8x8 and i wish to have it scaled up. my problem is when the image is scaled the pixels are blurred. i want to achieve a nice crisp blocky look. If anyone could help me that would be great

Check out (Image):setFilter or love.graphics.setDefaultImageFilter, using the "nearest" filter mode.

Thank you! The problem is solved !

Here's the solution :

Code: Select all

function love.load()
    love.graphics.setDefaultImageFilter("nearest", "nearest")
    ship = love.graphics.newImage("images/spaceship.png")
end

Also consider using integer coordinates (with math.floor) when you draw the ship on the screen. If you use raw float values, you might get "pixel artifacts" - the pixels of the image will "change" while the ship moves.
