The Tavern

In 0.15, the graphics look more smooth:


In 0.16, the edge pixels are visible.


Was something involved with antialiasing removed?

Is this local or webtiles?

There's no antialiasing in the game, although what you're seeing is a lack of filtered (typically bilinear) downscaling because for some reason the game isn't rendering the tiles in their native resolution - which only happens at very low screen resolutions.

It's webtiles, both at identical resolutions in the same browser, just different tabs.


More a mystery, then, since the above is true.

Well what is your screen resolution? I have to fullscreen the browser (usually F11) for the graphics to not be downscaled on a 720p laptop monitor.

I'm at 1280x1024 using Firefox 25.

But why would it scale one wrong and not the other with both having identical resolutions and broswers?

Full screen looks the same, only more of it.

Edit: Just checked, and the images in Chrome on the same computer look the same as above, for each respective version, in the same browser and the same resolution on different tabs.

Oddly, this doesn't seem to be the case on the same computer with Safari. *scratches head*

Ideally, we'd want this to be configurable somehow, but that's beyond me at the moment.

Try setting tile_filter_scaling=true in your config.

That does the trick! The two versions of graphics are now equivalent. One needs the setting turned on; the other doesn't, but they look the same, now. Thanks a bunch.
