Image preview is pretty inaccurate

Post by DDDsDD999 »

The in-game ones when you try to craft the sketch are WAY more accurate to the actual representation than the one in the image upload. I think people could be pretty pissed if they didn't realize it.

Well, texture filtering will always be working slightly differently between different OpenGL implementations, so there's no way it can be completely pixel perfect. The exact perspective and on-screen size will also make a difference, due to how such things affect texture filtering. Especially so if you use heavily dithered pictures like in your example.
