Re: Pixel Art

You can force OpenGL to retain pixelated art using GL_NEAREST texture filtering:

Hello,

I'm considering using Pyglet for my next game. The graphics will be made in low-resolution pixel art. When Pyglet scales the graphics, it makes them blurry, which looks terrible. Is there a clean way to scale the graphics without any pixel interpolation?

Thanks,

Brian Soulliard

Hey, thanks for having this discussion!  I had been trying to figure this exact thing out for some time.  In my case, I just want my entire program to stay pixelated.  I added a post on the discussion you linked to, but for convenience I'll repeat it here:

----------

Thank you for this post!!  For those like me, who are simply making a retro-style game where they want EVERYTHING scaled to be pixelated, the simple quick answer is start your code with:

    from pyglet.gl import *

    glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D)

    glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_NEAREST)

And then all your usage of sprites, etc. from there on out stay nice and pixellated.  No blurring!

--------

Brian, I would guess that making this change globally like I am would affect your animated sprites and bitmap fonts as well.  I don't know for sure though, since I don't use either.

Thanks. I'll try that out. How will that interact with animated sprites? Is there a similar technique for scaling bitmap fonts?

Thanks a lot for the tip! I'll give it a shot and let you know how it goes.
