slightly blurry nesterdc?

Post by yuppster »

I've used nesterDC for awhile...since it's earlier versions, and I've noticed that the newer releases look a little blurry, like they are at the wrong resolution. This might be since the implementation of "full screen" mode. Not sure, but it bugs the heck out of me. I want to see the nice and clear pixels just like on my NES. Any fixes or responses to this?

I can't recall since I haven't booted nesterDC in awhile, but isn't this blurriness a feature of full screen stretch? I can't remember if you can turn this off in the options however...

This same filter is within the Nvidia drivers for my card on the PC. I have actually gotten used to it and now prefer it even in the DC emulators. Reaper, I wonder if you can add this filter and have it selectable on/off in System 16 emu?

Because of the difference in resolution of the NES and the Dreamcast a blinear filter makes it look more natural in full screen mode. I have some nice screenshot examples what it exactly does, I post that info at the end of the month.

I think bilinear filtering looks good on NesterDC. :D

I'll try toggling the bilinear filter. I think I tried that and it didn't seem to make a difference. I'd even prefer an un-blurry image to a complete full screen mode; and I'd definitely keep the bi filter off the system16 emu (or at least an option to turn it off). Thanks guys!
