Quick Information
Makes it easy to use an alternate form of window scaling that better preserves the apparent pixel sizing.Includes a bilinear filtering shader and a scene that uses it for window scaling. This prevents variations in pixel sizes at resolutions that can't be divided perfectly, while keeping pixels well defined. Especially useful for pixel art games.
Description
This project provides a bilinear filtering shader and a script for using it with a viewport to replace the default window scaling.
This is mainly useful for pixel art games. The default scaling uses nearest-neighbor, which causes apparent pixel sizing to vary when at resolutions that are not perfect multiplications of the source resolution. By using this shader and updating the pixel_scale uniform, you get well defined pixels at any resolution larger than the source.
Using it
This is a Godot 3 project. Refer to the Godot 3 documentation for how to use the editor and launch a project.
The default scene shows a test image and demonstrates the shader working with window scaling. To use it in a project, you would only have to replace the TextureRect under the Viewport with your main scene, and set the source resolution for the script.
