Maybe they (and I) are wrong, and the source of the AA is actually downsampling, like NXGamer has said. However, there's some form of AA going on, which is why Digital Foundry believe that TAA is turned up at this buffer size. In the light of all this, I think the game isn't downsampling, which would universally smooth the whole image. The blanket edge from region 6 bolsters this (though doesn't prove it either). But all of them put together seem to indicate AA that's only operating on parts of the image. Yes, it's possible to explain away all the sharp, pixel-scale noise on the windows, the highlighting, the motion blur, etc. This also suggests no universal benefit across the whole image. Sharply distinct, in fact, to the point where I estimate there's no real blending at all. Your mileage may vary, but though parts of the arm are blurry, to me each blade/fin looks tripled and distinct.

The motion blur on Batman's arm suggests that three consecutive samples are being shown.

First will be an overview of the whole shot, and then I'll talk about each stop on my visual tour (400% zooms, outlined in red).Īnd finally, here's another suggestive bit of info. So let's begin with one of your shots, and I'll take you through how I examined it. So one way to tell if something doesn't downsample is to find pixels that don't blend. This leads to smooth and gradual transitions wherever one color touches another. In general, how do we determine if a game is downsampling? Well, that technique blends adjacent pixel values together to form a smaller buffer. Corrective criticism from those in the know is welcome. People with actual computer science backgrounds will be rolling their eyes, but I want to be open about how I think and operate, so you can decide whether to trust my method and results. In all that follows, keep in mind that I'm almost certainly about to expose my ignorance. Now, Tyaren, to your question about Injustice 2 and downsampling.

I guess if this is still not clear enough, I should revise again. The results are not as sharp as native rendering, CBR, or many temporal accumulation schemes, but they do avoid a lot of upscale blur.Ĭlick to shrink.I just recently changed the explanation and accompanying mode picture for this in the OP, have you read that version and is it any clearer? The upshot is that yes, modes that don't have any tags at all are freely selectable by all.

It's also not exactly like the Pro method 'geometry rendering' (which I list as, say, 2160 geo) where only edges have the higher resolution and surfaces do not 'subpixel uprendering' improves texture filtering too, though perhaps not as much as high-contrast edges. To me it sounds very much like standard upscaling described weirdly, but having seen the games the results are definitely much better than just upscaling. I've read the patent, but I still don't get exactly what it's supposed to be doing. In this, it's like the 'Heutchy Method' Microsoft has touted recently for a handful of Xbox 360 games improved on Xbox One X (in purpose, almost certainly not in tech).

They use it to bring PS2 games up to PS4 resolutions. Click to shrink.I think you're the first person who's ever asked that! It stands for 'subpixel uprendering', which is Sony's term for their patented emulator improvement algorithm.
