Celestia SVN and LUATOOLS: an issue

Post #1by Fenerit » 13.10.2009, 22:10

The image below show SVN version + LUATOOLS in which the borders of toolkit are sharpen and with no alpha, while in the config.lua they have alpha.

The image below show instead the same screenshot but with the cloudmap disable. It show LUATOOLs toolkit as default (with alpha). When I set the clouds the situation is the same as above, and so on. My video drivers are up to date but this issue is present also with my previous driver version. I wonder whether someone has found this behaviour. Note that with official Celestia, all is perfect, whatever be the video drivers.

Massimo,

I can indeed reproduce this issue on my system. It seems to be linked to multisample antialiasing.
I personnally have set AntialiasingSamples to 4 in my celestia.cfg. Enabling the cloudmap seems
to disabled text antialiasing, and vice versa. So this looks like a Celestia issue rather than a Lua
Edu Tools issue.
