Odd problem when I turn on Antialiasing

Post #1by JackHiggins » 19.07.2003, 15:22

Pretty strange problem..

Earlier today i went into my display settings>advanced>Geforce4MX440>performance and turned antialiasing up to the "Quinicunx" level- the only one where antialiasing works AND celestias HUD text doesn't get screwed up.

However, i noticed a very strange problem that happens only when i run in window mode... heres a screenshot

What's happening is that a vertical line of pixels, at the right of the strange area, are being stretched out horiontally.

BUT, if i shrink the window horizontally...

the problem dissapears!

AND, if i zoom up to full screen window mode, the problem dissapears too:

Very odd...

any help would be appreciated thanks! :D
