Overview<\/h3>\n

In gaming, aliasing refers to the jagged edges that appear on objects when the game is rendered at a lower resolution than the display. This is because the pixels on the display are not able to perfectly represent the smooth curves of the object.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

There are a number of different anti-aliasing techniques that can be used to reduce aliasing. Some common techniques include:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
    \n
  • \n
    Multi-sampling anti-aliasing (MSAA)<\/strong><\/span>: MSAA works by rendering the scene multiple times at different resolutions and then averaging the results. This creates a smoother image with less aliasing.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  • \n
    Temporal anti-aliasing (TAA)<\/strong><\/span>: TAA works by taking advantage of the fact that frames in a video game are typically rendered in sequence. TAA compares the current frame to previous frames and then uses this information to smooth out the edges of objects.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  • \n
    Fast approximate anti-aliasing (FXAA)<\/strong><\/span>: FXAA is a fast and simple anti-aliasing technique that works by blurring the edges of objects. FXAA is not as effective as other anti-aliasing techniques, but it is less demanding on the GPU.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
    \n

    The best anti-aliasing technique for a particular game will depend on a number of factors, including the game’s graphics settings, the player’s hardware, and the player’s personal preference.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"sceneri-docs-tag":[],"class_list":["post-13658","sceneri-docs-glossar","type-sceneri-docs-glossar","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nAliasing -
