Feature Request: use Bilinear/Bicubic interpolation scaling on zooming about civ2-clone HOT 10 CLOSED

You mean using custom resources so we're not dependent on the original's artwork?

We could just use AI image creation. Would be hyper fast I bet.

@IVENEND I've finally added option for texture filtering in settings .json file.
Example (TextFilter=0 is left, TextFilter=2 is right)

Hi,
Raylib offers these options for texture filtering:

Doing:
a) point ("no filter, just pixel approximation")
b) bilinear ("linear filtering")
c) trilinear
with 8 scaling factors (1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2.0, 2.25, 2.5, 2.75) I get these results:

There are probably more options for texture graphics in raylib.
Does this help?

Thanks for the reply. Of course that help! That is exactly what I talked about.

Personally I prefer bilinear/trilinear filtering (both actually look almost the same in the context of Civ2). But the best way might be adding different filtering as options in settings, in case some players prefer the old "sharp pixel" look of point filtering.

Adding this as option shouldn't be a problem. I'll keep this issue open until we get there.

THIS IS SO AWESOME! Best game ever and finally a version that might be playable on modern hardware?!?! Let me know if you want artwork to recreate it as a fully FOSS stand alone. I'm down to help.

from civ2-clone.

Yes exactly! The original art is not great anyway, and I'm pretty handy in the GIMP. Would love to do a retexture, then we could eventually come up with a fully FOSS release.

from civ2-clone.

I've redone most of the assets in the game already. Just waiting for an upload folder. Going to look WAY better. :) AND we can go full FOSS! :D

from civ2-clone.

AWESOME! But bear in mind that the new artwork is MUCH higher res, so this may not be as essential moving forward. Anyway: YAY PROGRESS! <3

I'm really excited about trying out a beta on Android, and having additional features, like disabling global warming, or nukes...
