- Activates nearest scaling algorithm.
Type:
- boolean
- True = activate nearest scaling algorithm
- False = don't activate nearest scaling algorithm
- Video Texture width and height should be a power of 2.
- If the Video Texture is not a power of 2, the graphics pipeline automatically rescales the texture to a power of 2.
- Graphics pipeline doesn't always use the nearest scaling algorithm.
- 2 x 2
- 4 x 4
- 8 x 8
- 16 x 16
- 32 x 32
- 64 x 64
- 128 x 128
- 256 x 256
- 512 x 512
- etc
- And any combination. 128 x 512 is a power of 2.
- A texture of 300 x 300 will be automatically rescaled by the graphics pipeline to 512 x 512.
- A texture of 130 x 520 will be automatically rescaled by the graphics pipeline to 256 x 1024.
