GS Texture Mapping

Post by **jbit** » Thu Jun 08, 2006 12:00 am

Last night I finished off a document detailing how to draw pixel perfect sprites on the GS while using linear sampling.

http://www.jbit.net/ps2/gs-linear-sprite.html

Hopefully it'll help some people achieve crisper looking 2D graphics when using the PS2.

I'll be releasing some more PS2 documents soon, in particular how to do sound decently, and how to use ps2kit (when it's released).

Feedback is welcome.

Thanks Jbit!

Will impliment these techniques into gsKit's sprite texturing tonight.

Great article. I never really noticed this myself, mostly because I have my PS2 connected to a TV card in my PC and expected som quality loss.

I'm very interested in taking a look at your article on how to do sound properly.

Works for me. I downloaded yesterday fine, and just tried it again to make certain it was still working.

I would assume that that is the reason the html link is broken...

jbit has made it available at http://www.jbit.net/gs-linear-sprite.html . I didn't realize that the URL had changed, so I didn't post it along with the PDF URL :-)
