I think the ones who are quick to criticize, need to look instead of judging so quickly.

Rockstar would not load up the crappiest image to support the AA Issue in their next game release screenshots.

Yeah, those aren't birds..

Dear God son. Crank up up the resolution when you stretch like that. Of course you got distortions.

That's what I thought... You're pic is resized using a filter so it was slightly blurred, giving bad aliasing to an aliased line. This is straight from the screenshot stretched up uniformly with to filters - there are no distortions here aside from the lack of aliasing from the original picture.

That's the joke and a perfect way to prove it isn't lack of AA.

Except for the lack off AA in his image editing program.

Mine are not blurred, They are enlarged without distortions





I mean really... look at his image.. Is that how gta looks when you play it ?

Notice the details in the image I posted. You see window frames and trim slightly better.

There was birds at the docks part in the trailer

Yes they are blurred because you're using a cubic, or linear interpolation to scale the image which blurs and distorts the original image, which when you take something that is heavily aliased into two or three pixels, you blur them into what seems like round objects.

Nvm. Didn't know it was enlarged.

Are we looking at the image differences or running with Semantics?

Here is the original size image
With just a cut section for focus

Its called lack of AA, noob!

Lol I am such a retard! At first I thought you meant lack of batteries.

[WhitValid]

here a bird there a bird everywhere a bird bird




I really like this topic and agree that those are nice birds.

[Choco Taco]

It's not an aliasing thing. It could be birds.

[GTARandom]

It's not AA for sure, now you can trust me by knowing my past work i hope.

Anyway, those wires/cables use different shaders from the rest of standard objects which are in the game , and at that just to prevent that very problem.


Just look at this image:




Cables simply fade in the game environment and besides they're just alpha textures UV-mapped anyway, so it's not such complex geometry here and V is not a downgrade from IV

not aa but i guess it's some other glitch , remember the game was (or is)still under construction that time

[1whitebuddah]

if it was AA then the power line behind would look the same, its definitely birds

[HUGOHL]

Oh, oh, silly people, this must be just something birds do in the cables, sorry for my poor English, but here in Mexico, there are some round sh*t up there, birds make it every time, maybe there are in LA too.
