Is anisotropic filtering working at all? [not spam]

[Asferot]

I never have seen it working. Either I set it to off or 16x the image always looks the same.
So has this setting ever worked or do I need to do something else?

It does work fine, however changing the setting does not rebuild framebuffers so you'll not see any change in game unless you for example change window size.

Here's a x10 zoomed in comparison:

AF OFF:


AF x16:



Edit: Quite frankly I don't really see why we need this option, maybe on some mobiles it has an impact, because otherwise probably everyone would just want it activated all the time, it's very cheap performance wise and the quality difference is pretty huge.

Oh? So I never saw difference because of framebuffer rebuild? Mkay.

welll i dont want to look dumb but i am so where is that filter? cant find that option

[LunaMoo]

It's first option under texture filtering. On non-mobile platforms it should be set on max by default.
