Minor Problem with 32bit stuff
Whenever I use a 32-bit background interface image (size 1024x768 on a screen resolution of 1024x768) the image seems to be stretched around (i.e. i can see the pixels that should be at 0/y at 1024/y, x/768 at x/0, etc; diagonal lines (best seen on 45° angles) get stretched and look pretty ugly. This does not happen with 8-bit backgrounds, and it happens both with JPG and TGA files. Any other images (buttons and the like) will not be affected by the stretching thingy.

Is there some way to fix this... please? :)

[color=cc9900]Which SCP release are you using? And also, is your graphics card set to anti-aliase and/or use anisotropic filtering? Those caused a fair few problems for me with the interface before I turned them off.[/color]

yeah, anti aliasing causes problems. That's why i have it turned off. So that isn't the problem.

Using the latest release.

It's got something to do with some DX filters or something and there's no workaround without rewriting the 32 bit stuff, I fear. This blur makes 32bit for interfaces useless IMO.

just had a thought.... why does it display only backgrounds that way, then? :confused:

And it's not really a blur. it's actually kinda resizing the image :wtf:
