---- -----------------
ScummVM offers several anti-aliasing filters to attempt to improve visual
quality. These are the same filters used in many other emulators, such as
-MAME.
-Note: the resolutions listed assume the game was originally 320x200
+MAME. These filters take the original game graphics, and scale it by a
+certain fixed factor (usually 2x or 3x) before displaying them to you.
+So for example, if the game originally run at a resolution of 320x200
+(typical for most of the SCUMM games), then using a filter with scale
+factor 2x will effectively yield 640x400 graphics. Likewise with a
+3x filter you'll get 960x600.
They are:
- normal - No filtering, original 320x200 resolution. Fastest.
- 2x - No filtering, double screen/window size to 640x400
- (default)
- 3x - No filtering, triple screen/window size to 960x600
- 2xsai - 2xsai filtering, double screen/window size to 640x400
- super2xsai - Enhanced 2xsai filtering. 640x400 screen/window size
- supereagle - Less blurry than 2xsai, but slower. Also 640x400
- advmame2x - 640x400 scaling. Doesn't rely on blurring like 2xSAI.
- advmame3x - 960x600 scaling. Doesn't rely on blurring like 2xSAI.
- hq2x - 640x400 scaling. Doesn't rely on blurring like 2xSAI.
- hq3x - 960x600 scaling. Doesn't rely on blurring like 2xSAI.
- tv2x - 640x400 scaling. Horizontal scanlines.
- dotmatrix - 640x400 scaling. Dot matrix effect.
+ normal - No filtering, no scaling. Fastest.
+ 2x - No filtering, factor 2x (default).
+ 3x - No filtering, factor 3x.
+ 2xsai - 2xsai filter, factor 2x.
+ super2xsai - Enhanced 2xsai filtering, factor 2x.
+ supereagle - Less blurry than 2xsai, but slower. Factor 2x.
+ advmame2x - Doesn't rely on blurring like 2xSAI, fast. Factor 2x.
+ advmame3x - Doesn't rely on blurring like 2xSAI, fast. Factor 3x.
+ hq2x - Very nice high quality filter but slow. Factor 2x.
+ hq3x - Very nice high quality filter but slow. Factor 3x.
+ tv2x - Interlace filter, tries to emulate a TV. Factor 2x.
+ dotmatrix - Dot matrix effect. Factor 2x.
