It seems like a fairly arbitrary limit. I'd like to render at 4k if possible for downsampling. I run 4x with maxed AA no problems, so I'm just curious if it's possible so I can downsample really nicely for screenshots.

I'm just wondering since it seems a fairly novel thing to ask about. I'd assume at best there should be some hack to make dolphin do this if it can't immediately support it right this very second?


Thanks!
There is something in the works to allow any IR you'd like, but until then you can use my custom builds here to use at least 5xIR -> http://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-unofficial-0-5xir-and-5xir-build

Be sure to scroll to bottom of the first post to get the latest build. I tend to update the builds every so often, but there doesn't seem to be all that many people calling for them.
You can also do 3x IR + 4xSSAA in d3d9 which will have the exact same effect as 6x IR. 2.5x IR + 4xSSAA will have the same effect as 5x. 4x IR + 4xSSAA will have the same effect as 8x IR.

That's really not how it works. OP: the custom-efb-scale branch allows any arbitrary IR (though your video card probably won't support much higher than 8-15x depending on AA).

That's really not how it works.

Why do you say that ? SSAA or full-scene anti-aliasing ( FSAA ) is rendering whole image at higher resolutions, then scaling it down.
If he was talking about MSAA, then you would have a point Smile

wait a second....*ANY IR???? Even up to 10x?
Sure Smile
wouldn't all that be unnecessary since you cant see the difference on your monitor i mean doesn't raising the res make it look sharper and less blocky and blurry too a certain point where you cant see a difference i feel like there is no point unless you had a huge tv and wanted to make it fit the screen or correct me if im wrong
