Wierd pixel international on sprites

[zampa]

So this is really bugging me, I have drawn a "play button" sprite but when the sprite is drawn some random pixel get added to the sprite (see picture) I have no idea why this happens, I tried to turn off interpolate colours between pixels that doesn't fix anything, maybe it's a scaling problem idk, I'm sure this is really is stupid beginner problem could someone explain why this happens and if there is a solution to this, thanks

"International"?

This is usually happens if views width or height doesn't match the ratio of views port width or height.

For example, if your view_wview is 320 and view_hview is 180 and view_wport is 800 and view_hport is 600. View ports width and height should be related to view_wview and view_hview: it shouldn't happend if it will be equal to 640x360 or 1280x720, etc.

Useful stuff:

• 16:9, as in 1280x720px
• 16:10, as in 1680x1050px
• 5:3, as in 1280x768px
• 3:2, as in 960x640 (This screen ratio is also used on iDevices.)
• 4:3, as in 1024x768

Just divide these values by 2 if you need pixel art or just smaller game and set the view_wview and view_hview to it.

I hope you get it.

Yes sorry ment interpolation

Yeah but view_wview doesn't exist with gm2, how does this translate to gm2?

camera_view_width or something like that. You have a camera view system set up, don't you?

Yes I have, maybe you talking about camera_set_view_size, but that doesn't fix it :/

What event are you drawing in? Draw or GUI?

Draw GUI, I also used display_set_gui_size();

I was messing around with the sprite editor, and I tried to make it so that the edges of the play button more thick, maybe considering the resolution I wanna play in the screen can't handle only drawing one single pixel? I mean just a wild guess, what do you think

 

[TheouAegis]

Use display_set_gui_maximise(0,0,1,1) to lock the GUI scaling.

 

[GMWolf]

Are you drawing your sprite with any scaling / rotation or does your camera have scaling or rotation?

If you make a new default room (don't change anything) and add the sprite in an asset layer (no scaling, rotation, anything!). Does it still happen?
If so, what is your GPU? At this point all the texture sampling is done by the GPU, not GM.

Use display_set_gui_maximise(0,0,1,1) to lock the GUI scaling.

I owe you big time, it worked just had to switch those numbers around display_set_gui_maximise(1,1,0,0);
