I have a pretty vanilla Monogame game. I'm using PNG for all my sprites (made in Photoshop). I noticed that XNA is butchering the aliasing; no matter what I do, my graphics appear jaggedy.
Below is a screenshot. The bottom half is what XNA shows me when I zoom in 2X using a Matrix
on my GraphicsDevice
(to make the effect more obvious). The top is when I pasted the same sprites from Photoshop and scaled them to 200%.
Note that partially transparent pixels are turning whiteish.
Is there a way to fix this? What am I doing wrong?
Here's the relevant call to draw to the SpriteBatch
:
spriteBatch.Draw(this.texture, this.positionVector, null, Color.White, this.Angle, this.originVector, 1f, SpriteEffects.None, 0f);
(this.positionVector
can easily be Vector.Zero
; Color.White
as 100% alpha, I think; this.Angle
can be a real angle (small >
in the image) or zero (the orb itself).
