So... any idea on how to downsample this game ?

The in-game library more or less explained it as splitting the difference between "X" (common part of previous GG title names) and "third", as a result of being the third major GG game (so, Xrd).
the ini editing didn't work for me so i ended up following this guy's post and it worked

Been looking for 10 minutes now, can't find anything in the pause menu that look to change this
Edit - nvm I'm blind apparently

Ah that's what it was. You can force 16x in the game config file as well, it's set to 4 by default.
It's definitely doing something. Everything felt just a little more blurred with it on. MAybe I'm crazy.
Ans it looks like that anisotropic filtering fix doesn't work unless you're forcing it through Gedosato.
You're not crazy. Sparse Grid Supersampling does that. It removes the jaggies but it looks blurry as hell. I don't like it.

How do I downsample the game?

Is their crossplay? If not, I'm concerned there won't be a sizeable playerbase.

No crossplay.
You need to do a negative LOD adjustment if you're using sparsegrid. -1.00 for 4x, -2.00 for 8x, that fixes the blurriness.

Always post specs or people won't be able to help you.My laptop is chugging the gamewhat files can alter to fix this issue? The frame rate drops a massive amount
I think most here are using gedosato (generic downsampling tool)
You should find it on Durante's blog.

People have been saying this for almost a year now and this game still doesn't get the credit it deserves.
It also successfully captured a legit 2d look. And then you look at The new king of fighters and you can't but help shake your head.
Thanks, I'll give it a shot.

What is the framw counter on top right? I always flounder around 1-3 ....is that bad or good?
In netplay? That's the delay (lag) between you and your opponent. 1-3 frames is pretty darn solid.
holy crap thats old. I still remember it.

Is there not going to be an OT?
Apparently forcing AF to 16 makes it look A LOT better. Also since this is doing well, they'll probably patch in the higher quality ones soon
yea it makes no sense.

So good, I can forgive that the UI is resolution locked lol.
Next paycheck, this is mine.
It's not "locked". It's just the resolution the assets are at, and somehow using a bad filtering choice.
0x080100C5 indeed "works." But, the blurring is insane, and no amount of negative LOD seems to fix it. Didn't I read somewhere a while ago that it's no longer possible to set LOD bias with newer Nvidia drivers? It sure looks like this confirms it.

meanwhile in sf5 land, rmika still looking like an oblivion escapee
gedosato's anisotropic filtering was doing that for me so i turned it off
edit:
also to note motion blur actually works in this game and looks kinda cool in motion/as a gimmick, though it's also terrible for competitive play since it obscures the guys quite a bit

Yeah, it went back to normal after I turned it off too.
But still, it looks FUCKING AMAZING at 4k.
Let's see if my 970 can go higher.

17 characters...3 are DLC that are already included with the game during the promotion period (should be the first week)
right now buying the game gives you all of the DLC already (characters, extra colors, extra system voices, Guilty Gear Vocal Collection, and Revelator theme song)
Compare your ini with this one. I was having the same issue (or just replace the entire thing).I tried using this method but got those weird red lines everywhere.

# read them before changing anything!
## NOTE 1: you might want to set most of these settings in game-specific setting files

# put them into a user config file (created with the "U" button below)

But it's possible that these bits are just bad for the game and result in shitty image quality.

I'm gonna try that later.
The game is giving me a little over 50 fps at 5120x2880 with my 970.
Pretty good I guess.
I have a bunch of screenshots, where can I upload them for nice viewing? It seems most of them are over imgur's size limit.
Thanks, so it's all correctly set as we've been doing for years, but we've got to find a more suitable compatibility bit. I guess I'll just keep looking then.
