Sharp Scaled Pixels Instead of Blurry?

Monkey Forums/Monkey Programming/Sharp Scaled Pixels Instead of Blurry?

zoqfotpik(Posted 2013) [#1]
My images are 16x16 sprites. I would like to scale them up to 64x64, but if I do this the images become blurry. I would like to retain a pixel-sharp look where the edges of the scaled up pixels (now 4x4 squares) are not fuzzy.

Any thoughts?

Mike is exactly right, but if you are doing this outside of Monkey first, and using imaging software, you will want to Resize rather than Resample (typical terminology) so that you get nearest-pixel results.

I had purchased XnView a while ago to help with transparent 32-bit PNG file resizes and have this option to maintain the quality of pixel-art graphics.
