[EFFECT] Depixelize

Smoothen edges of color clusters similar to Eagle and 2xSaI, with scale factor and blending control. Work best with pixelart and flat shaded images.

Parameters:

• Blending : Effect blending with the original upscaled image.
• Scale Factor. Works best with integer values above 1. 2 gives maximum smoothness. Use 1 (no scale) for previously scaled images.

For better results I recommend changing the Sampling in the Runtime Properties to Point. This effect can also be stacked multiple times to give smooth 4x+ scaling, or be applied just once with 3x+ Scale Factor resulting in rounded pixels.

It uses a novel and simple method that I accidentally discovered, not as good as hqx family, but gives results comparable to Eagle and 2xSaI.

Nice! I was planning on making this, thanks. Looks really good.

This effect is similar to the HD mode in the emulator of the old platforms

Works for me. Try RIGHT MOUSE and SAVE AS then put in effects folder.

that worked thank you

Yeah I dig this it looks better than scaling on emulators to me actually. Seems to prevent blending colors at edges as some of the emulators used to.
