How does one disable anti-aliasing so sprites don't look all funky?

I don't think anti-aliasing is on by default, and I'm not sure if darkbasic has commands that turn it on or off, just how do the sprites look? Funky isn't enough information.

Do they have white borders?
Are they blurry?
Are they inverted?

Just what is wrong with them? (the sprites)

They're blurred.

Sprites are in the 3D environment, so anti-aliasing is applied.
(I read the book. )

Do you know the command that turns it off?

Strait from the help files:

LOAD IMAGE file$,imgno,1

A value of one will preserve the image without adding mipmaps,
scaling or filtering and so retaining its pixel perfect quality.
"


Not sure if this is what your looking for.

Don't feel bad, I had similar issues myself which were also solved by that flag

I use it with all of my images, and it get pretty annoying. They should really make it no filtering by default - and on with the flag.

DBpro doesn't do anti-aliasing, only texture-filtering. And anti-aliasing should not blur the texture, it only filters sharp edges (the quinqunx anti-alias method does blur the edges)

So how does one disable the texture filtering?

Oops! sorry, only read the last post.

No, I don't think there are any commands for doing that with sprites.

No, that can't be. That would make a sprite-based game impossible.
I'ma see if I can find it.
