I've asked this a few times on IRC, but either I wasn't clear enough or my timing was really bad. I wish to get this settled. When using 2x scaling, is it possible to get the emulator to look like this instead of this? I haven't seen any options that would do that, but I'm hoping I'm just really blind. If it isn't possible, I'll have such a feature be a request for future versions. (before anyone asks, I made the first one with image editing) Thank you.
A hundred years from now, they will gaze upon my work and marvel at my skills but never know my name. And that will be good enough for me.

Windows XP and Vista does the same thing when your zooming in on images. I guess it's some kind of filter. And no, I don't know anything about removing it.

Depending on your video card's drivers, you can disable interpolation in DX and OGL from the control panel. I believe that worked on my desktop, but I know I have no such ability on my laptop.
Kirby said so, so it must be true. ( >'.')>

You can always disable DirectX acceleration completely, like this (images as guides as I don't have an English Windows): 1. Run "dxdiag" (image). 2. In the "screen" tab disable DirectDraw acceleration (image). 3. Accept the next alert (image). 4. Game now looks pixelated (image).
You're just fucking stupid, everyone hates you, sorry to tell you the truth. no one likes you, you're someone pretentious and TASes only to be on speed game, but don't have any hope, you won't get there.

Thanks, this did it. It would be handy if I knew how to disable it for this one application only, but I'm not as computer savvy as I pretend to be. I'll look into jupi's suggestion as well, as that entails disabling a particular feature instead of the whole thing. Whatever. This'll do. Thanks again.
