I'm fully aware it's not REAL antialiasing, doesn't perform the same action, and can't be applied to anything other than the concept I've already toyed with, but for softening the dark edges of some characters it looks better to have a pixel of darker background colour than black.

It's still a quick and dirty form of anti-aliasing. It's not going to be as high of quality but it's going to be a lot faster on the 68020 and 68030 where multiplication is slow. What counts is how it looks. I always wondered why EHB wasn't used more. If the colors are chosen correctly it does pretty much double the number of colors.

What kind of game is it, mmrpg ?


Hey Einstein, don't you know about Wikipedia? Sorry it sounded cool :).
mmorpg = Massively multiplayer online role-playing game

so...

mmrpg = Massively multiplayer role-playing game?

I guess there aren't enough Amigans online for the former.
