General Question: Rendering

This is the anti-aliasing pass.

You can zoom closer to make them more visible.

When AA is turned off, the second pass is very short. If it takes as long as before, this may be a bug. Could you post the filter here?

Just post the filter as an attachment here in the forum (press Ctrl-L when the filter is selected in Filter Forge browser, you'll get an Explorer window with filter in question selected).

@Vlad: But I really cant see any improvements even in 100% oder 200% enlargement. The second pass is a mistery to me, when there's no AA activated.

@onyXMaster: Just try the general wood filter in a bigger resolution (probably with nearly every filter that takes its time). Get a render size of 1000x1000 Pixel (or more) by opening any picture of that size and try the filter in full view. Activate the seamless tiling and wait...

Try to save the image before rendering ends.
When the main image (the frame-tile) is ready the rendering still goes on for quite a while. If you have big sizes, that can mean 20 seconds and much more...

Hi Vlad,

sorry, I think it was my mistake.
The AA-setting is normally set to 5samples, if I switch it off, there is nearly no time-lack after rendering the tiles completely.

Here is one of my filters, anyway - kind of Burlwood.

Still cant upload the filters directly via ff (tried everything now).
