Hello, everyone.

I am testing basic example on iPad 1. It seems that there is no anti-aliasing applied at all. I tried setting View3D.antiAlias to 4 and 8 with no luck. I am attaching the screen-shot. Could someone test on other devices and confirm this.

yup, no AA on any device.

yup, no AA on any device.

Is it some documented “feature”? Or you just saying from your experience?

well i’ve tested on any device you could imagine but i already assumed that as AA is pretty resource-heavy in general.

It’s always good to have a choice

Is this Away3d related or Stage3D in general?

i can’t imagine any engine being able to AA at all on mobile devices. but if anyone does know for sure let us know..

Hi,

I just checked stage3d on my iPhone without framework and AA=16. No effect.

I guess fig8 is right.

hi..

I am same on my ipad3.. any suggestions??

Has anyone found any optimal settings to best display 3D content on the iPad in regards to smoothing 3d objects?

I don’t know how my friend Arrolyn Weiderhold, ipad case designer and techie developer tried and works the anti-aliasing with her. I am thinking that it is because she owns latest version of iPad.

Hi,

as for today AIR / Away3D / Stage3D anti-aliasing of 3D-content is still disabled for all mobile devices on the runtime-side.

That means that the edges of your 3d-objects will always be jagged on a mobile device, no matter what value you set on View3D.antiAlias property. On HiDPI devices (e.g. Retina Display) the jaggedness is less obvious, but still clearly visible. And no, you currently can’t make this better, i.e. “supersharp”.

You could use a FXAA-filter, but this solution doesn’t make runtime-side-anti-aliasing redundant. The only filter I could find for Away3D is this one, shared by iY0Yi:

There is a new feature-request on Adobe Bugbase concerning stage3D anti-aliasing on mobile devices I would strongly encourage you to vote for:

Thank you & good luck with your 3D mobile app.
