Hi, I have a sprite animation, and when i resize it to make it small. the rendering is nood good because of the black outline. Is there a way to fix that? You can compare the normal object with the small. All details on the small becomes weird and make it looks bad. ![image](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/3/e/c/3ec2c37e4b6f8ddf263cd00f7059182203ff6ebf.jpeg) Thanks for your time and your help. ---

Hey @BakuryuReitoken, welcome to the forums! Have you turned aliasing off? I know that when it comes to most assets you’re scaling down, anti-aliasing is essential for higher-quality because it smooths out the scaled pixels. I hope this can help! -Zen ---

Hi thanks, for the reply, yes the Anti Aliasing is off. i try it before posting on this forum. ---

Hi, I have try again, and i have something correct when i use the Temporal Anti-Aliasing (TAA). But is it ok to use it? it’s not possible to have something good without it? I’m asking that because most people in videogame remove the anti-aliasing in the parameters. And is it possible to have different anti-aliasing for different object? or it’s global to everything? Thanks for your time. ---

Hey @BakuryuReitoken, Well, you want Anti-Aliasing to be on, which turns Aliasing off so it does not make those jagged lines in the render. Most people recommend it being off because it comes at a cost to performance to do the math for those calculations to smooth. But, without a higher quality graphic or SVG, Anti-Aliasing is probably your next best option. I hope this can help, -Zen ---

> [@ZenLeviathan](#): > > But, without a higher quality graphic or SVG Hi, What do you mean by that? But, without a higher quality graphic or SVG I try to create big images with high quality, i was not expecting to have such bad result when i reduce the size… i can understand when i try to make it bigger… but smaller it’s surprising. What is a high quality graphic then? ---

@BakuryuReitoken It really depends on what your projected viewport resolution is going to be because I try to go for a minimum of 4X resolution scale when I’m not working with pixel art or SVG. I try to also strive for a higher PPU when working in PNG. You can change these settings in the editor too, as well as upon creation of the assets. I definitely recommend turning anti-aliasing back on, especially with 2D games, just because you have a lot of room you are saving in performance comparatively anyway. Resolution and PPU are my next best recommendations. Hope this can help, -Zen ---
