PNG displays pixelated image.

Question

Hello all,

I'm having an issue with an image I'm testing. It looks fine by itself but shows up on my iPhone very pixelated.

What am I missing here? I want the image to be as crisp as it appears in the stand alone image.

Any help is appreciated!

I've tried all filter modes, turned mip maps on and off, I've tried different "Max Sizes" and formats. Nothing seems to work.

I've also changed the compression from JPEG to PNG which which made the image a little more legible but I still get the pixelated image.

What the original image looks like:

What it looks like on my iPhone (w/ background from the camera):

Figured out what my issue was!

For anyone else that runs into something similar:

Turn off "Compress Assets on Import" in Unity's Main Preferences and reimport your image/sprite. (The above ^^^ was the main cause of my problem.)

Set your Texture Type to 2D or Advanced. No MipMaps Filter Mode to Point Format RGBA 32 under True Color

AAAAAaaawesome! Fixed $$anonymous$$e as well. When i first read this, i thought i had to reimport everything and i freaked out. Turns out all i had to do was:

Switch each sprite from 'Sprite (2D and UI)' to 'Default' (or anything else), apply. Then, switch it back, apply.

Just remember to switch to multiple if it was, Unity's Sprite Editor remembers the slices, so you are good to go!

When you import you image, click on the image and check the inspector for the import settings.

First Note: It doesn't matter if its JPEG or PNG since the engine already will perform a compression of its own independent of the image type, so don't bother about those.

In the import settings set the format to true color , uncheck the generate mipmap checkbox (in case the image type is Texture)

Generating Mip Maps actually fixed the problem for me, for some reason.

Change the Texture type to GUI, or for some reason you need it to be the normal type just remove Mip-mapping using the debug menu ( click the gear and press debug )

Scale the PNG to 1920 x 1080 using the nearest neighbor option.

Also try changing the pixles to unit option in the sprite options menu from 100 to 96

PNG displays pixelated image.
