Gostaria de tornar meu jogo ampliado com um dos filtros hqx (hq2x, hq3x ou hq4x) ou um filtro xBR em um shader.

Como posso fazer isso no XNA 4.0 e no SM3?

Nota lateral: esta questão foi fortemente editada para se tornar o que é agora.

Você pode reduzir a contagem de instruções usando operações vetoriais: por exemplo, em vez de

edr = bool4((w1.x < w2.x) && ir_lv1.x, 
            (w1.y < w2.y) && ir_lv1.y, 
            (w1.z < w2.z) && ir_lv1.z, 
            (w1.w < w2.w) && ir_lv1.w);

você pode escrever

edr = (w1 < w2) && ir_lv1;

Os operadores no HLSL podem ser aplicados a vetores, mesmo os lógicos, como &&dois bool3valores. Esses operadores executarão a operação componente a componente.

• Amostragem pontual

• xBR

Eu consegui isso funcionando. Ele não usa o filtro hqx, usa o filtro xBR (que eu prefiro). Para mim, isso não é um problema. Se você precisar do filtro hqx, convém converter os arquivos .cg no equivalente XNA apropriado.

Por motivos de integridade e pesquisa, editarei a pergunta para ser mais concisa e depois publicarei todas as informações relevantes para responder à pergunta aqui.

Etapa 1: Configuração do código do jogo

Primeiro, você provavelmente desejará configurar um destino de renderização no qual desenha seu jogo em uma escala de 1: 1 e depois renderiza o filtro.

using Microsoft.Xna.Framework;
using Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Graphics;

namespace xbr
{
    /// <summary>
    /// This is the main type for your game
    /// </summary>
    public class Game1 : Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Game
    {

        GraphicsDeviceManager graphics;
        SpriteBatch spriteBatch;
        RenderTarget2D renderTarget;

        Matrix halfPixelOffset = Matrix.CreateTranslation(-0.5f, -0.5f, 0);
        Texture2D pretend240x160Scene;

        // the bounds of your 1:1 scene
        Rectangle renderBounds = new Rectangle(0, 0, 240, 160);

        // the bounds of your output scene (same w:h ratio)
        Rectangle outputBounds = new Rectangle(0, 0, 720, 480);

        public Game1()
        {
           base.Content.RootDirectory = "Content";

           this.graphics = new GraphicsDeviceManager(this);
           this.graphics.PreferredBackBufferWidth = outputBounds.Width;
           this.graphics.PreferredBackBufferHeight = outputBounds.Height;
        }

            this.renderTarget = new RenderTarget2D(base.GraphicsDevice, this.renderBounds.Width, this.renderBounds.Height);

            // default vertex matrix for the vertex method
            this.projection = Matrix.CreateOrthographicOffCenter(0, this.outputBounds.Width, this.outputBounds.Height, 0, 0, 1);

            // set the values of this effect, should only have to do this once
            this.xbrEffect.Parameters["matrixTransform"].SetValue(halfPixelOffset * projection);

            spriteBatch.Draw(this.pretend240x160Scene, this.renderBounds, this.renderBounds, Color.White);

            spriteBatch.End();
