My intuition tells me that this is more mathematically correct than mipmapping, though I couldn't prove it. Also, this would be visually similar to mipmapping, but more computationally complex. This is why I imagine this being used in image manipulators rather than real-time applications. The prepro...

I still haven't made special cases for near-right angles, so it's still dividing by 0. Use the right click to manipulate the image, press space to compare sampling techniques (with the download in my previous post). It seems to work better on my Ubuntu Linux system. Pressing space for the next shad...

I see no brackets in his post

That will have the opposite effect of what you intend. You're multiplying by 16.

it doesn't deal with cycle, so local T = {} T.ref = T serialize(T) will cause an infinite loop. Yikes! I didn't think of that. At a glance, your serialize function fails to save boolean values correctly. tostring() on a boolean value will return 0 or 1, not "true" or "false". Th...

The differences are most striking at extremities: (Scale down or up lots)

EDIT: Forgot to say, press spacebar to change shaders!

when I start it up and zoom using the mouse wheel (without moving the view first) I get lots of vertical, black stripes through the image, and white pixel errors when zooming in some more. This doesn't happen when I use right click to zoom, however... I haven't made special cases for near-right ang...

There are no units.
