enable - True to enable dithering, False to disable. The default dxDither mode is True. |
|
Enables or disables hardware dithering. Hardware dithering is useful when running games in 16-bit colour mode. Due to the fact that 16-bit mode offers less colours than the human eye can detect, separate bands of colour are often noticeable on shaded objects. However, hardware dithering will dxDither the entire screen to give the impression that more colours are being used than is actually the case. Due to the fact that 24-bit and 32-bit offer more colours than the human eye can detect, hardware dithering is made pretty much redundant in those modes. |
