About KSP of Linux version

[Frank_Black]

Hello everyone~ I've been in game for several months, here I got a question. Today I installed the Ubuntu system, and then I downloaded the KSP 0.23.5 of Linux version. Then I started the game, only to find that the graph is of lower quality than which in Windows8.1. The outline of every ship was jagged, and I feel uncomfortable to see such graph effect.

Does anybody run KSP in Linux system? Have you met such problems before?

Thx~

Sounds to me like you have your resolution set low and it's showing it full screen. Check the settings to make sure the game resolution is set the same as your monitor.

Yeah, I run Ubuntu and it works just fine. Check your graphics settings, particularly anti-aliasing.

Also, make sure you have the latest version of the appropriate graphics driver.

IIRC anti-aliasing is disabled under Linux, due to some bugs. It may be possible to force it, either for KSP or for all programs, using your system's configuration. I believe the NVIDIA X Server Settings tool will let you do that; not sure about other graphics cards or adapters.

Umm, no, Intel drivers work great. There were issues during move to GEM and KMS, but that was years ago. Intel chips definitely lack lifting power though.

The problem here is anti-aliasing, Unity's built-in anti-aliasing was found to cause severe instability on AMD drivers around the time of the Linux version release and had to be disabled.

The latest versions of Unity have now broken the built-in anti-aliasing for Nvidia drivers, and it's never worked with Intel and the Mesa driver.

We can use the graphics drivers own software to force per-program anti-aliasing or force it system wide however.
