View quality versus preview quality
Posted: Fri Apr 08, 2016 11:47 am
I have been working with ClipStudio's animation, and one thing that really stands out in favour of CS is its outstanding display quality.
Zoom in, out, work on 4K, 8K, draw very thin lines at 0.5px, bitmap or vector strokes: it always renders the strokes and inks brilliantly at a tremendous quality.
AS pales in comparison. Even the preview render arguably looks not as good as ClipStudio's render quality.
Mind, this seems to be the case for most animation software: Toonboom Harmony, OpenToonz, Flash, etc. all have similar issues. Some more than others. Photoshop also does a fine job, but its vector drawing tools are severely lacking, and not really suitable for vector animation/inking.
I have tried to increase the Nvidia driver quality settings for AS, and it did help a bit, but it is still FAR below ClipStudio's quality.
I sincerely hope Anime Studio's view quality will be improving soon - if CS can do it, why not AS? Or at least while inking?
