Scaling resolution up with Pixel Perfect Camera

Hello!

So, I was doing some pixel art, using as reference a resolution of 768x432 (16:9). I wanted to see how it was looking in Unity.

I installed the Pixel Perfect Camera preview package, dropped the component in the Main Camera of a newly created 2D project and set the reference resolution to 768x432, but it didn't work quite well.

What happened was: in the Editor window resolution / aspect ratio, I had "16:9" selected. The Pixel Perfect Camera component gave me this warning:

"Rendering at an odd-numbered resolution. Pixel Perfect Camera may not work properly in this situation.
Screen resolution is smaller than the reference resolution. Image may appear stretched or cropped."

Ok, fair enough. Then, I created a new Fixed Resolution (768x432), and it was perfect! The exact reference resolution I was making my pixel art.

However, when I tried to scale it UP, it didn't go quite as planned. In theory, it should adapt to this reference resolution while still making the screen bigger, but what I got is that the camera was actually "zooming out", which was NOT what I want to happen. Here are some images to illustrate what I mean:

1) Base 768x432 resolution



2) 896x504 resolution (with the Pixel Perfect Camera reference resolution still at 768x432)



3) 1280x720 resolution (with the Pixel Perfect Camera reference resolution still at 768x432)



So, that's what went wrong. How would I do so I can scale the pixel art up with the resolution, in order to keep the same dimensions as the base 768x432 one?

Thanks in advance.

 

I am not sure of the answer but to me it looks like it is not scaling anything.
Everything is still being drawn at the original pixel size. But now your resolution is higher so it appears smaller realitive to the max. I would assume if you go smaller it will go offscreen.

 

Well yeah, it's not really scaling. And when the resolution is smaller, it zooms in even more, so yes, things do get cut out...

 

I have the same problem

Try disabling the Upscale Render Texture in the Pixel Perfect Component.
I'm not sure however, I'm still experimenting with this feature on my pixel art game as well. My problem as of the moment is that I tried upscaling the project into 1920x1080 and it works well with the resolution. However when I use a smaller resolution things became blurry. Hope Unity fixes/improves this Pixel Camera feature.

 

I have the same problem too T_T wasted 3 hour trying to find a solution to this, the Upscale Render Texture in the Pixel Perfect Camera Component is required if you're using Cinemachine Confiner, without it if you're developing a platformer game, the camera will not show some part of the map

 

doesn't fix the problem for me.

 

I have the same problem and it's killing me. Scaling doesn't happen.
