Abstract
A system and method for enhanced multi-sample anti-aliasing. The method includes determining a sampling pattern corresponding to a pixel and adjusting the sampling pattern based on a visual effect (e.g., post-processing visual effect). The method further includes accessing a first plurality of samples based on the sampling pattern. The first plurality of samples may comprise a second plurality of samples within the pixel and a third plurality of pixels outside of the pixel. The method further includes performing anti-aliasing filtering of the pixel based on the first plurality of samples and the sampling pattern.
