This issue seems to be the reverse of what others have when researching this. My material looks great from some distance but blurry up close at all angles. My image is 1024 x 1024 px. How do I fix this? I display my import settings in the screenshots. Even though max size is 2048 I also tried 1024 with the same result.
Using "Filter Mode : Point" gives sharp pixels,
or adjusting Aniso Level "Increases texture quality when viewing the texture at a steep angle"
More info about each of those settings:
http://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/class-TextureImporter.html
Or if you add tiling to the material (default is 1, try 10), it looks better when viewed near, but can cause issues if its not seamless texture..

My pixel art assets all have a ppu of 32 and i have applied that to them all.
On 1920x1080, the resolution is fine, but most other resolutions the sprites pixels are squashed and stretched. I also have set the correct camera size using vertical resolution / PPU / 2). I have also used other formulas and they all give me the same camera size so i'm sure that's not the issue.
I have two moniters, one at 1920x1080, and one at 1360x768, and that moniter is where it scales wrong. Is there a way i can keep the pixels scaling the same across all resolutions? I have tried the pixel perfect camera and this doesn't fix my issue either.
https://imgur.com/gallery/Uf8YqNi Here is a sample of both resolutions, if you open them in a new tab and zoom in on the sprite you can see how tey get distorted in the 1360x768 screen.
Filter mode should be Point and compression None. If this doesn't fix it, then you should use Pixel Perfect camera. It will help you with the animations to be pixel perfect as well.
Window -> Package Manager -> Advanced -> Show preview packages -> 2D Pixel Perfect -> Instlal. Then you just add Pixel Perfect Camera component to your Camera.
I am currently making a mobile match-3 like game in unity. I have made all the graphics for the gems(the objects with which you make the matches) in Inkscape at 256x256 and exported them(PNG Files) with 90 dpi(also tried with 360 but nothing changed). My problem is that when I run the game in the editor the graphics seem to be "pixelated" and blurry. In my sprite settings I've set Pixels per Unit to 256, checked Generate Mip Maps, I am using Bilinear Filter Mode and the aniso level is 0. I have also set the max size to 256 and compression to high quality(My Main Camera's size is 10 but I tried to change that and nothing changed as far as the quality of the sprites). What can I do to "perfectly" display my sprites? Do I have to export them in some other way from Inkscape or do I have to change some Unity's settings?
Thank you.
NOTE: My sprites are not "pixel art"!
Edit(Added photos of the purple gem as file and how it is shown in editor):
Because scaling
You're display resolution on the images isn't a 256x256 region where those images are displayed, which means that they must be scaled in some manner in order to display in the desired region. Camera rendering is notoriously bad at scaling. As your images aren't Vector (and Unity doesn't support vector graphic formats anyway), scaling will always result in a loss of detail. Detail like hard edges.
Your options are:
smaller images where you have complete control over how the image is scaled down
bilinear filtering (which is fundamentally blurry)
mipmaps (which are automatically scaled down versions of your image in powers of two)
If the later two aren't giving satisfactory results, your only option is the first.
I have 5 monitors that are connected as a single monitor. Each monitor is full hd and has 1920 on 1080 resolution. In complex they are 9600 on 1080.
So my aspect ratio is 80:9.
When i create level and use standard camera it stretches my textures and meshes on the monitor so it looks ugly. When i use 3 or five cameras the picture is great but i have some cond of distortions on the edges. It looks like the horizontal line is a little bit broken. You can see it on the picture.
I tried a lot of different solutions but it is not working for me.
Is there any advices or solutions that can help me with it?
Thanks
For some reason, I can't get these tilemaps to come out like they were created in Unity...
The pixel art is imported to Unity from Tiled.

Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this?
Thanks in advance!
As requested, the sprite import settings:
Posting my comment as an answer after all.
As I suggested, one way to get rid of blurring is to set the "Filter Mode" of the sprite to "Point (no filter)" instead of "Bilinear" or "Trilinear"
Here you can see the difference between bilinear and point filtering.
If that doesn't help, try messing with the quality settings in the Sprite Import.
Increase the "Max Size" and maybe disable "Compression" or increase the quality of the compression.
Here you can see differences between the different compression qualities, ranging from "Low" over "High" to "None"
You can also try to increase the "Max Size" value for higher quality sprites. It scales the dimensions of your sprite to not exceed the specified value. If your sprite sheet is already smaller than the "Max Value", increasing it will have no effect though.
The next picture shows the differences between Sizes 512, 256, 128 and 64 for a Sprite with dimensions 423 x 467
You can see that sizes above the dimensions won't have any effect, whereas smaller values will scale the sprite down, decreasing its visual quality.
Usually fiddling around with those values should help making your sprites look sharp and not blurred anymore.
EDIT:
As #NikaKasradze pointed out, there are also default quality settings you can try. Go to Edit > Project Settings > Quality
The matrix on top gives you a selection of all current quality levels for the Editor itself as well as all build target platforms. The green tick shows what currently is selected as the default quality. You can also set the "Texture Quality" which defines the overall texture resolution in your project. You can choose between "Full", "Half", "Quarter" and "Eight Res". You should choose "Full Res" for your current default settings.
Considering you already changed the filtering from Bilinear to Point (no filter), the issue may be that Unity compresses your texture by default. This is likely if it is a POT texture (Power of two resolution).
You can override this for individual platforms at the bottom of the texture's import settings. Select RGBA 32 bit if you need the alpha channel (transparency) or RGB 24 bit if you don't, to get your texture uncompressed.
And don't forget hitting that Apply-button! ;)
If this doesn't help, could you post a picture of your import settings?
Also, what data type is your image?
EDIT:
After the import settings screenshot has been added, it seems to me the issue lies in the SpriteMode settings.
As far as I understand, the image used is a Spritesheet in form of a tilemap. Therefore the SpriteMode should be set to Multiple.
You can then click on the Sprite Editor button and cut the sheet into individual sprites using the Slice function (now separate, as of Unity 5.6).
You probably want to use the Grid - By Cell Size method, which is basically how this is handled inside Tiled.
You also want to adjust your Pixels Per Unit setting to match the resolution of your tiles (for pixel-perfect results).
I had some issues with blurry sprites and I was able to fix it by changing the resolution of my sprites in an image editing software. The resolution was 576x352 and I changed it to 512x512 and that fixed it. I think its best for Unity that images are square and have a resolution that is a power of 2 as often as possible (for example 512 = 2 ^ 9).
Make sure you disabled Mip Maps:

After literally hours of tinkering, the only solution I could come to was to open photoshop and export the tilemap at 4000% its original size.
There is still some minor blurring if I zoom in but at least it isn't as bad as I demoed in my question.
I have tried everyone's answers here to no avail, I am left with the conclusion that it must be a Tiled2Unity problem (despite it never doing this before)
I will update this post if I find a solution...
I have been having a bit of trouble with this issue with a while and have decided to ask for help!
I have a textured 1024 x 1024 area in my iphone application. I am texturing it using an image that i converted to .pvr4 format using Apples texturetool.
Now the user has the option of zooming in on this textured object....
The issue is that the quality of the image is not good enough when it is at the highest zoom level.
How can i improve this?
Should i be looking at mip mapping?
Any pointers in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Tom
If you zoom in enough on any texture, you won't see much detail.
Here are your options:
You can change the magnification filtering mode so that instead of being blocky (nearest filtering), it's blurry (linear filtering). (Or vice-versa.)
Don't use PVR texture compression. This will make your texture more detailed. (But at the usual cost: larger size, slower rendering.)
When zooming in, switch to a more detailed texture for that specific area.
The last option is the most work, but will likely give the best results. (But try the other two, they're easy.)
Also, mip-mapping likely won't help your situation. In general, enabling mip-mapping can make textured objects far away from the camera look better. It usually doesn't have any effect when the camera is close to a textured object.
PVR4-compression is rather destructive. Simply choose another format if texture quality is crucial.
