Duke_Slystalker Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 So the long awaited in-game anti-aliasing is this: Off = 0 (as expected) Low = 0 (what? seriously? please explain the point of that) High = 1 (yep, a whopping 1x anti-aliasing) So it's back to forced AA and hacking ini files it seems. The mind boggles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urko Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I would have liked a higher AA also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mind boggles. *Sigh* There is no such thing as 1x anti-aliasing... It's pretty self explanatory. Low is the lowest form of AA. 2x MSAA High is 4x MSAA.

United_Strafes Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Looks a lot better to me and have talked to several freinds who feel the same. Like we really need the E-Machnes users plodding along at 10 FPS because they turned the AA to 32x. Wonder how many stupid threads would be born there, answer: A LOT.

You are saying Low is 2x and High is 4x but you are just guessing. The numbers are there for you to see in your own client_settings.ini file.

The mind boggles. .ini files dont mean anything when it comes to the level of AA. its just on /off switches in the programming. ignorance defeats you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those setting correspond to which option you chose, not the level of anti-aliasing that was implemented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abadus Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I agree it is an on off switch. Tested this morning it took the jaggies off my speeder. That being said an on off is 2 positions not 3. If low and off are both 0 how does the program know you want low and not none? It is sorta like low med high texture settings. Just another LIE.

Duke_Slystalker Posted January 20, 2012 Author Share Posted January 20, 2012 To the guys saying it's an on/off switch - no it isn't. AntiAliasingLevel is just that, the level of anti-aliasing. I know this, as well as many others, who've also had to edit their ini files. I've tested mine on 2x, 4x and 8x and there is a noticable difference between all three settings. To the poster who said I was ignorant, it's the other way around I'm afraid. But hey, don't take my word for it, test it for yourself. Probably a good idea before making comments based on assumptions and guesswork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derbefrier Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 unless its changed since this morning i believe if you hover you mouse over the AA option is states the feature is not fully implemented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velocity-x Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 OP is correct. And you can still force higher levels through the INI file. That being said, it's retarded. Also, no FXAA in sight. May the farce be with you indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merquise Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Why would you want a higher AA setting this game is programmed SO bad that it kills even the best video cards with 1x AA LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eonz Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Why would you want a higher AA setting this game is programmed SO bad that it kills even the best video cards with 1x AA LOL While I agree the optimization is sub-par for the hype of the game. My 580 Hasn't exceeded 60c and my 2600k hasn't broken 50c. The processor is at 4.4 and my 580 (3gb vram) has an 815 core clock, a 1630 shader clock and a 2010 memory clock. So "killing even the best video cards" isn't quite accurate while running everything on High including grass and trees at 100%. 1920x1080 res.

Wolfeisberg Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 what does an in game AA do that a video card Driver setting doesn't? What difference does it make, if you don't like the in game AA, just use the AA from your video card drivers, they do that same thing, right?
