ATI/AMD's new Morphological Anti-aliasing

this filter blur all the scenario, text, texture, etc
affect programs too, like windows live messenger, the text is very blurred and hard do understand...
but in games i'ts a nice filter, combinated with aa 8x

 

There is a simply way I got MLAA, etc working (Win7/Vista)
1. Install Cat 10.12 (CCC2 preferred) then reboot

2. Next open up CCC and navigate to Software and check your 2D Driver File Path. The registry location for some may not be the same for others. For some it maybe: :/MACHINE/SYSTEM/ControlSet001/Control/Class/{4D36E968-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}/0000 for others it maybe: /MACHINE/SYSTEM/ControlSet001/Control/Class/{4D36E968-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}/0001, etc. But always check with CCC first.

3. Next, click on the start button and in the search box type the word: regedit. Select regedit by right clicking on it and select "Run as Administrator". Goto: /MACHINE/SYSTEM/ControlSet001/Control/Class/{4D36E968-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}/000[X] (X denotes whatever CCC 2nd Driver File Path tells you) & locate and change the following (right click on it and select modify):
-Change MLF_NA from 1 to 0 (MLAA)
-Change SurfaceFormatReplacements_NA from 1 to 0 (Surface Format Optimizations)
-Change TFQ_NA from 1 to 0 (Mipmaping textures)
-Change GI_NA from 1 to 0 (Geometry Instancing)
-Change EQAA from 1 to number 0 (New AA called EQAA)

4. Now open up the UMD sub key located /MACHINE/SYSTEM/ControlSet001/Control/Class/{4D36E968-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}/000[X]/UMD and add the following:
Right click, select new, select string value and enter: MLF_DEF. Then right click on MLF_DEF and select modify. Enter 0.
Right click, select new, select string value and enter: SurfaceFormatReplacements_DEF. Right click on SurfaceFormatReplacement_DEF and select modify. Enter: 0
Right click, select new, select string value and enter: TFQ_DEF. Then right click on TFQ_DEF and select modify. Enter: 1
Right click, select new, select binary value and enter: GI. If already there then skip. Right click on GI and select modify. Change the numeric value from 31 00 00 00 to 30 00 00 00.
Right click, select new, select string value and enter: GI_DEF. If already there then skip. Right click on GI_DEF and select modify. Change the numeric value from 1 to 0.
Right click, select new, select binary value and enter: EQAA. Then right click on EQAA and select modify. Enter: 31 00
Right click, select new, select string value and enter: EQAA_DEF. Then right click on EQAA_DEF, select modify. Enter: 0
Right click, select new, select string value and enter: EQAAMapping_SET. Then right click on EQAAMapping_SET, select modify. Enter: 0(0:0,1:0) 2(0:2,1:2) 4(0:4,1:4) 8(0:8,1:8,2:16)


5. No need to reboot just open up the task manager and end the process for Mom.exe. Next go to File (we are still in task manger). Click on New Task (Run...) and type Mom.exe and hit enter. Now check your CCC settings again.

When adding string values this is what I mean:



When I say check CCC to determine the registry location below is what I'm talking about (2D driver file path):





Sidenote:
EQAA is a new feature. It is not clear if it will work on the 5800 series or not even though you can enable it in CCC. What is clear is that MLAA will work on the 5800 series.

 

Mom.exe ? What is that ? You guys are going way over my head. I changed the variables you mentioned in regedit. I went to task manager, there was no 'mom.exe' present. I think I should just forget about it now.

 

really works

 

BINGO!!! Followed your directions and it worked perfectly. I have the new preview ccc2 installed. Killed and restarted MOM.exe in TaskManager. No reboot. Opened CCC and there is was.:thumbup:

Glad to have the Texture Filtering Quality slid bar and the Enable Surface Format Optimization box in Catalyst A.I. back too. Tried all other suggestions to no avail. Thankyou!!!!

 

It is probably the DEF registry under UMD that people missed to edit or add. They seems to be focus on the _NA registries and forgot about the _DEF etc.

 

No problem. I edited the post to include step 1 which you already did.

 

I normally just go into the CCC section in start menu and restart the runtime after modding any reg settings etc, I'm lazy and it's only a couple of clicks lol

 

LOL, the runtime feature normally present with the CCC install is not found with CCC2 from the start menu's all program section.

 

Where is regedit on window 7 64bit ultimate?

 

go to the "start" button and type regedit into the "search programs and files" field

 

HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\{ID}\0000\

just type regedit in search bar in start menu.

 

Ok got it working.

 

the script really works, eqaa + mlaa + hq af

 

"It is probably the DEF registry under UMD that people missed to edit or add. They seems to be focus on the _NA registries and forgot about the _DEF etc."

Please explain that for me. I have edited the NA registeries but what about the DEF ? Where is that in the registry ?

Everyone seems to be getting this to work and I have a feeling I'm just missing something. I'm so close.

Okay, never mind about the DEF values. I found it. But when I click add string value, I just copy and paste TFQ_DEF = 1 and the two other values ? If I do that then it doesn't show the value on the data side. It just shows a blank variable on the data side. Is that supposed to be correct ?

Also, what is mom.exe ? I'm getting closer, don't give up on me.

 

Alright, never mind yet again. : ) I added in the data values on the right side as per instructions. Now what ? Must I reboot after I've added in those variables ? What about mom.exe ? What is that and must I do anything further ?

 

Wow, ok...what you were suppose to copy and paste as a string value was TFQ_DEF not TFQ_DEF=1. But I think you figured that out.

Once you've changed the values for the {4D36E968-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}/0000 then added string values for {4D36E968-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}/0000/UMD open up windows task manager. Tab over to Processes, right click on Mom.exe then choose end process. Wait a few seconds. Now move the mouse cursor up and click on File (you are still using Windows Task Manager). Select New Task (Run...). A screen will pop up. Type Mom.exe in the rectangle box named Open:________. Click on the OK button. Wait a few seconds and re open CCC.

 

Alright, I did EVERYTHING you guys said. Entered the values, entered the strings. Went to task manager, ended mom.exe then ran new task....etc....mom.exe.

Nothing changed. Still no MLAA option listed in the 3D settings in CC. Agh, I've spent too much time on this. Thanks for everyone who tried to help but this really is a lost cause.
