    will test it today with the 270.51 drivers. I'm a huge system shock 2 fan and always have it installed , but haven't tested in a while if newer drivers work with AA. will let you know by tomorrow.

    there should be no need for inspector. just adding ss2.exe to control panel and overiding AA there usually worked.

    COntrol Panel USED to work here, but no longer. Tried Inspector yesterday with one of the AA_MODES and it worked right away! Very happy as I LOVE that game and replay it often.

    Thank you again for all the help everyone!

    Weird. i just checked, and was able to use AA just with control panel after i added a profile for shock2.exe. forced 8xAA and ran the game, and it was working fine.

    thx for the confirmation. I figured he was probably forcing AA on the wrong exe since he claimed no u3 engine flags work.

    Minecraft is Java based and its .jar files. But...

    Changing Global settings like this giving this game great AA and AF somehow.
    Dont look pickaxe texture since its very low resolution. U need to try these settings to see real difference AF AA. Not a single shimmering at textures.

    Thank you, Guzz! :D

    I think that first flag was the setting I originally used but I forgot to note it down and it isn't easy to Google it these days.

    AA works in Saw but, as with some other UE3 games such as Alpha Protocol and Alien Breed, it makes some text such as for the newspaper clippings in this game invisible. At least the 0x080100C5 settings does.

    you lazy, lazy boy! :) alpha protocol is specifically mentioned in the guide because of the issue you mention, and as for SAW, the flag that Guzz recomended, is the one mentioned is the guide as the one you should always try first for u3 engine games :nerd:

    ===============================================

    Unrelated note, it seems that nvidia now included the new darksiders AA flag in the 270.51 drivers :) congrats to Guzz for finding it first. :)

    @GanjaStar - OK... OK... so I missed that one! :p

    I've fixed my own problem anyway. Knowing that 0x41 works in UE3 games and 0x45 doesn't ('cos it causes text to disappear) I set Saw's AA flag to 0x080100C1 and it works... AA plus readable text! So you can add that one to your list for the three people in the world who might still be playing the game! :D

    0x000010C1 is the setting you are talking about? with a psecial note not to use MSAA or CSAAA? Thx for the heads up because I only visit this subforum on guru3d :)

    I will add it to the OP, please correct me if I'm wrong.

    EDIT: this is curently in the OP, from my understanding of the shift 2 thread

    Need for Speed: Shift II - 0x000010C1 (SS and OGMS only)

    Yes it is 10C1 but with this only: 12xs (combined : 2x2 ss + 4xOGMS (D3D only)

    looks stunning with very little loss i FPS ...

    12xS still giving me white fires at corners, day and night.
    But 1x2 SS is perfect , no fires around corners.

    How was it set when u got the shimmering? I use 8x Combined + 1x SS Transp and still get a little shimmering in P. Reality (windows/cockpit gauges etc..).

    Did you have SSTAA enabled at all before changing it to 8xSS?

    BTW anyone know if AA+ HDR works in Fallout NV?
