low res anti aliasing?
where's the POLL
This topic was started by cartman329,
can someone take a screenshot from any of today's games, with the LOWEST screen resolution, the HIGHEST antialiasing and quality?
im just wondering how it looks like, cause i can't do it myself (gf2mx200).

after some mucking around and side tracking
i got some screenies of some Anti- Aliasing for you
colin mcrae rally 3 demo
i used this because generals wasn't a very good example
1024x768 no AA
1024x768 6x AA
1280x1024 no AA
1280x1024 6x AA
damn that looks good.... lol might have to use anti-aliasing more often :lol:

You want High AA and Low res?
these are took on a Geforce 4 ti 4400 with 12x Anti Aliasing enabled
you will need a 3rd party utilty to use AA above 4xs on a Geforce 4.
First
AA running grandia II, a Pc port of an PSX2 game that has a huge prob with jaggies
640*480 12x AA
Next No AA 640*480
See the diff, and this is just at 640*480@32bpp 12x Runs well up until 1024*768, and still on older games usable till 1280*1024.

not sure but i do think ATI is limited to 6x, its totaly unoffical support for nvidia cards anyway, but it works. 12x AA is a good reason Vcards need more then 128mb of vram, check out this 3dmark score, bout killed my geforce 4 for it

yeh the highest i could go with that colin mcrae was 6x.....
heres 3dmark 2k1 scores for the geforce 4 ti 4400
12x AA 8x ani 640*480 16bit
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=6615317
belive it or not at with 12x aa with ani disabled theres only like a 200point diff same goes for 1024*768 32bpp
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=6615349
very poor scores, but the gf4 really wasn't meant to do anything but 2x with anyreal speed anyhow.

or maybe consider my next upgrade :D

12x ?
You sure?
The maximum is achieved by ATi cards (6x), and Nvidia FX cards (8x - although its badly done)

yes all the geforce 3/4/fx family can use AA up to 12x, and all the ancient OGSS modes can also be forced to be used to, you jus need to do some reg tweaks or use a thrid party utility like riva tuner. that screen shot of grandia at 640*480 is 12x AA its insanely effecitive jaggies are almost gone even at sutch a low res.
area51.... to take a screenshot I just press the print screen button, and then alt-tab out of the game into photoshop or the like and paste..... i haven't been bothered getting any special screeny program
A good program is Fraps. Instead of using print screen you can take more than one picture now :P
