    Forcing FSAA for ATI card in Frontlines?

    I recently switched from Nvidia to ATI, and am wondering about how to setup game-specific settings. In the Nvidia control panel, you can assign 'profiles' to games and force full screen anti-aliasing that way. Is there a way to do that using the ATI Catalyst Control Center? I don't see anything, but maybe I'm missing something?

    for NVidia cards

    In the beta this procedure worked for forcing AA on for NVidia cards

    click start
    click control panel
    click appearance & themes
    click nvidia control panel
    you should now get something very similar to the pick below
    Find FFoW in the list of programs to override
    select the five settings to over-ride as in the picture below
    click apply

    In the beta FFoW was not in the list and the workaround was to click 'add' click desktop, select the FFoW desktop icon
    source is this thread

    for ATI cards

    best info i could find is 'ATI will support AA in Unreal 3 games with the upcoming Catalyst 8.3' this statement was from non-ATI employee and non-kaos employee, ie a gamer like you or me. He could well be right though

    from this post in this thread

    I used the bioshock.exe trick, worked just fine for me.


    Rename your FFOW.exe to bioshock.exe, and then add that in your nvidia control panel, and force aa. AF has never been to big of a issue for me, as it just blurs the textures once you get to far away, I don't mind it at all, AA however, just makes the image very clean.

    AF has very little affect on your fps though, so at least 8x is very doable and you might as well.

    Actually, I'm not sure if its this patch or not, but bioshock.exe trick does not seem to work now.

    FFoW AntiAliasing support for ATI cards - Catalyst 8.3 Released

    This release of Catalyst™ introduces anti-aliasing support for all Unreal Engine 3.0 based games (running in DirectX 9 mode). Users can enable Anti-Aliasing for titles such as Gears of War and Unreal Tournament 3 by simply enabling Anti-Aliasing within the ATI Catalyst™ Control Center.

    This release of Catalyst™ allows users to enable narrow tent and wide tent Anti-Aliasing custom filters while running in the CrossFire™ Super Anti-Aliasing modes, (for DirectX9 applications) providing an improved image quality experience.

    Full details here!


    When you try enabling FSAA, let us know how it goes (and post some screenies!)

    I'm not so sure it actually forced it. The AA still doesn't work in the game, not mine anyway. Anyone else try it?

    TG itself is very alive, but sadly, FFOW just didn't take off here. Follow the directions in Silver's post, and it should work I would think.
