AA@8x Trouble? Look no further!

[Fingulfin]

For some weird reason 2142 doesn't like to let people set their AA to 8x... Some people force it through the NVidia Control Panel, however I found a way for it to display 8x in-game.

Navigate to your "My Documents" folder. In there is a folder called "Battlefield 2142", and inside of that are several sub-folders. Open up "Profiles". Now find out which profile folder is yours (dang that sounds vague...) Pretty much, just open one of the numbered files (For example: "0001") and then open up the "Profile.con" file with notepad (Right Click --> Open With --> Notepad OR choose program from list). If it has your soldier name, then you are good to go! Close Profile.con, and open up "Video.con" with notepad. Look for

VideoSettings.setAntialiasing 4Samples

and change it to

VideoSettings.setAntialiasing 8Samples

Enjoy your game with your clear and crisp 8x AA!

Tried it last night with 16x, no different from 4x. Changed to 8x and noticed a difference.

Honestly, it doesn't make a HUGE difference... But it does improve it some

I just wish all the graphics could be improved in this way. But it seems AA is the only one changable without screwing things up. :p

Anyone getting any significant drops in FPS?

[Fingulfin]

Re: AA@8x Trouble? Look no further!

No... I drop maybe 10-15 FPS, but seeing as I still average around 80 FPS on most maps its no big deal.

Nope, none at all. Still at 100 the entire time.
