Started Dishonored..Terrible Anti Aliasing

[DoYouEvenModBro]

Has anyone had any success forcing Anti Aliasing through CCC (AMD/ATI)? It doesn't seem to do anything on 4xSSAAeq and the in-game mlaa/fxaa are both terrible.

Didn't have that problem...

Did you force AA through CCC? If so, what were you settings?

Aren't MLAA and FXAA Nvidia techniques? I wouldn't be if they don't work that well on AMD. Personally I think it looked good at 1366x768, but when I plugged into the tv and played at 1080p I could kinda tell that it needed a x2,x4,x8 ... type option for the AA.

 

I really enjoyed the game though so that makes up for the low res textures. If you also got the DLC then you will really like the two story driven add-ons.

 

Also, try the Skyrim mod, Gifts of the Outsider, to get your Dishonored spells.

I don't have a ATI GFX, but my ingame AA was sufficient. Maybe I'm not that susceptible to Aliasing anymore.

I think I've gotten used to it. I'm "forcing" 4xSSAAeq through CCC. I honestly can't tell if it's working (so probably not). I'm combining that with the in-game FXAA and it's honestly okay. Edges are fine. It's just fences and thin objects that aren't getting smoothed but after about 4 hours of gameplay, I'm used to it. This is a great game. Basically looks and plays like Bioshock - Infinite.

Fences etc require transparency AA most likely.

I'll give that a try too. I thought SSAA was the best though....I thought Transparency AA was a mixture between SSAA and MSAA, designed to give better performance than SSAA. Shouldn't SSAA do a better job? 

[Aiyen]

Transparency AA is AA done on textures with transparency enabled.... like fences. At least I do not know of any game that would render a fence like a mesh... just a waste of polygons.

 

It is different from the others, in that the AA is done on the actual texture instead of the model. But this also means it cost quite a bit more if you have more transparent textured in a scene.

In terms of performance, SSAA still costs more than Transparency AA, right?

Depends on the scene.. your can try it in skyrim... go to riften and enable ENB´s transparency AA... go to say... dawnstars coast, and then enable it... very different FPS hits. The amount of foliage matters. The more transparent textures the harder the hit.

[DoYouEvenModBro]

Well I don't think I need to worry about performance hits in Dishonored, haha. It's not very hardware intensive.

You can also try enabling SMAA through RadeonPro. Maybe that helps. I would stick to one AA method though.

At what resolution are you playing? As that has a big impact on the amount of aliasing you get.

[DoYouEvenModBro]

Just at 1080p.

Aiyen, the adaptive AA (aka transparency AA) did the trick. Looks much better. Thanks for the suggestion mate
