?

Agree the boxed campaign is crap, but donwload some of the campaigns or single mission packs from airwarfare.com. Eg JG26 is a good one.

I am just playing through the Sealion campaigns by Heinkill and they awesome.

I didn't come across right, I was trying to find out if you use the same as me for the screenies....also check your Steam settings for screens.

Here we go As can be seen, the only thing that fails is the radio wires as the render engine does not give the whole wire to AA

Works like a charm.
I was amazed at how the radar towers at dover now look.
Also have the WRC 2010 but with British roundel.
I dont seem to take a hit in FPS.
An othere nice thing is that the shimmering of the trees is now gone.
The shadows are still doing a dance tho.
I was using these settings on the older drivers also and that was already better than what the game itself was providing.
So nice update from Nvidia, hope this will be renderd obsolete with the comming patch, that as I strongly believe will be done in two weeks, besure

Recently had to do a fresh W7 install and just got CLoD setup again. This is when I found out the earlier FSAA work around is no longer avialable so gave the 301.24 Nvidia driver a try - works like a charm even with just FSAA enabled with my GTX 570.

Just to mention, I also found out with FSAA left enabled in the Nvidia CP the Windows Live Mail email folder text listings (Inbox, Sent, Deleted, etc.) is blurred and faint. Didn't relate the two until I read the comment about blurred in-game text with FSAA enabled.

Also, the 301.24 FSAA works with Borderlands to my surprise. Heck of a difference.

Steam, my graphics card software, fraps, the in game screenshot feature (if i remap it from printscreen key) all take screenshots without the AA rendered.

The printscreen key appears to be doing something, you get the mini freeze associated with a screenshot, but no screenshot saved anywhere.

They don't get saved to disk for me either, but they are in the copy buffer so when starting an image processing software I can paste the latest captured image into that...

First off, when you press the printscreen key in any game, program or even just on your desktop, a screenshot is taken and stored in your PC's memory. You can't see this screenshot until you open a graphics/paint program and paste it in (ctrl+V). Here's how it works:

1. Press printscreen
2. Open Windows own Paint application, every Windows version has it since forever.
3. Press Ctrl+V and save the file in whichever format you like

Also, you can only have one screenshot taken by printscreen at a time, everytime you press printscreen a new shot is taken and the one before it is deleted. That's why I like to use Steams own built in screenshot function, just press F12 and it creates a .jpg file for your screenshot and you can take as many as you like without having to do the above mentioned stone-age procedure. You can also upload your Steam screenies to your very own Steam screenshot gallery and share it with friends, that's what I do. Phew!

OK, after you have pressed the button "print screen" in the game (the default for screen shot), start Microsoft Paint (under "Accessories" in the "Programs menu"). Then select "New" and then press "CTRL+V" or "Paste" from the menu.

EDIT: You beat me to it addman
