That is not really true. AA does smooth some edges in the cockpit but not all by far.

I really hope proper implementation of AA and AF is a priority, especially for ATI users that have no real alternative except the FXAA injection. Better than nothing yes, but until the dreadful jaggies and hideous shimmering are addressed the sim will always be an ugly duckling IMO.

comapring pre patch - after patch it does. also im running 1440x900. so less AA is needed to achieve a soft effect.

As far as im concerned, im satisfied with the current AA inside te pit. but waht suits me, may not suit other people at all.

Jaggies are present at cockpit frame and around the targeting sight glass, although FXAA removes them mostly. Even if there is an AA effect, it is unnoticeable, except turning on AA in game does cause an FPS hit.

The question remains tho: how come we still do not have proper AA now that we have a new graphic engine?

As far as I know it was said some time ago, that AA will be added after the new graphics engine is working fine. So it probably will take some time.

Best regards,

I agree, I don't see any difference but i do get an FPS hit with AA on

It seems like it is working a bit better for me with an NVidia card but one of my mates is using ATI and he swears blind that when AA is set to 0 he is getting no jaggies and when he puts in on 8 the jaggies are there!

Some one else in one of the other threads also said this was the case for him. Seems to be ATI specific.
