How do I turn on FSAA?

I'm running on Omega's Catalyst 3.1 package. There is no option for FSAA in the control panel for OpenGL or D3D. Looking in R3Dtweak I can see "line antialiasing" for openGL, but when I check it, it doesn't seem to change anything and performance stays the same.

Uh, well. I assume you meant in advaced properties. If all you get is the basic applets like color and acceleration tabs go download and install the ATI control panel. Then It'll work.

As for tweakers, the R3d tweaker you have to change more than just enabling line AA. Line AA doesent do anything unles you actually have AA on. It should be in the list and when you click on it there should be a slider enabled and move it to 4x or whatever you desire.

Try using radeonator ... Its much more easy to use.

There is no FSAA in the control panel, just vSync, Texture and Mipmap settings, and anisotropic filtering. There is no option in Rage3D tweak as far as I can see to "slide fsaa to on" or such. Nothing.

What video card are you using by the way? It sounds like a broken control panel. I'm not really sure though.

It is not called FSAA in R3D Tweak. The FSAA is listed under "# of Samples". That is the number of AA samples that is being taken. There should one listing for D3D and another for OGL. I hope this helps.

Thanks SmuvMonkey. I couldent remember what it was under... but I knew it was something weird. I didint want to install r3d tweak because I'm trying to keep my system as clean as possible.

Um it's SmuvMoney.

In any case, you're welcome...

I'm on a Radeon Mobility M6. I see a "# of samples" in D3D, but not OpenGL.
