Now go back in the cockpit and take a flight around your favorite city and notice how the buildings seem to swim or shimmer as the scene moves before you.Now, before you exit the sim go into the hardware settings tab and make sure that AA is >not< selected but also make sure trilinear filtering is checked on, OK? good. Now exit the sim and go into your windows display settings tab (right clip on desktop, click properties/settings/advanced/GF4TI/performance and quality tab and go all the way over to the right with the Antialiasing slider, that should be 4xs, also you should turn on 4xAF (anisotropic filter) now under the performqnce and "Q" tab you should see a Direct3D tab, go in and make sure you jave "best quality" set for image quality. Apply all of your changes and exit. now fire up FS and take a look at the results. PLease report back so we can make sure you got it running with AA correctly.Also note: please make sure you are running in full screen mode.
