MFAA and P3D - works great in the new drivers

[fakeflyer737 992]

Tested and, imho, MFAA not work with P3D.

 

GTX980.

That's what i thought mfaa has never worked with p3d only msaa in the UI and SGSS with NVI. Maybe Rob anscough can chime in. He knows more about this kinda thing than God himself

Ron, it's actually applied to P3D for a while (MFAA works beyond the applications on the official whitelist). You could tell it was working because jaggies and shimmering would drop, but there we very visible z buffer artifacts when looking through semi transparent objects.

 

One thing to note is that it doesn't work on SLI though (for any application)...

Anyone try it with FSX yet?

Thanks for the tip I will give this a try sometime during the weekend.

To be honest I was skeptical about MFAA working with Prepar3d.

 

But it works (yellow : FPS)

Nice Rock - interesting did it help with overall smoothness in sim also ?

Where is the MFAA setting....is it in NVI or Nvidia Control Panel?

OK, are you running 4XSGSS or 2X and what card are you using, Im on the 980TI Strix from Asus...with my 970 I couldnt get anywhere near 4XSGSS in the clouds.

Yup - right in the Nvidia Control panel under 3D settings.

Rich, thank you, question though...is there a reason why you dont use 8XMASS in the Sim instead of 4X?

sorry I meant 8XMSAA in the P3D UI. Is there a reason why you use 4MSAA...I use 8X but I don't know why I just assumed higher was better.

Not much of a difference so I use the lesser for obvious reasons   :wink: I always match Ansiotropic with MSAA in P3D menu - 4x and 4x which matches NI settings 4x SGSS and you should try that if you are not
