How do I enable AA in Splinter Cell CT?

SFOSOK · Oct 19, 2005, 09:30 PM

I was wondering if it is even possible to enable AA in this game because no matter what I do it says disabled. It's profile in the Nvidia display panel is also locked, so is it impossible for me to enable AA on this game with this card?

Any links to forums or anythign that may help me is much appriciated. I just want AA in my game because without it all the great textures are really straining to the eyes.

Thyanks guys.

i know with my set up if its on shader 1.1 i can enable it, if i switch to shader 2.0 it gets blacked out, im assuming yer runnin it with shader 3.0, i dont have any experiace with that but the case may be the same as with 2.0 (not compatible, i believe because of the extravagant lighting)

yeah, if HDR is on then I can't have AA. It doesn't make sense though because DOD:S has HDR and I can use 8xS aa on it fine.

DoD:S has some kind of custom HDR though, so that could be why you can use it in DoD and not in Splinter Cell.

yes, in splinter cell, and just about any other game on nvidia hardware, you cant do AA and HDR at the same time

SFOSOK · Oct 20, 2005, 07:10 AM

Cept DOD:S, so it would seem like people should adopt DOD:S HDR to apeal to Nvidia people who want AA and HDR.

Other than your AA problem, how do you like the game so far?

SFOSOK · Oct 20, 2005, 07:18 AM

Its sooo pretty, I've already beaten the game 10 times when I had it before but I'm glad I got it. Only thing is there is like no more people playing Co-op : (

I've been so involved with Morrowind -- and other matters -- that I haven't started up SC:CT in a couple of weeks now. Maybe we can plan on a CoOP session some time soon.

Anyone else in favor of it?

i still play single player from time to time in an effort to see how well i can score on the expert setting

92% on the first level on expert is my best

Hmm, if I remember correctly, DOD:Source doesn't actually have HDR but rather an emulation of it. But yeah, for Splinter Cell, you'll have to turn of Pixelshader 2.0 to enable anti-aliasing.

And I've never even played co-op yet, and never finished the game. I always end up formatting my rig and forgetting to backup my save games. Shame on me..

I still play SCCT on a dayly basis, and Coop NEVER work for me. I'm always on Versus. If any of you want to play, you can XFire me (cheesethief is my name).
