trellz Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 Forgive me, but I am mostly a windoze user, I have just recently gotten Leopard running on my IP35, with an 8800 and I notice that there doesn't seem to be any support for anti-aliasing. Is there some way to force anti-aliasing on to a certain level ie, 2x 4x 8x etc. Or does the driver just not support this feature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sg Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 anti-aliasing in what? games? the game/application is responsible for enabling this. look in your game options for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draekz Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 So basically what you mean is that in OSX, the applications control those options themselves? I am a windows->leopard convert myself, and I'm still learning the ins and outs of things in this OS. Usually in Windows, the driver is accompanied with a Control Panel or something similar. Options for controlling whether the driver will control the settings, or the application will control the options itself. I do not see this level of configurability in OSX's Preferences. I would assume that in Leopard, all games will be controlling these settings on their own. In some games I find, that Anti-Aliasing settings cause graphical anomalies. For example, in Civilization 4 for Mac, when I turn on Anti-Aliasing, all the character models are transparent (do not render). I can see a small line moving where they are. In some games I've noticed the option is simply not there at all. I have a GeForce 8800GT 512MB card on a Core 2 Duo 2.53Ghz processor. It should be fairly fast+good graphics. The cider game SPORE works quite well, and the graphics are quite fast. But no options to turn on Anti-Aliasing or Anisotropic Filtering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
