how to get rid of jagged edges

chirufan1 · Apr 22, 2014

im playing battlefield 3 and and every thing is turned to ultra but im not able to get rid of jagged edges on wires etc
i mean all the antialising features are ultra but this problem persists.any solution
(settings in nvidia control panel and the game are in sync)

what resolution are you playing at? what size monitor?

if you're using an older monitor, laptop, or older 720p hdtv, like a 1366x768 and sitting 12 inches away from it, that might be as good as it gets!

It's probably image aliasing. Either turn on aa post (aka fxaa) or go into nvidia control panel, there is an option for aa transparency (trmsaa and trssaa). If it's not that, you should post a screenshot.

nvidia control panel says fxaa is not supported for this application and is greyed out(disabled) and fxaa is on in global settings.
but aa post option is available in the game and i turned it to high

aa transparency is 8x

You need to post a screenshot so I know what you're talking about then.

I mean of the jagged edges.

ok this shit is happening to all the games. bioshock infinite when i played earlier was good but i opened the game again to test it and there is no anti aliasing in it now.the anti aliasing setting in the nvidia control panel is greyed out both in global settings and in program settings in every game

Reset ncp settings.

chirufan1 · Apr 27, 2014

reset ncp settings,the problem persists.im thinkink about uninstalling and reinstalling nvidia software.how does one do that

k1114 · Apr 27, 2014

Control panel > programs and features. When you reinstall make sure you select clean install so it deletes any previous settings. You may also want to use driver sweeper before reinstalling.

reinstalled the whole nvidia suite no solution.damn ittttttttttttttttttt!

here is a video of my battlefield 3 gameplay

i dont know how much you see(the no AA effect),but its pretty bad

k1114 · May 4, 2014

Youtube lowers the quality too much. It's why I wanted a screenshot.

chirufan1 · May 4, 2014

hmm can you attach files in this forum.i tried to insert them in google docs its saying file too big.how do people generally do this

RanriZedd · May 4, 2014

Fxaa is the worst AA you can have. it pretty much blurs the edges. use multisampling or supersampling instead.

k1114 · May 4, 2014

Just use this. http://postimage.org/

The thin wires is what I thought what you were talking about. But those aren't jaggies, that's just aa ugliness since aa post just blurs everything making the thin objects disappear. Try turning off aa post.

chirufan1 · May 6, 2014

this is without AA post
http://postimg.org/image/8xw0xuakp/ .this is with 4 x msaa

http://postimg.org/image/v3los7xr7/.this is with 16 x csaa

i can see jaggies even in youtube videos

smeezekitty · May 6, 2014

Judging by the image size, it would seem that you are playing in 1600x900. Truth be told, there is a limit on how
much can be done at that resolution

k1114 · May 6, 2014

But the pic is still appears jaggy in areas like there is no aa on. Zooming in and I can see it's not aaing in some areas. Some post processing could be interfering. You don't have any color or graphics settings in ncp that are overriding? Any other software that could interfere?

chirufan1 · May 7, 2014

not that i know off
what might interfere,i could check

and yes no AA no matter what I do!!!!!

chirufan1 · May 8, 2014

But this is strange,whenever i turn up the AA settings either in ncp in some instances or in games the AA quality is increasing,not by a lot but increasing.So that must mean the graphic drivers and the games are not at fault.So is the OS(win 7 home basic) the culprit here.Is it direct x .Will reinstalling the OS solve anything.

I personally think that's how good it's going to get. the jagged edges you're seeing is because the line can only be so thin at a given resolution. If you have a 1440p or 4K monitor then it's another thing. But the fence, gun, smoke, plane and other things do look pretty nice.
