First time I started playing I configured the game as to get a constant 60 frames in the menu screen.
Thus I got to 2xAA with Wide-tent filter, 16xAF and quality adaptive AA at 1920x1200.
Only today did I find out that narrow-tent and wide-tent filters produce blurring. So I changed to box or edge-detect.
Here's edge detect vs wide tent (at 8x). Just compare the health bar and skill icons.
Putting that aside... as I was playing with the AA settings I noticed I wasn't getting any quality improvements. It seems there are areas where AA does not work and also, if I zoom out enough AA gets disabled in certain places.
Here are the screens. (taken at 4x AA I believe)
No AA in the temple entrance.
Temple stairs. Step closer, AA off.
Zoom out a little more, AA off.
The question would be... is titan quest or the catalyst drivers doing this?
I even tried disabling Catalyst AI. No change.
Now, even though the frame rate might drop under 60 frames in certain places I'll be playing at 4xAA using the box filter.
Adaptive AA really hits the performance in this game. If I disable it I can play with 60+ frames at 8xAA with edge detect (24xAA). But I won't
