I know this was an issue on release. Reinstalled and using TF mod and it still looks very poor - I've attempted to override with Nvidia's 3D settings as well and no go.

Am I doing something wrong, or are there any work arounds/wrappers that can get the job done?

Last I heard, the way CloD was programmed FSAA just doesn't work. I'm unaware of AF limitations, but the lack of FSAA is so noticeable that I couldn't really tell. In theory, you could change that with access to the source code and enough effort, but I don't know if that will happen.

I believe you can now activate FXAA in any game using nvidia's driver panel, but I've not tried it for CloD and I have no information on whether or not it works.

When I recently reinstalled the sim, I noticed jaggies. I went into the games video option and put the ant-aliasing on 1. Figured I'd work up from there. But 1 smoothed everything out very nicely. I'm running an Asus gaming laptop with an Nvidea 860M card. Looks great and I have everything set to high.

One of the oddities in CloD is that the arial wire can't be AA'd, so it always looks at first glance that AA has not been set. But it will have

It was when I looked over my shoulder from the cockpit of the Spit that I noticed the jaggies in the tail section. Anti Aliasing on 1 smoothed them out perfectly. But yes, there is still that wire, but it doesn't bother me all that much. The jagged rudder and stabilizers definitely would have.

Yes, set AA to anything other than off in-game and turn FSAA off in the control panel smile
