Tested this and I must say I'm amazed how good it looks. Haven't tried the "ultra" setting yet, but will definately try it later on.

This method is also completely legal, since it's nothing but a DirectX modulation. It doesn't hoax with anything in the game except the AA. (The font might become a tad grainy, but still very readable)

I'd definitely like to hear an official response on this before i try it

To me it's just logical, it's a graphic modulation. Were you banned in XI for using .Dats of a mithra's boobs? Nope.

Actually you were if you got reported after bragging (same deal about Windower), as you're tampering with game data which is against ToS (of any company, some aren't strict on it but you CAN get banned for it.)

This is why updates and file checks on POL had a habit of replacing custom .dats because they can check the hash of your dats.

Injecting anything into a game not from the company can result in bans/prosecution (depending on what it's doing) but graphical tweaks and etc companies aren't strict about.

That's like getting executed for smoking marijuana.

Ignoring the fact that's illegal in some places still as of today, I don't see what execution has to do with anything? Unless game companies have decided you can tamper with the data all you want in the past 10 years it's been a pretty big part of ToS's to not tamper with game data by injection method, especially MMORPGs -- Thus why some games have built in mod support.

Which is not legal. Like most of visual hacks in game, they are just "DirectX modulation". As soon as you start injecting anything it's not legal anymore.

Why wouldn't it be legal? It does nothing but changes the AA. For some, if not all, it's just a question of game performance. It's not like you get some kind of "OH HAI NAO U C MI, NAO U DOWNT!!".

Don't hold your breath.

According to this logic, forcing AA through the Nvidia and ATI control panels is also "illegal".
