Graphics. Does AA make a big difference?

[MiNuN]

Can someone post pictures comparing the AAs?

there would be no point.

Most games with auto attack well most games out atm don't really use motion capture on the scale used in ffxiv (or avatar).

games like WoW or ffxi the animations are artificially created.

I think it will look fine since all they will do is run the feed loop just a bit faster. All they are really doing is taking away the buttom mashing.

I don't think he's talking about Auto Attack, I think he means in the graphics settings, the 2xMSAA, 4xMSAA, ect. (forgot exactly what it stands for, I forget a lot) but you get what I mean.

Anti-Alaisaising... I can't spell it. It means "Blur it to make jaggies go away." or something.

o emmm geee...... I should realised that and its Anti Alaises. Yup I get ya THAT AA. ummm sorry can't help. Me personally I set my defaut pc setting to habe sharp pictures so when I try the different AA setting in games I don't se a difference.

For me, even AAx2 made a significant difference.

Without any AA, there are a lot of jaggies on my character, especially the arms. Just bumping it up to AAx2 made a significant difference. There's still a little bit of jaggies, but it's much better, so I'm sure that higher AA would be even better.

It would all depend on your systems performance. If you can, there's no reason not to, basically.

very different for my eyesight XD

just AAx2 or AAx4, you can see the different

[Defmetal]

of course it does.

It makes the edges smooth around 3d objects. Less jagged.

2x makes a huge difference with minor performance impact.
4x makes a decent difference, a bit higher of performance but not too bad.
8x you probably won't even notice, but it takes a lot of performance.

Pictures are hard to show it because you notice a lot of it in the motion and animations.
