You know, the ironic thing is that this "Hollywood-filter" is most likely the reason SH4 won't support FSAA! And many people (myself included) would turn it off immediately.
Typically, a simulation is trying to re-create a sense of reality...people's eyes don't behave the way a camera does. Jaggiesoft would have you believe that in the 1940's, people saw things in black and white.
This whole "hollywood cinematic experience" thing that Jaggiesoft's marketing dept has been flogging around the Internet is...never mind. |
They don't have FSAA because Nvidia cards don't support HDR and FSAA at the same time. Presumably they were sponsored by Nvidia. You don't have to like it, but in big budget gaming publishers need all the money they can get. |
That's incorrect.
It doesn't work with ATI cards either. It's an engine limitation, not a videocard one. Also, the new Nvidia cards are supposed to support both at the same time (8800 series).
You need to go read the FSAA thread. Lot of good information in there.

Yes, Ark is correct. More specifically, certain kinds of post-processing techniques require that the framebuffer be handled in a certain way and this causes anti-aliasing to not work. This is a heavily watered down explanation but it basically boils down to a design decision that was made by some genius who was involved in the engine design used in many of Ubisoft's games including GRAW, R6: Vegas, and now SH4.
Make no mistake about it...this was a simple choice that Ubisoft has made very thoughfully and deliberately.
