Something I noticed regarding FSAA

Crimsonghost99 · 03-31-07, 09:26 AM

If you have read my previous post about my SH4 problems you will notice that I have tried SH4 on both XP Media Center 2005 and Vista Home Premium. I noticed that on Media Center and DX9 that I had the same fuzzy game that so many are complaining about. But when I formatted and installed Vista and DX10 I get a very sharp and VERY awesome looking game. I dont know if this has been identified before but it seems that the game prefers DX10. Just thought I would put that out there.

I'd have to agree there. I've seen the game running on XP and it seems a little harsh compared to Vista, I am running the game in 1680x1050 so it loses a little in translation there, but it still looks sweet (minus the annoying lack of FSAA - at this size, you really need it)...but then it's not _actually_ a DX10 game, so it may be the Vista placebo effect. It's using DX9, which is hidden away inside DX10...please correct me anyone if I'm wrong...
