External Antialiasing for SH5

[fitzcarraldo]

Hello all:

I have a question about the antialiasing commanded from an external application - in my case, Nvidia Inspector:

How can I eliminate the in-game AA? I have a setting in Inspector, but SH5 ever take the in-game AA. Whatever value I set in Inspector, SH5 take the in-game AA and my FPS are very low (in default config, no mods). This is the main problem because I don´t use SH5 regularly.

Many thanks in advance.

I'm using Nvidia Inspector with some success for SH5 (as well for SH4 BTW) but you have to set override any application setting for it to work.
Enhance application doesn't make changes...

AA set X32 and AF set X16 satisfied me.
I deactivated any AA transparency (i had X2 SSGSA) because it kind of blurred horizon.
But all depending on your PC performance, of course

I use Inspector AA with SH3 and SH4 without problems. But in SH5, I set override any application setting and SH5 remains controlling the AA. Also I have AAx32, but in game, it seems a x4.

Best regards.

So, sorry, can't help you more...
I'm currently very satisfied with SH5 AA and graphical parts on my rig (excepted some little artifacts Nvidia related unsolvable) assuming i'm kind of very sensible to games eye candy

Out of interest, what Nvidia Drivers are you using?

I have exactly the same issue as fitzcarraldo.

NVControl Panel AND Inspector will not apply any settings to SH5. (even something simple like VSync won't apply)

My personal setup:
Uplay digital SH5 patched to 1.2
GTX 670
Driver 314.22

I have tested EVERY WHQL driver set that supports my card, some 7 in total going back to May 2012. None of them will force settings to SH5.

Unless I can fix this, this bug ridden POS game is going back to gathering dust.

I have one last thing to attempt. Take Uplay out of the equation, I am quite prepared to believe that NV can't detect the SH5.exe application when it's launched by a third party app. As daft as that sounds.

Exactly the same problem: impossible to me the setting of AA from Inspector. And I can´t play SH5...
