No probs with my 8500GT and the new driver at all. Have it on 8xAA and 4xAF and everything looks dandy.

With your AF and AA set to 16x, does the sun look like a disk as in this shot.... (apologies to AVGWarhawk for hijacking his screenies

)

Or like this one below....

Also, the global setting is just that. I prefer not to force a certain level of AF/AA if I can help it. Most games I play have internal controls for adjusting this, and some require more than SH4 and some less.

Clayp,

Can I ask you to do me a favor and confirm that your sun looks like the 2nd image? I just tried it using your exact settings and I get the sun disk as in the 1st image. If you're really getting the proper glare effect with those setting I'm going to have to roll back to whatever drivers you're using!

Thanks

JD

I run a 8800gtx. I've been using the driver version that dell last released for the card (which has to be old) as I have no problems with the games I play (including crysis) and I'm always leary to change drivers unless I have an issue.

I run SH4 with 4xAA and 8xAF. To get the sun glare/halo with AA I had to turn off the AA gamma correction (which I made sh4.exe specific via the nvidia control panel). I've found that if I increase the AA further than 4x I lose the sun glare/halo.
