Sorry Sober, are you saying it goes like this on the slider.

0 / 2x / 4x / 16x ???

Actually it's 0/2x/4x/8x/etc.

That 1x in the config file is for compatibility purposes only, since it's a valid input for the graphics card.

Oh dear, im not convinced on this,

Lets take this from the top.
The AA slider has five settings from 0. Going by what your saying that makes it 0-2x-4x-8x-16x-32x AA, and unless someone can convince me otherwise, i refuse to accept that a game that does'nt even supply AF settings is offering 32xAA.

An amount i've never seen in any game in over 20yrs of playing them!

Then I'll have to look closer into it, i'll let you know.

BTW, some of the newer GPUs offer 32x AA + the game doesn't supply AF settings, but it's enabled by default

I realise that modern hIGH-END gRAPHICS cards have 32xAA..my GTX570 does!, but this is normaly offered as a special feature of high-end cards and requires to be fed via the drivers. For a game to offer this is unheard off by me!

As for the lack of AF option, i've heard that it is enabled automatically...but at what level..8xAF? / 16xAF? who knows.
