I will tell you that getting the ATI things off my computer was just a bit nuts. Once done searching files and folders everything seemed to work just find. Send us some screenshots in the screenshots forum of your new improved 3D world.

hi im registered with photobucket can you tell me how to post screenshots and i will post them

lt cmdr lare

Sign in to photo bucket. You will see at the top were you can get the pics off your computer to upload. Also, see option at the top for the size of the pic you want it displayed. Normally 800x600 is good. Click browse and find the pic you want on your computer. Click save and then upload. Once done, keep this page open on the internet. Open another page for Subsim. When you start a post or reply, at the top you see a small pick of two mountains and the sun over it. Click on that, a small window pops up for the link to your picture. Go to the page you have open at photobucket and click on "direct link" under the picture you want. It will copy automatically. Switch back to the Subsim page and paste it to the small window you just created. It takes longer to type this then actually do it :rotfl:

Send as .jpg pics. Normally SH4 saves your screenshots in .BMP form. I just open then with Windows Paint, click save as and make it a .jpg.

That worked. Do you have AA turned on?

what is AA

lt cmdr lare

AVGWarhawk · 03-12-08, 12:53 PM

Anti Alaising. I noted on your pictures jaggies as they call them. In your ATI card set up, look for AA X2 or X4. This helps clean up the jaggies. Need to fine tune that card you got!

AVGWarhawk · 03-12-08, 12:56 PM

Read this for your card set up

Lt. Cmdr.Lare, AA is anti-aliasing. It is a graphic card function which smooths out the "jagged" lines on objects. That's about as basic an explanation you can get

Oops, AVG you beat me too it. Sorry about that

When you loaded the driver a CCC(cataylist control center) should have loaded. Go to your programs list off the start button lower left hand corner. Open this progam once found on the list and look for the 3D application. This is were you will find it.

It will look like this when open:
