Title: Not a bug = Low end Nvidia Card Antialiasing
Post by: Chilli on January 27, 2012, 03:21:22 PM
I have Nvidia G210 and was wondering if anyone else found a larger drop in FPS when using enhanced mode and supersampling?  :headscratch:

The upside  :aok using the application settings, and multisampling options by Nvidia control panel and placing the antialiasing on the lowest notch in the video settings in the game, AH now runs great and even appears to be much smoother in this version.  <<< Can this be??? 

I wanted to post here in bug section, in case other Nvidia users had not checked their antialiasing settings.  When I did  :bhead at first I adjusted the beta settings by mistake, then on the second attempt I saw the differences in my settings and was pleasantly rewarded with more checked boxes, better smoothing and much better framerates as opposed to advanced features auto disabling before the changes above.

I have a GT220, and had similar problems.  I noticed a few things were set default by the control panel that weren't optimal for gaming.

Anisotropic Off
Antialiasing Off

Make sure your display mode is set for single monitor display if you're not running more than one.  I've only ever ran one, but for some reason, game was defaulted for multiple monitors.

Texture Filtering on High Performance

and be sure your VSynch is forced on.  Most monitors can't display over 60FPS, and your eye can't tell the difference.  When I first got this video card, it was hitting 220-250 FPS and getting extremely hot.  This did nothing for the game, just wasted resources on the card.

After fiddling around I was able to turn on most everything and run at a 512 Texture.  Unfortunately, it still gives 10-15FPS skips in frame rate every few seconds if I run HiRes.
