How do I make AC do anti-aliasing?

Return to Frequently Asked Questions

Asheron's Call does not allow you to adjust anti-aliasing in game, though they may add this ability in the future. This does not mean you cannot run AC anti-aliased though. You will need to force antialiasing using the settings controls of your particular graphics card. If you have just the driver installed, you may need to download additional software from your card maker or from ATI or Nvidia.

Exactly how you force antialiasing will depend the card you have and the driver version/manufacturer software you have installed. Some examples:

• Open Display in your Control Panel (or right click on the desktop and select Display). Click the settings tab, then the Advanced button and there may be a tab for your graphics card. Look for the antialias settings, especially look for a setting to force or override the game defaults (how this is worded varies widely, such as Use custom settings, Force antialias, Use applications settings, etc). The bottom line is you don't want AC to handle this because it will default to not using any antialiasing.
• Double click the graphics card icon in your system tray and same as above.
• Look in your start menu for your graphics card programs (can be named a variety of things, from the name of the manufacturer to the name of the software suite, such as Catalyst for ATI).
