Well anti aliasing can detect these edges and smooth them out using a quick scan of them. If the higher the number the more edges it can scan at once. It slows the game down though so if you want to improve your game performance always lower it or turn it off. Sonovabich 1

Mmm i might give it a go just to see what happens, if it fails i can just switch it off, how high or low should i set it?

AA is high up on my list of things that make the game look good. Sonovabich 1 Awards
