+ | "Curious, with the 182.something beta driver I can force AA, but unless I messed something up it has no effect if I set in in the "application specific" section (changing it there only changes it on the 7600GS, but not the 8400GS??). Setting it globally to 4x works though for me. | ||
+ | The mess is because the background is rendered as 16 bit colour, that seems to confuse the driver somehow. | ||
+ | If you do not mind that the "review your briefing" and the menu during flight look very broken and the starts a bit different, this is fixable as well. | ||
+ | To quote my post from xwaupgrade: | ||
+ | Assuming you are ready to run code from some random guy on the internet (i.e. me) | ||
+ | Download | ||
+ | xwahacker.exe | ||
+ | |||
+ | fixedclear.bat | ||
+ | |||
+ | Put them both in your XWA installation directory, and double-click the bat file (this applies the Z-buffer fix already quoted here). | ||
+ | you can also use these batch files to switch between the original 16-bit and 32-bit rendering mode, maybe it makes it possible to use anti-aliasing for you: | ||
+ | |||
+ | 32bitmode.bat | ||
+ | 16bitmode.bat | ||
+ | |||
+ | You can then delete (or move, or whatever) all those files again. | ||
+ | If it doesn't work I made an error and did not notice it because I was too lazy to actually test these instructions." | ||
