Guild Wars 2

Not sure if this is posted in the right section, but I’ll give it a go.

Could you please improve the AA? I find myself turning that option off because it seems it blur out every single texture. Without AA you have nice, clean and crisp textures but with it the textures are blurry and the edges are smooth. Seems like an aged solution taken from older games and very cheap as well.

Driver-forced AA is always the answer.

You may just disable fxaa in the game and enable any other AA method you like in your graphic drivers control panel.

How exactly? I got a new graphics card recently, it isn’t anything special but the control panel is called AMD Vision Engine Control Panel.

My bf, he can play on ultra settings with no problem and he complains about the same issue. I don’t think that is something that can be changed manually. Anet needs to improve it, but if you can enlighten me, I’m listening

The blur is because of the type of AA used- FXAA is a post-process effect applied to the entire screen at once. This makes it much less hardware-intensive, but gives the blur effect.

Disable your in-game AA, then open your video driver. For ATI it’ll be called Catalyst Control Center. I dunno what Nvidia’s is called. Then you want to go down to 3D Application Setttings, uncheck the “use application settings” box, and set to your hearts delight. I recommend Multi-Sample, Edge-detect for most systems (your mileage may vary). Before closing the CCC, make sure you save an application profile so it automatically uses those settings every time you start Guild Wars.
