I’ve found that by having one of the SMAA settings in SweetFX set to maximum; it made antiliasing actions and pictures in the game much smoother.

#define SMAA_MAX_SEARCH_STEPS 98 // [0 to 98] Determines the radius SMAA will search for aliased edges.

I think GW2 could really use SMAA to optimize their graphics. The game with SMAA looks very very nice… much more “clean” and soft in texture.

Check out a mid-resolution screenshot I took (by pressing Windows-Print Screen).

EDIT: I’ll post something in high res later…. this Window screen-shot is a bit too dim and low res.

The first image is very grainy. You need to change some settings.

Actually, it doesn’t really improve the graphics by much with SMAA set to 98. It just smooths out the ridged edge in the graphics and also smooths out the rendering for my GTX260. Now when I turning my camera – its a very nice transition. Feel free to try putting that setting at 98 (max) and let me know if there’s any difference.

I have been trying to find the thread that people have been posting screens & setting for it but I’m not having luck. Would you happen to have the link to it? (I found it the other day by mistake, I just wish I saved the link )
I’m sure its here on official forums, but maybe it was on Guru. /shrug

I just run with AA off but with Supersampling, that way it edges don’t look jagged.
