I was so annoyed when i discovered that i couldn't use Antialiasign with the new HDR capabilities (Read: Bloom) of the Trinity engine, that i set out to find how to make it work....HACK
Well there is a well known application for nvidia cards called nHancer. This app has a compatability fix that makes it work

Looks gorgeous, What is your FPS ?

Edit: Oh and yeah, please.. We need FPS: inside station, outside, in a BF fighting someone.. And your comp confiq of course thanks
I can tell you, with an 8800GTX, it will slow down a bit with 16x AA and extreme shadowing. That said, i have been fighting lagless with those settings at FFA1 with about 5 people and 25 drones there
Turn the setting in the top right of the program as seen here. AA and HDR will be working on supported cards then (note that this is probably only the 8xxx series of nvidia and up. It is said that ati cards from x1000 and up support it, but i have yet to see a work around like this to make it actually work....) _______

exactly what setting did you use under the Enhancements tab? I have SLi so I click Sli radio button then the 16x option.
What setting did you use for your setup Eraggan?

Edited by: Xoduse on 04/12/2007 23:12:08 I used nHancer with the same settings you did but I'm still not getting any AA. Is there supposed to be an AA checkbox in the Eve graphics settings? b/c I'm not getting one... ---------------------------------

Finally! Yes! Thanks to the OP.
I'm running happily on the following in-game settings:
Shadow Quality: High Cache Size: Extreme Screen 1: 1920 x 1200 (Window Mode through EVE Launcher) Screen 2: 1600 x 1200 (Window Mode through EVE Launcher)
nHancer settings:
Anti-Aliasing: 8x Multisampling with Gamma Correction & SuperTransparency. Anisotropic Filtering: 8x Anti-Aliasing Compatibility: Oblivion (AA & HDR) High Dynamic Range (HDR): Checked
This is running on a Windows Vista Ultimate x86, P4 4.41GHz, 3GB RAM & a BFG NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTX OC 768MB PCIe.
Works like a charm!

There might just be a little something for ATI-users to enable the Oblivion workaround in a similar manner as for the NVIDIA-cards:
AMD ATi Knowledge Base - 737-21960: Catalyst Beta 6.9 for Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion - aka The Chuck Patch
bit-tech.net - ATI delivers AA+HDR for Oblivion
Just Google away, there are tons of info on the subject.

As far as i know this is now integrated into the regular catalyst drivers.
Forcing AA through the catalyst panel doesn't seem to do the trick though. After comparing full AA without HDR and HDR with full AA it looks to me like the AA gets disabled by turning HDR on regardless. Using Ati Tray Tools to force AA doesn't seem to make them work together either.

Edited by: TomParad0x on 05/12/2007 01:59:54 Edited by: TomParad0x on 05/12/2007 01:57:49 Can some one else with an 8800GTX check their temps while using this?
I used it when the Trinity 2 / graphics updates first got on SiSi, and I'm not 100% sure why, but with the latest beta drivers + nHancer my graphics temps went up to 94C(And wernt done rising). Now, not to say this is 100% the program (May / may not be, I don't know - thats why im asking for others to see their temps), but I find it odd my temps went up 15C+ after installing it - and went back down to normal after uninstalling it and reinstalling my graphics drivers.
(Edit: And before anyone tells me 8800 GPUs are safe at that temp - I know. It's not the temp that bothers me, its the fact it rose only after I installed that program, and didn't look to be done rising).

Well, i havn't had time to do some dumps of my settings since last post. But my machine specs are: Core 2 Duo E6600 @ 3.4 GHz OC 2GB Corsair terminator Geforce 8800GTS 640MB version
Running at 2x(1600x1200) Dual monitor. Eve running full screen on primary monitor.
Eve settings: Shadows: High Cache: extreme HDR: enabled ... doh Bloom: high (Remember that bloom is resolution dependent and not scene complexity dependent)
But i noticed when i installed the full version of trinity for TQ that i had to mess around with the settings a bit before i got it to nice AA and HDR actually working.
I'm not too fond of my fps though... i get around 30-35fps inside and outside of station, but i havnt tried it with several ships on TQ.
Will post some screens of my nhancer settings when i get home tonight.
BTW: I know of no fix for ATI...sorry

I'm confused, why do you need the nHancer program to make those changes. You can do that from the Nvidia Control Panel, under program settings. |

Maybe he doesn't know how to use ie? Maybe he wants to turn all our PCs into Bots and form his own Botnet by infecting us all by an infected nHancer Tool. Nobody knows. I hope for the first option... --- This is your Captain speaking. Thank you for flying with our spaceline. Please remain seated until the ship has completely burned out. Thank you. |

You cannot set the HDR + AA compatibility in the control panel, it's a hidden setting somehow... So until CCP contacts nVidia on the issue and have the setting defaultly applied to the eve client, this is the only work around.
Also, if you check that compatiblitity setting, check the AA setting on the enhancements tab too to activate AA. Just checking the compatibility isn't enough... _______

Look at the link in my first post in this thread. The nhancer app facilitates the option to choose the compatability setting as Sleepkevert wrote. I have no preference for nhancer...but i found that it could help me play eve at its bes...so that is why i used it

A little note on getting this to work....
(Because I could not get it to work all day)
But I think I know why =)
It needs to be pointed to 'evefile.exe' not the 'eve.exe' that it defaults too!
Or am I nuts? =p

ok another question do I turn HDR on in the game or no?
my game crashes if I try to run it in fullscreen and I'm not sure if its doing anything in windowed. But if I turn HDR on in windowed my AA definatly goes away and I think my nHancer settings are correct
