ATI/AMD's new Morphological Anti-aliasing

[wolvers]

I just wish it was one which vastly improved the IQ.

That depends which way you look at it bud. For games where there is no way to force AA, or games where the performance hit with traditional AA is just too big, then it certainly improves the IQ.

I am looking at it from an AA whores point of view.

Then you'd be pleased to know that there won't be a game where you won't be able to whore it up!

A blurry 4x AA is not whoring it up. I like my image to look sharp and jaggie free. I play minimum 16xAA and most of the time 32xAA and can even go upto 64xCSAA. But I totally except I am not the norm when it comes to AA.

I also cant think of any game that I play where I cant apply or force AA?

Yes, catylist maker has already said in a later catylist releae possibly 10.11s.
there are ways to enable it unofficially though

i've done the mod and the options are in CCC but i can't see any different from no AA to MLAA. it's either not working or i'm doing something wrong.

You must be doing something wrong then cause the games i have worked, though there are a few instances where it doesnt apply to some dx 11 or dx10 games. those are specifically down to the type of AA they use ect.

when i do the mod i don't even have AA options in CCC

 

[hideki]

i had to force 4x edge AA for it to work, but it definitely does work. it works with me1 as well.

That kills my fps down to 0-5 fps.
SSAA x8 which seems to remove more of the jaggies runs at around 20-30 fps.

when i do the mod i don't even have AA options in CCC

You will need to reboot.

Well lets hope that's the reason why its not out officially on the 5xxx yet as its needs some work.

thats odd, i didnt see in fps dips when i tried it, afterburner reports 60fps and it felt like it

It works fairly well in GTAVI, didn't really notice any performance hit and does look allot better than no AA at all.

 

[hideki]

I am running ME2 @ 2560x1600 with all the options on high, I'm not sure how that would effect MLAA performance.

I had trouble getting it to work as well. I had to uninstall the whole lot and install the modded set that final8y posted eariler. It worked OK then.

there are a few instances where it doesnt apply to some dx 11 or dx10 games. those are specifically down to the type of AA they use ect.

If you read about how it's implemented, I don't think that it matters what the version of DX it is. It should work in all instances. When I tried it in the Warhead bench it didn't seem to work in DX10 although it does appear to work in BC2 DX11, which is great as the in game AA doesn't apply to all surfaces.

i did, no change...

Might need to uninstall and try again with the 10.10a+inf mods. After install the AA section will be missing in the CCC, the reboot will restore it.

Maybe people are forgetting to change from "standard" to "edge-detect"

its a great feature. Ramp up the resolution and stick this baby in. Great IQ with stunning performance.

Well done ATI / AMD!

Let's step back a bit... The idea is for MAA to work even if antialiasing is disabled (i.e. set to 'application' with no AA set in the application itself). In this case the AA sample type is ignored so setting it to edge-detect won't dictate whether or not it works. It just seems that the filter, at the moment, does not work with every title.

You still need to set it to edge detect or it doesn't work, in my own experience..

Can anybody else confirm this? I did ask this a few pages back (last night) as I was curious as to if it would make a difference. And yeah... Nice graphics cards there - you should update your signature to reflect your awesomeness .
