    The patch has finally added anti-aliasing. It's like a whole new game now. Looks great.

    Game runs smooth at 1280 resolution and all settings on high. No problems here, but load times are a little long. The game is a lot of fun...

    Only the village so far, but I have full settings at 1024x768, with shadows at the minimum (but not turned off). I get what looks like about 20-25 fps. Certainly doable.

    Question: Anti-aliasing doesn't seem to be an option. If it is, how do you turn it on? Or is it in the graphics options under a funky new name? Thanks

    Apparently that is added in the upcoming patch (you can get the beta if you want).

    Oh, you know when you look at the edge of a door, or an iron fence or something like that, the straight lines look jagged or blocky? Anti-aliasing helps smooth those out by shading the edges so it looks smoother, but a little smeared.

    EDIT: Ah! Take a look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-aliasing

    @ Sir Belly,

    Anti-aliasing smooths out the jagged pixelated edges in screen graphics. Hence, "jaggies."

    Edit: Wikipedia linky

    I thought that it could be set from the nVidia control panel in Windows advanced display options. Or is that only for certain Windows apps?

    You can set it there, but it doesn't mean the game will recognize/use those settings to any benefit. From what I understand, patch 1.03 is the first patch the will enable NWN2 to leverage the anti-aliasing capabilities of your graphics cards.
