Multisampling 1/3
Hi all, I've searched around a way to twak the multisampling issue at high resolutions (I'm 1920x1080 on a 24" 144hz monitor + a GTX 770), and I cannot set the multisampling higher then 1 on 3.

Where can I find the .ini file to tweak on Windows 7?
I've tried everything I found in all the forums, but I dunno where this file is hidden :)

Thanks for the help!

In the Assassin.ini, set Multisampling to 2 which is 3/3 I think.

Multisampling gets turned off for higher resolutions from what I've found out. Technology bac then wasn't as advanced :P They won't patch the game.

This is correct. Only thing I would add is 0=MSAA Off, 1 = MSAAx2 and 2=MSAAx4.

Sorry for the necro; but ive gone into the config and also seen 'DistanceLOD=0' the one below 'MaxNPCLODLevel=5' I'm guessing 2 or 5 will work.

Anyone else know of any config changes that you can do to make it visually better?

Edit; just found http://www.tweakguides.com/AC_8.html
Edit 2; as it says in that link for some reason the 'DistanceLOD=0' the lower the further distance can be seen. Doesn't make sense. But yh...

extra necro to update the link

The only thing that needs manually tweaking is Multisampling=2 (for 3/3), and probably set the file read only.
Everything else is already at max with ingame max settings.

Heya IchigoMait :)

Thanks for sharing this guide!

We kindly ask that you don't necro threads. I understand you were keen to help folks looking to tweak Assassin's Creed, and that's great! However, the posts in this thread are from eight years ago - systems and tech have moved on a great deal since then, so it's more or less certain that all these posts will be out of date. Best just to make a new thread :) Cheers!
