Antialiasing help

[Valmar]

Which antialiasing is better quality and what is worse?
Options are:
FXAA3
FXAA2
FXAA1A
FXAA1B
NFAA
SSAA
DLAA


I got a relatively ok computer GFX 670, i7, just asking which are the better visuals, no idea how to rank those options from best to worse.

I'm wondering this too.

Those types of AA are similar to other post process AA techniques like FXAA. I find DLAA looks the best, but it's subjective. SSAA seems to run the fastest. I don't use any of them and use sweetfx SMAA which is just better.

Seems like SSAA would be super sampling which would run the slowest, but I didn't experience any FPS change with it on or off.

[Stratigamo]

SSAA in the unity engine is NOT super sampling. I wish it was, but the engine doesn't seem to like non post process AA. I haven't tried forcing MSAA in the control panel, i'm not sure it would work.

SSAA = screen space aa, fastest simplest local edge blur on unity.

Thanks for the link, nice help out there.
But still cant understand if FXAA3 or DLAA is better. Technicalescriptions are great but for people like me which dunno about that its just better to know which one to use, or to know an "order quality".

Yeah I should have expanded in the discussion, but I did mention FXAA3 is the best for Nvidia cards. Then DLAA for AMD cards.

But the best AA is downsampling yourself.

[Valmar]

Cool, thanks mate. You rock.

[Stratigamo]

It's odd games don't have super sampling as an option with a warning that it will cause slowdowns in bad rigs. I mean super sampling is the same as downsampling. Anygame can render at higher res then downscale.

NFAA is the best one, without a doubt. Walk up close to a torch or something on a building wall and test them all. NFAA is easily the smoothest looking, with DLAA close behind.

Using GTX 650 and the FXAAs are all the worst, despite being designed for Nvidia.
