Anti-aliasing should be the default when OWL detects a suitable graphics card #193

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
By default, to get nice graphics (ie reduced jagging), anti-aliasing relies on 
individual users to set up parameters with their graphics card software. OWL 
does not handle this area. This is different from e.g. Opensim and SL which by 
default provide anti-aliasing (on suitable card), ie they do not require each 
user to parameterize anti-aliasing. For a good acceptation in the enterprise 
arena, one would need OWL to work the same way, ie providing anti-aliasing by 
default unless the detected graphics configuration is low end.

Temporary workaround is for every user to reconfigure their graphics card 
software:

- NVIDIA XSRVSETTINGS -> Anti-aliasing settings -> Override App setting and put 
the quality vs perf slider to 4x or 8x, then saving the new config

- ATI CATALYST CONTROL CENTER
    Standard: select "Use personalized params"
    AA: don't use app's params, and put the quality slider to 4x
    AAmode: "Quality"
