Thanks a ton !! :D

ATI card here.

Can anybody else confirm this issue ?

I've noticed my client keeps activating AntiAliasing for no reason.

It's "Disabled" in the client and in the drivers settings,
but it doesn't even matter if the driver is set to "Application" or "Override".

Now, if i set the client to "Low", i actually get "Medium" ...
while on "Disabled" it's "Low".

I managed to get it deactivated once, by changing the driver settings to "override",
but when i ALT+TABbed out of the (fullscreen running) client and back into it,
AA was turned on again.


I have set interval to "two" to make it use less ressources.
Can't confirm or deny any connection to this.


This is getting pretty annoying, as i'm playing on a notebook
and it's getting really hot in connection to room temperature.
We have 30+ degree celsius around here right now...


Just asking if anybody else experiences this,
before i start seeking other possible causes for this.


Thank you.


Update:
I've managed to turn AA off by resetting the driver settings and restarting the client.
It was off for a while, but now i've opened the Map ... and it's back on again !
Yes ... opened the map, which activated AA. WTF ?





(edit: i know, i could/should have posted this in the issues forum, but i actually wanted a response...)

Also having this problem with an amd 6870

That really doesn't look like you're actually trying to help.

No program came included to my notebook, that would allow me to do this.
I can't even upgrade the frelling gfx drivers, because then i lose the Intel HD Graphics switching ...



Edit: RivaTuner, EVGA Precision ... GeForce. Mhm. How about not being so hypocritically helpful ? Thx.

Hahahahhaa xD

Well actually works very fine with ATi cards but you didn't actually understood yet ATi are crap for whatever concerns drivers or programs to make their crap run decently.

Riva tuner, again, if you don't even care to know who are Guru3D don't ask for help if you don't want any. Just buy decent hardware, problem solved.

Lucky you! I can't activate AA within CQ no matter what. Already promised myself to buy NVIDIA card next time - got troubles with AA in other games as well (WoT, Skyrim).

No one is trolling you. Both Riva and EVGA Precission can work with ATI cards. You won't get all the features, but you may be able to limit the AA manually.


Though my question is, why would it keep turning on if you set it to off in the game settings?

Referring mostly to the tone that both of them had ... but thanks for actually mentioning this.
If i knew why it did that ... then i'd probably had solved the problem already. :D



I can't check the driver now, because i've switched to the integrated intel thingy ... but i'll check later on.
I never actually upgraded ... windows must have done this itself.

I can't even use the usual catalysts, because then i lose the capability of switching between ATI and intel.
I've tried different drivers a longer while ago and then the intel didn't get recognized anymore.

You know ... notebooks drivers ... :(

I recollect an issue with the map and Flash, although not this version of Flash.

Have you turned off h/w acceleration in Flash for all web browsers (FF, IE etc) and also windows media player/centre?

Give it a try in the absence of any other suggestions.

On 4870x2 Sapphire models the only way to get back some functionality but never sure Catalys would properly pop on screen, was to completely delete manually all ATi file from your computer, reboot and then reinstall previous catalyst and drivers.
Of course this was clearly Titan work and completely impossible if your MB has not video chipset integrated and you don't know what you're doing.

Thing is, basically you should never install new ATi drivers and Catalyst if your actual Catalyst works fine, just uninstall actual driver, reboot, install new driver, reboot and chances it works are much higher.

My 4870x2 took a drive by the bureau window (for true) because of all this mess. Pick the cheapest nVidia card on market and you'll never get 1/10th the problems you get with ATi, hell even a 10 YO card nVidia you plug it and works properly with almost no effort.
