    Hi all,
    if i check FXAA without HDR a nearly black screen is visible in race, see attached picture.
    Only if i check both, means HDR and FXAA it looks normal, but because of HDR very comic style colors.
    Any chance to use FXAA alone?
    Or have i to use special settings (FXAA is allowed in Nvidia system settings) ?
    (GPU is Nvidia GTX670 with 4GB RAM, CPU is Intel i7-3820, System RAM is 16GB)
    Thanks...

    I have the exact same problem with my GTX670 (2GB). I play with FXAA and HDR ON and change settings of the monitor itself to compensate when colors are "funny" (depends of the track) ;)

    That's what i did in the meantime too. A very uncomfortable way ...

    I remember getting that problem a few times but its been awhile since I've seen it. Seemed to occur if I was changing the HDR/AA/FXAA options in the menus rather than using the launcher. Have you tried deleting the contents of the UserData\Log\Shaders file and letting the game rebuild them?

    Hi,
    just deleted the content...helps nothing, same behaviour. FXAA as standalone doesn´t work in my case.

    I think the solution to tour problem is much more basic and stupid than you might ever think
    Press ALT+TAB to exit to desktop and do it again to get back to rf2. Tachaaaan!!!!!

    Very very funny...that trick really works!
    It helps at the moment, but the right way should be that the game starts "normal" after checking the FXAA box.
    ISI, a little bit of work for you and thanks to all:cool:

    I would say that in my case it does not crash when pressing Alt+tab in multi player. I will check in any case

    I`ve had this problem too and found that if I turned HDR or FXAA or both on or off in sim it works fine.

    When I did that through "Configure Sim" I always got the black screen.

    In older builds this used to be the opposite but with b218 it works from in sim but not in the "Configure Sim" option...

    I only get the black screen if I set both FXAA and in game AA on. Setting just either whether I do it from the 'Configure Sim' or in game works fine.

    I confirm rf2 crashes when returning from desktop when playing online. In my case i get the black screen independently if i change the sattings from the launcher or from the game
