    Hi, I hope you may help me with the following. While I find RF2 a great sim (my favourite), the Anti-aliasing is often terrible, particulary the white track lines. I have a good GPU (Geforce RTX 2700) and run high/ultra settings on a ultrawide 49 inch at 1080hd, but still various things/lines are jaggy. What graphic settings do you run and did you change anything in the Nvdia settings/control panel to improve Anti-aliasing? I found some older threads, but these are pretty old and I am not sure if the tips are still applicable. Thank you very much in advance for your advice!

    I don't know if reshade works with AA, have you tried it?

    What setting are you using? MSAA level? Also use FXAA with it I guess. If you want a bit more sharpness that FXAA takes away also use Nvidia sharpness in the Control Panel.

    @atomed @Nieubermesch Thank you for the kind responses. What do you mean with reshade? Should I use that, does it provide good anti-aliasing?

    I am using MSAA 8x, in the past there were other settings available, different levels (see info below). But nowadays I can only select 9x multisampling as the best option. Do you people recognize this as well? FXAA improves things a bit but introduces blur indeed, i am not sure what i like/dislike best. What settings do you use in the nvidia control panel to offset FXAA on? I wonder what other people are using. I am using a 49 inch samsung HD monitor (1080 resolution), maybe that messes up the ant-aliasing of the white track lines. But in the past I don't recall having this problem with RF2.

    3.4.4 Anti Aliasing
    Sets the anti aliasing mode. It is in levels meaning accordingly:
    Level 1 = 2x [2x Multisampling]
    Level 2 = 2xQ [2x Quincunx (blurred)]
    Level 3 = 4x [4x Multisampling]
    Level 4 = 8x [8x CSAA (4 color + 4 cv samples)]
    Level 5 = 16x [16x CSAA (4 color + 12 cv samples)]
    Level 6 = 8xQ [8x Multisampling]
    Level 7 = 16xQ [16x CSAA (8 color + 8 cv samples)]
    Level 8 = 32x [32x CSAA (8 color + 24 cv samples)]

    I read somewhere to try deactivating all AA ingame settings and to activate them in the nvidia control panel and override application settings. I experienced a smoother driving and a FPS improvement, it's worth trying.
