This is for Nvidia users.

First right click on the desktop. choose "Nvidia control panel"

Go to Manage 3D settings and hit "Add"

Browse to your Perfect World/Element folder and select the elementclient.exe

Make sure to turn on "Override" and set the setting to whatever you want (Note, this can really bog down the game if you set it too high)

Enjoy! (Note Perfect World must be restarted after changes)

    Also everyone should take note that not all nvidia cards (especially low-end or older ones) are capable of doing this and that you try this at your own risk :3

    Yeah, if you can't handle maximum graphics settings it's a good indication that your game will be super slow with AA.

    Do you notice jagged lines around your character and other things? Then yes, even the lowest AA gets rid of a good deal of that. If you don't notice the jaggies then you probably won't notice much of a difference.

    AAing even x1 for some still takes a large percentage of the graphics workload and you can't toggle it via the performance switch, so for those with mediumish and below ranged computers, be warned.

    You think Heartstone?

    Try running through west arch with grx on full and with that AA. If you still have at least a comfortable FPS rate, then I think that should confirm it.

    West Arch max setting, 16xQ AA..as i not even exceed 50% usage of any hardware part. then i wonder why low fps. its around 10 in west. same without AA. maybe internet lateency? i dunno lol.

    So many people it has to draw custom stuff for. I drop to 15 in west, no skipping though.
