FXAA V TAA in TSW 2020

Post by Nigel H-J »

Never been too happy with the graphics in TSW 2020 as when travelling along the overhead lines and tree foliage always appear to be shimmering as you approach them and also the rail-lines but going into the graphics in-game settings I went to AntiAliasing, my preference when first setting up the sim was to enable FXAA but this time I decided to try TAA.

Oh boy, what a difference this has made, no more shimmering at all, only wish I had tried TAA out at the very beginning as it has made a huge difference and travelling along the lines in the cab it really makes it better.

Found this to be extremely helpful regarding graphic settings although from last year.

Hi Nigel

Definitely less shimmering along the rails with TAA selected. I didn't see much change on trees or overhead lines but those elements are not at max on my system. Even so it's worth the change and will be my setting from now on.

Good to hear that, pleased to know it worked for you. Just for your information I'm running mine at 2880 X 1620 which appears to give a slight improvement on the graphics.
