It would be great to added the new MLAA technique in the future. In short, MLAA is a shape-based anti-aliasing method that uses post processing filters to reduce aliasing. Like the SSAO, MLAA can be hand-coded in a 3D app or added in graphics drivers. What are the advantages of MLAA over MSAA?
* For similar quality, it is considerably faster, one order of magnitude in the PC case.
* For consoles, where the MSAA sample count is limited due to hardware restrictions, it allows better quality.
* It enables the usage of anti-aliasing in conjunction with Multiple Render Targets, which is specially useful for deferred engines.
* It can provide better quality when HDR is used, as anti-aliasing is performed after tone mapping.
* Anti-aliasing quality can be dynamically adjusted on the fly, depending on the available resources at each frame.
* MLAA is not incompatible with MSAA: this leads to hybrid MSAA-MLAA approaches.
Here is the MLAA in action: [video:youtube] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8UG7g8NRcw[/video]  Some helpful links: http://www.realtimerendering.com/blog/morphological-antialiasing/http://www.iryokufx.com/mlaa/index.html

Well it's going to be a graphics cards provided feature anyway It´s simply a pp-effect, the type(nVidia/AMD/whateva) of graphics card running on is irrelevant.

it's not as good as MSAA but if it's 11x faster as they said... why not.

It´s simply a pp-effect, the type(nVidia/AMD/whateva) of graphics card running on is irrelevant. Sure but checking if there's a simple way to tell the graphic card's driver to add it in would be less work than rewriting it all over again. I mean in my opinion it's not like 3DGS should give its dev time away so easily when there might be such a solution...

for using also PP shaders you can use the FSAA plugin in resources
3D Gamestudio A8 Pro
AMD FX 8350 4.00 Ghz
16GB RAM
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 960 4GB
