Same for me. Ask on the beta forum, they might know.

I use it. But i dont think it works. Worst case just force it with CCC or NVCP.

I've read that it does not work in the beta. I read in the beta forum that to get it to work u start a game then turn it on then turn it off and then on again. I tried it and didn't notice any difference but check the bet forum.

This sounds like the same thing that I had problems with in Battlefield 2. You HAD TO manually input AA in the directory files. I haven't tested this out for Crysis but since it's powered by EA you my as well say it's gonna be the same problem as it was in Battlefield 2. I'm gonna try my best to tell you what to do to correct this problem it may not be 100% accurate and 100% gonna work but I will try. Here goes:

Step 1: Go to your Crysis directory under your hard drive

Step 2: Once your in the Crysis directory you should be able to find a folder called "Game" open that folder.

Step 3: Once you opened that folder you should see a folder called "Config" open that folder then you should see as a test file called "FSAAProfiles"

Once you have done all those steps your directory should look something like this "C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Crytek\Crysis SP Demo\Game\Config"

Step 4: It should open your text file. Right click the icon for the text file and click "Open with" and select one of your word proccesors (IE: NOTEPAD, or WORKPAD, or any other word proccesors you might have.) NOTE: I recommend opening it with wordpad


Once you have it opened as a text file you should scroll down and see

FSAAProfile 'G80'
{
DeviceGroup = G80
Mode
{
Samples = 4
Quality = 2
Desc '8x'
}
Mode
{
Samples = 8
Quality = 0
Desc '8xQ'
}
Mode
{
Samples = 4
Quality = 4
Desc '16x'
}
Mode
{
Samples = 8

I dont know much about those codes but I'm sure if i messed around with it i could figure out what it all means but if you look at it. It's kind of common sense. Change it to whatever you like under Samples and Quality
