N4 vs. NH graphics

I am the first one to take less eye candy to have more realism. But I now have my fairly high-end machine set at 1600 x 1200 resolution in N4 and the jaggies are still omnipresent. NH at 1200 x 1024 looks phenomenal. However, NH at low resolutions looks really bad. I haven't even tried N4 at low resolutions--I am afraid to look. Is it just the nature of the track designs and the very detailed advertising on the cars...? I would swear that GPL at 1200 looks a lot better and less aliased than N4 at 1600!! By the way, FSAA is non-functional in D3D mode on my GeForce 2 card. On or off (at any setting) it makes no visual or frame rate difference. I am using the nVIDEA 6.50 drivers.

But I can't race heat offline without punishment from the AI....Of course I can't race N4 online without similar treatment by many of the human drivers...:) dave henrie

Really? Then maybe I *don't* want N4. I had enough problem with being wiped out in Heat. I don't need worse...

I just read at the HEAT forums that the MGI team has sent the 2nd patch v1.2 to Hasbro. We'll see how long it takes them the QC it and get it out to the public. dave henrie "
