Anisotropic filtering

[Fugana]

I want to run it at X16 but no matter what multiplier i put it never changes [in the options it says X16 but in reallyty there is no diference]  :[ pls help me, my gpu is Gigabyte HD6850 OC 1GB

Im using this setting in all other games and it works fine.

Can you post pictures? 

[Fugana]

Yes just 1-3 minet

X16:



X0:

 

There are 4-5 draw line prety close to each other firt is near the Galatine handle 2nd slight above my aim : \ 
is there away to increase its draw distance cus its very anoyng in some maps : [ i tryed forcing it trough the driver noting changes

Ah yep. I just checked myself. Seems there is an issue with the way Warframe handles AF.

I can see Trilinear in effect, and then with AF16x i can see it applied to select surfaces... the floor not being one of them.

Good news at least is i ran that very same GPU a while back. Just force AF through the drivers, using CCC - Or is it crimson now?  

If you want to create a thread in the performance bug section, i can add my screenshots in too.

It will be nice to start a threat so devs can see it, yes i tryed forcing trough my crimson driver nothing canged at all : \ and far i know Steve is working on some new antialising filter and its in the options now but oh god when i choose it the game get blured and my eyes start burning .. its is as a Prevew mod so hope this draw issues gona be solved soon : \

Even at such a short distance I can tell AF is working. There is a clear difference in the pictures. Look further away at the floor at 0 and 16 and I think you should be able to see it very clearly.

I actually really like the new AA option. It addresses a lot of issues the old SMAA technique had. Especially in motion.

But, the AA option in Warframe all happen after the render process, so they shouldn't be the reasons for the borked AF. What is more likely is that not all surfaces are being targeted for filtering - Performance saving feature since not all surface need to have samples taken from them.

It's not. AF is not targeting all surfaces. Should ask to get this moved to the bug section. I'll post my pics to this thread now.

at this angle and distance even 0 AF would work. I think its working like intended, but too lazy to go in game to show it to you.

Yes i just noticed it AF really dont target every survace for example see the corpus writhing at X16 they are clear and vsible but at X0 you cant see what is writen 
so yes AF dont target all surfaces.

Compare my driver forced AF to the implementation in Warframe:

AF off, Trilinear on:

16x AF:

16x AF through drivers:

As i said, it looks like the game engine is excluding some surfaces from taking samples, as you can see in my second pic. It takes samples from the roof, but not the floor.

Have you check your graphics control center? It may have a force setting that's forcing it to use the GPU Control Center settings over game settings.

yes i tryed but i dont know should i turn AF OFF ingame and then X16 in the driver options? 

[MillbrookWest]

OP, request this thread be moved to the performance section.

I think that is the proper section for display issues - Or wonky display settings at least.

It's possible that will work.

the Texture Filtering is working in those images.
it has a more noticable effect the farther away from your Camera a location is however.

you can, however, get better results if you force it Driverwise - but this is because that will apply the same Filtering Level at all distances, while Warframe uses LOD.
