I've tried to modify Knight sample whith minor changes in setupWindow() func to enable FSAA, but it doesn't work.

Code:
bool setupWindow( int width, int height, bool fullscreen )
{
   glfwOpenWindowHint(GLFW_FSAA_SAMPLES, 4);

   // Create OpenGL window
   if( !glfwOpenWindow( width, height, 8, 8, 8, 8, 24, 8, GLFW_FULLSCREEN ) )
   {
      glfwTerminate();
      return false;
   }

   if( !fullscreen ) glfwSetWindowTitle( caption );
   
   // Disable vertical synchronization
   glfwSwapInterval( 0 );

   // Set listeners
   glfwSetWindowCloseCallback( windowCloseListener );
   glfwSetKeyCallback( keyPressListener );
   glfwSetMousePosCallback( mouseMoveListener );
   
   return true;
}

Why :?: :?

Have you also enabled multi-sampling?
Code:
 glEnable(GL_MULTISAMPLE);

Hmm... probably something to do with the HDR then. Can you try doing the same thing to the Chicago or Terrain sample? Neither of those use the HDR pipeline, and I remember there being problems with FSAA and floating point render buffers in the past.

I have the same thing with the Chicago demo... don't know, maybe it's dont work so nice as I want, but I exactly see the step on men. Are there better antialiasing methods available for Horde3D?

Another question: how are you confirming that it is not working correctly?

Try calling glfwGetWindowParam(GLFW_FSAA_SAMPLES) after creating your window, to make sure that the window actually supports FSAA (some drivers may not support FSAA in all configurations).

Ok, it works now in Chicago sample.
glDisable( GL_MULTISAMPLE ); in Renderer::initStates() was at the bottom of problem. Thanks! :)

Excuse me for bumping an old thread. May I ask you why GL_MULTISAMPLE is disabled by default in Renderer::initStates() ? Because that disables the multisampling in other libs too [glfw/sfml] and SampleCount in H3DOptions.

I've tried to enable the multisampling by changing the glDisable(GL_MULTISAMPLE) to glEnable(GL_MULTISAMPLE) in Renderer::initStates() like yarik. Is it the right way to enable the multisampling?

Multisampling should be enabled on a per-rendertarget basis, as long as you set the maxSamples to something other than 0 on that render target.

As always thanks a lot dear swiftcoder :wink:

Umm, sorry for stupid question, but how to set MSAA in forward pipeline?
If I try to add a buffer I get: Pipeline resource 'pipelines/forward.pipeline.xml': Unknown RenderTarget format

Code:
<Pipeline>
   <Setup>
      <RenderTarget id="buffer" depthBuf="true" numColBufs="1" format="RGBA8F" scale="1.0" maxSamples="16" />
   </Setup>
   <CommandQueue>
      <Stage id="Geometry" link="pipelines/globalSettings.material.xml">

         <SwitchTarget target="buffer" />
         <ClearTarget depthBuf="true" colBuf0="true" />
         
         <DrawGeometry context="AMBIENT" class="~Translucent" />
         
         <DoForwardLightLoop class="~Translucent" />
         
         <DrawGeometry context="TRANSLUCENT" class="Translucent" />
      </Stage>
      
      <Stage id="Overlays">
         <DrawOverlays context="OVERLAY" />
      </Stage>
   </CommandQueue>
</Pipeline>

RGBA8F is not existing (would be a 8 bit floating point format). You can use RGBA8 or RGBA16F instead. However, please note that MSAA with FP buffers is often not supported on older hardware.

I changed RGBA8F to RGBA8 (and to RGBA16F), but I still get nothing with this pipeline. No errors in the log...
