AA doesn't work in MOH:A, as it uses Unreal Engine 3.

Here's the solution:

This game is based on the Unreal 3 Engine (like Gears of War, Bioshock, and several others). This game uses a lighting technique called deferred lighting, which for some reason or another makes Anti-Aliasing impossible. (I know, it's ridiculous that a "next-gen" cutting edge engine wouldnt have support for something as basic as Anti-Aliasing. Anyway, Epic claims that they will update the engine to support AA in the future only in DX10 mode.

However, NVIDIA engineers have beaten them to it. If you are using Vista, you can enable anti-aliasing in the NVIDIA control panel. You need to select override application settings. However, it only works in vista for some reason on a Geforce 8 series graphics card.

Try to use both different settings and see which one you have the highest fps with the best edges as well

The AA you set in the Nvidia Conrol panel you can set to either : application Controled , off, Enance app, ovverride app.

Increasing your res would help also.

Its your nvidia settings if anything.
