I can't seem to get the jagged edges to go away.

I didn't have them before ultra mode and I am wondering if it has to do with screen resolutions

Thunder is good, thunder is impressive, but lightning does the work.

Jagged edges can generally be removed by Anti-Aliasing. Depending on what graphics card you use though, Anti-Aliasing may not play well with Ultra Mode features, such as Ambient Occlusion.

We'd need to know more about what operating system you have, what graphics card you have, and what graphics card driver you are using before we could detail how to best remove the aliasing from the drawn images without sacrificing performance. Check this thread for more detail on getting updated drivers and telling us what drivers and equipment you have: http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=219502

Also note that the FSAA (Full Screen Anti-aliasing) option was moved out of the advanced graphics settings section. So, you have to set it manually now instead of having it automatically set for you based on your graphics presets. So, if you have not changed it since I17 came it, it is probably not enabled.

Then post the results of these two programs:

  • CoH Helper - it will show us basic computer settings and your CoH configuration.
  • HijackThis - it will show us what's running on your computer concurrently with CoH. Click on "Do a system Scan and save a logfile." It will automatically open up Notepad and put the info there. Make sure Wordwrap is off in Notepad (Format > Wordwrap unchecked) before you cut and paste here.
