No AA applied to screenshots?

[Meat5taiN]

I hope I'm posting this question in the correct place.

 

I'm currently using Phinix Natural ENB tweaked to my taste. I've played around with various AA methods and all of them seem to function correctly. I'm currently using ENB TransparencyAA and I'm seeing good results in-game. However, my screenshots appear very aliased, but still the correct resolution. I've tested with both the default Skyrim screenshot function and the ENB screenshots, and both look the same. I've also tried it with different AA settings with no joy. Is there a way to take a screenshot and have it appear the same as it is rendered to the display, without using resource heavy third party applications? Also, I would prefer to avoid using super-sampling. Thanks for any help with this. Feel free to ask if any info is needed.

Prolly FXAA which is shader based or a child of that. Besides Enb changing those things altogether, it might not even be classified as FXAA anymore or AA, hence a child of. Steam captures make a great sound huh, but they are compressed. The vanilla game takes bitmaps an puts it in the game file I reckon, not compressed. Then 3rd party programs like fraps will do all kinds of stuff. There's even new one, but once Fraps went to continuous recording an other options for video I didn't look at new stuff.

 

It's possible that the Enb stuff is 3rd party to the video card an the game (software) meaning it would take a pic of what's rendered before Enb. Not that I would know, but other methods of taking pics would be what I would do, or ask the Enb you use or people that use Enb, cause not everybody does. I got a 2 year old EVGA 570 GTX with 4Gb of Vram, that I'd rather not fry, so I keep the heat down an only run things at 24 or 30 fps, the 24 is just to make videos, an there's a world of difference between 24 an 30.

 

With videos it's all about storage. I only got two 90 Gb Sata III SSD's so really I can only record about an hour of 1080p 24 frames per second. The 24 is just to keep the bitrate down later so everybody on the internet can see it. (well mostly) I take that hour an encode it from 1080p to 720p an that keeps all the detail while conforming to streaming bitrate restrictions. Makes a nice video, that at least looks like what it's like to play that game at a high as heck detail level. It's not like Enb, but it's kind of the same thing you are wanting to share. The thing is you need about 1Tb or more of SSD to really log your play an then grab edits of that or make backups of it for when your fingers fall off an you just want to watch video games, cause truth be told, it makes up more of our memories now.
