When players first step out into the world ofMetaphor: ReFantazio, they’ll notice a lot of shimmery edges around characters and objects due to Anti-aliasing issue. This graphics setting is responsible for smoothing out jagged edges on textures, but it doesn’t seem to work that well.
This issue ruins the game’s immersion, as it spoils all the visual details you look atthroughout your journey. Here’s how to fix the shimmering/jagged texture issue caused by Anti-aliasing inMetaphor: ReFantazio.
Increase Display Resolution With Nvidia DSR or AMD VSR in Metaphor ReFantazio
One of the first fixes that can solveMetaphor ReFantazio’sshimmering/jagged texture caused by the Anti-aliasing issue is by doubling your display resolution. However, the maximum resolution players can set in the game is the native resolution supported by the monitor/display. However, you canuse Nvidia DSR or AMD VSR to select a higher in-game resolution.
This method will help reduce shimmer/jagged edges on texture in Metaphor ReFantazio. However, due to increased resolution, you’ll see a considerable drop in performance.
How to Enable Nvidia Dynamic Super Resolution (DSR)
Players using a laptop won’t see the Nvidia DSR option in the control panel due to Optimus. Gaming laptops with a ‘MUX’ switch or ‘Advanced Optimus’ will need to first completely switch over to their dedicated Nvidia GPU. Only after that, they’ll be able to see DSR - Factors listed in the settings.
Once you’re done enabling 2X resolution through Nvidia DSR, go tothe in-game Display settingsand select the higher resolution, which will now be available.
How to Enable AMD Virtual Super Resolution (VSR)
Now head intoMetaphor: ReFantazioand switch the in-game resolution to a higher one.
