    So what you wanted in the end is higher res shadows... Because you can TAA low res shadows all you want and they will still be low res and aliased.
    Other than that, it is true that MSAA High is doing a rather good job overall.

    I guess higher res shadows could work or maybe soft shadows may also help. I'm not sure what's the solution. Is there a way to AA shadows only?
    As it stands, the performance hit for shadows isn't that hard, would it hurt having higher res option because the current ultra certainly isn't ultra, more like low.

    Is it really because the shadows are low res or is there something else happening with them? They are very low res (saw tooth lines) but even when shadows are right next to the player they look higher res but still have the shimmer when the player moves even just a centermete.

    Shadows hit hard specially when overcast or headlights. All the shadows needs to be AA-ed. In Overcast-weather the track is just one big shadow :p

    I noticed a hit at night but I race only in overcast conditions now and I'm getting great performance. Night on the other hand I'm getting stutters but I won't do night in AMS 2 because of the shimmer on backs of cars! This is another issue altogether I think. It seems like it's reflections or something! I can see it on helmets and roll cages, i haven't driven enough at night in AMS2 because I saw the same things in my short test that plagued pC2 (rear spoilers on GT3 where I big issue in pC2).

    Hope it's indeed not TAA. I was reading Dirt Rally 2.0 forums, and I had the worst flashbacks, lol. TAA made DR2.0 so blurry I thought it needed glasses :p

    If it is and you dont like it well thats why they are options ;) turn it off , i for one dont mind the ghosting that ACC has , i so prefer that over the jaggies when using FXAA or even Kunos's own KTAA , they both look like sh17 compared to TAA in ACC . Same for any game that has TAA , its the first thing i turn on , its basically performance free and reall the best at removing jaggies . There is such a thing as sharpening filters that even nVidia have added at a driver level but even that i dont need when using TAA as generally its a non issue imo ;)

    TAA won't magically fix low res shadows folks...

    In here it runs far better and smoothly than pc2. Pc2 graphics are cool but I was never really a fan of it tbh, they always seemed a bit rough on the edges for some reason. Running a geforce with a gsync monitor 16x aa

    This week I fired up Pcars again and it looks stunning and all but instantly I noticed the bad AA. AMS2 is better with AA than My first findings after I started AMS2 for the first time. :D It plays very smooth with fairly high settings. Even on my triple 7800x1440 setup.

    It doesn't appear he is a beta tester, well at least he doesn't have the Reiza backer badge!

    Try the Ultima race at night and tell me how the rear spoiler looks when headlights hit the Ai in front of you? That's where I have issue with the Madness engine, it was bad in pC2 on cars at night and is very similar on AMS2 cars at night.
    That and shadows :(
