    I don't think SweetFX is working for me. The game looks the same no matter which preset I choose. I'm running as administrator and I have deleted my config file and player profile. I also verified my file integrity. Still all presets look the same.

    I should have mentioned that SweetFX is not working for me in regular AMS or the beta version. This leads me to believe that the problem is on my end, but I have no idea where to look. Running both versions as admin. I've always had SweetFX enabled but I guess I never knew if it was working or not until the presets came along. Please, can someone point me in a direction to look.

    Mine never worked as well. Looking forward for a tip.

    Also I can't force any setting on my AMD GPU software. Nothing happens and I need to rely on Config Tool's AA.

    Are you using any overlay (Steam) or game monitoring software like MSI Afterburner?

    Anything that hooks into a game like SweetFX does can cause it to not work at all.

    I'm not using an overlay but I am using the Asus equivalent of Afterburner. Unfortunately I can't disable it right now but I will do it when I get back home. Thanks for the suggestion.

    I made sure Steam overlay wasn't on, disabled Asus GPU Tweak, and turned off anything that might run in conjunction with AMS and still no luck with SweetFX. It's not a deal breaker for me, but I would like to see if it makes any kind of noticeable visual difference. Thanks to all that helped.
