If I were to edit the .ini file and change iMultiSample to 8 will this allow me to use HDR lighting and antialiasing? Or, do I have to just enable HDR and force AA through the nVidia Control Panel?

Force AA and AF in the Nvidia CP. It should work.

I think he would rather edit the ini file than force it in the drivers.

In any case, if it comes down to it, you can make a specific profile just for Oblivion so it doesn't effect everything globally.

Why bother? It's easily setup in the CP and it works great.

Thank you for replies.

I ended up just forcing 32x through the control panel. I found out that even if you set it in the .ini file, the game would just automatically turn HDR off and Bloom on.

Be sure to turn AF to x16, it makes a big difference. :toast:
