From the help files;
SET DISPLAY MODE Width, Height, Depth, VSyncOn, Multisampling Factor, Multimonitor Mode

Multisampling Factor

Integer
Set Multisampling Factor to map direct to the D3DMULTISAMPLE_TYPE format in DirectX, ideal for setting multisampling screens for anitaliasing


*it may be the case that you have to ensure your card settings are set to "Application Controlled" in your graphics control panel, I`m not sure and haven`t tested*

Any ideas why this will not work?


If the multisampling factor is set to anything besides 0 and I have the get image command afterwards it just says illegal object surface or something similar. Without the get image it works no problem.

I think the problem is that you are trying to read from a bitmap that doesn't exist..... I think what you are wanting to do is copy the scene to an image.


The fastest code is the code never written.

You can't use 'get image' on a multisample surface. (DirectX limitation)

Even if it did work it would be unusably slow (it has to perform the multisampling again) and you shouldn't need to use 'get image' anyway.
