Batman Arkham Asylum

OK, I've been losing some time with this crap. Just for kicks and to quench that fucking thirst.

Used:
Vista 32bit Ultimate
9.10 CAT (driver only)
Latest Ray Adams util obtained from this fine site

Now, I created an ATT profile for the launcher (BmLauncher.exe), went here for 8800GTX IDs and inserted those in the game profile (including the description). I haven't forced anything in the graphics settings.

This is what I got, firstly the driver update warning

Then the settings.

You can obviously set AA. Then when hitting the play button

Half of the times you get a crash, other times it just goes on and you don't get any AA.

So I associated that profile with the BmStartApp.exe, the game runs but without AA. Finally, I left BmStartApp.exe running and associated the profile with BmGame.exe and you finally do get AA but GFWL doesn't allow you to sign into any kind of profile since the game wasn't properly started (I assume).

If I force AA via ATT, even on 2x I lose over half FPS while on 4 and 8 I get a slideshow

Anyway, on the images below you can see there is AA (nothing major though), but you can't save the game.

So... You get aa or not?

Yeah, look at the caps. But the way it's done, you can't save the game. Because you have to choose an exe for the profile and there are not one but two launchers.

In the Vendor ID put 10DE for the Device ID put 5E2 The device description put NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260. Do this for both profiles saving each one before starting the next.

Try this out.

I did do that (used different ID's, but the launcher is allowing me to turn on AA, so it's working) but it's a no go. Did he force AA from ATT or he used the launcher to turn it on via game settings?

He used the launcher.

I think I know what was the problem, I had all the profiles created, but I have set ATT to automatically exit so I was getting the error mentioned above.

Now it's working, but it taxes my FPS like hell, 50%. Why? My method form above was working great, the only downside being you couldn't save nor load the game.
