In this case, we'll leave these at their defaults, and click the Save New Config button to save this change. First we'll tick the SMAA Anti-aliasing box, and in the Category details pane at the bottom of the Configurator, we can highlight each component of SMAA and adjust its value in the box just beneath to alter the appearance of SMAA. The most popular effects are already ticked in the list, so we'll untick them all to start with, and implement them indvidually, describing each.ģ.
