It would yes,Im not exactly sure why they did not implement AA to be honest,Maybe it caused too many issues with performance etc.

Theres a mod out there that adds AA to the game,Ive tried it but you can say goodbye to decent gameplay performance and good framerates :P

I'm not sure whether I've fully grasped the concept, but apparently the game engine in GTA IV makes use of a technique called 'deferred shading' when rendering a scene. This technique has some advantages. But because of the way it is executed, anti-aliasing is not possible in DX9. CryEngine3, which uses deferred shading in a DX10 environment, should apparently be able to do anti-aliasing.

Last thing I heard the mod you are talking about is not true anti-aliasing, instead it uses a technique called 'edge-detection' and uses the information acquired from that to then blur the edges to make them look smooth. And you can probably see how that would kill performance when the game itself is already very demanding.

I'm no expert when it comes to editing, but I like to have fun with it nevertheless.

Which looks the best?

I like the second one the best, but if you could have taken out the cloud by the sun and had the sun underneath, that would have looked even better. Good effort still though :D :good:
 
Decided to do some shopts of Forza after getting the idea from Whisper to put em in here :P Had em sat on my xbox not thinking I could put them here:
