@AyMazingATS & BenganJ

NPI settings look ok to me.
Game log: Lots of mod errors but shouldn't cause AA to not work, i think, i don't use mods.

So you should have AA.
In game change to scaling 125%, does it now look horrible or just the same?
Just the same... you don't have AA working.
Horrible... you have AA working, set back to 100% scaling.

In config.cfg
uset g_gfx_quality "3" mine is "-1", perhaps you chose gfx ultra in game settings? may not be an issue, just different.

If you had reshade installed, is the DXGI.dll file it creates still in the game folder with the game exe?
The game uses DXGI and may use the reshade one if it's still in the folder.
From your log >>> 00:00:02.048 : [disp] Adapter 0: on DXGI backend <- this is always in log.

You say you have HDR monitor, in log:
00:00:02.048 : [disp] Mode 1 - HDR10 (DXGI)
00:00:02.048 : [disp] Mode 2 - HDR10 (NVAPI)
Does it matter which? There's DXGI again as mode 1, can you set mode 1 to test or turn off? Note AA works with game HDR on or off.

Other than that it should just work with steps 1, 2 & 3 and nothing more.
Here's the bit you won't like...
Rename config.cfg and run the game so it will generate a new one. Apply step 3 again.
and/or
Uninstall current nvidia driver and then install again using "clean install" option not "express".
Don't import NPI settings, add them from step 1 again.
The above are in the Q&A section of first post.

@JHTrucker

I've just watched a live-stream by him and earlier here he himself thought
it might be JBX graphics! I can confirm, he's got AA after removing JBX
mods. I've asked him to report here tomorrow!

The error is related to Coast to Coast about missing cities. The other errors are SCS errors I believe. I no longer run Coast to Coast. Those missing city errors(not SCS ones) will be there for a long time.

Yes I chose ultra. Recently I had to reformat my computer. I was testing things out without using these tweaks so I chose ultra.

When I first got JBX I did try using Juan's reshade. When I stopped using that I deleted all the folders and files in x64. I went through Steam and did a local file integrity check for the default files to be back in there.

I have actually no clue on how to change that?

@AyMazingATS

Mate, the live-stream looked pretty good, especially if you take into account your internet speed.
BUT, you will have to increase the sound volume of your voice relative to the game sounds, I could
barely hear you.

Thanks Bengan. Makes me glad that you think the quality was there.
I will tick the volume slider up a couple notches or lower the main volume slider. I don't want to blast people out of their speakers either.

Well, it sounded much as if you sat in closed box, but on the other hand,
you're supposed to sit in a truck cabin. :laugh3:

LOL, yea. :laugh3:
My audio is very simple. Corsair Void headphones. I have no dedicated streaming mic, or say a Scarlett 212.

I'm sure I might eventually need to buy something for better audio.

I'm just a simple man trying to get through in a technology based world. I don't want to accept donations, superchats, or anything like that. I stream(if you want to call it that) for the community. There are already enough scalpers out there just after money. I didn't want to add my channel to that list.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, we've seen that so many times earlier.
It's a habit for that guy, a must, so that he can feel big!
That's how small people make it!
