Have you tried tinkering with the anti-aliasing settings in the project settings?

Yes, and by the way I have RTX 3080TI and last driver update.

Strange…

Go to your 5.2/5.1 project folder, config. There is a file named DefaultEngine.ini
Post it here, we’ll take a look.

I didn’t find any setting for outline resolution.
What I’ve noticed: I have the same thing, I just didn’t care to realise that. And that Outline detail is same as objects edge without AA.
This could mean 2 things:

  1. Outline method has been changed;
    Or
  2. The outline has been isolated from AA. Maybe to save some fps.

Right now, I don’t think you can do anything. All you can do is to wait when they fix it (unlikely, low priority) or just deal with it.

Yes, it looks like antialiasing is not working with outline on versions 5.1+ I tried 5.3 preview and its same as 5.1 and 5.2.
