Aliens vs. Predator is a DirectX 11 game that makes full use of tessellation and advanced shadow rendering. We used the Aliens vs. Predator Benchmark Tool developed by Rebellion. This program reads its configuration from a text file. (Our configuration files can be found here.) We ran this program at 1920×1200 and 2560×1600, with “Texture Quality” set at “Very High,” “Shadow Quality” set at “Medium,” anisotropic filtering set at “8x,” and anti-aliasing set at “2x.”
