(...) Well, after rendering at 300% and then scaling the images down again, I achieved an effect like that of anti aliasing.

(...) I've used this feature in LDLITE, and I'd say it's a great way to achieve an anti aliasing effect on the renderings. You simply render at 300%, say, with thick lines enabled.
