Same way as above, only use +a0.3 for example, of course  :-)

Adding to the renderer\Quickres.ini file is as easy as going into the Tools
menu and selecting Edit secondary INI file.  I think that's better than
creating a new one, only my opinion of the moment though.

+a0.1 +r4 might do okay and not take forever.  A jitter (+j1 is default) of
1.0 can sometimes foul up things by making grainy lines though so you might
want to lower it.
Everyone has their own preference.  I just like to also use +am2 instead of
+am1 because the description of how it works sounds good to me  :-)
