Depends on where you're trying to get rid of them at.  Are you talking about in game, or in a screenshot.

If it's for in game, posting your specs and sim would help out greatly. ;)


If it's for screenshots, there's a few ways we can go. :)

In that case, the first way, which is what I use the most, is to take the eraser tool in your graphics program and set the opacity to around 15-20% and lightly work the jaggies down to a smooth line.

The other way is to use the soften tool and work over the jags until they are gone, but thus method is more noticeable in the end result. ;)

Also the smudge tool set at around 7-16% going along with the edge of the jaggies can get them effectively erased.  Just don't warp the photo. ;)
