jf17enjoyer12 Posted July 21 Posted July 21 With the new series of AMD GPU's which exploded in popularity AMD users have been in desperate need of FSR4 because the current options are between TAA which makes everything blurry and MSAA which has a massive performance hit and is very inefective. Giving us FSR4 would allow AMD users to have an equivalent of DLSS4 and an actually viable antyaliasing/upscaling technique. It would help greatly and i assume it would be relatively easy to implement since we already have a version of FSR in game however it is unusable because of how ancient it is. 5
wumas0201 Posted July 29 Posted July 29 +1 As a AMD user, we really need a useful FSR to help us to stay in the game.
Solution Czar Posted July 29 Solution Posted July 29 (edited) As a nVidia gpu owner that wants options in the (near) future, also there should be FSRAA in the sim. I use DLAA and it is much superior to DLSS as that one wrecks image quality. FSRAA is analogue to DLAA. Both doesn't downscale the image while looking better than MSAA 4x, but with a bit of ghosting, and having the weight of MSAA turned off. You guys should be pushing for FSRAA as well.

Nate--IRL-- Posted July 29 Posted July 29 I agree with the call for FSR 4 - however, for those that are not in the know, I've had good success with Optiscaler to force better FSR via hijacking the DLSS options in DCS. https://github.com/optiscaler/OptiScaler Nate Ka-50 AutoPilot/stabilisation system description and operation by IvanK- Essential Reading

If you could help me get reshade and optiscaler to work id appreciate it They both use the same file to hook into DCS, so to have them working simultaneously, you need to move the reshade files to the bin/plugins folder. The easiest way is to create a "mod" for reshade to quickly install/uninstall using a mod manager, since you need to do this after DCS updates First we need to start with a clean DCS install: If you already use a mod manager, remove all installed mods from the game install directory Search "Repair" in Windows start menu to repair DCS Select the "slow" and "search extra files" options Now that we have a vanilla DCS install, download, install and setup ReShade to your liking Now run DCS repair again, but with "fast" and "search extra files" options This will find all the reshade files and give you the option to Delete/Move/Keep those files Select Move and the tool will move all the reshade files to the .../DCS World/backupXX/ folder (the folder with the highest no.) Create a ReShade_vXXXX/bin/plugins folder in your mod manager's library folder Copy the contents of .../DCS World/backupXX/bin folder to ReShade_vXXXX/bin/plugins folder Run DCS repair again, with "fast" and "search extra files" options to clean out ReShade Install OptiScaler according to their wiki instructions Now run DCS repair again, but with "fast" and "search extra files" options This will find all the OptiScaler files and give you the option to Delete/Move/Keep those files Select Move and the tool will move all the reshade files to the .../DCS World/backupXX/ folder (the folder with the highest no.) Create a OptiScaler_vXXXX folder in your mod manager's library folder Copy the contents of .../DCS World/backupXX/folder to OptiScaler_vXXXX/ folder So now you have "mods" for both ReShade and OptiScaler. Since OptiScaler is already installed, install the ReShade mod, and it will get installed to .../DCS World/bin/plugins
