✨ What this edition adds
🟢 NVIDIA DLSS, DLAA and Frame Generation (new, RTX only, opt-in)
A full DLSS pipeline, with real settings in Settings, Graphics:
DLSS with four modes: DLAA (maximum quality), Quality, Balanced and Performance. Frame Generation (RTX 40 and 50 series): off, 2x or 3x. The DLSS model preset, your choice: K, M, L, J or F. A change applies when the application restarts: one click on Yes and it relaunches itself.
The package ships the dlss folder with NVIDIA's six Streamline files (MIT license). The DLSS engine DLLs are not included (legal reasons): in that same dlss folder, add, taken from a DLSS game you own, nvngx_dlss.dll for upscaling, nvngx_dlssg.dll for Frame Generation, and NvLowLatencyVk.dll if your driver does not already provide it.
I am not selling you a dream: all of this is still experimental. It works on my machine and on the games I tested, but every game is different and there is work left. If something looks wrong, tell me.
🧬 Runtime mipmap generation (new)
Many Switch games stream their textures without mipmaps, which shimmers as soon as you upscale. One checkbox in the graphics settings and the emulator builds the missing chains in memory, automatically, for any game. No pack, no files, nothing per game.
🎬 Native TAA (Temporal Anti-Aliasing)
Option in Settings, Graphics, Anti-Aliasing. Soft, cinematic, low flicker image. Works on all GPUs, no extra files needed. Looks best at higher internal resolution.
🧩 HD/4K texture pack fix
Fixes a crash that prevented large ASTC texture packs from loading (for example the Zelda BOTW and TOTK 4K packs). Large textures are decoded slice by slice instead of overflowing memory, far more stable with high resolution packs.
🖥️ VRR mode (Variable Refresh Rate)
Lets a G-Sync or FreeSync display follow the game's frame pacing, with a per game FPS cap (Off, 30, 60, 120). Smoother frame pacing on compatible displays.
🔄 Automatic updates
The app updates itself automatically from the project's own update server.
🖥️ Requirements
8 GB of RAM, a 6 core CPU recommended, a GPU from the last 10 years. OpenGL 4.6 or Vulkan 1.4. Windows 10 (20H1 or newer), macOS Big Sur (Apple Silicon). For DLSS: an NVIDIA RTX GPU. For Frame Generation: an RTX 40 or 50 series card.
