- Modders have now managed to run multi-frame gen across all DX12 GPUs.
- The tech can now be run alongside AMD’s FSR technology.
- Using the INT8 files, the latest FSR4 can be unofficially run on older GPUs alongside Frame Gen.
Upscaling technologies like Nvidia’s DLSS and AMD’s FSR are exclusive to newer GPUs, but can be enabled on older models via software such as OptiScaler.
For Frame-gen, however, the AI-frames creator is exclusive to newer models: 2X for the RTX 40-Series (older GPUs too if enabled via FSR Frame Gen or third-party apps), and 4X is strictly exclusive to the latest Nvidia Blackwell and Intel integrated Arc-B series.
Fortunately, modders have now managed to run this technology on all DX12 GPUs via a DLSS emulation layer, enabling software-based frame generation. Now, one YouTuber injected multi-frame gen via optiscaler on top of FSR 4 in Cyberpunk 2077 running on a now nearly 4-year-old RX 7900 XTX.
Why it matters: Multi-frame gen cannot work with FSR4; it only works with Nvidia’s DLSS technology. For modders to run these 2 technologies together without official AMD support is simply amazing.
Showcased by Ancient Gameplays on YouTube, the DLSS enabler now allows FSR4 and multi-frame generation to run together across all DX12 GPUs. With INT8 files, gamers can enable FSR 4 on older GPUs, including RDNA 2/3 GPUs.
The YouTuber explained the manual process in his video, which involves copying files into the game directory. It is worth noting that DLSS enabler 4.0.0.4 is in the experimental stage and must be installed on top of version 3.0.
For testing, he ran Cyberpunk 2077, and the results were disappointing. Artifacts are quite visible, and the YouTuber preferred using 3X frame gen, but it still looked poor in motion. Still, this is a viable option for those willing to sacrifice visuals for more frames.
Since this mod messes with the game files, it should not be used in online games since it can interfere with various anti-cheat software.
Nevertheless, official support would definitely be better, taking into account all these issues, especially artifacting, etc. Since modders have already made it possible, what’s stopping AMD now?
