Add a basic upscaler like Lanzcos, FSR 1 or Snapdragon Game Super Resolution 1.

I noticed that 50% resolution scaling already looks not bad with shaders, so having extra upscaling would probably make it even nicer.

Amethyst alr upscales the image to fit the screen

Fsr won't work due to it only working on Vulkan/directx apps

[thorn reef]

but thats just linear/integer scaling or whatever?

[meager sorrel]

Yes

[thorn reef]

Even FSR 1.0? The one you can use on any app with "lossless scaling"?

[meager sorrel]

Something like fsr will not work at all on amethyst or even mc java

[meager sorrel]

Lossless scaling only works on windows

And it does a lot of fuckury with applications window to get working

[thorn reef]

what about like Snapdragon Game Super Resolution 1.0?

[meager sorrel]

I don't know enough about it to say for sure

[thorn reef]

or like Lanzcos?

but I don't see why FSR 1.0 shouldn't work, since it should just be a very basic algorithm?

It's not like FSR 2.0 that would require temporal data or stuff

[meager sorrel]

It just doesn't support opengl

[weak narwhal]

OpenGL development is kinda

Abandoned, no further improvement cuz they already switched to Vulkan api

"desktop upscalers simply wont work because phones cannot run then fast enough" -tomikun

[thorn reef]

idk, could maybe look into "Snapdragon GSR 1/Game Super Resolution", cuz that one should be like the same thing, but made for phones

[meager sorrel]

GSR will be snapdragon exclusive and might require modern snapdragon hardware to function

[thorn reef]

you can run GSR on PC with lossless scaling too, idk if there's anything exclusive about it

[weak narwhal]

I don't think a6xx supports this

Or it does?

[meager sorrel]

Not sure

[meager sorrel]

"of course it does?"
"desktop GPUs support everything"
"phones GPUs do not"

Runtime cost on Snapdragon: SGSR is well optimized to run on Adreno™ and generally can provide maximum wave occupancy.
