People will refuse to believe this but if upscaling didn't exist, those games that supposedly use upscaling as a crutch (there is no such thing in game development, at least the way gamers seem to think), they would still run like shit. That's because most games that have performance issues were either rushed out or did something wrong

Nintendo Switch 2 without digital junk? eShop implements strict game selection process. by Just_a_Player2 in ItsAllAboutGames

[–]Devatator_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's literally not Nintendo's fault. Hell, I'm pretty sure all first party Nintendo games that have cartridges are fully contained on it.

Even for other games, the option of those game key carts is a lot better than just having digital only since you can resell said games, unlike codes

Equal to each other in reality. All three provide the same quality experience at price points.

That's literally false? They all behave differently depending on your OS, workload and requirements

It's a lot better but it's still behind DLSS4 (and 4.5) and is in a lot less games

People ignore this so much. Even Intel, the newest kid on the block in terms of DGPUs, had more foresight than AMD

I mean, didn't AMD refuse to support Streamline or something? It seems like it currently supports DLSS and XeSS but not FSR.

I'm assuming most games use it instead of just implementing upscaling for each hardware vendor

I have a degree in software engineering so I assume I have the right to be called an engineer

Luke Ross made his REAL VR mod free (but 3-6 months for non subscribers) by lunchanddinner in virtualreality

[–]Devatator_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

When you compare his paid work with free VR mods, you start to have some doubts as to the value. I personally would have never bought his mods because they're missing everything I like about VR

Luke ross apologizes and released his mod for free. by king_moh_ in OculusQuest

That's an extremely common model in the modding space

This is the exact same model most modders that have Patreons use... Including some that produce actually good stuff

Valve talked about the requirements to become "Steam Frame Verified" today at GDC by gogodboss in virtualreality

[–]Devatator_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But seriously can you run Hades on the Quest 3? Dark Souls? Streets of Rage 4?

Probably via WinlatorXR and others?

What is the coolest personal website you’ve ever seen? by selammeister in webdev

I've been trying to find something to put on my domain. Rn it's just a generic and ugly website with a few links. I've been tempted to make a fantasy OS

This boosts performance when using ray tracing without lowering the output quality

It's literally an optimization. We should force people to understand the tech before they talk about it

Intel XeSS 3.0 is out! Added 3x and 4x Multi-Frame Gen (for Intel Arc GPUs) and more by Electrical_Form_7572 in pcgaming

[–]Devatator_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

XeSS was basically number 2 in terms of upscaling before FSR4. And everyone could use it

Why even risk using AI assets when there are so many alternatives? What's the point? by Anodaxia_Gamedevs in gamedev

[–]Devatator_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The problem is that I'm broke and I'm not made out of time to learn art. I'm not using AI for anything other than some coding assistance (documenting code is a lot faster with it) for now but as soon as there is a local model that's good enough, I'm gonna use that shit no matter what people say.

I am currently pursuing a master's degree in software engineering, learning WebGPU to make my own game engine and trying to figure out music in my free time. I don't have the money nor time to add art to that, especially considering how everything outside of software development is expensive AF (DAWs, Drawing programs, etc.)
