AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution 3 (FSR3) is now open source
18 Dec 2023 at 3:36 am UTC

you can download demo versions of Forspoken and Immortals of Aveum which were the first 2 to have FSR3.

Enabling FSR frame generation appears to work for Immortals of Aveum. For example it goes from about ~85fps and jumps up to ~122fps using native AA fsr settings w/FG (no upscaling). feel free to try it for yourself (free demo)!. I couldn't get it working for Forspoken (but have heard that it is possible - not so for avatar).

Quoting: rustigsmedYes - I use Sunshine on a headless vm on my home server, can stream to moonlight my LG tv (with ps5 controller working), phone and of course other pcs. great for remote gaming or editing. Better than steam's remote play with the ability for 120hz and desktop use. Highly recommended.
How does your TV run Moonlight? Do you have a Steam Link dongle?
No dongle - had to put tv into developer mode and then pretty sure I went to install the WebOS Homebrew - which allows you to install a number of apps (not all working these days - but moonlight is there and works great - it's a community fork - mariotaku - github). PS5 controller i just setup through the tv. Moonlight can launch straight to steam big picture or the desktop.

Any word on their antilag / antilag+ feature for linux? potentially sounds like linux may get fsr3 only. haven't tried it but it appears games could be fairly laggy without it.

Here's how Cyberpunk 2077 2.0 runs on Steam Deck and desktop Linux

Quoting: TheRiddickThe DLC has DRM and will prevent you from playing without GOG Galaxy 2.0.

I used a new tool called Comet which worked a few times but now just errors out as the game calls home and fails.

This might be the end of GOG for me.

Quoting: ShmerlSo far I've seen other people also reporting the crash.

ehh very disappointing... I've still had the same issue playing from GOG Galaxy 2.0 w/ the game installed via the app (through Lutris).

Quoting: rustigsmedThis is with Phantom Liberty/new expansion - (2.0 was ok with the exception of Galaxy wanting to continually update it).
Interesting, I'm running it without using Galaxy and using Wine+esync+vkd3d-proton (nothing else like any extra GE patches and etc.).

So I wonder what exactly is causing the difference. Though I'm using Mesa-main and latest vkd3d-proton master (7900 XTX).

So far I've seen other people also reporting the crash.
OK interesting I have gone to launch back in and can't get into the game. So I could initially get in (once) - start a new game commencing at the Expansion, choose new character / background etc. Launch into the world - was working great. I've now had one start into the preload screen and the rest of the attempts not getting anything going. Will report back if I get it going.

Quoting: rustigsmedyeah running well for me Lutris / GOG-Galaxy / GE-Proton8-15 - mesa23.1.7 - although everyone is right with the console buttons - that is annoying. getting good fps 90-100 ultra 6900xt 1440p 5950x no fsr (w/debian VM running in the background).
That's with the new expansion, or just 2.0? 2.0 also was OK for me, before I added Phantom Liberty. That's when it started crashing.
