DLSS is not working
So i'm going to assume someone forgot to ship DLSS with the build because checking the Engine.ini file in %localappdata% reveals that the game tries to load DLSS but there is no DLSS in plugins file, it also shows even though DLSS framegen is in plugins the engine.ini doesn't have anything to load the Streamline plugin

Also i dont really have the best vision but i can say just by the framerate( and tweaking the GI settings) that lumen is also not working even though i checked and r.dynamicglobalilluminationmethod is set to 1 so idk what is happening there
Seconding the DLSS issue, its there in the options but cant even enable it, nor the ray tracing.

There is no raytracing, atleast according to the UE console r.raytracing is set to 0, which is fine NVIDIA's Denoiser can work with SWRT lumen however i doubt that is present

Making games is hard i don't think you should insult someone for mistakes, DLSS isnt even that important to the game since it is very light to run, plus you always have options to enable FSR3( even if it is inferior to DLSS)
the nvidia .dll seems to be missing from the game files (?)
will probably be fixed soon

update: manually downloading nvngx_dlss.dll does the trick for now
just put it where the .exe is located

Well maybe, maybe not adding the DLSS file from other Ue5 game lets DLSS be enabled but it doesnt actually do anything, besides the ultra performance which cranks the resolution insanely higher than native instead of making in 9x smaller it makes it 9x bigger i think

I meant the path tracing in the options. Cant enable it because it also requires you to enable DLSS. Game works great tho, i dont think i ll wait for the DLSS fix

No but personally myself like dlss because it actually can look better with dlss 4 than native and ruin more quite on gpu. But regardless. if it ships with dlss it should have it day one and its not hard to have missed it from the devs. suprised really. just hope they fix soon

Oh i put it in the dlss plugin folder where you supposed to upgrade dlss. so i need to put it in with exe instead then and it works ? ill give it a go
From reddit:

so dlss is broken because devs didnt include it in the game files lol but you can fix it youreself by doing this...

google :"nvngx_dlss.dll"

grab NVIDIA DLSS DLL 310.2 from any safe site (i used techpowerup and it was a 46mb .dll file )

then open up your game folder and go search for the folder with "TheMidnightWalk-Win64-Shipping.exe" in it.

drop the nvngx_dlss.dll in that folder ...

Now your dlss works and you can launch from your main exe

BUT ray reconstruction does not work at all which is odd and the game says its not supported despite it being supported on my RTX card.

Any ideas?

dlssui.reg doesn't detect DLSS even with the nvgnx_dlss.dll in the .exe location. It seems like this doesn't fix anything.
