NVIDIA RTX/GTX GPU AND AMD GPU USERS GRAB THIS (DLSS OVER FSR FOR RTX) ALSO SUPPORTS (FSR 2 OVER FSR 1 FOR GTX/AMD) MOD
https://www.reddit.com/r/pcgaming/comments/113477m/resident_evil_dlssdlaafsr2xess_vs_built_in_aa/

^Above is the link to the mod starting from Resident Evil 2 Remake all the way to the newest game Resident Evil 4 Remake

FYI: (GTX GPU owners and AMD GPU owners can also benefit from this MOD with FSR 2 over FSR 1 by using the same method but instead of obtaining the DLSS files grab the FSR 2 files)

This is not mine but I can confirm the MOD works for RESIDENT EVIL VILLAGE and should work for all other RESIDENT EVIL titles posted in this REDDIT form, I hope this helps old players of RESIDENT EVIL and new players of RESIDENT EVIL games, It benefits RTX cards with use of DLSS way more then FSR 1 or 2 does, I can now keep 120FPS steady with this MOD over FSR 1 or 2 on my RTX 3060 and it looks a hell of a lot better then FSR 1 in Resident Evil VILLAGE also Resident Evil 4 Remake using FSR 1 or 2 on RTX enabled cards, I have yet to do so for any of the other RESIDENT EVIL titles posted in the REDDIT form but I can assure if I have tested 2 new games the other RTX DLSS enabled mod for the other titles will work as well, Give a thanks to the person/persons behind the mod to show appreciation to them, HAPPY RESIDENT EVIL GAMING!


In the game folder the following should be in it from the zip folders

reframework folder <--- whole folder not just whats inside it placed in with game exe.

dinput8.dll <--- place in game folder with game exe.

dinput8.pdb <---- place in game folder with game exe.

whatever dll file your going to use for DLSS or FSR <--- not included in the main framework folder must be downloaded by other source (Dll being DLSS/FSR for upscale must be placed in game folder with exe)

PDPerfPlugin.dll <--- not included in framework folder must be downloaded by other source and placed in game folder with EXE and not to be dropped in with folder that the DLL is already in meaning the direct DLL in that sub folder when you unzip it has to be in with the games exe (No clue why the DLL that is zipped and has been placed in a sub folder confusing me a little but just follow above about placing the DLL file in with the game exe in that sub folder)

Works great.
The castle in RE 8 now looks so good.
Seeing the console versions with good AA for years and having a broken pc version was so frustrating...
Now it looks as gorgeous as it should have since its released.
Ty for the link !

For some reason I can't get this to work.

I see the REFramework menu ingame, but not the TemporalUpscaler option allowing me to use DLSS...

Followed the guide 10x times, nothing.

Not sure if this is related to the garbage update the game received yesterday ?...

Someone help ?

DX12 version with RT user here.

DX12 version with RT user here.

Personnaly,i put:
dinput8.dll
dinput8.pdb
PDPerfPlugin.dll
nvngx_dlss.dll
all in the game directory folder.(In the same folder as the game exe ) and it works.

The files you have to download are the one you will see scrolling down on the right of this page: https://github.com/praydog/REFramework/actions/runs/4576684645 ,the one from there: https://www.nexusmods.com/site/mods/502?tab=files and the DLSS one here: https://www.techpowerup.com/download/nvidia-dlss-dll/

I installed it today on an updated game and it works.Tried on RE2 and RE8,both work.
Be sure to get Praydog's files from the page i linked because there are 2 versions of the files,one with the upscaler and one without it. This is the right ones.
I had the same issue as you before because i was picking the wrong files on another Praydog's Github page...

Okay, got it now !

Indeed, I downloaded the wrong package from Praydog's github, gotta say I didn't see any warning about this, only about different packages for the DX11 and DX12 version...

It's working now, thanks a lot for the quick answer & help !

If it works then that is grand :)

u should make it clear in ur post that u will need a github account to get the correct files, or offer a link to the correct files urself.

i dont mean to be rude, but u seem like u want ppl to try this. it would lead to many less headaches if ur instructions were more clear.

if u want others to try somethin, they shouldnt need to look up multiple other threads n wrack their brain to fill in the blanks in order to try it.

The github link says those file are expired and when I download new files the upscaler option isn't included in REframework menu

I created github account and all but still can't find files that has upscaler included

do you still by any chance have working dinput8.dll and dinput8.pdb files ? (the version I am downloading only has dinput8.dll file ...)

Any form of upsampling will.

Got your back there buddies.

Everything should be in there, the dlss .dll is also the correct working version (latest ones added some awful ghosting on enemies, perhaps there's a new one out though).

Let me know if this works for you. Just unpack the whole zip in your game folder.

Thank you for uploading those
