ScaleForce and FSR can be used for higher resolutions, providing an even better image quality at the cost of performance.Īs for FXAA, this can be applied to games that don’t already have it baked in to (once again) enhance image quality jagged lines will look smoother. For instance, the Gaussian filter applies a sort of blurry effect on higher resolutions, but it won’t look so bad at lower resolutions, while also saving performance. The additional filters can be used in conjunction with the upscaled or downscaled resolutions for enhanced quality, at the expense of performance, or lower quality filters that are less resource-intensive. However, thanks to the FSR filter, players should be able to get a performance boost while maintaining most of the same quality as before. The Yuzu blog post for this PR mentions that players can get as much as a 20% performance boost by downscaling, at the expense of lower quality. On the other hand, for those who are looking to save performance, or who are using devices like the Steam Deck, the downscaling will definitely come in handy. It’s also a big help for those who have a monitor that’s higher than 1080p the upscaling quality makes games look fantastic. So certainly, if you play any of the mentioned games above, this pull request is for you.

a few bug fixes for Bayonetta 2, Pokemon Sword/Shield, and Yu-Gi-Oh: Legacy of the Duelist (fixes blurriness or certain models not rendering).

FidelityFX FSR from AMD (best for upsampling).

ScaleForce (good non-heavy upsampling).Gaussian (best for downsampling into the screen).Bicubic (good when rendering at same native resolution as the screen).

Nearest Neighbor (good for Pixel/classic games).

Resolution scaling (as low as 0.5x or as high as 6x).In a nutshell, this PR adds the following features to the emulator: This pull request is called Project ART (Advanced Rendering Techniques, or Aristotle’s Right Testicle…yuck) and was developed in collaboration with a few other developers. Shortly after the interview with GDKChan - creator of the Ryujinx Switch emulator - was published, one of the developers of Yuzu, the competing Switch emulator, contacted me and asked if I would be willing to take a look at his pull request for Yuzu.
