PC avid gamers have actually been getting the tough finish of the stick recently with lacklustre ports and buggy releases. One of many newest disappointments is the discharge of Star Wars: Jedi Survivor, which has been suffering from efficiency points. It is not only a matter of older {hardware} fighting a brand new recreation both, as even highly effective PCs have been had hassle. All this has earned the sport a “principally adverse” score on Steam (opens in new tab).
Over on YouTube, PureDark (opens in new tab) has uploaded a video showcasing a modded model of the sport operating at a lot better framerates. They’ve applied a DLSS Body Technology mod, which in keeping with the video proof introduced their recreation up from 45 to 90 precise fps. That is a marked enchancment over what many are seeing, particularly Steam’s ticked-off remark part.
PureDark’s modded resolution remains to be removed from excellent. It has visible artefacts and is not absolutely featured with regards to digicam information, and it isn’t at the moment out there to the general public. That is extra experiment than anything, although PureDark says in a remark below the video, “I had a breakthrough and [am] now attempting to exchange FSR2 with DLSS, that may make the picture look a lot better.”
Whereas the mod appears to do an honest job mimicking Nvidia’s DLSS 3 (opens in new tab), it isn’t the true deal and it was by no means meant to be. Nevertheless, for people packing a RTX40 card and nonetheless having poor efficiency in Star Wars: Jedi Survivor, it paints a irritating image.
This mod making such an enormous enchancment to the sport’s efficiency closely implies precise DLSS 3 assist would make an enormous distinction. After all, that may solely profit the house owners of appropriate playing cards and, because the upscaling tech solely works with the 40-series, that is a small pool of homeowners. Nevertheless it’s a pool who paid a premium to have probably the greatest GPUs on the planet, and have a tendency to anticipate higher efficiency out of their video games.
It is possible Respawn hasn’t included DLSS 3 assist because of AMD sponsorship. Whereas Jedi Survivor does not assist Nvidia’s upscaling, it does work with AMD’s FSR2, however that does not look like serving to a lot both.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor has been patched since launch (opens in new tab), nevertheless it nonetheless has some egregious points to repair. EA has launched a pseudo-apology (opens in new tab) citing high-end {hardware} operating Home windows 10 as one of many larger points, however that is by no means actually posed an issue earlier than and given the big selection of individuals on all types of {hardware} which are reporting issues, does not sound fairly proper. Particularly when a modded DLSS 3 implementation seems to make a lot distinction.
