FSR 2.0

Can’t experience dlss? No, no, there is also FSR (manual dog head). (The mod will follow up with the latest version from the original author in a timely manner)

FidelityFx Super Resolution 2.0 for Red Dead Redemption 2

(Current version status: 1.3.1, updated on July 17)

This mod is based on the VULKAN graphics API of PotatoOfDoom's Cyberpunk 2077 FSR2.0 mod;

It can bring an improvement of about 20fps to RDR 2;

Supported game versions are Red Dead Redemption 2 1436.25 (this is the RDR 2 learning version of version 1436.28, extraction code: dxvt) and above; AMD FSR technical support for RDR 2 versions below 1436.25 is now supported. For details, please go to [Fairy Software? Forcibly enable AMD FSR and NVIDIA Image Scaling technology]

It can provide NVIDIA graphics cards (non-RTX series) and AMD graphics cards with a significant increase in game frame rates similar to DLSS technology (this mod can theoretically provide FSR 2.0 support for all graphics cards);

If you have an NVIDIA graphics card 20 series (RTX) or above, this mod is not recommended. (DLSS in the game is already very good. If you insist on changing it, just pretend I didn’t say so).

Installation method and usage method

Download the latest version;

Extract the contents to the RDR 2 directory;

Set API to Vulkan;

Run RDR 2 and enable DLSS (note that the DLSS file has been overwritten into an FSR 2.0 file at this time, and the DLSS option can be found in the game settings).

Problems during installation (combined with the problems reported by everyone, not technical problems of the mod itself)

Question: How to check whether the game version supports this mod

Answer: 1. Open the game settings and see the version number in the lower left corner of the UI (≥1436.25)

2. Open the game root directory and check if there is nvngx_dlss.dll

Uninstall method

Remove nvngx.dll, d3d11.dll, ffx_fsr2_api_dx12_x64.dll, ffx_fsr2_api_vk_x64.dll and ffx_fsr2_api_x64.dll from the RDR2 files directory.

FAQ

Q: Social Club error (code: 4)

A: Restart RDR 2 and try again. It may take up to 3 attempts, but you usually won't receive this error.

Q: Error message box FFFFFF

Answer: Make sure you are using the DLSS version of RDR 2 and that you have performed the installation steps correctly. (The learning version requires the dlss version of RDR 2)

Question: Black screen/crash

Answer: Set asyncComputeEnabled to false on your system (system.xml file can be found in Documents\Rockstar Games\Red Dead Redemption 2\Settings)

Q: The option for DLSS does not show up in settings

Answer: Follow the installation steps correctly and make sure you are using the latest legal version of RDR 2. (The learning version requires the DLSS version of RDR 2)

Q: The game looks bad/blurry after enabling FSR 2.0

A: Reduce TAA sharpening or disable it completely and set anisotropic filtering to 16x

Q: Others

Answer: If the problem persists or is not listed, you can try disabling Windows Memory Integrity in Windows Settings. See this guide here (Win11/10). This is due to the nature of the loader and R*'s anti-cheat.

Known screen blur and solutions (positive feedback welcome)

1. When it rains, the picture is too bad

Solution:

1. Adjust the DLSS option to Balance or Quality;

2. Improve the game resolution.
