Ocarina of Time: NVIDIA DLSS and DLAA in place of the game's anti-aliasing network - #678
NVIDIA DLSS Super Resolution and DLAA for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (0400486024DEC000), replacing the game's own anti-aliasing network. This replaces #606's DLSS path (which imported #456 by Rengundom): one path, with #606's fallback reasons and input checks folded in.
What's in it
Anti-aliasing setting (Graphics, next to #616's option): Ocarina of Time anti-aliasing = Game / No sharpening (#616's bypass, unchanged) / NVIDIA DLSS (4K output, Quality from the game's 2560x1440) / NVIDIA DLAA (4K in, 4K out). The DLSS modes need "Use NVIDIA DLSS" and set a 1.5x resolution scale for the game. Also DLSS Preset (Auto = K for this game, or K/L/M) and DLSS Sharpness (AMD RCAS, Quality only; DLAA is never sharpened).
DLAA runs on the HDR scene colour before the tonemap, then the result goes back into the scene colour. DLSS Quality runs after the tonemap, on the image the network would have read.
Motion vectors
Camera motion comes from the game's own matrices: the c[7] current/previous view-projection pair. It is y-flipped; a built-in motion check, EDEN_OOT_MOTION_CHECK=1, measures which convention matches the image (0.0088 error flipped vs 0.0155 not). A 0.35 px per-axis dead zone removes sub-pixel drift on a still camera, which otherwise made the scene wobble.
Per-object motion for vertex pipelines: per-vertex history keyed by draw identity.
Per-object motion for mesh pipelines: the mesh program is evaluated again on last frame's constant buffers (a "shadow" pass in the recompiler, ir_opt/oot_shadow_pass.cpp). This covers instanced meshes that index whole 64 KiB constant buffers, such as falling leaves and wind-swayed foliage; up to 64K words per draw.
Jitter is applied only to draws that test or write the scene depth. The full-screen tonemap keeps the depth bound but doesn't use it, and jittering it shook the finished image.
Particles after DLSS. After the fog composite (fragment 3ddfb1d7a854c849) the game draws a few opaque, depth-writing surfaces (water), then only transparent or additive particles: fireflies, dust, Navi's glow. These draws write no depth and have no motion of their own.
DLAA: DLSS now runs at the first draw after the fog composite that doesn't write depth. The water stays in DLSS's input, jittered and anti-aliased. The particles are drawn unjittered on top of DLSS's output and never enter its history.
DLSS Quality: DLSS can't run before the particles there, so the scene colour is copied right before them and at the tonemap. The tonemap draw is then repeated from the particle-free copy. DLSS upscales that image, and what the particles added to the tonemapped image (with minus without, upsampled) is added on top of the output.
We first tried what vulkan: keep Ocarina's glows and particles out of DLSS history (night smear and flicker) #635 does: marking the particles in DLSS's bias-current-colour mask, both from the effects layer and from the exact before/after difference. The trails stayed, even with a mask that covered exactly the particle pixels. Drawing them after DLSS removed the trails in both modes.
Other inputs
Exposure: the tonemap's own exposure (1.5 in Kokiri Forest) is read from its pixel c[3] and given to DLSS as a 1x1 exposure texture. DLSS's auto exposure made DLAA jitter. The tonemap samples no eye-adaptation texture: the exposure is a CPU-written constant followed by a filmic curve.
Texture LOD bias: NVIDIA's log2(render/display) − 1, in DLAA too. Also 16x anisotropy for samplers with LOD clamps when an anisotropy level is chosen.
Fallbacks are counted per reason and logged every 600 frames, so a frame that copies instead of upscaling is never silent.
Also included
eac7a7d, RsMan-Dev's "judge unbacked images by their memory, not their texels". 4K DLAA needs it to keep the scaled scene images backed.
The texture cache's output-only rescale rules for this game, plus EDEN_NX2_RESCALE_TRACE=1, which says why an image stays at 1x.
Not in this PR
HDR presentation. We test with clshortfuse's native HDR (feat: add native HDR presentation #180) on an HDR10 display. This PR doesn't include it or depend on it: DLAA's HDR input is the game's internal scene colour, not the swapchain. SDR output with these modes has not been tested on our side.
DLSS Frame Generation, frame pacing and the other work on our fork. Frame Generation will need the after-DLSS particles masked as UI, or given their own motion; the plan is in docs/nx2/oot-fg-particles.md.
Testing
Windows 11, RTX 5090, clang-cl (LLVM 22) + Ninja, 4K HDR10 display with #180's HDR on our fork. Played in Kokiri Forest, the treehouse, the shop and the forest paths:
Camera pans: no jitter or wobble in DLAA or Quality.
Fireflies and fluff: no trails.
Falling leaves and swaying plants: no smear.
Water edges: clean.
Brightness: steady.
This exact branch was smoke-tested on its own (both modes boot, DLSS reports 3840x2160 → 3840x2160 and 2560x1440 → 3840x2160, no fallbacks after loading, screenshots correct). The long play sessions were on our fork, which has the same OoT code plus HDR and pacing.
Performance (RTX 5090, Kokiri Forest, 4K): DLAA about 40–50 fps, Quality about 48–55 fps. Quality's particle composite costs one extra full-screen tonemap draw per frame (a few percent).
Caveats
Windows and NVIDIA RTX only (Streamline). Other GPUs keep the game's network.
Ocarina-specific: shader hashes (tonemap VS 7bb354754112ad1a, fog composite FS 3ddfb1d7a854c849), constant buffer offsets and the scene's target shapes are tied to the current game version (v131072). A game update could need new values; the fallback log names what wasn't found.
Particles drawn after DLSS are not anti-aliased. They are soft glows, so it hardly shows.
Fairies trailed before the particle change; we haven't specifically re-checked them since.
Fog stays in DLSS's input, which is steady with a slight smear. EDEN_OOT_DLSS_BEFORE=fog composites it after DLSS (no smear) but its edges shimmer, because the game builds the fog from the jittered depth.
A mesh program needing more than 64K constant words still falls back to camera motion; the log names it with its constant buffer sizes.
With the VS 2026 STL, upstream nx2 itself doesn't compile here (std::ranges::find on StorageBufferAddr in global_memory_to_storage_buffer_pass.cpp). We patched that locally to build; it is not part of this PR.
Switches (all off unless set)
EDEN_OOT_DLSS_OUTPUT=dlaa|quality (overrides the setting), EDEN_OOT_OBJECT_MOTION=0, EDEN_OOT_MESH_MOTION, EDEN_OOT_DLSS_HDR=0 (DLAA after the tonemap), EDEN_OOT_DLSS_BEFORE=fog|tonemap, EDEN_OOT_DLSS_EXPOSURE=0 (auto exposure), EDEN_OOT_LOD_BIAS, EDEN_OOT_CAMERA_DEADZONE, EDEN_OOT_DLSS_MASK_GAIN, EDEN_OOT_DLSS_FOG_GAIN, EDEN_OOT_DLSS_FLIP_Y=0, EDEN_OOT_DLSS_REPORT_JITTER. Diagnostics: EDEN_OOT_MOTION_CHECK=1, EDEN_OOT_MOTION_DEBUG=1 (shows the motion vectors), EDEN_OOT_CAMERA_TRACE=1, EDEN_OOT_OBJECT_MOTION_STATS=<n>, EDEN_NX2_RESCALE_TRACE=1.
Images with more than 2^28 texels were never given memory and took the unbacked sparse
fallback, which drops writes and reads back zero. That is right for title 1's sparse texture
arrays (4.5G texels, ~23 GB) but also caught Ocarina of Time's sun shadow map once the
resolution scale makes it 18432x18432 D16 (339M texels, about 650 MiB). With nothing bound
the shadow map stays empty and the whole scene reads as shadowed.
For images over the texel threshold, ask the driver for the memory requirement of the image
and leave it unbacked only when that exceeds a quarter of the device-local memory, or when
the requirement cannot be queried. The decision is a pure function so it can be unit tested
without a GPU. Smaller images are unchanged.
Not measured on a GPU in this series: the effect on the shadow map is the reason for the
change, the unit test only covers the threshold arithmetic. Related work on sparse and large
images: Eglantine zortos293#570 and zortos293#503.

…asing network
Replaces Lichii zortos293#606's Ocarina of Time DLSS path with one that renders the game's 3D for DLSS
instead of around it. "Ocarina of Time anti-aliasing" gains NVIDIA DLSS (4K Quality, from the
game's 2560x1440) and NVIDIA DLAA (4K); Game and No sharpening (zortos293#616) are unchanged, and No
sharpening steps aside while a DLSS mode is selected.
- Jitter: Halton sub-pixel viewport offsets on the scene's geometry draws only (not full-screen
passes, not anything after DLSS ran in the frame).
- Motion vectors: camera motion from the scene depth and the game's current and previous
view-projection (y flipped to DLSS's convention, a 0.35 px dead zone against wobble), and
per-object motion from vertex history and from re-running mesh programs on last frame's
constants (OotShadowPass, up to 64K words: instanced leaves and foliage need ~36.6K).
- DLAA runs on the linear HDR scene colour before the tonemap, with the tonemap's own exposure;
Quality upscales the tonemapped image in place of the network.
- Particles (transparent draws after the fog composite that don't write depth) are drawn after
DLSS: DLAA runs at the first one; Quality repeats the tonemap draw from a copy of the scene
colour taken there and adds what the particles added to DLSS's output. Opaque draws after the
fog composite (water) stay in DLSS's input.
- NVIDIA's texture LOD bias for the render-to-output ratio; a chosen anisotropic level also
covers LOD-clamped samplers.
- DLSS Preset (Auto = K here) and DLSS Sharpness (AMD RCAS, Quality only) settings.
- Images larger than any screen stay at 1x and the rest scale by the allocator's unbacked rule,
so 4K DLAA scales the 33-layer scene depth; EDEN_NX2_RESCALE_TRACE=1 says why an image stays
at 1x.
- A frame DLSS cannot evaluate copies the tonemapped image; the reasons are counted in the log.

Possibly related issues
zortos293/Lichii issue 101: The changes overlap with the reported Ocarina of Time DLSS-network, tonemap exposure, shadow-pass, and large-image allocation areas.
With NVIDIA DLSS or DLAA selected, a failed output replacement can leave the game's own output pass reading network data that was not computed that frame, producing a wrong image. On machines without a usable DLSS runtime, the setting can swap in a jittered, unsmoothed image. Both should be fixed before merge.

Handle a failed probe image creation separately.
If vkCreateImage fails, requirements.size stays 0. The policy then returns true (unbackable) for every image above the texel threshold. This case is handled the same as "image never fits". The result is a sparse fallback for images that might have fit. Log the failure so the cause is visible.

Keep the network fallback valid when output replacement fails.
When tonemapped_gpu is nonzero, ReplaceOotNetwork skips the prepass and network before it knows whether the output replacement will succeed. If output validation or the copy fails, the native output pass can use stale network data and produce an incorrect image.
Ensure the current frame has a valid fallback before skipping these dispatches. A previous-frame output_replaced flag alone cannot protect the frame in which a new failure occurs.

Do not cache Requested() for the process lifetime.
static const bool requested is evaluated on the first call. PrepareDraw calls Requested() on every draw of every game, so the first game booted fixes the value. Consider two cases:
A user boots OoT with "Game", stops it, selects NVIDIA DLSS, and boots again. DLSS stays off.
A user switches from DLSS to "No sharpening". OotNetworkBypass keeps returning null, and core.cpp keeps forcing 1.5x.
The tooltip says "Takes effect when the game starts". In practice, the change takes effect only after an emulator restart. Output() reads the live setting, so it can also disagree with the cached Requested().
Cache only the environment override. Read the setting on each call, or recompute it at game load.

SnapshotScene returns void. With restore, it returns silently when copy which was never taken, or when its format or size differs. TextureCacheRuntime::OotSnapshotScene forwards void, and TextureCache::OotSnapshotScene then returns true without condition.
In OotRedrawTonemap, a failed restore of copy 0 is therefore treated as success. The tonemap is redrawn over the scene that still contains the particles. particle_frame is then marked, and OotDlss takes the "particles after DLSS" path on an input that already has the particles. The same false true happens when EGLANTINE_STREAMLINE is off, because the runtime body is empty.
Return bool through the runtime and the motion-vector helper. Return false when nothing was copied.
Return true at the other exits. Change TextureCacheRuntime::OotSnapshotScene to bool, with #else return false;. Then return the runtime result from TextureCache::OotSnapshotScene.

Run OotShadowPass after the other rejection checks.
If the pass succeeds but a later check rejects the mesh pipeline, the emitted shader can contain unused constant-buffer reads and copied calculations. This increases shader compilation work. The backend guards prevent the undeclared-resource failure.

Limit the forced-anisotropy change to Ocarina of Time.
forced now lets every sampler with a clamped LOD range get anisotropy whenever the user picks 2x to 16x. This changes MaxAnisotropy() for every title. The previous check excluded clamped LOD ranges on purpose. Games that clamp LOD to sample one mip level of a render target or an atlas can show filtering artifacts or seams when anisotropy is added.
The comment names Ocarina of Time as the motivation. Gate the new branch to that program ID so other games keep their current sampling.

Code-review suggestion for the interaction between the old DLSS path and #616's NoSharpening mode.
On base 89440b29, RasterizerVulkan::OotNetworkBypass() suppresses the bypass while DLSS is enabled unless oot_live_dlss->EvaluationFailed() is true. However, the input-validation fail(...) path in the old upscale replacement only logs and returns false; rejection can occur before DLSS evaluation. This suggests two distinct fallback states that deserve separate handling: invalid inputs for this frame, and a persistent Streamline evaluation failure. This is a source-level concern, not a demonstrated regression in this PR.
Could the new path include regression coverage or an explicit policy for both states, particularly when NoSharpening is selected? Skipping network prepasses and replacing their output must remain consistent; relaxing image validation would not be a safe fix.
Two related suggestions:
Split the aggregate unexpected upscale images diagnostic into bounded, specific reasons such as backing, format, extent, samples, range and aliasing. The proposed fallback counters would then be more actionable.
Consider preserving a validated 1x / lower-output-resolution mode alongside the new 1.5x / 4K modes for resource-constrained systems, and document SDR validation separately from HDR.
The preload-retention correction from #555 is already incorporated through #679, so it does not need a duplicate change.

Keep the camera-reprojection FSR 3.1 path (ocarina_fsr) and the newer jittered DLSS/DLAA path. The newer path owns the frame when Ocarina anti-aliasing is NVIDIA DLSS or DLAA; FSR stays available otherwise.
Co-authored-by: gamehhh7 <gamehhh7@users.noreply.github.com>
…esent
The phase came from the present counter, which can advance while the next
frame is being drawn, so part of a frame's 3D got one jitter offset and the
rest another while FSR was told only one. The phase now advances right after
the upscale pass, where the game's frame ends (as zortos293#678 found for DLSS).

Images with more than 2^28 texels were never given memory and took the unbacked sparse
fallback, which drops writes and reads back zero. That is right for title 1's sparse texture
arrays (4.5G texels, ~23 GB) but also caught Ocarina of Time's sun shadow map once the
resolution scale makes it 18432x18432 D16 (339M texels, about 650 MiB). With nothing bound
the shadow map stays empty and the whole scene reads as shadowed.
For images over the texel threshold, ask the driver for the memory requirement of the image
and leave it unbacked only when that exceeds a quarter of the device-local memory, or when
the requirement cannot be queried. The decision is a pure function so it can be unit tested
without a GPU. Smaller images are unchanged.
Not measured on a GPU in this series: the effect on the shadow map is the reason for the
change, the unit test only covers the threshold arithmetic. Related work on sparse and large
images: Eglantine zortos293#570 and zortos293#503.

Replaces Lichii zortos293#606's Ocarina of Time DLSS path with one that renders the game's 3D for DLSS
instead of around it. "Ocarina of Time anti-aliasing" gains NVIDIA DLSS (4K Quality, from the
game's 2560x1440) and NVIDIA DLAA (4K); Game and No sharpening (zortos293#616) are unchanged, and No
sharpening steps aside while a DLSS mode is selected.
- Jitter: Halton sub-pixel viewport offsets on the scene's geometry draws only (not full-screen
passes, not anything after DLSS ran in the frame).
- Motion vectors: camera motion from the scene depth and the game's current and previous
view-projection (y flipped to DLSS's convention, a 0.35 px dead zone against wobble), and
per-object motion from vertex history and from re-running mesh programs on last frame's
constants (OotShadowPass, up to 64K words: instanced leaves and foliage need ~36.6K).
- DLAA runs on the linear HDR scene colour before the tonemap, with the tonemap's own exposure;
Quality upscales the tonemapped image in place of the network.
- Particles (transparent draws after the fog composite that don't write depth) are drawn after
DLSS: DLAA runs at the first one; Quality repeats the tonemap draw from a copy of the scene
colour taken there and adds what the particles added to DLSS's output. Opaque draws after the
fog composite (water) stay in DLSS's input.
- NVIDIA's texture LOD bias for the render-to-output ratio; a chosen anisotropic level also
covers LOD-clamped samplers.
- DLSS Preset (Auto = K here) and DLSS Sharpness (AMD RCAS, Quality only) settings.
- Images larger than any screen stay at 1x and the rest scale by the allocator's unbacked rule,
so 4K DLAA scales the 33-layer scene depth; EDEN_NX2_RESCALE_TRACE=1 says why an image stays
at 1x.
- A frame DLSS cannot evaluate copies the tonemapped image; the reasons are counted in the log.

viewport cache key, and the nothing-dirty skip of UpdateDynamicStates runs the viewports when
the jitter moved; the OoT motion descriptor follows the memoised image bindings.
On oot-cons, the object motion words sit after the shared push constant layout
(OOT_MOTION_OFFSET = PUSH_CONSTANT_LAYOUT_SIZE) as members of the one push constant block,

The jitter is part of the viewport slot's value (ComputeDynamicState), and the dynamic

Port of the FSR 3.1 parts of Lichii PR zortos293#695 by `nyakuoff`: a second shader profile and host
setup for Ocarina of Time's input, which is tonemapped (LDR) with finite standard [0,1] depth.
- LDR shader variants: FFX_FSR3UPSCALER_OPTION_HDR_COLOR_INPUT=0, INVERTED_DEPTH=0.
- Unit exposure instead of FSR's auto exposure, the device-to-view depth of near 0.1 / far
25000, the vertical field of view from the caller, optional reactive and
transparency/composition masks, and a render-size default reactive mask (DilateReactiveMasks
fetches it per render pixel).
- RCAS takes the lower limiter of FSR 3.1.5 (FidelityFX SDK 2.0.0 f4c1da8e92, "Fix for
possible negative rcas output"); FSR::RcasSharpnessFromStops maps the sharpness slider.
zortos293#695 built its OoT path on zortos293#606's files, which zortos293#678 replaced; the OoT side is wired into
zortos293#678's TextureCacheRuntime::OotDlss in the next commit.

Two new "Ocarina of Time anti-aliasing" modes run AMD's upscalers on zortos293#678's inputs (Halton
jitter on scene-geometry draws only, so the HUD and full-screen passes are never jittered;
camera and object motion vectors; the effects/fog mask; the tonemap's exposure) in place of the
game's network, on any build, Streamline or not:
- AMD FSR 4 Native AA: the 3D at the resolution scale, anti-aliased 1:1 on the HDR scene colour
before the tonemap. At 1x it is the game's own size, so it fits a 1440p display and a native
3440x1440 render alike: the output is always the network's output image, not a fixed 4K.
- AMD FSR 4 upscaling: the 3D at the game's size, upscaled by the resolution scale (1.5x unless a
higher one is set), after the tonemap.
AMD FSR 4 runs through AMD's runtime (AmdFsr4Upscaler) when it offers FSR 4 for the GPU; AMD's
provider picks the model (FP8 on RDNA 4, super-resolution-ml.md). Its context is made on a
worker thread; until it is ready, and without the DLLs, the in-tree FSR 3.1 with zortos293#695's OoT
profile runs on the tonemapped image (HdrInput stays off then). AMD's own sharpening (FSR 4's
pass or FSR 3.1's RCAS) follows the sharpness slider; the effects mask is FSR 4's reactive mask
and FSR 3.1's reactive and transparency masks; the LOD bias is AMD's log2(render/display) - 1
with the resolution scale as the ratio. Jitter and motion vector scale go to FSR as to DLSS
(OptiScaler forwards DLSS's to FSR 3.1 unchanged, FSR31Feature_Dx11.cpp:136-137). AMD's backend
keeps a few frames of state, so at most three FSR 4 dispatches are on the GPU, and inputs in
array layers other than 0 are copied to plain images (FFX takes whole images).
TextureCacheRuntime::OotDlss no longer needs EGLANTINE_STREAMLINE (MSVC-only) for the shared
motion-vector path, so the AMD modes build with llvm-mingw and GCC. PickAmdUpscaler, the backend
choice, has a unit test. EDEN_OOT_UPSCALER=amd|nvidia and EDEN_FFX_UPSCALER=<version> are A/B

FramebufferTextureInfo::anti_aliased lost its only setter when the zortos293#678
port replaced the old DLSS path, so FXAA (and SMAA) ran on top of DLSS's
and FSR's anti-aliased image, and the scaling filter (EASU + RCAS for
FSR3) ran on it although it is already the screen's size.
The network replacement now records whether the latest output is the
upscaler's image; the display then sets anti_aliased, which skips the
anti-aliasing pass, and the scaling filter is skipped when that image is
shown 1:1 (the window pass samples it as a plain copy).

- Images larger than any screen stay at 1x and the rest scale by the allocator's unbacked rule,
so 4K DLAA scales the 33-layer scene depth; EDEN_NX2_RESCALE_TRACE=1 says why an image stays
at 1x.
- A frame DLSS cannot evaluate copies the tonemapped image; the reasons are counted in the log.

Port of Lichii PR zortos293#678 by `ProphetWild` (onto oot-int; GCC: a ternary between a
BitField and int now casts to u32). With zortos293#717 caches: the jitter is part of the
viewport cache key, and the nothing-dirty skip of UpdateDynamicStates runs the viewports when
the jitter moved; the OoT motion descriptor follows the memoised image bindings.
On oot-cons, the object motion words sit after the shared push constant layout
(OOT_MOTION_OFFSET = PUSH_CONSTANT_LAYOUT_SIZE) as members of the one push constant block,
and graphics layouts cover them. zortos293#606's own OoT path (TryOcarinaDlss, the deferred
compute bind, the 4K composite) goes, as zortos293#678 replaces it; zortos293#616's No sharpening stays.
The jitter is part of the viewport slot's value (ComputeDynamicState), and the dynamic
state pass stages that slot when the jitter moved. Pipelines with object motion keep a
pipeline layout and descriptor sets (not the descriptor heap path), as their buffers and
words are bound and pushed there.

zortos293#695)
Port of the FSR 3.1 parts of Lichii PR zortos293#695 by `nyakuoff`: a second shader profile and host
setup for Ocarina of Time's input, which is tonemapped (LDR) with finite standard [0,1] depth.
- LDR shader variants: FFX_FSR3UPSCALER_OPTION_HDR_COLOR_INPUT=0, INVERTED_DEPTH=0.
- Unit exposure instead of FSR's auto exposure, the device-to-view depth of near 0.1 / far
25000, the vertical field of view from the caller, optional reactive and
transparency/composition masks, and a render-size default reactive mask (DilateReactiveMasks
fetches it per render pixel).
- RCAS takes the lower limiter of FSR 3.1.5 (FidelityFX SDK 2.0.0 f4c1da8e92, "Fix for
possible negative rcas output"); FSR::RcasSharpnessFromStops maps the sharpness slider.
zortos293#695 built its OoT path on zortos293#606's files, which zortos293#678 replaced; the OoT side is wired into
zortos293#678's TextureCacheRuntime::OotDlss in the next commit.

Two new "Ocarina of Time anti-aliasing" modes run AMD's upscalers on zortos293#678's inputs (Halton
jitter on scene-geometry draws only, so the HUD and full-screen passes are never jittered;
camera and object motion vectors; the effects/fog mask; the tonemap's exposure) in place of the
game's network, on any build, Streamline or not:
- AMD FSR 4 Native AA: the 3D at the resolution scale, anti-aliased 1:1 on the HDR scene colour
before the tonemap. At 1x it is the game's own size, so it fits a 1440p display and a native
3440x1440 render alike: the output is always the network's output image, not a fixed 4K.
- AMD FSR 4 upscaling: the 3D at the game's size, upscaled by the resolution scale (1.5x unless a
higher one is set), after the tonemap.
AMD FSR 4 runs through AMD's runtime (AmdFsr4Upscaler) when it offers FSR 4 for the GPU; AMD's
provider picks the model (FP8 on RDNA 4, super-resolution-ml.md). Its context is made on a
worker thread; until it is ready, and without the DLLs, the in-tree FSR 3.1 with zortos293#695's OoT
profile runs on the tonemapped image (HdrInput stays off then). AMD's own sharpening (FSR 4's
pass or FSR 3.1's RCAS) follows the sharpness slider; the effects mask is FSR 4's reactive mask
and FSR 3.1's reactive and transparency masks; the LOD bias is AMD's log2(render/display) - 1
with the resolution scale as the ratio. Jitter and motion vector scale go to FSR as to DLSS
(OptiScaler forwards DLSS's to FSR 3.1 unchanged, FSR31Feature_Dx11.cpp:136-137). AMD's backend
keeps a few frames of state, so at most three FSR 4 dispatches are on the GPU, and inputs in
array layers other than 0 are copied to plain images (FFX takes whole images).
TextureCacheRuntime::OotDlss no longer needs EGLANTINE_STREAMLINE (MSVC-only) for the shared
motion-vector path, so the AMD modes build with llvm-mingw and GCC. PickAmdUpscaler, the backend
choice, has a unit test. EDEN_OOT_UPSCALER=amd|nvidia and EDEN_FFX_UPSCALER=<version> are A/B
switches.

…ed image
FramebufferTextureInfo::anti_aliased lost its only setter when the zortos293#678
port replaced the old DLSS path, so FXAA (and SMAA) ran on top of DLSS's
and FSR's anti-aliased image, and the scaling filter (EASU + RCAS for
FSR3) ran on it although it is already the screen's size.
The network replacement now records whether the latest output is the
upscaler's image; the display then sets anti_aliased, which skips the
anti-aliasing pass, and the scaling filter is skipped when that image is
shown 1:1 (the window pass samples it as a plain copy).

Hi @ProphetWild, thanks for the detailed OoT DLSS write-up. The shipped 1440p → 4K path sends zero jitter and keeps the game’s texture mip LOD bias. Your Halton jitter and DLSS-specific mip bias address both points.
On my RTX 3090 in docked mode, the DLSS indicator disappears while crawling through a tunnel and in some cutscenes, similar to the report in #456. Have you tested whether this rewrite keeps DLSS active in those scenes?
@ProphetWild@PantACRO4life With this PR and #579 together, the warm-up builds most fragment libraries in a form the game never uses, so first visits still compile them during play.
Object motion adds outputs to the vertex and fragment stages of every pipeline that draws into Z32 depth (BuildGraphicsShaders). The warm file's single-stage entries (fragment only, vertex only) stop at "unsupported stages" or "no fragment stage", so the warm-up builds them without motion. In one run, 19 draws were held 100 to 274 ms. Matching the runtime cache against the warm file, 56 of the 75 fragment libraries built during play differed from their warm entry only by motion, including all 19 held draws.
The change I tested builds single-stage warm entries in their motion form. A vertex stage takes the two highest varyings it doesn't write, and a fragment stage the two highest it doesn't read. Checked offline against 3,605 Z32 pipelines from two runtime caches, that choice matched the live one in all of them. It also adds object motion to the precache marker, so switching DLSS reruns the warm-up.
jarynclouatre@940d15d5ef (the vk_pipeline_cache.cpp part; the vk_pipeline_library.cpp change only stops the warm-up from using up the build log lines)
Before it, 16 minutes from Hyrule Field to Zelda held 46 draws (7 s in total). After it, a first visit to Kakariko Village (15 minutes) built 423 new pipelines with no held draws, and the fragment libraries it needed took 249 ms in total. Different areas, so not a strict A/B.
Tested on Windows 11, RTX 4070 Ti Super, Ryzen 7 9800X3D, DLSS 2560x1440 to 3840x2160, on a test build that stacks this PR, #579 and a few other open PRs on nx2 c2e293e.
@ProphetWild In Kakariko Village this PR's DLSS turned parts of the image into white clouds and black lines, depending on which way the camera faced, like the reports in #483. With "Ocarina of Time anti-aliasing" set to Game they were gone, so DLSS was spreading something in its input. #887 found the same on #606's path: a NaN or infinite texel in the colour input stays in DLSS's history.
Here the scene colour goes to DLSS as is. The change I tested has the motion vector pass, which already runs over every pixel, write a copy of the colour without NaN or infinite values (clamped to 1 for display-referred input) to an RGBA16F image, and hands that to DLSS. It also zeroes NaN or infinite motion.
Tested on Windows 11, RTX 4070 Ti Super, DLSS 2560x1440 to 3840x2160, same test build as my comment above. Back in Kakariko facing the village, where they showed before, there were no clouds or black lines. One short session, not a long soak.

@jarynclouatre thanks, that matches. I'll take the motion form into the warm-up once #678 is in (or as a follow-up PR on top of both), with credit to your commit.

NVIDIA DLSS Super Resolution and DLAA for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (0400486024DEC000), replacing the game's own anti-aliasing network. This replaces #606's DLSS path (which imported #456 by Rengundom): one path, with #606's fallback reasons and input checks folded in.
What's in it
Anti-aliasing setting (Graphics, next to #616's option):
Ocarina of Time anti-aliasing= Game / No sharpening (#616's bypass, unchanged) / NVIDIA DLSS (4K output, Quality from the game's 2560x1440) / NVIDIA DLAA (4K in, 4K out). The DLSS modes need "Use NVIDIA DLSS" and set a 1.5x resolution scale for the game. AlsoDLSS Preset(Auto = K for this game, or K/L/M) andDLSS Sharpness(AMD RCAS, Quality only; DLAA is never sharpened).DLAA runs on the HDR scene colour before the tonemap, then the result goes back into the scene colour. DLSS Quality runs after the tonemap, on the image the network would have read.
Motion vectors
EDEN_OOT_MOTION_CHECK=1, measures which convention matches the image (0.0088 error flipped vs 0.0155 not). A 0.35 px per-axis dead zone removes sub-pixel drift on a still camera, which otherwise made the scene wobble.ir_opt/oot_shadow_pass.cpp). This covers instanced meshes that index whole 64 KiB constant buffers, such as falling leaves and wind-swayed foliage; up to 64K words per draw.Particles after DLSS. After the fog composite (fragment
3ddfb1d7a854c849) the game draws a few opaque, depth-writing surfaces (water), then only transparent or additive particles: fireflies, dust, Navi's glow. These draws write no depth and have no motion of their own.Other inputs
Also included
EDEN_NX2_RESCALE_TRACE=1, which says why an image stays at 1x.Not in this PR
docs/nx2/oot-fg-particles.md.Testing
Windows 11, RTX 5090, clang-cl (LLVM 22) + Ninja, 4K HDR10 display with #180's HDR on our fork. Played in Kokiri Forest, the treehouse, the shop and the forest paths:
This exact branch was smoke-tested on its own (both modes boot, DLSS reports 3840x2160 → 3840x2160 and 2560x1440 → 3840x2160, no fallbacks after loading, screenshots correct). The long play sessions were on our fork, which has the same OoT code plus HDR and pacing.
Performance (RTX 5090, Kokiri Forest, 4K): DLAA about 40–50 fps, Quality about 48–55 fps. Quality's particle composite costs one extra full-screen tonemap draw per frame (a few percent).
Caveats
7bb354754112ad1a, fog composite FS3ddfb1d7a854c849), constant buffer offsets and the scene's target shapes are tied to the current game version (v131072). A game update could need new values; the fallback log names what wasn't found.EDEN_OOT_DLSS_BEFORE=fogcomposites it after DLSS (no smear) but its edges shimmer, because the game builds the fog from the jittered depth.std::ranges::findonStorageBufferAddringlobal_memory_to_storage_buffer_pass.cpp).
