PC avid gamers have actually been getting the tough finish of the stick these days 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 sport both, as even highly effective PCs have been had bother. All this has earned the sport a “largely unfavourable” 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 working at significantly better framerates. They’ve applied a DLSS Body Era mod, which in line with the video proof introduced their sport 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 answer remains to be removed from good. It has visible artefacts and is not absolutely featured in the case of digital camera information, and it isn’t at present accessible 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 interchange FSR2 with DLSS, that may make the picture look significantly better.”
Whereas the mod appears to do a good job mimicking Nvidia’s DLSS 3 (opens in new tab), it isn’t the actual deal and it was by no means meant to be. Nevertheless, for folk 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 help would make an enormous distinction. After all, that may solely profit the house owners of suitable playing cards and, because the upscaling tech solely works with the 40-series, that is a small pool of homeowners. But it surely’s a pool who paid a premium to have top-of-the-line GPUs on the planet, and have a tendency to count on higher efficiency out of their video games.
It is possible Respawn hasn’t included DLSS 3 help as a result of AMD sponsorship. Whereas Jedi Survivor would not help 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), but it surely nonetheless has some egregious points to repair. EA has launched a pseudo-apology (opens in new tab) citing high-end {hardware} working Home windows 10 as one of many larger points, however that is by no means actually posed an issue earlier than and given the wide selection of individuals on all types of {hardware} which are reporting issues, would not sound fairly proper. Particularly when a modded DLSS 3 implementation seems to make a lot distinction.
