Oblivion Remastered does a good job in thoroughly modernising the 2006 visuals with the latest rendering technology - but the more you play, the more the exp...
Frame gen shouldn’t be a crutch, and by design it’s only supposed to enhance games that’s get above 60fps naturally. It doesn’t do anything good for the open world that constantly tanks to 45. It’s not a master race thing, it’s a poor optimization thing.
No, the point is the DF video never even tested framegen or upscaling before deeming the issue unsolvable in this video. I’m just trying to offer additional options to tune settings they don’t cover in the video that may help.
Frame gen, for the record, is fundamentally a crutch. Specifically for CPU limits. It serves no other purpose. If you don’t need it as a crutch you don’t need it, period. It takes you from wherever you can get natively to hopefully closer to your monitor refresh rate. If you can reach your refresh rate then you don’t need it in the first place.
Or at least it does that in the default implementation from GPU vendors where you’re locked into uncapped, non vsynced FPS when using it.
I’m calling out that there seems to be a specific implementation here to use it with a frame cap. And with that fame cap if you can get yourself to, say 45-60 fps you can get a semi-decent 90 or 120 cap out on the other end that does trim down some of the stutters, especially if you also have VRR to eat a few extra miliseconds.
So it’s not ideal, you’re effectively locking the game to 90 or 120 and then trying to scrape by at 45-60 and double up with frame gen just so you can use an AI frame to slide in between the 45-80ms spike and eat the rest of the time difference with VRR. But hey, it kinda works, at least in my setup. Crutch or no crutch it makes the game more playable for me. I don’t have the tools to measure exactly how much more playable, and I’d like to see DF test it, but at a glance it seems to help.
That doesn’t mean they shouldn’t look into the cause and patch improvements, but if it can take the game from unplayable to playable for some people on some setups that’s a good thing.
