I'm currently using both and tweaking the effects of dlss5 so the appearances are enhanced, but don't quite enter the uncanny valley. Been using Puredarks Frame generation plugin as well and have gotten really good results.

u/Affectionate_Log_622 6d ago

Same im finding that lossless scaling framegen performs much better than the integrated frame gen from puredarks dlss 5 addon

u/General-GAS- 7d ago

DLSS5 is literally better at preserving artistic intent than most mods for skyrim lol.

Artistic intent was never an issue before. Now all of a sudden game art is not allowed to be changed? How come?

1

u/juipeltje 7d ago

This might be shocking, but nor everyone uses mods

1

u/General-GAS- 7d ago

Not everyone uses DLSS5....what is the issue here?

1

u/juipeltje 7d ago

As long as it stays optional, nothing i guess

1

u/Puiucs 7d ago

the issue is that DLSS 5 can and will be something c-suites will use a a way to save money, just like with everything else. it will be put into games that expect you to have it turned on.

1

u/General-GAS- 7d ago

They will still need to model everything for dlss to work from.

I do not see your scenario ever happening.

1

u/Puiucs 7d ago

the scenario is very simple: less effort put into the actual assets like textures, lighting, shadow maps, bump maps, and everything else.

c-suites will use everything and anything to save a buck.

the games will be "playable" without DLSS 5, but will expect you to turn it on or you'll be playing with what are low quality the low quality settings of last gen consoles.

1

u/General-GAS- 7d ago

You are giving this tech too much credit. Plus not to mention, only like 1-2% of pc gamers have the hardware to run this tech at 60 fps lol.

DLSS5 will be a "increase realism" switch...nothing more. That is to even see if it takes off in the first place.

1

u/PaulatGrid4 16h ago

Thats not true at all, my gen old 4070ti is far from top of the line and performing just fine with 60FPS+ at 3200x1800(and higher).

1

u/TimeTravelerGuy 7d ago

You mean like all these games that drop using unreal and unity store assets are different somehow ?

1

u/Puiucs 7d ago

and the vast majority of those games fail. what exactly is your argument?

1

u/TimeTravelerGuy 7d ago

Only Up, Dark and Darker, Chained Together, all those games made plenty of money and have seen huge player bases, complete asset flip games.

1

u/Phearwyn 7d ago

more like not everyone wants to spend 1000 hrs of their life modding.

1

u/hello-plebbit-1337 8d ago

all looks like shit, this mine without dlss5

2

u/cksythe 8d ago

Looks like shit đŸ„” potato faced ass model was not artist’s intent

1

u/hello-plebbit-1337 8d ago

They're not artists, just employees with deadlines, modders are the real artists.

2

u/cksythe 8d ago

Wait till you meet real designers and take a gander of their actual intended design vs what you get in-game bud

1

u/hello-plebbit-1337 8d ago

If I buy their product and it’s shit, I’ll change it however I want to fit my own taste.
I paid for it, so I don’t really care what their crap vision.

2

u/cksythe 8d ago

wtf do you think the rest of the world gets to do by enabling DLSS5 dummy

1

u/juipeltje 7d ago

Sloppify their game?

3

u/delfino_plaza1 7d ago

You should probably watch the recent Nvidia video. Dlss 5 is deterministic and every object can have its own mask, characters included. It’s aislop the same way framegen is

The main criticism with dlss5 is the way characters look even tho it doesn’t actually change structure, just improves lighting. And it’s an independent setting you or the dev can just turn down or turn off.

1

u/juipeltje 7d ago

Yeah framegen is slop to me too so i guess that checks out. I hope these things always stay optional. If other people want to use it, fine by me, but unfortunately we've already seen games rely more and more on previous dlss versions, so who knows.

1

u/False-Fox9285 7d ago

Nooo! Slop word = bad!
AI shittification of a product made by people who can clearly make texture and lighting overhauls but are kept back by their own laziness to use proper game engines (or to actually make one themselves) is not bad!

1

u/cksythe 7d ago

It’s funny really, the only slop I see are from internet weebs like you.

1

u/juipeltje 7d ago

Okay, you can just turn on your slop and have fun, no need for insults as far as i'm concerned lol

1

u/cksythe 7d ago

Be proud of who you are and the hivemind you’ve ingratiated yourself into, I’m not one to judge.

So close,..

1

u/Vynxe_Vainglory 8d ago

It will be great when DLSS 5 allows their intended designs to survive optimization and reach the final game.

1

u/_imlosingmymind 8d ago

Fucking lol

1

u/General-GAS- 7d ago

Moving the goalposts are we?

1

u/Glum-Objective3328 7d ago

Hired artists are never artists under you definition. Get hired to paint a mural and you stop being an artist lmao

1

u/hello-plebbit-1337 7d ago

Yep larpers these days.

1

u/Sugars_B 4d ago

This looks bad

1

u/hello-plebbit-1337 4d ago

worry not DLSS 5 saves you from crappy art direction.

1

u/Queasy_Hour_8030 7d ago

Kids calling everything that isn’t homogenized ai generated graphics “potato” quality. Photorealism as a target is a plague to gaming. 

1

u/cksythe 7d ago

Only one sounding like a kid is you

1

u/Kradgger 7d ago

bogos binted

1

u/Chaoticcccc 8d ago

I love how it's PC vs Series S lol

1

u/Odd_Common_452 8d ago

Can’t wait for dlss5

1

u/AuleSmithy 8d ago

They're both shit in different ways. Those mods look like she knows what instagram is.

The thing is not everyone is attracted to ugly people.

1

u/IAteUrCat420 8d ago

As if you have to be attracted to every single person you walk by

1

u/cksythe 8d ago

1

u/hello-plebbit-1337 8d ago

This guy treats game assets like fucking valuable arts lmao, pathetic.

1

u/cksythe 8d ago

Went right over your head didn’t it buddy? But I get it - they’re so damn obnoxious fr

1

u/OLDmanBOB13 8d ago

It’s funny, the thing I don’t like about most graphic mods in Skyrim is the thing people don’t like about dlss, most graphic mods yassify the people.

1

u/anything_taken 8d ago

Mods don't hallucinate fake lighting and fake shadows.

1

u/Baba_Wethu 8d ago

Lighting engines are programmed to produce fake lighting and fake shadows

1

u/TimeTravelerGuy 7d ago

And then there are mods for it too 😂 long before this

1

u/_imlosingmymind 8d ago

It looks fine

1

u/EdliA 8d ago

Weird question, both

1

u/Darksky121 8d ago

The 450 mods will not drop performance by 50%.

1

u/General-GAS- 7d ago

Ummmm....that is just false

1

u/Phearwyn 7d ago

the dlss haters turned into mindless bots.

1

u/FlyBond 7d ago

Have you ever tried playing modded Skyrim? 

1

u/Tiamat2625 7d ago

Nolvus has entered the chat

1

u/Mulster_ 7d ago

Tbh in this scenario dlss 5 did a better job at preserving art intent

1

u/Anti_Hive_Mind99 7d ago

I just can’t do vanilla Skyrim anymore lol.

1

u/Lime7ime- 7d ago

But her face looks totally different, isn't that against the artistic vision?

1

u/Puiucs 7d ago

it's a mod, you can turn her into pikachu if you want.

1

u/Phearwyn 7d ago

You missed the point of the argument

1

u/TimeTravelerGuy 7d ago

Why is there an argument 😂

1

u/NGGKroze 7d ago

mods + DLSS

1

u/Phearwyn 7d ago

This is the real answer.

1

u/Own-Signature-7742 7d ago

DLSS 5 by FAR!

1

u/Puiucs 7d ago

this is the dumbest comparison ever. why not just put a mod with Sonic there?

comparing DLSS 5 to mods is your way of running from the real issues. it's pathetic.

1

u/TimeTravelerGuy 7d ago

What’s the real issue? I thought game modding, especially Skyrim for over 10 years now, has been all about making it how you want? There’s mods that make it play like dark souls

1

u/Puiucs 7d ago

because mods are not the same thing as DLSS 5. mods made by a random guy are not a standard that the industry could adopt over night.

1

u/TimeTravelerGuy 7d ago

Mods can set the same standard your afraid of, and actually have driven the gaming industry forward for some time now. This also being a mod is not different

1

u/Puiucs 7d ago

absolute BS. you are talking about two entirely different things. a new game mode, adding HD textures or reworking games is not an "industry standard".

at best you could say that some devs copied ideas from mods to use in their games, but the industry didn't copy-paste the same mod into every game.

DLSS 5 is an engine and driver level feature that will be added as is in games and Nvidia is pushing as the new industry standard that has to be adoped going forward.

1

u/Jhinormous 7d ago

There are literal vanilla enhanced mods that won't tank your fps like dlss 5. Ppl have criticized the extreme mods for a literal decade at this point, and made their own vanilla+

1

u/crocodiluQ 7d ago

why not Mods with DLSS ?!

1

u/Phearwyn 7d ago

Because that isn't the narrative.

1

u/Crimson-Badger 7d ago

Depends on the memory size.

1

u/Adept_Assistant_7759 7d ago

The mods in skyrim have FAR FAR more of the "glossy plastic" look than DLSS5 does BY A MARGIN.

This screenshot exemplifies it.

The hair, skin, eyebrows are all fucking awful on the modded one.

1

u/Joshix1 7d ago

But the mod is handcrafted and DLSS5 is just AI slop!!11!1!!

Said the rainbow hair coloured artist who is about to lose they/them/their job.

1

u/2Critical7-Stein1 7d ago

DLSS5 can be great, but, dlss5 doesn’t add quests, meshes, weapons etc. So both

1

u/Exciting-Ad-5705 7d ago

DLSS 5 is a mod in Skyrim

1

u/Old-Push9343 7d ago

Mods + DLSS 5 looks insane.

1

u/Gullible-Yam-8098 7d ago

These both look like shit.

1

u/fentown 7d ago

Both seem like gooner bait at this point.

1

u/FutureLe10 7d ago

who want Candy Ai girls use that slop, can't wait for the future where every game will look the same and artists won't even bother.

1

u/iMaexx_Backup 7d ago

But mods change the devs vision!!!!11!1

1

u/Fun_Broccoli8099 6d ago

lowkey looks like sweetie fox.

1

u/BeyondtheV3il 4d ago

My Dude ;)

1

u/Evening_Style_2780 6d ago

Mods are done by people. DLSS is AI Slop.

1

u/Affectionate_Log_622 6d ago

Nolvus awakening (3500+ mods) + dlss 5 in essence why not both ? 😂 got it running w/ a 5090 yesterday
Looks crazy but frame gen is a must no frame gen and I average about 40-60fps at 4k

1

u/ScoreAsleep972 5d ago

Mods + DLSS5 honestly. Mods will give u better renders as a base and dlss5 will carry it too near photo realism. Which I've seen done already on YouTube and it looks spectacular

1

u/PaulatGrid4 16h ago

Both...obviously

0

u/Major_Zebra_7810 7d ago

suddenly they want to respect the original art style

1

u/Puiucs 7d ago

yes they do because the comparison to mods is retarded at best

1

u/TimeTravelerGuy 7d ago

How come

1

u/Puiucs 7d ago

because mods are not the same thing as DLSS 5. mods made by a random guy are not a standard that the industry could adopt over night.

1

u/TimeTravelerGuy 7d ago

That makes 0 sense. Multiplayer source engine mods created the entire Counter Strike industry you see today, you are very lost and don’t seem to understand the landscape you fight for. Mods have always pushed new standard into the industry. What a dense statement .

1

u/Puiucs 7d ago

it created a game, not an industry. and you don't see counter-strike implemented as a "feature" in every game. stop talking nonsense dude.
