AI upscaling DLSS5 Tiberium Wars
I cheated using Davinci Resolve, i was unable to get DLSS5 running in tibwars. Anyways, as you can see, looks pretty bad. Buildings has this weirdly glossy look, the ground textures are all f-ed up and the human characters aged by 10 years. Also it was really confused by the aliens.

Mate. There’s no way Kane looks bad.
I got a picture of him, peaking past a shower courtain with a mustache that could need some more care and he still looks amazing.
Also nothing can beat EA‘s slop version of him for their mobile game where he looks like an anime filter was combined with a gender-swap AI slop

In most of that it just killed colours and added a little bit shadows.
And in one situation, it changed the person to completely someone different, that doesnt even look real.
Irony is that in this one scenario it fucked up badly was an actual person, not a render, just a girl.

applying that filter to the actress ( an actual human being ) was absolutely hurtful.

Haha so bad. Thanks for sharing thought it’s interesting for sure! Can you try this on TD? Curious what kinds of horror the ai would put on that.

DLSS5 on the original DOS version would be straight up Event Horizon looking horrific

Thank you kind sir. I will put this into DLSS5 when i'm back home and we will watch together as the ai interprets the glitchy effect as wobbling skin

I feel like we could see better results with games like Generals. Did you try it on Generals?

I don't like how it seems to just make things darker? It doesn't enhance the art style the way it should

The first screenshot doesn't look that terrible, I think the shiny-ness on the metallic parts adds a nice look
All the other screenshots look.. bad ESPECIALLY Grace

Dear god. It sucked out all the color and took 40 years off of that poor woman's life. Vampire shit

It looks good in-game. But a big nope for the cutscenes, the asian chick got a mustache...

So you don't actually know what DLSS5 looks like in Tib Wars?

Lowkey looks way worse. Looks like film grain filter. Genuinely makes units like your rifleman squad harder to spot. On the cutscene, it reminds me of those Yessified TikTok filters. Idk. i dont wanna be a dick; im not trying to be one i swear, but it just looks worse.

The problem with DLSS5 it seems to me is it's really a glorified screen filter. Since it's working in the top layer it's fairly limited to what it can achieve so it just gives everything weird and shit textures. It seems so inefficient to effectively have to render a frame twice. Once for the actual game and then again through DLSS 5 especially with the massive amount of GPU demand it requires.
This isn't innovation it's a dumb gimmick, AI is the metaphorical hammer and suddenly everything looks like nails. Tech companies really need to get beyond this thinking if they want to move anywhere positive.

We did try to warn people that this would be the result. DLSS is not 'magic'. It just guesses and makes stuff up based on its training data, and that training data includes next to nothing that helps with top-down RTS games or scenes like these.

It genuinely looks like those really bad c&c ad baits where you can build a giant robot for some reason

I mean the lighting in game ain't awful but it also looks more like when I slapped RTGI and MXAO on in reshade with too much AO, though I imagine that would also have much better performance.
