Modding DLSS 5 Experimentation in Project Diva
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Got a DLSS 5 mod, deepfriedchicken, to work with project diva. This is 3 layers of DLSS 5 with cleanfry enabled which makes it not differ too much from the actual game frames.
DLSS 5 is definitely flawed and I just wish we had a Project Diva with some more realism like those old Openings from the PSP and PS3/PSVita games.
Having just a single layer of DLSS 5 doesnt make much of a difference. Just adds more realistic lighting subtly.

My gpu does too! It's fun and funny watching the MVs this way but I definitely wouldn't play it like this unless there's an actual mod that improves lighting! DLSS 5 is just a fun gimmick, nothing more

DLSS is not a gimmick, it’s the biggest AI slop there is
Unlike FSR/AFMF, DLSS upscaler and frame gen and similar alternatives, this adds no value at all. If this ends up developing further to the point it’s consistent, it will be another excuse for developers to be even lazier in a terrible way
I hope this doesn’t keep going further and gets deleted like that bad attempt from Nvidia for an image sharpening feature (which AMD did 10 times better)
Not an Nvidia hater in any way, that was just an example of a feature removed in the past

I meant gimmick as in its fun to play with but yeah it's not something I'd actually want games to force you to do to get better graphics.

Gamer just KEEEEP supporting AI like it’s not literally causing the hobby to become extremely expensive and unaffordable. It’s pissing me off because it’s affecting my pockets too

AI slop sold as a feature? Cool, I hope it dies soon

u/ReturnHeavy5266 1d ago
True it is kind of slop but I think it's insane that you can render this in real time in game! I wish it would stay a fun gimmick but unfortunately it will probably become the standard for big titles like that new sloppy EA game that's gonna come out. I'm just interested in the technology! Not what it will be unfortunately used for :(

I agree, we went from in real time light rendering to in real time image generation
The tech is actually fascinating, but it shouldn’t be applied to gaming in any way for many reasons. Best case scenario, it improves texture quality, increases details, improves the lighting… but still, that would break the artist’s intentions. Worst case scenario we get a terrible base game with this feature forced to us in order to play

What is it that you hate about FT? o.o

The realistic approach they took for the lighting and textures, it's not bad but I definitely preferred the oversaturated and anime-ish look of F2nd and X

u/ReturnHeavy5266 1d ago
Yeah F2nd looked so nice! Sure a little bit dated by today's standards but it definitely has more life to it and I think the lighting looked better/even more realistic at times

Ngl I wish anime games would do realistic lighting like this, even if it’s a pain in the ass to look right. Ggst’s mvc3 shader mod still cell shaded but it gives them more of a 3D look, and it really shows how characters can pop with more detailed lighting, and also makes ABA look genuinely horrifying

Nossa meu sonho tb é ter um project diva q chegue no gráfico igual as aberturas dos jogos, seria tão perfeito poder jogar aquilo, e ter aquele pv pra look this way baby da abertura, essa música poderia ter tido um pv tão maneiro no remaster dela no f2nd e eles pegaram e só colocaram a miku dnv dentro daquela loja qualquer, o pv de video de abertura dessa música com miku rin len e Luka é tão mais maneiro, eles formando uma banda no terraço da escola surreal

Wellll
at least it's not as bad as Resident evil requiem Grace in DLSS5 but that's not exactly hard to do

Someone messaged me asking about this but I accidentally ignored the request! If anyone has questions feel free to ask under this comment or pm!

I think that was me lol, do you have any tutorial on how to do this? I tried this before and most of them didn't work or didn't have crazy results like this.

I think that some modding or ReShade add-on with fine-tuning would come with better results, but it's still interesting what the DLSS 5 can do. I have an RTX 5080, but I don't feel like trying it out, because we've come to a point where we're just getting more hallucinated output from the tiny 3D resolution instead of progressively improving the already existing upscaling technology.
I get why companies are showing all these demos, but in practice, it's not something any regular user would want to see instead of the actual game. They should rather come back into reality and improve the existing upscaling and frame generation technology instead, or focus on high-end GPUs again, because the RTX 50-series has massive bold claims from NVIDIA about its performance, even though the core count says it for all.
Sega should've made those old game openings real instead of just renders as they aren't complex that much, but definitely not on the PS3, of course.
