Add an optional D4R_INSTALL_MODE=asi release (d4r-<version>-asi.zip)
holding only d4r.asi and a companion d4r/ folder, to drop into an
existing OptiScaler plugin directory.
- Shim: export InitializeASI. It identifies OptiScaler by its PE export
name to find the active INI, then launches d4r-setup.exe out of
process (no GPU or network work under the loader lock). The .asi
build loads its runtime and config from the companion d4r/ folder.
- tools/d4r_asi_setup.cpp: native helper. It waits for the game to
exit, installs the D3D12 wrapper and the private d4r12core.dll beside
the EXE, and merges the NGX route into the loader's INI (including
GE-Proton's prefix-local INI) with backups. Unchanged launches do
nothing. It skips Proton helpers and background utilities and runs
setup for one plugin install at a time.
- scripts/private_d3d12_core.py: points vkd3d's d3d12.dll forwarder at
d4r12core.dll without moving code addresses.
- install.sh runs from inside the ASI's d4r/ as well as the proxy
release root. d4r-check.sh checks ASI installs (loader, plugin path,
LoadAsiPlugins, HookOriginalNvngxOnly, Wine drive paths).
- Packaging, build script, docs, ASI_README.txt and tests.
Validate Env identifiers and accept UTF-8 BOMs and last-value INI keys.
Resolve the OptiScaler GPL license before builds and support both system
license locations. Match the bridge's KFD selection by SIMD count.
- Explicitly route OptiScaler to d4r\nvngx.dll in release packages.
- Extract INI generation into a helper that preserves line endings
and rejects missing or duplicate settings.
- Check NGX routing separately from file presence and return failure
when the installation is incomplete or misconfigured.
- Add an optional OptiScaler patch for external DLSS backends while
preserving AMD identity for FSR4, with matching launch guidance.
- Align portable and launcher marker polling defaults at 200 us.
- Log when d4r's model override replaces game or OptiScaler presets.
- Add configuration, package, routing and coexistence regression tests.
- Update installation documentation, add FSR/DLSS comparison videos
and ignore local .tools artifacts.
