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.
- engine/rr: d4r's own shaders for the denoiser frame (exposure, six encoders,
five decoders, hkpn output stage) at NGX layouts, plus PTX->GLSL/HIP packing
scripts, reference implementations and weight extraction
- runtime.h/runtime_rr.inc, game_rr.{h,cpp}: GameDenoiser wired into the engine
build (d4r-rr replay binary) and the D3D12 shim's feature-13 path
- shim: answer GetFeatureRequirements from d4r's own state only (the old
cross-binary CUDA handoff crashed OptiScaler's scan); drop the core's
CUDA GetFeatureRequirements import
- shim/harness: exact guide capture/replay of a frame's RR inputs
- kernels/rr: expanded enc0/engine prototypes; kernels/tools: ptxsim rewrite
plus rrsim and an engine test; vulkan: ptx2glsl FP8/cooperative-matrix
support, kvk inout buffers and KVK_DISABLE_OPTIMIZATION
- bridge: report the surface array in cuSurfObjectCreate traces
- packaging: RR settings and the ICU launch overrides in D4R_README
A standalone Vulkan inference engine (engine/) for DLSS presets K and M that
runs from weights extracted from the user's own nvngx_dlss.dll, with d4r's
own input, network and reconstruction shaders or the native HIP network
layers, recorded into the game's command list by the shim. Opt-in
([Engine] Enabled / D4R_ENGINE=1); anything uncovered falls back to the
CUDA/ZLUDA path with the reason logged.
Byte-identical to NGX's CUDA backend under the phase-capable reference
(1706x960 -> 2560x1440, native HIP network, eleven frames, RX 9070 XT):
- K render- and display-resolution motion vectors, HDR and LDR
- K game-supplied exposure and automatic exposure with any pre-exposure
and exposure scale (one residual: effective exposure exactly 2 or 4)
- K and M with the DLSS indicator's inverted-axis parameters
- M with any exposure settings (NGX ignores them for M)
K packages need the current compile_k.py (marker D4RO0003).
Also: HIP shared buffers are pooled across feature recreation (ROCm leaks
destroyed imports), hipnet.bin must match the preset, M-only games do not
load the K model, install_d4r_runtime.sh stages k, k-ldr, m, m-ldr with
hip/, the activation table has a generator (gen_activation_m.py), and
package_release.sh can bundle the engine's shaders (never its weights).

Implement NGX's Vulkan API over the existing CUDA backend. Compute shaders
pack the game's sampled images into buffers shared with CUDA (device-local
memory exported through the Wine bridge), and a device event in the game's
command buffer holds its queue until the result is written back, keeping
frame age at zero. DLSS reads inputs through pitch-linear textures and its
native output kernel writes the shared buffer directly; input and
completion waits are adaptive.
Make it work across engines: shared buffers are concurrent over every
compute-capable queue family (Indiana Jones records DLSS on async compute),
depth kept in an R32F colour image is accepted under a depth aspect, and the
extension-requirement query allows a null list. Spare buffer sets are
imported on the first frame and never while a frame is pending, since an
import can block on GPU work that is waiting for us; host staging covers any
shortfall.
Fix two exit hazards. A game quitting without NGX shutdown left the GPU
waiting on an event that only a killed thread would set, resetting the ring
10 s later: the bridge now runs a shim hook before teardown and skips all
CUDA destroy/sync calls once Wine is shutting the process down. The shim's
own entry point skips CRT static destructors at process termination, where
locks held by killed threads made the exit spin forever.
Add a Vulkan DLSS harness (dynamic, recreate, discard, invalid, exit,
compute-queue and in-flight modes), staging/depth probes, ABI/config tests,
and an OptiScaler settings overlay for Vulkan games.
- Add default-off PreferAccuracy for all native kernel families,
including RDNA4 FP8 variants.
- Restore intermediate FP8 quantization, per-MMA FP16 rounding,
denormal handling and NGX synchronization in accuracy mode.
- Select separately marked accuracy kernels and use a separate JIT
cache; reject mixed sets and never silently substitute fast kernels.
- Add a pinned GLIBC 2.41 build environment for ZLUDA/LLVM, the DLLs
and both kernel sets, with ABI checks and toolchain provenance.
- Support parallel target builds and pre-extracted PTX; correct
ROCm header paths and Clang-CL input handling.
- Bump to 0.1.3 and update release notes, documentation and tests.
Validation: 11 tests passed; all 912 kernels built; E/K/M GPU harness
runs completed with accuracy off/on. Packaged libraries loaded under
GLIBC 2.41 and require no GLIBC version newer than 2.38.
RTX image-quality parity remains unverified.
