1

Issue Type (Required):

Visual

Issue Description (Required):

Certain weapons’ attack animations (primarily thrusting towards center of screen) cause bizarre visual artifacts when FSR3.1 frame generation is turned on.
This is not helped by turning v-sync on in video settings.
These include but may not be limited to:

  • Duelling sword mk4’s heavy1
  • Duelling sword mk2’s heavy1
  • Sapper shovel mk1’s special action
  • Assault chainsword mk4’s push attack
  • “Devil’s claw” sword mk7’s push attack
  • Heavy sword mk9’s push attack
  • Heavy sword mk7’s push attack
  • Relic blade mk10’s sprinting heavy attack
  • Relic blade mk2’s sprinting heavy attack
  • Force sword mk2’s light3
  • Force sword mk4’s light1 and heavy2
  • Force greatsword mk8’s push attack follow up thrust (both light and heavy)
  • Force greatsword mk6’s heavy2

In addition, all weapons have notable visual artifacts on the edge of screen (right side) when turning character’s view around.

Steps to Reproduce (Required):

  1. equip any of the listed weapons
  2. load into psykhanium, turn on FSR3.1 frame generation in video settings
  3. perform the listed attacks for said weapons
  4. observe visual artifacts on screen
  5. turn view around (both left and right)
  6. observe visual artifacts on edge of screen

You are better off using DLSS3 to FSR3 mod if you have Nvidia 2 or 3 series.

The visual artifact issues still exist with that mod, so I figured it’s best to report here

I’m using the DLSS Tweaks version with the E preset and I don’t experience any. Let me know if you can’t get it to work.

I just tried it but it didn’t seem to do anything, not sure what’s going on

You have to have DLSS Tweaks also installed and run the registry file for it all to work. And set the DLSS Preset to E

I tried but it still has the same flickering problems, I don’t think it’s related to DLSS presets, more of a frame gen problem (it only occurs when frame gen is turned on).
