lsfg-vk aims to bring Lossless Scaling's Frame Generation to Linux
Lossless Scaling is a very popular application for Windows, and the new lsfg-vk project aims to bring Lossless Scaling's Frame Generation to Linux.
Here's the installation instructions, although the build instructions are not going to work on Steam Deck by default due to it's locked file system. I'll probably try it on my desktop later and see if I can get it to work.
Ideally I think this project could later be installed through a decky plugin, similar to decky framegen.
Edit: It's weird, running it on my desktop it keeps giving an error about failing to create a pipeline. Running it with sudo privileges doesn't give the error, but seemingly doesn't do anything. I don't really have any experience with graphics so I'm not sure what's going wrong.
But as far as I understand, it's designed to be a Vulkan layer. I'm pretty sure they can be installed under the user's home directory at ~/.local and picked up by Mesa automatically
Hooooly shit you weren't kidding....I will wait for decky plugin in a few weeks
Lossless scaling worked wonders for me on windows before I upgrades to a 4080.
I only game Linux now, so I hope this becomes an option
Nice, will need to try this out when I have a sec.
