New Features

  1. Completely rewritten new rendering engine, MagpieFX v2, see Custom Effects for syntax
  2. Implements in-game OSD, currently can only be used to measure performance, will be used to change effect parameters at runtime in the future. The default shortcut Ctrl+Alt+D can be changed in the settings.
  3. Drag the FPS window to adjust its position, right click on the FPS to adjust the style Provide optional frame rate display position  #341
  4. The cursor function has been enhanced so that the cursor can now be moved naturally over other windows, such as the Start Menu, Xbox Game Bar and Alt+Tab windows
  5. The inlineParams parameter can be specified for presets in ScaleModels.json to enable inline parameters. This can improve the performance of some effects slightly, but will require recompiling the effect each time a parameter is changed.

Example:

{
    "effect": "FSR_RCAS",
    "sharpness": 0.87,
    "inlineParams": true
}
  1. "Limit Cursor in 3D Games" has been upgraded to "3D Game Mode", which when enabled will be optimized for 3D games, and in-game overlays will behave differently.
  2. Adjusted zoom mode presets, removed RAVU, Lanczos no longer includes a sharpening step.
