I don’t doubt for a second games like wow could have a native DLSS 5 integration at some point. https://youtu.be/n1Omz_qUxsE
Do you guys think it would be possible to integrate it to FFXI?

Nobody wants to see every wrinkle of Shantotto at 50 and realize the harsh truth that they're basically at that point themselves now.

Jokes aside, there likely will not be native support due to XI's aqing code, but I wouldn't be surprised if someone figured a way out to force it to work for the handful of people that are smaller than the amount of people that can clear master trials in XI these days.

Reshade might support it at some point.

Reshade has a lot of effects you can add. Not all of them look good.

There are tools already that can get the existing DLSS5 libraries working with FFXI in a roundabout way.

You can lookup DLSS 5 Feeder + Reshade + DgVoodoo2, and you can get it to work if you get XI running in DX11.

This was like 2 weeks ago, might be easier methods now.

Spoilers: It doesn't work. XI doesn't have enough detail in the models/textures for the neural rendering to do anything with it, so you just get very slight lightning adjustments + very slight eye changes, at the expense of everything else (including the UX) getting blurred a bit.

So the dream of semi-photo realistic XI is going to have to wait for someone to cook up an Unreal Engine custom client or something with the FFXIV models.
