v2.3.3

New

• Generic Luma for Unreal Engine games — RHI now supports Luma HDR for all DX11 Unreal Engine games, not just named titles. Every DX11 UE game in your library shows a Luma row alongside RenoDX. Game-specific Engine.ini tweaks and launch arguments from the Luma wiki are applied automatically on install. ReShade and DLSS are managed by RHI on all Luma games and kept up to date by Update All. Both RenoDX and Luma rows are always visible side by side — no toggle needed.

  • The Luma ⚙ cog has a TAA settings toggle; wiki-recommended TAA Engine.ini keys are applied on install when available.
  • Games supporting both DX11 and DX12 show the Luma row and get -dx11 set automatically on install.
  • Uninstalling Luma no longer removes ReShade or DLSS — all three are managed independently.
  • UE5 games use DX12 and don't show a Luma row by default. Set the Graphics API override to DirectX11 in Game Overrides first if needed.

• OptiScaler Nightly channel — switch between Stable and Nightly per game in the OptiScaler ⚙ cog. The cog has significantly expanded for Nightly installs:

  • Streamline/DLSS Enabler toggle deploys both together (Streamline is required for DLSS Enabler). Includes a Streamline Version picker to select which version to deploy per game.
  • Frame Generation settings: FG Input, FG Output, FG Nvngx Replacement, and HUD Fix — all write directly to the game's OptiScaler.ini and persist per game.
  • Additional Settings: DLSS SR Preset (J/K/L/M), DLSS RR Preset (D/E), Render Scale (Off + presets from 33% Ultra Perf to 100% DLAA), Disable Flip Metering, and Framerate Limit.
  • Engine.ini Settings (UE games only): Dilated Motion Vectors, FSR Crash Fix, FSR-FG Swapchain, and Upscaler Plugin — each writes the relevant Engine.ini keys immediately.
  • 4 user-configurable preset slots — save the current cog settings into a named slot and apply them to any game. Slot 1 defaults to a DLSS Enabler preset.
  • DLSS Enabler auto-updates in the background from the RHI GitHub releases.

• Shader Management — new global setting in Settings (replaces "Custom Shaders"): RHI Managed deploys built-in shader packs to all games, Custom uses your own shader directory, Off disables all shader deployment globally. Also available as a per-game override in Game Overrides.

• DXVK ⚙ cog — DXVK as Native — alongside Prefer DXGI Swapchain, a new Flags setting controls the Vulkan/OpenGL Present Method in the NVIDIA driver profile. Standard (0x000802A5 — Treat DXVK as Native) is the default and community-recommended value; Alternative (0x00080004) adds DirectFlip.

• Smooth Motion → Low Latency cascade — enabling Smooth Motion in Driver Profile Settings automatically sets Low Latency to Ultra. When Smooth Motion is turned off, Low Latency is restored to its previous value. Low Latency is locked while Smooth Motion is enabled.

• First-launch setup window — a setup screen now appears on a fresh install asking how you want ReShade managed, before the main window opens.

Changes

• DOF Fix moved to a new Recommended section, above the frame limiters.
• Graphics API badges now show DX11 and DX12 separately with individual override options in Game Overrides.
• The Launch executable section in Game Overrides now shows the currently detected exe name next to the heading.
• RenoDX, ReLimiter, and Display Commander can now be installed without ReShade being managed by RHI. Uncheck ReShade in the Global Update Inclusion settings to unlock installation of dependent components.
• The DXVK variant combo in Game Overrides saves your preference without auto-installing. The Install DXVK button appears when a variant is selected — press it when ready.
• Selecting a DXVK variant while DXVK is already installed uninstalls the old version first — reinstall when ready.
• Lilium HDR DXVK installs write Standard flags (0x000802A5) to the NVIDIA profile.
• Switching filter tabs now keeps the selected game highlighted if it appears in the new filter.
• The per-game Shaders and Addons dropdowns now correctly reflect the global Off/Custom setting instead of always showing Global.
• Simple View window is slightly taller.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed many UE4 DX12 games incorrectly showing as DX11.
• Fixed UE-Extended toggling off after a background refresh for games with both a named wiki mod and a user opt-in.
• Fixed startup scan slowness for games not on Steam or PCGamingWiki — live HTTP lookups are now cached so they only fire once per game.
• Fixed DLSS path cache invalidating every session for games with installation paths containing mixed separators or path casing differences (affected Nioh 3, AC Black Flag Resynced, and others).
• Fixed "Create NVIDIA Profile" registering the wrong executable for games that have multiple exe files — manifest launch exe overrides are now used when available.
• Fixed app update being silently aborted if the MOTD dialog was open when you clicked Update Now.
• Fixed DXVK "Don't show this warning again" checkbox not persisting across sessions.
• Fixed Display Commander update and download failing — updated the GitHub release tag.
• Fixed OptiScaler unnecessarily renaming ReShade to ReShade64.dll when there was no filename conflict.
• Fixed ReShade DLL naming overrides allowing the ReShade name to be set to the same filename OptiScaler is using.
• Fixed DLL naming override toggle not reverting OptiScaler's filename when disabled.
• Fixed DLL naming override "Don't show again" not persisting.
• Fixed Luma archives with newer format (no d3dcompiler_47.dll) being misidentified as addon archives.
• Fixed OptiScalerini marked read-only causing uninstall to abort halfway, leaving DLSS files and the OptiScaler folder behind.
• Fixed OptiScaler updates leaving stale files from the previous version.
• Fixed OptiScaler install creating spurious .dll.original backup files for files it deploys.
• Fixed OptiPatcher never receiving automatic updates.
• Fixed Engine.ini writers appending duplicate section headers — all writes now merge into the existing section.
• Fixed Graphics API override to DirectX11 on a UE5 game not showing the Luma row.
• Fixed the first-launch setup window appearing very small at high Windows display scaling.
• Fixed "No RenoDX mod available" button appearing clickable — it is now greyed out.
