• RTX Encore (experimental): on an RTX 20, 30 or 40 in a 64-bit DirectX 11/12/Vulkan game with DLSS of its own, the setup list now ends with SilyNoMeta's RTX Encore, with NVIDIA's plain 310.8.0 neural rendering model (checked against its SHA-256). It refuses to install beside ReShade, OptiScaler or AIO. Checked on an RTX 4090 in Gears of War: E-Day: install, neural rendering and super resolution active, Remove, and the default setup restored byte for byte.
• AMD Radeon in Gears of War: E-Day: the menus and play flickered with the AMDNR build. The cause was OptiScaler reporting the Radeon as an RTX 4090, which it does by default for AMD. The install now turns that off for this game only ([Spoofing] Dxgi=false), and the neural pass keeps running. Measured on an RX 9070 XT on a still menu: the changed pixels per frame fell from 28% / 55% / 12% (card, text, button bar) to 0.05–10% / 4–5% / 0.06–1.3%, and a tester played with no flicker. Other games keep OptiScaler's default.
