Lossless Scaling Adaptive Frame Generation! (In-Depth Review, Tests, and Showcases)

Hello! I got the chance to dive into the new AFG (Adaptive Frame Generation) feature of Lossless Scaling a bit early, so here’s another serving of my In-Depth Review. We’ll explore what AFG is capable of, when it shines the most, where it falls short, and what its biggest strengths are. And of course, don’t forget the side-dishes that includes showcases in a few games I’ve got installed on my humble system, and uh... editing gimmicks. Enjoy!

I have made a timestamp down below for your watching convenience, please do check it out!

This update is out by now on steam! so you don't have to go the beta branch to try it.
Other thing that's added that I didn't mention on the video (due to me using a preview build) and it's added later on is:

- Close to tray
- Removed herobrine

enjoy!

Lossless scaling is probably the best 5 bucks I've ever spent in my entire life

[Ecalypse]

I really like the quality of these lossless scaling videos of yours. They just have this polished feel I like.

[noodle]

Once again lossless scaling is proving itself to be the best money to value purchase I have ever made on PC

[BenCH]

4090 performance at $5, impossible without Lossless Scaling.

[SxrapH]

money well spent, works in any game or video application, i love it so much really

[mustafaaydilek]

The SOLE reason i could play Elden Ring with comfort, bought frames for almost 3 dollars.

[fauzanbri]

the developer of lossless scaling is definetly going to heaven

[jackfrost]

such a high quality editing, i thought i was watching a +100k subs channel.

[benlin]

Never have thought i would see the 60 / 30 🤣, thanks for the great video as always 🔥

[vulcand]

I bought this app a long time ago and omg it has progressed so far. It is magic.

[respectmathias]

I feel like the main reason to use adaptive is if you get sudden drops, let's say you do 60 - > 120 with fixed if there is a sudden drop it is much more noticeable.

I have been an avid pc gamer throughout my life. LSFG IMO is nothing short than a miracle, m flabbergasted by what this Little tool can do. Its literally like upgrading ur gpu cpu and ram when u r actually not. I hv been using this tool since last 1 year and man its becoming better by the minute. My pc is a potato literally in there is no fkn way i can evr dream of running any titles launched after 2023 but using this tool has helped me play every single latest game out there. Eg. Currently m playing kcd2. My pc can't even manage stable 24 fps at the lowest of low settings coz of bottleneck. This is where LSFG 3.0 came to rescue. I capped the frames to 22 (yes) in nvidia CP and applied 2x LSFG 3.0 and boom 44 fps throughout the game( except in areas like kuttenberg where it dips below 40 BLACK DEV IS A GENIUS.. KEEP IT UP

This is about the only software left that is keeping me on windows, wish it could be easily implemented on Linux and the steam deck.
A man can only wish.

[DogD]

I would be very surprised if you havent had a company reach out and pay you to do their patch notes. These are super well-paced and organized, provides perfect examples, and very well produced.

Small things like adding little movements to text, audio ducking for when narration, and keeping with the theme of LFG by using pixel fonts and style

Super well done, you've got your formula down perfectly IMO. I commend the attention to detail.

[Benzin]

This is amazing, you explained everything so clearly! And huge thanks to the dev, this truly is a game changer for handheld gaming.

[shreyameshram]

The production quality of this video is just insane

[queenbeeader]

Absolutely love Lossless, one of the best purchases I've made. Not just for the quality frame generation (made much better in recent updates), but also access to BCAS upscaler - it makes everything so much sharper and clearer, very much transformative on all fronts.

[fredericcalendini]

The production quality of this video is insane! Thank you!
