Re: Let us update DLSS .dll by excluding it from EasyAntiCheat

@pecmeserp Alot of that is just wrong, don't really think you know what you're talking about. Many newly released games (and even games which still get live service updates) come with older DLSS versions and never bother updating them, probably because its too much of a hassle to test every new DLSS version and see how it affects all aspects of gameplay. DICE not updating DLSS in bf2042 is not any indication of any kind of loss of support.

Nvidia also does not bar any developers from updating DLSS, once a dev has access to it they can use whatever version they want and tweak it for their game. There is no need for "continued payment" to keep the feature in the game. Once its in there its in there for good.

Newer version of DLSS have been objectively proven to eliminate issues from older versions while retaining the same performance, and DLSS 2.5.1 is the best version so far out of all them. If DICE does not want to go to the trouble of testing new DLSS versions, all they need to, like many other games do (including live service ones), is to allow users to swap the DLSS .dll file for a newer version and still be able to use it in game. That way, DICE does not have test new versions, users can upgrade it whenever they want, and any issues that would arise from it are on the user, but 100% there would be no issues since this can be done in literally every game that uses DLSS and has never caused issues.

Now we have DLSS 2.5 according to DLL file. Once I've logged on today, I instantly observed the difference - the game is much sharper now.
That's a massive win for us - good job DICE/EA.

Just saw, nice!
Still can't .dll swap which would future proof it, but the update is very nice.
Although 2.5.0 still had dlss' terrible old sharpening implementation, which even nvidia says was bad and is why they disabled it in 2.5.1 (and why I wanted 2.5.1 specifically).
Hopefully its enabled too strongly in the game, or if it is they'll at least add a slider in the future.
It also still has the issue of greatly reducing motion blur strength or disabling it on objects all together like the hovercraft's back fan (and I think DOF as well)
