ANR FG supports NVIDIA GeForce RTX 20, 30, 40 and 50 series and GTX 16 series, AMD Radeon RX 5000 through 9000 series plus Steam Deck, and Intel Arc A and B series, on Windows 10 and 11 and on Linux and SteamOS via Proton. The package installs through install.cmd on Windows or install.sh on Linux and Steam Deck, and Apex Compute says source code is coming soon while OptiScaler, which the addon package builds on, remains GPL-3.0.", "body_md": "[Apex Neural Rendering](https://apexcompute.com/neural-rendering) by [Apex Compute](https://apexcompute.com).\n\n- **ANR FG** : frame generation. In beta.\n- **ANR SR** : super resolution (upscaling). Beta soon.\n- **ANR RR** : ray reconstruction (denoising for ray tracing). Beta soon.\n- **Source code** : coming soon.\n\n1. Download a package from [Releases](https://github.com/apex-compute/ANR/releases) :\n  - `anr-fg-full` : for games without OptiScaler.\n  - `anr-fg-addon` : for games that already use[OptiScaler](https://github.com/optiscaler/OptiScaler) .\n2. Close the game, extract the package and run the installer with the folder of the game's `.exe` :\n  - Windows: `install.cmd`\n  - Linux and Steam Deck (Proton): `sh install.sh \"<folder>\"` , then set the game's launch options to the line it\nprints:`WINEDLLOVERRIDES=\"dxgi=n,b\" %command%` , or`winmm=n,b` in Vulkan games\n3. Windows: \n4. In the game, turn on frame generation (the NVIDIA option where the game offers several).\n\nTo uninstall, run `uninstall.cmd` or `sh uninstall.sh` with the same folder.\n\n- NVIDIA GeForce RTX 20, 30, 40 and 50 series, and GTX 16 series\n- AMD Radeon RX 5000, 6000, 7000 and 9000 series, and Steam Deck\n- Intel Arc A and B series\n\nOn Windows 10 and 11, and on Linux and SteamOS with Proton.\n\nPlease post them as [issues](https://github.com/apex-compute/ANR/issues/new/choose):\n\n- **Performance results** : run the test kit from the release and attach its result file.\n- **Problems** : the game, GPU and driver, operating system, settings and what you saw, with the newest`nr_fg-*.log` from under the game's`OptiScaler/custom/Apex Neural Rendering FG` folder.\n\nOptiScaler is GPL-3.0; its source for each release is attached to the release.\n\n```\n@software{apex_neural_rendering,\n  author = {{Apex Compute}},\n  title  = {Apex Neural Rendering (ANR)},\n  year   = {2026},\n  url    = {https://github.com/apex-compute/ANR},\n  note   = {https://apexcompute.com/neural-rendering}\n}\n```\n\n", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/open-dlss-alternative-claims-better-performance-and-quality-with-amd-support", "canonical_source": "https://github.com/apex-compute/ANR", "published_at": "2026-11-12 05:48:23+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-11-12 06:22:30.059347+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-products", "generative-ai", "ai-tools"], "entities": ["Apex Compute", "Apex Neural Rendering", "ANR FG", "ANR SR", "ANR RR", "OptiScaler", "NVIDIA", "AMD"], "also_reported_by": [], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/open-dlss-alternative-claims-better-performance-and-quality-with-amd-support", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/open-dlss-alternative-claims-better-performance-and-quality-with-amd-support.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/open-dlss-alternative-claims-better-performance-and-quality-with-amd-support.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/open-dlss-alternative-claims-better-performance-and-quality-with-amd-support.jsonld"}}
