Magpie VS Thyme

depending on the game, fsr(or dlss if you have the option) may be available in options to help you out, otherwise you could give a free option a go, such as Magpie

For games that won't go full screen, at least we have Magpie as a last resort. The experience won't be as seamless though...

Another thing you can try is playing the game in a borderless window at a lower resolution and using Magpie to upscale it to fullscreen. Magpie offers a variety of upscaling options that can produce a less blurry image than the bilinear interpolation that is typically done when upscaling by the GPU or display.

Configure VLC to play the video in an extra window with the same resolution as the video source and upscale the window to fit the screen. On Windows 10 the FSR upscaling can be achieved with Magpie. On the Steam Deck the system built-in FSR/CAS combination is used.

Something else that may also be of interest is Magpie. It's a tool to upscale windowed content into fullscreen with a variety of upscaling methods available.

also using enabled antialiasing in game settings (or even globally set in video driver) consume much less resources then rendering full size bigger resolution image for reducing aliasing. there are also such tools like Magpie (https://github.com/Blinue/Magpie/blob/main/README_EN.md) or Lossless Scaling tool from Steam. they enable FSR supersampling to any game on any GPU.

To everything that the community has said, I also want to add that No Man's Sky has FSR tech (the game runs at a lower resolution and it's upscaled). You can use Magpie or even better, Losless Scaling to create a similar effect in SC and win some extra frames :)

You can run the windows version via wine or proton. For a native versions, not yet but you might want to keep your eye on https://github.com/TheAssemblyArmada/Thyme though it is still a way off being portable to other platforms.

Ah bummer then that's a no go then. Maby one day https://github.com/TheAssemblyArmada/Thyme or https://github.com/OpenSAGE/OpenSAGE could offer a fix.

https://github.com/TheAssemblyArmada/Thyme builds both a DLL and injector.

Are you talking about https://github.com/TheAssemblyArmada/Thyme?

Due to the memory limits of 32bit apps, and the badly-managed memory of the SAGE game engine used in Generals/Zero Hour (memory leaks), it's most likely impossible without Out of Memory errors occurring. Thyme and OpenSage are open-source projects that are aimed to fix SAGE's faults, but I don't believe anything truly workable is available as of this reply.

We also have https://github.com/TheAssemblyArmada/Thyme in development which is being developed along the same lines as the recently released GTA reversing project and targets ZH. It's even playable as it hooks into the original game engine to fill in what is missing.

If this was posted on the back of the recent news about GTA being reimplemented, this project isn't really the same thing, https://github.com/TheAssemblyArmada/Thyme is more like the recently released GTA reversing project and targets Zero Hour. It's even playable as it hooks into the original game engine to fill in what is missing. OpenSAGE is a new engine in development intended to play the same content as SAGE.
