FSR in Gamescope doesn't work

When using HGL or even when launching it from the command line, gamescope won't be able to display anything if I enable FSR scaling. When I try from Bottles it won't even launch anything saying that my card doesn't support vulkan. I've had this issue for a few months, but I've started gaming more lately and would like to be able to use FSR again. System specs... CPU: AMD R7 5700G GPU: AMD RX 6750 XTX RAM: 64GB

I havent been able to reproduce that issue recently. (though lately I only play in steam game mode and not on desktop)I just tried

gamescope -w 2560 -h 1440 -W 3840 -H 2160 -r 120 -o 30 -f  -F fsr -S auto --fsr-sharpness 2  -- vkcube

gamescope -w 2560 -h 1440 -W 3840 -H 2160 -r 120 -o 30 -f  -F fsr -S auto --fsr-sharpness 2  -- vkcube

and it works fine. you can also try the SDL backend

--backend sdl

--backend sdl

as this only happend on the wayland backend

yeah, that seems to work for now. I mostly wanted to use it with the steam client though, and that doesn't work with the sdl backend. I can still get it to work with each game individually, so good enough I guess.

gamescope -w 2560 -h 1440 -W 3840 -H 2160 -r 120 -o 30 -f -e -F fsr -S auto --fsr-sharpness 2 --backend sdl --mangoapp -- steam

gamescope -w 2560 -h 1440 -W 3840 -H 2160 -r 120 -o 30 -f -e -F fsr -S auto --fsr-sharpness 2 --backend sdl --mangoapp -- steam

is what I used to use to launch steam insede of gamescope nested inside KDE then any games I ran would upscale with fsr

weird, when I tried it, it didn't launch properly. I used different settings though, I'll test it out a bit more later tonight

Keep in mind this was back when I was using Garuda never tried running steam like this in bazzite.

t9999clintOP•3mo ago

-e was the option I needed. It's working with the --backend sdl flag lol, just noticed it's you on the github page. Sorry for the pointless reply

zany130•3mo ago

No worries glad you got it working I need to test an actual game with gamesope on desktop mode to see if I can't reproduce the issue So far I haven't just running vkcube in a terminal

Make sure that it's using fsr and is scaled up, have it running in a window and then maximize it.
