lsfg-vk aims to bring Lossless Scaling’s Frame Generation to Linux

Lossless Scaling is a very popular application for Windows, and the new lsfg-vk project aims to bring Lossless Scaling’s Frame Generation to Linux.

It’s a new project and very much in-development, so parts may not work as expected. The developer has been rapidly fixing issues as they come in.

The installation process is a bit involved though, so you need to be pretty Linux-comfortable right now to actually make use of it as it’s quite a manual process. You also need to have purchased Lossless Scaling on Steam, and it makes use of a legacy version.

Hopefully now it has been revealed, more Linux hackers can jump in and improve the process for everyone.

On the GitHub Wiki the developer posted up on how they actually achieved it, which is really interesting if you love the technical side of how people do things. Like the “Porting LSFG to native Vulkan” article that mentions the “psychological torture” the dev went through “to make this project work”.

You can find it on GitHub.
