📋 About This Mod

Description

bg3fgvk adds NVIDIA DLSS Frame Generation (x2, x3 or x4) to Baldur's Gate 3 running in Vulkan mode. It is free and open source.

The game's own DLSS Super Resolution already produces the depth and motion vectors that frame generation needs; bg3fgvk hands those to NVIDIA Streamline, and the NVIDIA driver generates and paces the extra frames. There is no replacement upscaler, no menu of its own, no account and no key. A 30-35 fps scene at 1440p shows at roughly 120-140 fps with x4 on an RTX 50 card.

RTX 30 cards reach x2 with one extra community mod. See the RTX 30 section below.

It runs alongside the Baldur's Gate 3 Script Extender and mods that draw their UI through it, including Mod Configuration Menu. It also runs on Linux through Proton.

It is also compatible with DLSS 5 Neural Rendering through the OptiScaler DLSSNR fork. See the DLSS 5 section below.

Installation instructions

  • []Install Native Mod Loader if you do not have it: manual download, extract its bin folder over the game's bin folder, let it replace bink2w64.dll. Make sure bin\NativeMods\ exists.[/]

    []Extract the contents of the bg3fgvk zip into the game's bin folder (the one with bg3.exe). Merge the NativeMods folder when asked. You end up with bin\NativeMods\fgvk.dll and bin\NativeMods\Streamline\ (the NVIDIA Streamline runtime, leave it there).[/]

    []In the game's Video settings: renderer Vulkan, Upscaling set to DLSS (any quality, or DLAA). In Windows: Settings > System > Display > Graphics > Default graphics settings > Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling ON.[/]

Load a save. Frame generation turns itself on a couple of seconds into the world and suspends on loading screens and menus. Numpad toggles it, End cycles x2/x3/x4.

Settings live in bin\NativeMods\fgvk.ini (created on first launch). Logs: bin\fgvk.log and b

Uninstall: delete bin\NativeMods\fgvk.dll and bin\NativeMods\Streamline\.

Note: if DLSS disappears from the game's Video settings after a failed launch, just select it again.

RTX 30 series: x2 frame generation

Confirmed on an RTX 3070 Ti. This is real DLSS-G, not FSR.

NVIDIA's frame generation runtime ships its GPU kernels only for RTX 40 and RTX 50, so an RTX 30 needs RTX30MFG-Unlock to supply the missing piece. Install

bg3fgvk first (steps above), then:

  • []In bin\NativeMods\fgvk.ini set DLSSGFrames=1 (x2). Higher multipliers are not confirmed on these cards and can freeze the image.[/]

    []Put Ultimate ASI Loader (x64) in bin, renamed to version.dll. bg3.exe loads that name early enough. Do not name it bink2w64.dll, Native Mod Loader owns that one.[/]

    []From RTX30MFG-Unlock v1. 2. 2, copy RTX40MFG.asi and RTX40MFGCore.dll into bin, and merge the supplied global.ini next to the loader. The RTX40 prefix in the file names is expected, the project is a fork. RTX40MFG-UI.addon64 is its ReShade menu and is not needed.[/]

    []In the NVIDIA App: Graphics > Baldur's Gate 3 > DLSS Override > Frame Generation > "Use 3D application setting". An active override made one tester's card refuse frame generation outright.

Play for about half a minute in the world, then check bin\fgvk.log for a line like:

FG stats: 300 presents -> 600 frames displayed (x2. 00) status=0

Do not let another mod replace bin\NativeMods\Streamline\nvngx_dlssg.dll. Other RTX 30 frame generation mods work by substituting that file; with bg3fgvk it must stay as shipped, because it is what tells Streamline your card is supported.

Full guide, including what to do when it does not work and which other RTX 30 mods were tried and failed: docs/RTX30.md

No OptiScaler and no ReShade are needed for this. RTX 20 is untested; reports welcome on GitHub.
