Elden Ring Gets Free AMD FSR 3 Frame Generation Mod
It's been a year and a half since PureDark released his Elden Ring NVIDIA DLSS 3 Frame Generation mod. The paid mod allowed GeForce RTX 40 Series owners a significant performance boost in the notoriously badly optimized game developed by FromSoftware.

This mod supports AMD FSR 3 Super Resolution and Frame Generation, NVIDIA DLSS Super Resolution and DLAA, and even Intel XeSS. The modder shared a few caveats: this is mutually exclusive with their previous ERSS2 mod (which did not support Frame Generation); the Frame Generation feature is not compatible with ReShade; and, most importantly, you can't play online on official servers with this mod enabled.
Here's the recommended installation method for this Elden Ring AMD FSR 3 mod:
- Extract the attached file's content into the ELDEN RING\Game\ directory (including ERSS-FG.dll, dxgi.dll and the folder ERSS2; the file ERSSReShadeStub.addon can be removed).
- Disable Easy Anti-Cheat, either by putting cmd /c start eldenring.exe & rem %command% in launch options in Steam or by using some other tool.
- For Steam Deck (Linux) users: cmd=(%command%); cmd[-1]="eldenring.exe"; WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dinput8=n,b;dxgi=n,b" "${cmd[@]}"
- Set Resolution in the game's Graphics menu to .r target resolution (i.e. your monitor's resolution)
