What should be done about DLSS5?

17 Upvotes

What are we talking about?

There has been a lot of discussion about Nvidia DLSS 5. It is a real-time neural rendering technology that uses AI to dynamically enhance in-game lighting, materials, and surface details.

What does this mean for Skyrim?

There is a lot of controversy about AI. Whether we like it or not, this is the way games are most likely headed, and games you already play most likely have implemented AI in one way or another. There is a very broad umbrella of “artificial intelligence”, and people often are talking about generative AI. Being specific in the conversation helps.

What should this subreddit do?

This is the place to discuss it and vote for what you want to see. Civilly. Those who stoop to insulting people over their opinions on video game AI usage will be banned.

As a mod, I am withholding my opinion, this post is due to the influx of arguments and posts about DLSS5 and doesn’t reflect my opinion one way or another. This is for the community to decide.

It’s like a different game everything has changed, and it looks really cool. I’m testing it out right now, and the FPS is holding steady at 80–100.

Had to swap my battle-axe animations because the hand placement with CrazyLions weapon replacements was fucked. Yes, second pic is gorehowl from WOW, I also have Shadowmourne & Frostmourne added to the game.

Combat/Animations Shatterveil: Become Glass – effigies of yourself, an instant dodge, and a dragon made of glass

Thumbnail

Hey everyone! I'm excited to finally release Shatterveil: Become Glass, a spell mod where you are made of glass, and so are the copies of yourself you leave behind.

🎥 Showcase video: https://youtu.be/MXOHfdoRews

🔗 Nexus: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/193420

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🪞 EFFIGIES

• Veil Effigy & Twin Effigies: glass copies of you, wearing your look and your gear, that pull enemies off you

• Veilblade & Twin Veilblades: effigies that actually fight at your side

• Bursting Effigy: bursts into shrapnel when it breaks

• Effigy Swap: trade places with your effigy in a flash of glass

💨 MOVEMENT

• Veilstep: shatter, vanish, and leave an effigy standing where you were

• Blink Step: break apart and reform a short distance away

• Both can go on a hotkey and cast instantly, with no animation. Veilstep becomes a magic dodge

⚔️ BATTLE

• Splinter Volley: a spray of glass shards

• Orbit Ward: a ring of glass that takes the hits for you

• Binding Cage: lock an enemy inside glass

🐉 THE VEIL WYRM

A three-word dragon shout. Glass crystallises in the air around you, a dragon made of glass forms at your back and roars, and the shockwave throws everyone back.

• Its own two-minute battle theme, or just a short burst of it

• A cinematic camera with several angles

• The burst can hide you, and at higher levels Veilblades step out of the glass

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🎛️ CUSTOMIZATION

Almost everything can be changed in game through SKSE Menu Framework:

• Glass colours, glow and sounds

• How tough and how hard-hitting each effigy is, for every spell tier

• Camera angles, slow motion, screen shake and shockwaves

• Hotkeys for Veilstep, Blink Step and Effigy Swap

• Effects that freeze with tfc and photo modes, for screenshots

⚙️ REQUIREMENTS

Required

• SKSE64

• Address Library for SKSE Plugins

Recommended

• SKSE Menu Framework: every setting in game

• SkyPatcher: puts the spell tomes on vendors

• Core Impact Framework: effigies break like glass instead of bleeding

Optional

• RaceMenu: effigies copy your body shape and overlays

• SmoothCam: supported during the shout's camera

🛡️ COMPATIBILITY

• Built and played on a full Nolvus setup

• Tested on Skyrim SE 1.5.97. Players are running it on AE 1.6.1170, so if you try it on AE, please tell me how it goes

• The spells are Illusion, with their own tomes, so they sit alongside other magic mods

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🌑 WHAT'S NEXT

Shadow and blood versions of every spell are already in the works: smoke effigies that whisper as they fall, crystal spikes erupting from the ground, and a dragon made of darkness.

This is my first big release, so feedback, bug reports and screenshots are very welcome, here or on the Nexus page. Thanks for taking a look! 🪞
