## What it is
A collection of performance-oriented mods for VR games, delivered as a DLL injected next to a game executable. It provides upscaling (AMD FSR, NIS, CAS) and fixed foveated rendering via Variable Rate Shading for Direct3D 11 games using Oculus or OpenVR runtimes.

## Use cases
- boost fps in vr games by rendering at lower resolution and upscaling
- apply amd fsr or nis upscaling to a vr game
- enable fixed foveated rendering on nvidia rtx gpus
- sharpen vr game image with contrast adaptive sharpening
- improve vr performance without buying new hardware
- mod an unreal engine vr game for better performance

## When to choose
- you play VR games on Windows with Direct3D 11 and want more performance
- you have an NVIDIA RTX or GTX 16xx card and want variable rate shading foveated rendering
- you want per-game configurable upscaling via a simple YAML config

## When to avoid
- your game uses Vulkan, DirectX 12, or OpenGL instead of D3D11
- you are not comfortable manually extracting DLLs and editing config files
- you need guaranteed compatibility, since mods may break with anti-cheat or game updates
