FAQ >>>To delete the ShowDlssIndicator just delete the entry and it is gone. If you are having problems with the Nvidia App, as stated in the video you need to uninstall it…via control panel…then reinstall it. Just downloading the latest version on top of the old one does not always solve the problem. This resolved my - Unable to retrieve information - problem I was getting. To get the latest DLSS version download the updated version of DLSS Swapper. If all else fails simply bypass the Nvidia step and update with latest DLSS swapper and check active (K) with showdlssindicator.
I reinstalled the app, reinstalled the driver, restarted pc, refreshed settings and still can’t change DLSS override - model presets. I have 3080Ti.
Common sense really 😀👍
Is better to just put a zero on de showdlssindicator. This disables it but you can reemable when you need it
@@kkpriest5880 same, 3080ti.
I created 2 .reg files - One to Enable and one to Disable. Now, just a few mouse clicks to turn it on/off when changing DLSS versions and Presets.
I successfully followed the detailed instrucdtions from this video and installed DLSS 4 in MSFS 2024. The material was well-organized and very clearly presented. I like the voice of the presenter, who speaks softly in a teaching voice showing authority and knowledge. I thoroughly enjoyed this video, especially when it led me to sucessfully integrated DLSS4 with MSFS. A big thank you.
I have subscribed to this channel and look forward to other illuminating presentations.
Everything is a mess until Mark releases a video and makes it all clear. Then everything is fine again. Thanks Mark
“For the two people who got the 50 Series NVIDIA Graphics card…” 😂. You’re the best!!
Mark, you make these
Videos look easy. You’re an excellent content creator with time consuming editing skills. You have a gift for teaching and explaining and your sense of humor is brilliant. Still
Chuckling over: if you were one or the two in the world who got the 5090 😂
I wasn’t one of the two but,on 4 waiting lists for the ‘ Aorus Ice ‘ 🤞
Thanks for the info and hard work getting the settings and the video out for us .
A few content creators posting videos on this and all say its not been easy to figure it out 🤔😒
So thanks again for your efforts 👍
Mr. Mark, you always find a way to make things so much easier for us rookies in the sim. Every single time your videos come up, I know for a fact I am going to learn how to do/fix things the right way. Much respect sir
Tks a lot for this Mark. As usual your explanations are clear and concise. Take care
Thanks for the video Mark. Following your tutorial I got DLSS 4 working on my Nvidia 2070 and it made a significant difference as you said it would. Greatly appreciate your videos. Made my VR flights so much more enjoyable. Thank you.
Really the option doesnt even show up for me and I'm on a 3060
congratulations! Excellent work, I shared it with all the simers in Brazil. The best video about DLSS I've ever seen, without messing around, quick and practical.
Thankyou for this video. I was at my wits end and your time and efforts have helped me no end. DLSS4 is now working for mr. Thanks again.
Mark, you nailed it ❤
I was indeed not upgraded to DLSS4.
Years of following you always pay off
Thank you Mark
I was struggling with it but now and thanks to you, all is good! Great work!
Glad it helped!
Thank you looked at other tutorials and this one was by far the easiest to follow I haven’t done the reg edit part as i didn’t know if you could later remove that part, thanks for another great tutorial
Mark like always…the best explanation ever. Step by step, clear and straightforward. Thanks a lot for these informations🙏Breakfast now and than I will enjoy a perfect flightsim weekend. Wish you a great weekend too, happy flights 🛫✌️
Did not know the reg-trick. Thanks for this, fantastic.
Wow what a pain you had to go through Mark just to get DLSS4 to work. I hand it to ya Mark👍
Thanks! that's my Saturday morning set aside for this. Wish me luck!
Thank you for that detailed step for step tutorial! Very helpful!
Agreed. I had 'installed' the DLSS 4 last night thinking I had it completed. Though, I'm still not seeing these 'amazing' FPS numbers that others claim to have after installation. FYI, I'm on a RTX 3060 with i7 CPU if that matters.
Thank you Sir! Wanted to put out recently updating DLSS swapper just prior to the recent MSFS2024 update resulted in a startup crash. Uninstalling, reinstalling the game didn't make any difference. Resetting DLSS Swapper also didn't make any difference. Updating Nvidia drivers didn't help. The only thing that worked was switching to the latest DLSS from the nvidia app. Thanks for the video. Much appreciated.
Thanks for this, it reminded me to update the DLSS Swapper & that I still needed to use it along with Nvidia Profile Inspector. I finally got everything working by changing the Presets in the Global Profile as well as the MSFS 2020 Profile in the inspector. RTX 3080 but couldnt get the DLSS File from Github that would give me Frame Gen in the 30 series. But Ive only got that to work once I think & that was in the DLSS Tweaks file.
I tried a few different ways and it never saved. I tried your way and it worked instantly. Thanks Mark!
yet again, the sim community helped on this. If we have to wait for Asobo or Nvida for some help...... Than you dear Sir.
This helped me in Cyberpunk...Thank You Sir
Thank you Mark. Your videos are always so full of very useful information and are so well explained. It's like that old TV commercial used to say (at least here in the US), you explain things so well that "even a caveman can do it".
Thanks a lot buddy! In my case it was sufficient to install the latest driver and change DLSS Settings to "Latest" in the Nvidia App, as you described.
Thanks for the leg work, Mark.
Thank you, Mark. Your technique worked a treat.
RTX 4090 and MSFS 2020 here - DLSS 4 has been an amazing upgrade for me. I only fly in VR now, since buying my PIMAX Crystal last year. The 2020 sim in VR just runs faultless now. I have not even bothered to consider buying that 2024 rubbish. Thanks for your efforts. Good videos.
Okay, NOW I will install DLSS 4. Thanks also for the heads up on the potential install issues. That London City airport is where I do my shakedown flight for all of my VR graphics testing.
You can have the original frame generation if you use the "Frame Gen" mod if you do not have a 4 or 5 series card.
Works great!
Some very useful information here. Thank you very much 👏
Amazing! Worked for me thanks so much
Thank you very much for this video, Mark.
Thanks Mark, saved the day again!
Mark, you are a rock star!!
This is Rather exciting and of course another exciting video thank you
it really works! and improved the clarity in my VR. Now on my Fenix 321 in the window you can see scratches on the wing and flaps, and also more distinct cracks on twy and rwy. The shadows became more interesting and colors. The only BIG BUT. This is all suitable for VFR flights since my instruments turned into star-galactic flights and you can only see the first numbers of flight levels 88--, 89-- etc. Therefore, for now the old-fashioned way on TAA (Pico 4, 4090)
Bless you for doing this. You're saving people thousands of hours of pain with every video you do. It is appreciated.
As can be seen starting at 8:22, looking at the ground speed indication: DLSS 4 introduced horrible ghosting in glass cockpits. If you use glass cockpit aircraft with autopilot settings or for instrument flying, it is unbearable.
The solution is to either go back to TAA or use DLSS 3.8 and combine it with supersampling to get even clearer glass cockpits than with TAA and absolutely minimal ghosting.
Thanks Mark - informative as always! But the whole thing begs the question: why do we have to fumble around with external programs, edit the registry and almost perform digital black masses, only to get DLSS 4, if Nvidia wants to make that available to us anyways? I’m at a loss here…
If MSFS updated the default DLSS then all would be easy.
@@SimHangerFSWhich given they were listed as launch day titles you'd have hoped/expected them to have done.
Hey, Mark - I deleted the comment I made about things defaulting back to 3D etc. THANK you for clarification! Appreciate it!
Great video and very well explained but is it just me who admittedly is not that clued up on computers I find all this very frustrating why can’t they make things easier to download to pc especially in this day and age and with all this artificial intelligence everyone is banging on about
Totally agree everything is just bloody tweaking and going through root folders changing this and that
I agree totally…this really is unnecessary in this day & age, but hopefully this helps.
Thanks for a very helpful video. Like you, i assumed dlss swapper is sufficient to change dlss.
The good news is I'm now getting over 100fps on medium settings and the game clarity is heaps better.
The bad news is vr is still broken in the sim and I'm lucky if i can get 25fps
Thanks Mark for your video.
This was really helpful, thank you
You Sir are a legend great tutorial and totally game changing
you saved me i thought i was going crazy because i tried DLSS4 when it was still in the testing phase last week and when it's officially released it looked way worse, thanks
Your comment is why I’m pulling my hair also. I’ve been back and forth reinstalling after the final release and all I got was low LOD and stutters. My graphic card was suddenly maxing at 99% usage, when it was around 60% before the update. What is going on.
@@gervanwilliams1409same shutters far worse running 7800x3d 4090.
For me the DLSS settings in the Nvidia app are greyed out for MSFS 2020 and 2024. It say DLSS is not supported for both and I have a RTX 40 series graphics card.
same here, but I have a 2070s
You just need to uninstall and reinstall the nvidia app and it will work
@@richardPalmisano It worked, Thanks.
@@richardPalmisano Worked for me too! Thanx!
@@richardPalmisanoI’ve done that many times but only 2020 shows supported. 2024 still greyed out
it worked, does look better but only with frame generation off on those displays that used to be blurry as, side by side its actually better then taa can't believe it
I'm on a 3090 and the problem for me is that in Nvidia app everything related to DLSS Override is greyed out and unsupported. For sure I've last Nvidia app and last drivers and I've swapped with DLSS swapper (DLSS 310.2.1 and DLSS frame generation 310.2). Am I missing something? Thx
I found I didn't need to use the Swapper app with my rtx4090. All I did was use the Nvidia app to set it to latest for msfs 2020 (not using msfs2024 right now), scroll down to DLSS Override - model Preset and select latest. For me this selects latest for both frame gen and super resolution. Afterwards, checking with the Regedit key addon, it displayed the same as you've shown (Render Preset K, ....). So with the new driver it doesn't look like we need to worry about what's in our msfs2020 installation folder anymore. Thanks to the Nvidia app it will automatically use the Latest. After checking that I was actually using dlss4 I did as you suggested and deleted the regedit addon key. Cheers.
Thank you, this worked.
There’s a button in the latest version of DLLS Swapper which will turn on or off the info. No need to edit the registry.
Thx for that !
If you get the message that the option for DLSS Override is Unsupported, make sure to actually UNINSTALL the NVIDIA app and then REINSTALL it. When I got that message, the first time I simply double-clicked the EXE I downloaded to "reinstall" it, but that wasn't enough. After a true deinstall and reinstall, it worked. (EDIT: I just saw above where Mark indicated this, but in the event our messages are separated, I'll leave it here... but note that he did state that himself).
Tried this and deleted completely, reinstalled and I'm still getting "DLSS Override- Model Preset" greyed out and saying unsupported?
@@durkadirka same with 3080😭
For me the Nvidia App reinstall fixed it and now can modify. Thank you!
@ I have now also activated DLSS 4 using the Nvidia Profile Inspector.
Thanks a lot Mark 🙏
Thank you so much for the information on your video. One question only: What is the real difference between the DLSS mode DLAA and Quality?
Really would to love to try this but not only is my DLSS Override - Model Presets grayed out with no edit option, I cannot get the DLSS version as shown in the video.😖
Thanks Mark, that worked !
Thank you Mark👍
Hello Mark, Thank you for the fantastic job you have been doing.
You gave me so much motivation to take sim more seriously.
I've been saving since 2020 and didn't even bother to play MSFS 2020 because I wanted to make sure I get the right setup.
After 4 years waiting, back in December, I finally got all my setup based on yours.
I bought:
1) Dof Reality H3.
2) Prism 0932 - RTX 4080 Super, AMD Ryzen 9800X3D, 64GB RAM from Stormforce.
3) Pico 4 Ultra 256GB
4) VelocityOne Rudder
5) VelocityOne Flight
6) VelocityOne FlightDeck
I was wondering if you could help me or guide me setting up my setup to get the maximum of it with MSFS 2024 please.
Thanks for the video!
nice explanation, thanks
Super great video Mark in super details like we VR fly nerds like. Like 29 is all me. I'll be receiving a Nvidia RTX-4090 from one of those lucky RTX-5090 buyers ;-)
Thanks for this, I followed it to the tee and apparently it is now running in MSFS 20..However my frame rates have dropped to a miserable 16-24 fps and vr crashes after about 30 seconds shuttings down MSFS completely! I have tried changing DLSS between the various options from Auto to performance etc, but still the same. 😵💫
Thank you, Mark.
Hey all, I am new to this stuff. I have a 4070 Super Ti and it says 'Unsupported' in the Nvidia app under DLSS Override - Model Presets even after I do the DLSS Swapper. Anyone else have that issue?
Same
@@dagsy07 Just do a refresh on games in the app that should work
Just uninstall and install again the nvidia app, that works for me
@ thanks will give it a go
I can confirm that an uninstall and reinstall worked for me thank you all
Is that stock msfs 24 London ? Looks great !and photogrammetry off I assume so thx 🙏
Big thanks for the walkthrough. I didnt realise dlss 310.10 had already been superceded. One question - what is preset k?
It is a predefined set of Nvidia parameters, for the driver that enable features.
How on earth do you figure all this out Mark?! You’re amazing! Thank you.
If it only worked with a 3090 😔
DLSS Override works with 3090
Yes it works for series 3000 cards.
I have an exclamation mark over msfs 2020 and 2024. Did you get it work? I also have a 3090 card.
@ see pinned comment
Thanks for the update. I've run into a problem where the Nvidia app says "unable to retrieve settings, Try again later". I've reinstalled the Nvidia app and it's the latest and the driver is the latest and I've used SwapDLSS to make sure we have the latest version. I've rebooted the sytesm a couple times and taken both 2024 and the Nvidea app up and down a couple times. Will let it sit overnight and see what happens. Ala Donn, Tampa
See pinned comment.
Excellent video. Thanks, I was able to get this done with your help. One question, how can I remove the "ShowDlssIndicator" on the display? Do I have to remove it from RegEdit or is there an easier way that will allow me to display it periodically.
thanks Mark 😉
I assume you are running DLSS with the quality setting in 24...correct? While it does look nice in steam gauges such as the example you have shown here, try the Fenix with it...set it to DLSS and Ultra. It isn't even close to being clear on the altitude tape on the PFD. TAA is much better. Shame since DLSS does give a nice FPS boost.
Agreed, I only use commercial jets in MSFS such as Fenix, A330 etc. Yes with DLSS4 and Frame Gen I’m getting up to 100FPS, the experience is worse. I get more stutters and artefacts such as blurry numbers etc. Changing back to TAA only I only get about 45-50FPS but the overall experience is way smoother.
Set it to quality for best visuals.
@@SimHangerFS It is...and quality is still horrible in the Fenix. I made a vid about it...TAA is crystal clear...DLSS 4 quality is not. Just look at the altitude tape on the PFD...a blurry mess.
@@KingBobsKingdom what do you mean “Ultra” ?
@@MrNeilRoberts Emm....I meant DLSS Quality.
Hi ! Thank you for your work. I have heard of some dll fils to transfert in MSFS 2024 for the operation to be really complete. Do you have any information about that? Thanks again.
This is so confusing Mark, I selected use latest in the Nvidia App. I just fired up the sim (2020) and the DLSS display shows Render Preset K and DLSS V310.2.1 but in DLSS Swapper it still shows 3.8.10 DLSS & 3.8.1 FG (That is what I was running before)
With DLSS quality I am downscaling to 2K then back up to 4K, In the Fenix the displays are still quite blurry and the altitude tape is definitely blurry as I climb out. I never used DLSS Swapper to manually update the DLSS files.
I updated the driver and the app to the required versions, but the app still states that it cannot read the settings. Two uninstall/reinstall cycles did not change that.
Me too mate 🤔
@ I run both simulators and tried again and then the App saw the settings and everything worked fine.
Since the new driver 572.16 for my RTX4070, the temperature has risen solidly in my system. Where with the previous drivers I hardly heard anything, now the fans are constantly spinning heavily. The temperature now loots up to 80gr what before was around 50-60 with the same games (msfs2024 and War thunder)
No Indicator shown in Game, settings in registry and swapper options. I can not see the Indicator
Mark to the rescue! Time and time again....thank you
I did follow your steps, and yet in the Nvidia app does not allow me to apply those changes it automatically goes back to 3D application settings(Default)
Thank you!
Hi, thx for this video. Could you make a video for dcs? What fps do you get with msfs2024 and dcs.
Game Changer is an overused phrase but not in this case... DLSS 4 as has given my 4090 a new life !! I have been able to crank up the resolution on my Pimax and achieve 45fps with the PMDG 737
It has worked really well for me also, crisp image and very smooth. My sim has never worked so well.😀😀
For some reason whatever I do (re-installed Nvidia EVERYTHING several times), in the Nvidia graphics settings, those 3 DLSS options are always grey for FS2024 while I can do the "latest" for the FS2020 preset. Any idea what can I do to enable these DLSS preset setting available?
dlss override won't let me save it in latest mode..I have the updated app, updated dlss version via dlss swapper? running 4090 rtx any help Please?
Hi Mark greetings from Canada i followed exactly your steps on my 4070Ti Nvidia card but I still ended with the J . Any recommendation ? thanks a lot
@@elguindy download the new DLSS swapper file.
Hi Mark is this only for Virtual Reality or will it help with Monitor gameplay ?
i am not being able to see the preset that is install while in the sim. Mine reads only in a line "Nvidia DLSSG v310.2.0..." i think i should be reading "Render Preset:C DLSSv3 v310.2.1..."
I was really happy using TAA for my 4080 gpu
Thanks for the video. I see Dlss 3 ? Where is dlss 4?
excellent
Strange - I only have DLSS version 310.1 in DLSS Swapper - not 310.2.1
Uninstall swapper and reinstall it.
The use different dlss option that’s different isn’t available in my nvidea app. Reinstalled messed around with other settings but computer still says no 😢
thank you!
Why is all this necessary when DLSS 4 comes packaged in the new driver?
I play the game via Gamepass, I don't see all the graphics options in the NVidia app, it just says unable to retrieve settings (just shows some basic settings).. is that the result of the game pass installation, and if so, is there something else I can do?
Mark.... please tell me how you get the bright cockpit without blowing out the scenery? The eye adaptation in MSFS is too much. I've been trying to solve this for a while. Thanks:)
In default aircraft most have a brownish light reflection on the windows. This is a sim bug.
Mark, the process you outline works for MSFS 2020 but in MSFS 2024 all three options in the NVidia app are "ghosted" and I can't change them. I have a 3090 in my computer. I also use the Quest 3 with Virtual Desktop. I was able to set up the recent DSLL V4 driver using the process outlined by IslandSimPilot but can't follow your process. Any ideas?
hi using quest 3 and vdesk top , when starting flight i get a big black square on the screen it goes when i enter then exit settings , recent issue , anyone else
