To use FSR 4.1 in Enshrouded with an AMD GPU, install OptiScaler in the folder containing enshrouded.exe, run its setup script with the winmm.dll injection method, enable Nvidia spoofing, and then select DLSS in the game before switching the active upscaler to FSR 3.X/4 w/Dx12 through the in-game OptiScaler menu. The w/Dx12 option is required for this setup.
Install OptiScaler
- Download a recent OptiScaler release from the developer's official GitHub release page. Version
0.9.4or newer is recommended. - In Steam, open Enshrouded's local files by right-clicking the game, choosing
Manage, and selectingBrowse local files. - Extract every file from the OptiScaler ZIP archive directly into the folder that contains
enshrouded.exe. Do not place the files in a separate subfolder.
Configure the injection and GPU settings
- Open the Enshrouded installation folder and run
setup_windows.bat. - When the setup window asks for an injection method, enter
2to usewinmm.dll. - Choose your graphics hardware type: select AMD for an AMD GPU, or Intel if that is the applicable hardware option.
- When setup asks about spoofing, enable Nvidia spoofing by choosing
Yes, entering1, and pressing Enter. This is needed because the game normally hides its DLSS option from AMD users.
Older RX cards
If FSR 4 does not appear after setup, open OptiScaler.ini in the game folder. Find Fsr4Update. If it is set to false or Auto, change it to:
Fsr4Update=true
Activate FSR in Enshrouded
- Start Enshrouded and open
Settings > Graphics. - For the anti-aliasing or upscaling option, choose
DLSS, not the game's nativeFSRoption. OptiScaler needs the DLSS path for this replacement. - Select a quality preset, such as
Quality, then load a save and enter the game world. The OptiScaler menu is not available from the main menu. - While controlling your character in the world, press
Insertto open the OptiScaler overlay. - In the upper-left
Upscalerssection, open the algorithm list and chooseFSR 3.X/4 w/Dx12. - Press
Change Upscaler, then select the desired preset. The default preset is described asDefault - Preset 1, corresponding to Quality or Ultra Quality; lower-quality presets produce a less clear image. - At the bottom of the overlay, press the blue
Save Settingsbutton. PressInsertagain to close the menu.
Important selection check
Do not select a similarly named option without w/Dx12. Enshrouded uses Vulkan, so this DX12 bridge variant is the required choice in the supplied setup. If the game still shows only the original options, recheck that all archive files were extracted beside enshrouded.exe, that setup used injection method 2, that Nvidia spoofing was enabled, and that the replacement was selected after entering a saved game.
