Video Menu
The core DLSS options are now available under:

Video -> NVIDIA DLSS

Parameters are applied live without closing the menu. This is intended for testing with a transparent menu and the overlay enabled.

Main Menu Options

1. Max FPS
   - CVar: r_maxfps
   - Range: 0..1000
   - 0 = disabled.
   - This is the standard Q2RTX variable, exposed in the menu for DLSS/MFG/Reflex testing convenience.

2. NVIDIA DLSS
   - CVar: flt_dlss_enable
   - Enables or disables DLSS Super Resolution.

3. DLSS mode
   - CVar: flt_dlss_mode
   - Values:
   - Ultra Performance
   - Performance
   - Balanced
   - Quality
   - Custom
   - DLAA

4. DLSS custom scale
   - CVar: flt_dlss_custom_ratio
   - Range: 33..99
   - Used by Custom mode.

5. DLSS preset
   - CVar: flt_dlss_preset
   - Values:
   - recommended
   - F
   - J

9. DeepDVC intensity
   - CVar: flt_deepdvc_intensity
   - Range: 0..1.
   - Applied live on a loaded map.

10. DeepDVC saturation

    - Applied live on a loaded map.

11. DLSS Ray Reconstruction
    - CVar: flt_dlss_rr
    - When RR is active, the legacy denoiser is considered replaced.

12. DLSS RR preset
    - CVar: flt_dlss_rr_preset
    - Values:
    - default
    - D
    - E

13. DLSS MFG
    - CVar: flt_dlss_mfg
    - Values:
    - off
    - 2X
    - 3X

    - Values:
    - fixed
    - auto
    - dynamic

15. DLSS MFG variable max
    - CVar: flt_dlss_mfg_dynamic_max
    - Values:
    - auto
    - 2X
    - 3X
    - 4X
    - 5X
    - 6X
    - Used as the upper bound for Dynamic/Variable MFG.

16. DLSS MFG dynamic target
    - CVar: flt_dlss_mfg_dynamic_target_fps
    - Range: 0..480
    - 0 = auto from display refresh.

17. DLSS MFG queue mode
    - CVar: flt_dlss_mfg_queue_parallelism
    - Values:
    - default

    - Shows DLSS/RR/MFG/Reflex/DeepDVC state, presets, DLL versions, and render parameters.

Additional Video Options

Menu opacity
- CVar: cl_menu_alpha
- Range: 0..1
- Lets you adjust the menu background opacity while playing.

FPS counter
- CVar: scr_fps
- Values:
- off
- show FPS
- show FPS and resolution scale

Overlay
When r_debug_dlss_overlay 1 and/or scr_fps is enabled, the overlay is shown:
- during gameplay on a loaded map;
- above any open menu if a map is already loaded;
- not above menus before a game map is loaded.

Limitations and Notes
- MFG 5X/6X and Variable MFG depend on GPU, driver, and the capabilities reported by the current Streamline/NVIDIA runtime.
- 2X is primarily intended for RTX 40/50.
- 3X/4X/5X/6X are primarily intended for RTX 50 and only when reported as supported by the runtime.
- For serious MFG testing, HDR is best kept off.
- DeepDVC is intended for SDR.
- RR is stable enough for regular gameplay, but complex mirror, glass, and reflection scenes may still show residual artifacts.
- Ultra Quality is not exposed as a separate menu item; use Custom scale for manual near-equivalent scaling.
