[Feature request] Manually add games folders
For non Steam games, browsing the game .exe would be nice.
Hey @montybet, Do you mean so you can add your game that you got from the Epic Game store (or any place that isn't steam), or is there some games that are just installed into random places.
If you could provide any examples that would be great so I can work on that.
It does get complicated adding a random folder, it means we need to have a way for the user to say this directory is Doom, and potentially also have them add an image for it.
I would use it to add RDR2 from Rockstar Social Club or Cyberpunk 2077 from GOG Galaxy.
Well, I don't know how many platforms have DLSS compatible games (i.e. I don't think battle.net has any) but at leat it would be nice that the app woul read default Steam, GOG and Epic folders from al installed drives.
I would also love a method to give this program the dlss-file location or the .exe location. Whatever it will be.
In my case for example for these games:
- Cyberpunk 2077 (GOG)
- Watchdogs Legion (Ubisoft Connect)
- COD Cold War (Battle.NET)
- Red Dead Redemption 2 (Random place ;) )

Similar issue to #24
I do have the same request. I uninstalled it because it doesn't see 80% of my games. Actually, it only sees Steam games. Any game that I installed via an installer (the old school way :) doesn't show up. We could have the option to just go and pickup an .exe, like Steam does for non-steam games. It doesn't matter if I have a cover, this is purely cosmetic.
Are you able to give an example of a game installed the old school way that supports DLSS so I can add it to my list to test with?
any GOG installer for example (Cyberpunk 2077)
Oh? I thought games were downloaded with GoG Galaxy launcher. I will have to look into this some more as I don't use GoG. Thanks for pointing that out.
Any game bought on gog can be either downloaded using GOG galaxy or download an installer from the site and installed manually. Used for installing games on PC without internet connection for example. Or to stash your buyed games and keep them even if the apocalypse comes XD
Hey Brad great work! But unfortunately I save my steam games on different drive and none of my games are being detected. Is there any way to resolve this? I couldn't find solution.
Hey @ptirth , happy to help, can you make a separate issue so we can go through steps and see what is wrong over there so we can keep this thread on topic
How about a barebones initial version of this that makes you point to a nvngx_dlss.dll and then add a name for the "game". A blank picture would be an okay start as well. Could just say "Custom" or spell out the name you entered.
Would be a great band-aid fix for all those games that don't show up automatically.
Not to mention give one the flexibility to swap out dlss .dlls on anything from dev builds to other software using DLSS.
@FIocker , thats the plan (sorry for late reply)
-
- button to manually add game
- Browse to game location
- Enter game name (default the folder name)
- Optionally add an image to keep things looking nice.
It does add some issues with future plans such as being able to launch the game directly from DLSS Swapper so that will require extra work.
This feature would be great as games with DLSS support added via mods are now starting to emerge (PureDark's Skyrim DLSS mod, Praydog+PureDark's RE Engine DLSS support)
