Issue with REF Framework: TemporalUpscaler Not Working! (Help Needed)
Hi everyone,
I'm facing an issue with the REF Framework when trying to use TemporalUpscaler. The error message I’m getting says:
Backend is not loaded. TemporalUpscaler will not work. Make sure you’ve downloaded UpscalerBasePlugin (PDPerfPlugin.dll) and the corresponding DLLs for your preferred upscaler (DLSS/FSR2/XeSS).
I’ve ensured that all the required files are present in the same folder, including:
-PDPerfPlugin.dll -ffx_fsr3_x64.dll and ffx_fsr3upscaler_x64.dll (for FSR) -nvngx_dlss.dll (for DLSS)
However, the framework doesn’t seem to recognize them.
What I’ve Tried So Far:
1-Verified that the files are in the correct folder. 2-Installed all necessary libraries like DirectX and Visual C++ Redistributable. 3-Used the latest version of the REF Framework.
Any Ideas What Might Be Causing This?
-Is there a configuration file I need to edit? -Could this be related to version compatibility?
I’d really appreciate your help in resolving this issue. Thanks in advance! 😊
Exact same problem here. Have used REFramework before, see the option appear ingame, PDPerfPlugin.dll is in the correct spot, tells me it's missing.
Using the latest builds of both.
I'm having the exact same issue. I tried using the latest and older versions of REFramework, UpscalerBasePlugin and of DLSS. I even deleted the mod files to then copied and pasted them in the game directory again (read that fixed it for someone in Reddit), but still getting the same effin message.
Reading the installation instructions of the UpscalerBasePlugin on Nexusmods, PureDark says that you have to paste the dll of the upscaler in the UpscalerBasePlugin folder. I have no idea where said folder is, though. I tried creating a folder with that name in the game directory and putting a copy of the dlss dll file in there but that didn't work.
Not sure what else to do at this point. Will have to play with FSR2 in the meantime, I guess.
I think I found the solution. You have to download version 1.1.2 of UpscalerBasePlugin. Perhaps this old version will work because Reframework does not support a newer version. Download link: https://www.nexusmods.com/site/mods/502?tab=files And make sure to download the latest version of NVIDIA DLSS DLL Download link: https://www.techpowerup.com/download/nvidia-dlss-dll/ and download the latest version of Reframework that supports pd-Upscaler.

Game crashing after launching
Creo que encontré la solución. Tienes que descargar la versión 1.1.2 de UpscalerBasePlugin. Tal vez esta versión anterior funcione porque Reframework no admite una versión más reciente.

¡¡Eres un genio, TY!! All I had to do was replace this file: https://github.com/praydog/REFramework/actions/runs/11770014195
Im still having the issue rtx 3060, it boots with just the UpscalerBasePlugin but it just says Backend is not loaded, TemporalUpscaler will not work. Make sure youve downloaded UpscalerBasePlugin (PDPerfPlugin.dll) nd the corresponding DLLs for your preferred upscale(s) (DLSS/FSR2/XeSS)
If i put the dlss file in it crashes and closes on boot. Ive tried experimenting with different versions same result.

You've downloaded the wrong UpscalerBasePlugin version. It's not the first download button, it's misleading, I know...
I've got the correct version installed i even downloaded it again to make sure but same result i see this screen for 4 seconds then it just closes
all instructions are currently not working. I was sorting through different files, I managed to make it work. If anyone needs files that are definitely working at the moment, I will send the whole list to your email or anywhere. But I don't know where to upload them. In general, modders do everything very crookedly, it is not compatible with each other, although it was created exactly for this. Very strange.

cant make it work with re4, can you help me?
все инструкции на данный момент не работают. Я перебирал разные файлы, мне удалось заставить это работать. Если кому-то нужны файлы, которые точно работают на данный момент, я отправлю весь список на почту или куда-либо. Но я не знаю, куда их выложить. В общем, моддеры делают все очень криво, оно не совместимо друг с другом, хотя именно для этого и создавалось. Очень странно.
Не могу заставить его работать с RE4. Можете ли вы мне помочь?
I can send you files that are definitely working. I had all these problems myself. Where should I send them?

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xUTCHMDS0VAgj_cjSBEZ3RzP7wEi6Eew/view?usp=drive_link try this link, does it work? and write back if you managed to install it.

I have an old 2070 TI card and for some reason everything is blurred for the latest DLSS, there are 3 of them in the link, try the latest one, if not, then install the previous one from these 3. I also got kicked out of the game or the "TEMPORAL UPSCALER" item simply did not appear, with these it definitely worked, I even double-checked it all a couple of times.
Does anyone know if the UpscalerBasePlugin + nvngx_dlss.dll method work on Linux? Haven't been able to get it to work (Backend is not loaded message)
edit: nvm got it to work. thx to @BioJorge for pointing out the 1.1.2 works. Kinda wondering why the 1.2.0 build is broken? Too bad it's closed source
1.2.0 build maybe not for normal games, it mentioned updated for skyrim vr. so just use 1.1.2 for now and it's enough and well worked with xess 2.0 with my poor xe igpu. already very nice.
NONE of this worked, doesn't matter what version I use temporal upscaling refuses to load! I've tried the files someone hosted on their google drive, I've tried downloading multiple versions from GH and nothing seems to work. I've followed all the online instructions and fixes but something has fundamentally broken and RE4 just refuses to work with it now :|
This isn't helped by how lacklustre the instructions are for both REFramework and the upscaler but even following YT guides and copying the files into the same places hasn't helped so I just think something fundamental has changed or flat out broken.
No solutions mentioned above have worked for me. Have quadruple checked that the correct files are in the right place. Framework loads fine in RE8, but TemporalUpscaler is a no-go.
Nothing works for me either to get both to load. It might have been this file (https://github.com/praydog/REFramework/actions/runs/11770014195), but it is no longer available... maybe someone can share it again?
Hey guys.
I just got it working. I tried multiple options and I finally got the correct versions.
Make sure you download 1.1.2 version https://www.nexusmods.com/site/mods/502?tab=files
Then you need to make sure you have the correct REFramework downloaded

that will work with MHRise ?, it turns out that I have been investigating with that and well, I do not see any solution anywhere and I do not find how to download the file because it is already deleted

AFAIK 3xxx does not support FG.

2xxx series and up supports the pd-upscaler branch in it's entirety, unless I'm not understanding this guy's reply from Feb 5 but I believe he was just trying to use DLSS not FG. Also you could technically get FSR3.1 or whatever to work in this game probably using OptiScaler + Reframework (pd-upscaler branch) along wth that 1.1.2 UpscalerPlugin.dll + Newest nvngx_dlss.dll. Haven't tried cuz I definitly don't want to use FSR3 not necessary in this game even in 4k on my 3060 running this mod using DLSS Quality on transformer K (newest DLSS model). I can get stable frame without RT on obviously or turning both RT options to Low but on Medium RT I get usually 50+ avg with G-sync enabled. (Onlu a 60 hz Monitor)
I'm kind of debating to just disable RT depending if the ghosting is still bad indoors as I did notice the terrible ghosting in the puddles at the very beginning of the game... I know that is an issue with this game itself, I was finding people saying on the steam community forums.
Hi, for me i just put the nvngx_dlss.dll (for DLSS) , PDPerfPlugin.dll and dinput8.dll (RE framework) into the root of game directory. After that, i run the game first time and it's appear the RE framework pop up then i close the game. Now it' should have a new reframework folder at the root of game directory, enter it and just put nvngx_dlss.dll (for DLSS) , PDPerfPlugin into plugins foldder.
RE Framework: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Fm7a8YWVFkEYea5d0boRxCQyIHujZgZs/view ( i've found it on youtube ) UpscalerBasePlugins: https://www.nexusmods.com/site/mods/502?tab=files ( make sure to download 1.1.6 version ) DLSS dll: https://www.techpowerup.com/download/nvidia-dlss-dll/ ( download the latest ) DLSSTweak: https://www.nexusmods.com/site/mods/550?tab=files ( for config DLSS model )
Edit: My game version is 1.1.0.5 btw

I don’t see where I’m supposed to download pd-upscaler version of reframwork
