Just do what I do and sell yourself on the street for nickels. You'll be SLI'ing in no time bb.
Thanks, disabling Seam Overlay fixed it. Beautiful locked 60fps at 1440p rendering resolution, thank you Durante!

Would be amazing if this works in the future with Sonic Generations.
This is really a godsend though, been wanting to downsample but AMD doesn't want us to for some reason.

Weird, it doesn't seem like it's working. I disabled the AA in-game, but toggling through the effects with the number keys does absolutely nothing. Have to check everything to make sure I didn't mess anything up I guess.
But even though I'm having difficulties I see others aren't. Thanks for making this Durante, you're awesome as always.

I'll definitely jump on this for at least DSII when more of the bugs are ironed out.
Enabling everyone to downsample and modify every game is lofty goal, but it's great devs like Durante that provide tools for the community instead of "just" fixes that get such an avalanche started.

Disable Steam Overlay. That worked for me.
ARE YOU USING GEDOSATO WITH DARK SOULS II?
A new generation is born!
... and how well it runs!
Anyway alt-tab is freezing for me in Dead Space and SweetFX SMAA is acting funny. I'll wait for some more inputs from others.
Couple more
Right I should stop spamming this thread no and get off to the screen shot one
Bizarrely I am SLI'ing already but that doesn't solve the VRAM shortage sadly
Yeah I was getting 50-60fps with about 90-95% GPU usage with the above settings. 8XSGSSAA just killed it down to 21fps and 3gb VRAM up the spout.
Also alt tabbing out of game almost gave me a seizure with the screen flickering on and off rapidly.

Ha. I guess I'm still trained from DsFix because I totally read the ReadMe file and swore it said disable. XD
Thanks, works fine now.

Durante you are a god! This tool makes the life of any AMD user a million times easier, it's something I always wanted to have and you just created it with so many bells and whistles like a OSD and organized screenshots that it's incredible!
And while my DS II is still downloading I managed to get it to work in Sonic Generations with my 7970! It's a bit tricky but it works: http://a.pomf.se/jfwkqb.png (Warning ~7mb image)
It's just a random screenshot I took while testing, hardly anything of beauty but it gets the point across! The only issue I noticed is that some text is sometimes garbled in the game but that might be very well the doing of the Unleashed FX Pipeline on my end.
How to:
Essentially just add
SonicGenerations
SonicGenerations.fxpipeline (only if you use the Unleashed Render Pipeline mod)
ConfigurationTool (I'm sure this isn't needed anyway)
to the whitelist. Then, since the configuration tool won't detect the downsampling resolution go inside your Sonic Generations folder and open the file GraphicsConfig.cfg.
You will find
here if you usually play in 1080p, go ahead and change the numbers to whatever you have set in GeDoSaTo, in my case it would be:
Now just run the game and enjoy!
NOTE: The game might appear to have crashed on start-up but let it sit for a moment at the black screen, the SEGA logo will eventually appear.

Does it potentially work with games older than DirectX 9 (that still use DirectX)? Older games are some of the best for downsampling as you can pump it up into the stratosphere with little worry about performance loss, but the notes seem to suggest only DX9, unless that covers everything older too.
Guess I'll try it out on something and see.
Edit: As a middle-ground I tried running Unreal Tournament with a DirectX 9 renderer and it won't even start with it turned on . I tried making Emulate exact flipping behaviour true and that didn't help.
Edit 2: Tried to lower the resolution a bit in case it's to do with the game not dealing with super-high resolutions well but that didn't work either.

renderWidth and renderHeight are the resolutions you want the game to be renderized (It should be higher than your native resolution). presentWidth and presentHeight are the actual resolution of your monitor or TV.

Does not work with Half-Life 2. I can set the resolution, but the game is broken during gameplay.
Whenever the steam overlay comes up while playing, this happens. Not sure if it is caused by this app or not. Don't think so but not sure.
But what you don't see here is this happened halfway through the ruin sentinel fight for me. I somehow managed to kill them from 1/3 health while barely seeing them. Felt proud
I'm having a slight problem. I have the rendered resolution set to 1440p downsampled to 1080p. However when I change the in-game resolution setting to 1440p after enabling GeDoSaTo and saving/exiting the game (Dark Souls II) it launches in windowed mode. Only by selecting 1080p again does it revert to fullscreen.
Just tested Dishonored. Seems to work. The only problem: The mouse icon can't move freely in the screen, is limited in a small portion of it (a 16:9 box, so I guess the mouse is moving into a 1920x1080 pixel space) so navigating the menù with it is impossibile (you can use the keyboard though), but the game seemed perfectly playable, I was able to look around without any problem. I didn't notice any graphical glitches.
Runner 2 works perfectly, Splinter Cell Chaos Theory doesn't even show the custom resolution.

Everytime I activate GeDoSato, I can move around for about 2 seconds, and then DarkSouls2 crashes. I got a 780 GTX, so it runs fine for those 2 seconds, then that's it. Anyone else have this problem?

He's not kidding. Sonic Generations can upscale to ridiculous levels and just look amazing. Here's the game downsampled from 7k to 4k with a sharpening filter in Photoshop.

Could someone do me a favour and check if this works with Sleeping Dogs?
Ugh, I hadn't even considered the possibility of this. I just tested it with TERA and logged in three times with it active..
Well... i cant get this to work so im just gonna go to bed and cry
Im testing with the games that work according to the spreadsheet, but i dont see any other resolution on the game options other than 1920. Im supposed to be able to choose a higher res, right? im a total n00b so im probably just not understanding the whole thing :/

You have to edit the .ini file first. Take a look at the read-me file.
I set my settings like this.
I did but it didn't work. I just copy and pasted yours and it worked with DmC, which wasn't working before. It still doesn't work with Dirt 3 tho but the spreadsheet says it works. But thanks!! your config made it work!
Viva Durante!!

Of course I'm not!
And wow that's a great shot, I really like the grass It doesn't seem to
Atleast I found no way how to trigger it in Sleeping Dogs unlike Sonic Generations, sorry :/
Just answering to myself, it works but you can't see menus very well (some of them show up well and some others don't) and there's some strange long loading time once you load a game. Normally it loads immediately
The game also crashed a couple of times on the main menu and get some really infrequent hiccups while playing

tried to use the texture dumping setting on dark souls but it crashed the game at startup... i want to change the xbox 360 buttons for ds3 ones :S

Alright, thanks for checking!
So, just to be clear, in the in game DS2 settings, should I be changing my res too, or do I just need to run the program after changing the ini (no real changes needed since it defaults to 1080p, but if I wanted to)? Because I'm getting the effects, but when I hit + to get the on screen reports it says not downsampling. Thought maybe I needed to change my rez in the game settings and it still says not downsampling.
