Finding the balance point for AI sharpening filter levels?
The atmosphere is dark, but the blur was unbearable. I initially cranked sharpening to 100%, but tree edges looked like they had white glowing outlines—totally distracting. I spent an hour in the GamePP filter panel, sliding the strength down to a 45% - 55% range. This finally enhanced the outlines without creating those ugly artifacts. Performance impact was minimal, fluctuating only 1 - 2 FPS around a 60 FPS baseline. The only limitation is a slight graininess in pitch-black shadows, which seems to be an inherent flaw in the current AI upscale algorithm we are using.
