RiskOfRainUpscaling
Adds upscaling and frame generation to Risk of Rain 2. Offers NVIDIA DLSS and AMD FSR.Risk of Rain Upscaling
Introduces upscaling and frame generation to Risk of Rain 2, using NVIDIA DLSS or AMD FSR.
- Upscaling: the game renders at a lower resolution and the mod rebuilds a clean full-resolution image. The game is already light, so depending on your system and FPS, you may lose frames instead of gaining any. Consider this an anti-aliasing option more than performance saving at high framerates.
- Frame Generation: adds generated frames between the real ones for smoother motion: up to 6x on NVIDIA, 2x with FSR.
Risk of Options is optional but strongly recommended. It adds an in-game settings page.
Will it work on my PC?
| Graphics card | Upscaling | Frame Generation |
|---|---|---|
| NVIDIA RTX 50 series | DLSS | DLSS, 2x–6x |
| NVIDIA RTX 40 series | DLSS | DLSS, 2x |
| NVIDIA RTX 20 and 30 series | DLSS | FSR, 2x |
| AMD, Intel and others | FSR | FSR, 2x |
The mod picks the right option for your card automatically. Only Windows + NVIDIA has been tested as of writing.
Getting started
- Launch the game. The mod starts in DLAA / Native AA: better anti-aliasing at your normal resolution.
- Want more FPS? Go to Settings → Mod Options → Risk of Rain Upscaling and set Upscaler Quality to Quality or Balanced. Lower settings are faster but softer.
- Want smoother motion? Turn on Frame Generation, then restart the game.
FAQ
Frame Generation won't turn on. Restart the game after enabling it, and don't use exclusive fullscreen.
The image looks too sharp or too soft. Adjust Sharpening (0 turns it off, 1 is strongest).
How do I turn it off? Set the upscaling level to "Off".
I found a bug. Set Logging Level to Info, reproduce the problem, then open an issue on the mod's GitHub page and attach the BepInEx/RiskOfRainUpscaling-Diagnostics folder from your profile.
Manual installation
- Install BepInEx 5.
- Extract the
BepInExfolder from this package into the game folder, keeping itspluginsandpatcherssubfolders.
Options
Change settings in Settings → Mod Options → Risk of Rain Upscaling, or edit BepInEx/config/xanderfrangos.riskofrainupscaling.cfg.
| Section | Settings |
|---|---|
[General] |
Enabled: master switch for everything the mod does. |
[Upscaling] |
Enabled, Quality (default DLAA), Upscaler (Auto, DLSS, FSR), DLSS Preset, Outlines, Sharpening, MipBiasOffset, MainMenu. |
[Frame Generation] |
Enabled (default off), Multiplier, Backend (Auto, DLSS, FSR), ReflexFrameLimiter. Turning Frame Generation on when it was off at startup needs a restart; changing Backend always does. |
[Diagnostics] |
Logging Level (default Off), ShowOverlay, CaptureWhileOff, TraceGraphicsStartup (leave on; Frame Generation needs it). |
[Hotkeys] |
Enable Hotkeys (default off) and five rebindable shortcuts. |
Hotkeys
You probably don't need these. Turn on Hotkeys → Enable Hotkeys to use these shortcuts.
| Default | Action |

| F10 | Toggle upscaling |
| F7 | Cycle upscaler quality |
| F11 | Toggle Frame Generation |
| F6 | Debug overlay |
| F8 | Capture diagnostics |
