Also DLSS has pretty strict requirements in advertising, requiring nvidia logo & adverts on splash screens and give nvidia any rights to use your app in their own advertising. [0] It's certainly not "free". A completely night and day difference to FSR, which just uses MIT [1]

Lots of people online seem to believe both are "free", so the only reason why you wouldn't implement one is some back room deal. But in my experience, just getting everyone into the same room to sign off on things like that is hard.

One "advantage" to this mod is they can completely ignore the license I guess.
