Steam Deck FSR 4 & FrameGen Plugins

There are some plugins for the Steam Deck that let you inject FSR 4 and enable Frame Generation. Has anyone tried them on POE2? And do those plugins trigger anticheat?


Update:
I did some testing with FS4 and FrameGen 2x:

- FSR 4 upscaling looks great.
- Inconsistent FPS in populated areas.
- Water looks terrible.

poe2 on a steam deck lol.... even with frame gen you'd get what? 40fps in town and 3 if you joined a party thru the campaign. Just right off trying to map entirely

I don't know about the Steam Deck, but Special K is a global injector that lets you optimize Windows' swap-chain, inject your own shaders/textures, force DLAA/MFG, enable alternative upscalers, etc. and it isn't detected at the moment but I wouldn't count on it always being undetectable as you're not supposed to use this with online games. The same goes for ReShade. You have to use Vulkan for ReShade to work though.
I only play SSF and it is my duty as one to inform you of my status.

Johnathan said that they optimized the game in version 0.4, so I guess this is promising.
