Click the button in the top right corner of the Lossless Scaling utility. You will have a 5-second countdown to click back into your windowed game. Alternatively, use the default hotkey: Ctrl + Alt + S . Troubleshooting Common Issues 1. Excessive Input Lag
Lossless Scaling is a third-party Windows application that allows users to upscale windowed games to full screen using high-quality scaling algorithms. It bypasses the blurry bilinear scaling traditionally utilized by monitors and graphics drivers.
: You have to run your game in windowed mode for it to hook correctly, which can be a slight menu-fiddling chore on a small touchscreen. The Verdict
The v3.1 update represents a major leap in utility for power-constrained portable devices by focusing on efficiency and image stability.
Introduces "fake frames" to make 30 FPS or 40 FPS gameplay visually appear as 60 FPS or 120 FPS.
Avoid going too high to prevent film grain and ringing artifacts. Turn this on to enable interpolation. Mode X2 (or X3 if base FPS is 40+)
If you find the portable version useful, please support the developer (THS) by purchasing Lossless Scaling on Steam (usually $6.99). The portable version is intended for:
The headline feature of v3.1.0 is the new Performance Mode, which provides up to 2× GPU load reduction, depending on hardware and settings, with a slight reduction in image quality. In some cases, this mode can even improve image quality by allowing the game to achieve a higher base frame rate.
The core upgrade, providing superior interpolation for smoother gameplay.
Off (Rarely needed for low-demand 2D titles) Capture Method: DXGI or WGC (Windows Graphics Capture) Troubleshooting Common Issues Issue 1: Screen Flickering or Black Screen
On handhelds, ensure you are in performance mode to maximize the benefit of LSFG, even if it draws more battery.
The software bundles several state-of-the-art spatial upscalers, including:
The update adds support for Finnish, Georgian, Greek, Norwegian, Slovak, and Toki Pona.
Cap the game's internal frame rate using an in-game limiter or RTSS (RivaTuner Statistics Server). Your base frame rate must be stable. If your game fluctuates wildly between 20 and 40 FPS, frame generation will feel stuttery. Cap it to a solid 30 FPS or 40 FPS. Application Settings
