A demo of the tech running in The Last of Us Part 1 showed a 30 FPS gaming experience boosted to 100 FPS with 4x frame-generation.

Android PC gaming is slowly taking off, with apps such as GameNative and GameHub making it possible for everyday Android gamers to install and run PC games from their mobile devices. Now, PC-centric gaming features are also trickling over to Android, specifically, multi-frame generation. A new update for the GameNative Android app has unlocked support for Lossless Scaling's multi-frame generation technology.

LSFG's frame generation tech works a bit differently in GameNative compared to how the app behaves on a normal Windows desktop PC. The tech must be enabled on a per-game basis and requires the user to enable frame generation in the GameNative container settings, after which the app is downloaded through the user's Steam account.

    GameNative is an AI slop clone of Brunodev85's Winlator that's created by a scamming Indian who is making it seem like they're doing an original work. Similarly, GameHub is a Chinese clone of Brunodev85's stolen work which upon installation, requires access to every permission-gated component of your phone possible while running a keylogger that sends everything, and I mean everything to their Firebase database in Hong Kong.

    the irony of writing a false claim ai-generated comment and claim their good work is "ai". also what does their nationality or ethnicity have anything to do with their apps?

    And Winlator is a wrapper of a combination other people's work. There is basically no difference. And also without citations, your hallucinations of AI is even worse than AI halucinating about AI.

    Brunodev85 has clearly cited his work and shown an LGPL license due to its viral nature (from precursor work).

    If you were capable of basic reading and writing, you'd have been able to discern between a comment written by a human and LLM.

    how about we stick to the tech and not throw around baseless claims and insults? nothing GameNative has done or said implies in any way their app an "ai slop clone" and your sinophobic, racist, anti-indian comments about the devs are pure bigotry and hate speech.

    and this entire sentence is ai hallucinated nonsense and baseless lies. where is your proof of these outlandish claims?

    'This tech won't improve responsiveness, but games will look smoother.'

    And here is the flaw with all so called fake frame generators. It is not really the low average frame rate that affects gameplay it is the spike you feel in the 1% lows. Just because you generate a bunch of fake frames to make it so you don't see the loss of the real frames you will still fell it in the game play. How is the fake frame generator going to know at that moment you told the game to turn and the frame generators decided to generate images of you going straight.
