CyberFSR2: My Red Dead Redemption 2 Port - Can't get D3D12_Init to call

Hey! I absolutely love the idea behind this and I had something really similar in mind. However, I am not as good at writing in C++ as I am in C#. I am trying to port this over to Red Dead Redemption 2.

I’ve managed to find the viewport and applied some simple changes in hopes it would work.

struct CameraParams
{
	float FoV; //0x0
	float NearPlane; //0x4
	float FarPlane;  //0x8
};

//offset can be found by tinkering with in-game FOV slider.

auto mod = (uint64_t)GetModuleHandleW(L"RDR2.exe");
auto ptr1 = *((uintptr_t*)(mod + 0x3E806E0));
camParams = ((CameraParams*)(ptr1));

I am unable to get it to work correctly for some reason. The game refuses to load the DLL when named “nvngx.dll” but loads when named “d3d11.dll” but then the actual functionality of the DLL doesn’t work with D3D12_Init not being called. (tested by using print with console in DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH).

Tested in Cyberpunk and works flawless.

Do you have any ideas how I could make this work? I am very desperate haha.

Thank you, again.

Unfortunately, it does not work for me. I believe there can be different addresses for different versions of the game and between license/cracked vesions. Can you describe the way you found the view matrix and hardware support check addresses?

EDIT: The problem is that there is no DLSS option in settings. Enabling it in system.xml changes nothing either.

I am using the legit version of rdr2. I will update to find the address by signature today so it shouldn’t matter what version of rdr2 you have unless it’s pre-dlss update.

edit : I won’t be supporting cracked versions, sorry.

Would love to know how nvngx.dll gets loaded in the first place because maybe I could force RDR2 to load it the way it should.

Still didn’t load, although your diff was quite different from mine (I had only changed _GPU_CHK, and had no deletions). I’m on version 1436.28

I forgot to put ‘EnableSignatureOverride.reg’ and ‘DisableSignatureOverride.reg’ to release zip-file. Can you download ‘EnableSignatureOverride.reg’ from the repository and run it? It allows to bypass DLSS signature check.

That got it working! nice. Weird because the reg edit wasn’t needed for me for the legit version.

Yeah sorry, no DLSS option, looks like it never gets loaded. Could you put up a fork with your edited files? Or share the diff with me? I guess I’m doing something wrong since I have no idea what I’m doing 🥲

Got it working! For some reason, the game seems to check if you have a supported GPU before going ahead and loading nvngx.dll, whereas cyberbug loads it pretty much without question and then unloads it if its not needed. Took a lot of debugging but will fork this repo and apply my edits. Thanks for the help dudes 😃
