The algorithm now distinguishes between UI elements (which are static) and 3D scene geometry. When you move your mouse over a menu, the frame generation temporarily pauses on that specific pixel region. The result is crystal clear text during high-motion sequences.

The new X3 mode is optimized to maintain the same latency as the previous X2 mode while providing even smoother motion.
However, the software evolved. What started as a simple integer scaler for pixel-art games has morphed into a real-time performance monster. With version 2.9.0, the focus has shifted dramatically toward .
