Today, I tested the new update for madVR for media players and I got good performance with good quality on EVGA Geforce GTX 750 Ti Superclocked. Here it is tested on 1680x1050 monitor:

480p 60fps:
Chroma upscaling: NGU low quality
Image downscaling: SSIM 1D 100% + AR + LL
Image upscaling: NGU AA
-Luma quality: High
-Chroma quality: Normal (Bicubic60 AR)
-Upscale quality: Lanczos3 AR
-Downscale quality: SSIM 1D 100% + AR + LL
Upscaling refinement: Off
Artifact removal - Debanding: Medium/High
Artifact removal - Deringing: Off
Image enhancements: Off
Dithering: Error Diffusion 2
Average rendering: 13 ms
Max rendering: 14 ms

480p 30fps:
Chroma upscaling: BilateralSoft
Image downscaling: SSIM 1D 100% + AR + LL
Image upscaling: NGU AA
-Luma quality: Very High
-Chroma quality: High (NGU-Low)
-Upscale quality: Lanczos3 AR
-Downscale quality: SSIM 1D 100% + AR + LL
Upscaling refinement: Off
Artifact removal - Debanding: Medium/High
Artifact removal - Deringing: Off
Image enhancements: Off
Dithering: Error Diffusion 2
Average rendering: 25 ms
Max rendering: 27 ms

-With Upscale Sharpen:
Upscaling refinement: Sharpen Edges Default, AR
Average rendering: 29 ms
Max rendering: 30 ms

-4x Upscale:
NGU Sharp Luma quality: Direct 4x High
Average rendering: 21 ms
Max rendering: 23 ms


720p 60fps:
Chroma upscaling: NGU low quality
Image downscaling: SSIM 1D 100% + AR + LL
Image upscaling: NGU
-Luma quality: Low
-Chroma quality: Greyed Out (Bicubic60 AR)
-Upscale quality: Lanczos3 AR
-Downscale quality: SSIM 1D 100% + AR + LL
Upscaling refinement: Off
Artifact removal - Debanding: Medium/High
Artifact removal - Deringing: Off
Image enhancements: Off
Dithering: Error Diffusion 2
Average rendering: 14 ms
Max rendering: 15 ms

720p 30fps:
Chroma upscaling: NGU low quality
Image downscaling: SSIM 1D 100% + AR + LL
Image upscaling: NGU AA
-Luma quality: High
-Chroma quality: High (NGU-Low)
-Upscale quality: Lanczos3 AR
-Downscale quality: SSIM 1D 100% + AR + LL
Upscaling refinement: Off
Artifact removal - Debanding: Medium/High
Artifact removal - Deringing: Off
Image enhancements: Off
Dithering: Error Diffusion 2
Average rendering: 29 ms
Max rendering: 30 ms

Removing the image enhancements and NGU downscale reduction quality would reduce the ms by 1 or 2. I didn’t encounter frame drops on 30fps, 25fps, or 24fps videos.

1080p 60fps
Chroma upscaling: NGU AA low quality
Image downscaling: SSIM 1D 100% + AR + LL
Image upscaling: Jinc AR
Upscaling refinement: Off
Artifact removal - Debanding: Medium/High
Artifact removal - Deringing: Off
Image enhancements: Off

Average rendering: 13 ms
Max rendering: 15 ms

1080p 30fps:
Chroma upscaling: NGU AA low quality
Image downscaling: SSIM 1D 100% + AR + LL
Image upscaling: Jinc AR
Upscaling refinement: Off
Artifact removal - Debanding: Medium/High
Artifact removal - Deringing: Off
Image enhancements: Sharpen Edges 0.5 + AR + AB 50%
Dithering: Error Diffusion 2

Smooth Motion: Enable
Trade Quality for Performance: Unchecked all

I take a look at two websites for profiles and posted preferences.

I mess around the settings and post both 60fps and 30fps profiles for performance reasons. I prefer looking around 60fps profile since I have certain 60fps content and anime videos with hybrid frames per second, and also needed the performance if playing interlaced content that is deinterlaced to 60fps. I get a stable 60fps with no drops when testing for two minutes. If you do get a drop of frame later on when max rendering time is at 16 ms when playing 60fps content or hybrid video, turn chroma and/or downscale to Mid. I said this since I don’t know the performance of non-factory overclocked 750 Ti cards, but they’re pretty similar. Also, deringing filter can cause minor artifacts when only image doubling as I was testing several sources, it would have minor fuzzes in lines and only shown in those algorithms.

I am almost done with every character for a more appealing appearance. I only need to finish the rest of the random classmates and Leon. After that, I need to make models for their gym uniforms and everyday outfit.

By Tuesday, I would start the next chapter to show the new look on most characters. I also did Ron, and I tried to change his hair a bit more but the front sides are more fury. It’s sort of a challenge when making them closer to what I created in Kisekae. Maybe by the end of the month, I can post the 30 second animation with new model look and they all took modernized.

A gym clothes is next after having the rest of the characters on my list with school uniform. There will not be a short sleeve ones since it’s more of a challenge, with the exception of the yandere sim school girls that I got from a user from Deviantart, only change already is the uniform color. They are all TDA style models, which means they all have their graphic expressions with them at all times so I could just set the expression in MMD instead of photo shopping it. Lastly, The looks of all of them are much better that impresses me and took only about a week to change all of them with at least the school uniform and retexturing. Their eyes and mouths are shown more at the sides, which is easy for certain camera shots, with the exceptions of characters with hairs that cover the side of the eye when looking at the side of a character, but nothing like that happens with the main characters at least.

Expect a single page of Chapter 5 to release next week.
