v0.7.0 (pre-release)

The Dragon Age: Origins (Xbox 360) recompilation: frame generation, Intel XeSS-SR, field of view settings, and a launcher you can drive with a gamepad, with views for save backups and downloadable content.

You need your own copy of the game as an Xbox 360 disc image (title 454108C0). This download contains no game code or data; the installer builds the game from your ISO on your PC.

Install or update (Windows)

• Updating from v0.3.x or later: the launcher offers this update itself (Update on its main menu). You can also run the new DAORecomp.exe and pick the same install folder.
• New install, or updating from v0.2.0 or older: download DAORecomp.exe below and run it. It isn't code-signed, so Windows may warn: More info → Run anyway. Pick the ISO and an install folder, accept the build tools license, and press Install. When it's done, the same exe becomes the game's launcher. An update only rebuilds what changed, and your saves, settings and mods are kept.
• DAORecomp-Installer.exe is the same file under its old name, for launchers before v0.5.2.

New

• Frame generation (FSR 3.1): with temporal upscaling on, a frame is generated between each two the game draws, with its own pacing, for up to twice the frames on a high refresh rate display (about half a frame more latency). On a display that can't show twice the game's frame rate, only the real frames are shown. Turn it on under Graphics, in the launcher or in game.
• Intel XeSS-SR: a second temporal upscaler beside FSR 4 and FSR 3.1. It runs on most recent GPUs and is best on Intel Arc. Where it can't run, FSR is used instead. Frame generation works with either upscaler.
• Field of view: separate settings for gameplay and for conversations and cutscenes, from 80° to 120° across (91° is the game's own). They're in the launcher's Configure view and the in-game Graphics tab, and in-game changes apply straight away.
• Launcher, Save Backups: each time the game saves over a save, the save it replaces is kept as a backup. This view lists the backups by character, with where and when each was made, and puts one back after asking. Restoring again switches back.
• Launcher, Downloadable Content: shows which DLC and title update are installed, and which DLC need the title update.
• Launcher, controller navigation: any gamepad drives the whole launcher (Xbox, DualSense, DualShock and others). The button hints match the gamepad used last.

Changed

• OptiScaler and other upscaler overlays: if FSR fails while one is in use, FSR is started again, and after repeated failures the image is scaled instead of the game stopping. The overlay's DLL is named in the log.

Known issues

• The DLC campaigns have only been checked to start; please report anything that goes wrong in them.
• Cutscene field of view uses the conversation setting, but this hasn't been checked in every cutscene.
• Linux (Wine/Proton) is still untested; HDR there depends on the compositor.
