DLSS 5 Studio v1.0.8 ⚡

Feeder route Multi-Frame Generation detection (resolves Issue #7), DirectX 11 Technical Incompatibility Advisory with Anti-Suppression, and 5-manifest backup retention engine.

---

🚀 Highlights & Improvements

• Feeder Route Multi-Frame Generation Detection (Issue #7):
  • Resolved a contradiction where games utilizing the DLSS 5 Feeder route showed "Unsupported (requires native DLSS-G)" in the specifications panel despite having MFG active via the Feeder path.
  • The game detail panel now specifically inspects for active Feeder route deployments rather than checking solely for native DLSS-G.
• DirectX 11 Route Incompatibility Advisory & Anti-Suppression:
  • When inspecting pure DirectX 11 games (such as A Plague Tale: Innocence), the UI now presents an explicit High Incompatibility Advisory banner explaining that Multi-Frame Generation and certain OptiScaler paths require DirectX 12 presentation pipelines and motion vectors.
  • Added an anti-suppression architecture ensuring prior feeder manifests or proxy hooks cannot suppress compatibility warnings or falsely declare DX12-exclusive features supported.
  • Includes a "Deploy with Force Override" button (btn_deploy_override) with dedicated warning styles and complete localization across all 13 supported languages.
• 5-Manifest Backup Retention Engine (prune_old_manifests):
  • Implemented an automatic journal pruning engine retaining the top 5 most recent manifest.json.done-* backup records.
  • Automatically cleans orphaned originals/{timestamp} backup directories no longer referenced by active or retained manifests, keeping backup storage lean and organized.
