Release 1.1 - Preset C, Vulkan Fixes and DLSS-G Compatibility

MFGAmpereUnlock 1.1

• Frame Generation Preset C - adds Preset C alongside the existing default, A and B options, with improved preset selection and status reporting.
• Vulkan fixes for games such as Indiana Jones and the Great Circle - fixes ReShade addon registration and a host-lifetime crash, recognizes renamed NVIDIA Streamline components, and removes unnecessary restrictions affecting native MFG requests and UI recomposition on Vulkan.
• Expanded DLSS-G compatibility - removes remaining hardcoded version and provider-profile restrictions, allowing MFG to work with more NVIDIA DLL configurations, including previously unrecognized Streamline and NGX providers.
• Native Dynamic MFG improvements - removes the 480 FPS target limit, improves mode switching, extends native Dynamic MFG request handling to Vulkan integrations, and aligns FPS target input with Streamline's native floating-point format.
• More flexible MFG multipliers - improves multiplier selection, request forwarding and capability reporting across different DLSS-G runtimes, letting the native provider evaluate the requested frame count.
• Broader image-quality compatibility - extends Temporal Fix, Validated Warp Blend, Intermediate Scatter Retention and Boundary Artifact Mitigation to more DLSS-G kernel layouts.
• Improved runtime stability - strengthens FG initialization, recovery across setting changes, module and resource handling, and protection against repeated failed requests.
• Redesigned MFG Unlock interface - reorganizes Basic and Advanced settings, adds a streamlined Game/Auto and 2x-6x multiplier slider, and improves access to quality, UI composition and runtime controls.
• Expanded MFGDiagnostics - adds native Dynamic MFG probing and HUD resource analysis to the existing optional diagnostics addon, keeping detailed tracing separate from MFG Unlock.

• Local and NVIDIA OTA provider handling - improves tracking of loaded NVIDIA components and prevents stale provider state after module or feature changes.
• Safer provider patching - adds stronger structural checks, guarded memory updates, transactional restoration and safer handling of partially recognized provider layouts.
• Temporal and image-quality stability - improves compatibility checks and lifecycle handling for Temporal Fix, Intermediate Scatter Retention, Boundary Artifact Mitigation and Validated Warp.
• Lower runtime overhead - reduces unnecessary provider maintenance and repeated work during frame presentation by reacting to actual module and feature changes.
• Improved diagnostics - expands passive frame cadence monitoring, MFG capability reporting, preset observation and CPU timing diagnostics.
• Expanded validation coverage - adds compatibility, lifecycle, provider, Vulkan ABI and resource-safety tests while improving reproducibility across GCC, Clang and MSVC.

1.0.1 Hotfix

• Automatic UI Composition fix - fixes severe scene flickering, blurry reconstruction and performance loss caused by repeated history resets, confirmed in The Witcher 3.
• Preserved native DLSS behavior - UI updates no longer override the game's history-reset flag, while keeping UI Recomposition, UI Alpha and MFG available.
• Improved diagnostics and regression tests - adds history-reset counters and tests covering UI updates across frames.
