DosBox-X

From the Author Site:

DOSBox-X is an open-source DOS emulator for running DOS applications and games.

DOS-based Windows such as Windows 3.x and Windows 9x are officially supported.

Compared to DOSBox, DOSBox-X is much more flexible and provides more features.

Look at the DOSBox-X Wiki for more information about DOSBox-X and usage guides.

We also hope that DOSBox-X (along with DOSLIB) can aid in new DOS development.

DOS Wasm X (browser based DOS emulator)

This is a browser based DOS emulator designed around ease of use and stability. It is based on the newer DosBox-X codebase and supports both Windows 95 and Windows 98 installations. However if you just want to use DOS applications and games you can stay in DOS mode. To begin using it simply drag and drop any application or game files onto the emulator. You can then save your hard disk with the click of a button or just exit if you want to discard your changes. The hard disk saves directly in your browser. It’s like your own personal virtual machine on the web!

OptiScaler mod adds AMD FSR 4 to many games that support DLSS

OptiScaler is a tool that lets you replace upscalers in games that already support DLSS2+ / FSR2+ / XeSS, now also supports enabling frame generation (through OptiFG or Nukem’s dlssg-to-fsr3).

While previously only DLSS2+ inputs were supported, newer versions also added support for XeSS and FSR2+ inputs (with some caveats 1 ). For example, if a game has DLSS only, the user can replace DLSS with XeSS or FSR 3.1 (same goes for an FSR or XeSS-only game). It also offers extensive customization options for all users, including those with Nvidia GPUs using DLSS.

Enables usage of XeSS, FSR2, FSR3, FSR4 2 and DLSS in upscaler-enabled games.

OptiScaler implements the necessary API methods of DLSS2+ & NVAPI, XeSS and FSR2+ to act as a middleware. It interprets calls from the game and redirects them to the chosen upscaling backend, allowing games using one technology to use another one of your choice.
