Lossless Scaling

Lossless Scaling is a small utility aimed at players who want to stretch older or heavier games to a smoother-looking output without waiting for native support. By our assessment, its real strength is the practical one: it sits between the game and the display work and can make rough frame pacing feel less jagged. The trade-off is that it is still a software layer, so it cannot create real performance out of nowhere and it depends on how the underlying game behaves. In practice it is the kind of tool you leave open, pick a mode, and then notice mostly when the image or motion improves. Compared with built-in upscaling or frame-generation features, it is a workaround, not the same thing, and that difference matters. Lossless Scaling is useful when compatibility is good and the source game cooperates.
