In an interview with VideoGamer for the launch of F1 24 Season 4, technical producer Si Lumb explained that the team opted to go with the team’s internal TAA solution for the game’s 8K mode on PSSR. With PSSR having a render budget cost of around 2 milliseconds, it was a safer bet to rely on TAA for this release.

“In our 8K mode, we’re not using PSSR at the moment,” Lumb explained. “We use PSSR in our 4K quality mode, and we use our own temporal anti-aliasing solution, TAA, in 8K. We have explored using PSSR and that’s one of the opportunities for the future”

Lumb revealed that the initial plans for F1 24 on PS5 Pro weren’t going to use PSSR at all. However, with the 4K quality mode pushing more effects, the team decided to try out PlayStation’s reconstruction tech and implement it into the EGO Engine.

“When we initially got the Pro, we hadn’t actually intended to use PSSR,” Lumb said. “We got up and running with our own TAA. We were quite happy with what it looked like in [terms of] performance. PSSR was then something we experimented with: we added it to see whether it gave us opportunities that we hadn’t seen in our own TAA.”

“So we are looking at PSSR in the other modes: 4K 120, the Performance Mode, and in the 8K 60 mode for future titles,” we were told. “In development, you make sensible choices about how much risk you want to take on in pushing new technologies and then closing them out. We understood our TAA very well, [but] we did have to do some optimizations that allowed us to hit that 8K 60.”

F1 24 devs never intended to use PS5 Pro’s biggest feature, but it was too good to turn down

Codemasters have revealed that PSSR in F1 24 was never intended to be included, but the PS5 Pro feature was too good to turn down.

Good stuff. PSSR ML is still 1.0 and will continue to evolve, learn and receive regular updates and developers will continue to learn how to take advantage of pssr ml. Next year and moving forward to 4 years from now before ps6 , PSSR ML will be big for PS5 pro at it continues to be receive updates and evolve.

Congratulations to the studio because their game is one of those that runs best on Pro.

The priority for Cerny and his team is likely to reduce the cost of PSSR.
