Under Windows this is an option in the AMD control panel. Not sure how to enable it.

Specifically, this is for a non-native Proton game with FSR support built in. I am not using GE as I need the latest code in Proton experimental to run this game.

    In that case, the game itself should expose the feature. You don’t mention the exact game, but you could try PCGW.

    Alternatively, you could use vkBasalt to layer CAS on top, which from memory is pretty much what FSR sharpening is.

      Game is Hunt Showdown and they don’t have sharpening as an in game option.

      I will take a look at vkBasalt. Little worried that could trigger a ban from their anti-cheat.

        Yeah, don’t do that. You’re asking for the game to shut off at best. They probably won’t have the anticheat configured to outright ban you for that but, as a general rule: do not tamper with multiplayer anti-cheat protected games.

        My recommendation would be to go to their discord and request the option.

        EDIT: I will say this is overly cautious advice, I’ve never seen Crytek in general or any other developer ban people for using render alternating software that wasn’t specifically designed to be a cheat.

          The game doesn’t even realise gamescope is there. That’s the beauty of it. As the game sees it, it’s just a regular monitor with the specs you gave it via commands

      Correct - FSR already applies CAS. I don’t think applying another CAS pass on top of that will work out too well.

        True. I was assuming sharpening was disabled altogether, but if it’s just set not strong enough, that’s a different matter.
