Technical operation of the situation
While the PureDark mod relies on ReShade for integration into the game, the LukeFZ mod uses other tools like NVIDIA Streamline, Ultimate ASI Loader, and MinHook. This makes it unique and perhaps more flexible.

Configuration and limitations
One limitation of this mode is the lack of a dedicated user interface to adjust parameters. For any advanced customization, you will need to manually manipulate the config.json file after running the game for the first time. Fortunately, this isn’t usually necessary: just make sure FSR 2 is enabled in the game options.
Impact on performance
Enabling DLSS framerates in Starfield can significantly increase frame rates in some gaming scenarios, however, it should be noted that this mod, like PureDark, is not bug-free. Crashes can occur during loading or when switching menus, an issue that appears to be affecting a number of players.
