AMD FSR Upscaling (EASU)

The upscaling pass of AMDs FSR. (Internally called EASU).

It does not include the sharpen pass, but still is a huge improvement over bilinear. I’ve also ported over the sharpen pass, but Godot doesn’t really have a good way to do multi-pass post processing so it’s basically one or the other. Godot 4 includes a more proper implementation, but this world in GLES 2 and GLES 3 on Godot 3.X.

Should give significant gains over native res on desktop, but very heavy on mobile.

To use, create a viewport at a lower resolution than the window size. Then, pass that viewport texture to a texturerect that is larger than the viewport texture. If you have the right setupo, you should be able to select filter for the viewport texture and get bilinear filtering Then, apply this shader to the texturerect. (This shader will behave identically whether or not filter is enabled on the viewport texture)
