AMD Radeon™ Anti-Lag 2

The AMD Radeon™ Anti-Lag 2 SDK enables games to reduce end-to-end system latency in GPU-bound scenarios on AMD Radeon GPUs.

Download the latest version - v2.0.3

This release adds the following features:

  • Now available as a plugin for Unreal Engine 5.6 and below.

Features

  • Reduce latency from input to presented image on GPU-bound games using Microsoft® DirectX® 11 and DirectX® 12.
    • Optionally also limit frame rate.

More details can be found in the SDK readme on GitHub and in our Integrating Anti-Lag 2 blog.

We have Naming Guidelines available for use in game user interfaces, including translated strings.

Plugin for Unreal Engine 5.6 and below

Instructions for using the Anti-Lag 2 Unreal Engine plugin:

  • Extract the zip file.
  • Place the AntiLag2 folder within your Unreal Engine source tree at: Engine/Plugins/Marketplace
  • Open UnrealEditor.
  • Go to the Plugins window and enable AntiLag2.
  • Restart.
  • Anti-Lag 2 can be enabled and disabled in the Project Settings > Anti-Lag 2 or via the Console Variable ‘ r.AMD.AntiLag2 ‘.

More information available as part of the plugin package.

FSR 3 Frame Generation support

The Anti-Lag 2 Unreal Engine plugin integrates with the AMD FidelityFX™ Super Resolution (FSR) 3.1.4a Unreal Engine plugin in order to function correctly with FSR 3 Frame Generation enabled when using the native Direct3D® 12 backend.

Introducing AMD Render Pipeline Shaders SDK
The brand-new AMD Render Pipeline Shaders (RPS) SDK is a comprehensive and extensible Render Graph framework for graphics applications and engines using explicit APIs (such as DirectX® 12 and Vulkan®). In this video we will take a look at the overview of the design and implementation of the SDK. We will demonstrate how the RPS SDK can help game engines building render graphs easily, managing resource barriers and transient memory efficiently, and more!
