💻 PART 1: PREPARATION

1. Install the DLSS SDK to your C: Drive
Open a standard Command Prompt (cmd.exe) and run these two commands:

cd C:\
git clone https://github.com/NVIDIA/DLSS.git DLSS_SDK


🚀 PART 2: THE BUILD
Close the standard cmd. Open "x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS 2022" (Search "x64" in Start Menu).

1. Download Blender Source:
mkdir C:\blender-git
cd C:\blender-git
git clone https://projects.blender.org/blender/...

2. Get the NVIDIA Code:
cd C:\blender-git
cd blender
git remote add nvidia https://projects.blender.org/pmoursnv...
git fetch nvidia
git checkout -b dlss nvidia/dlss

3. Download Libraries (Takes ~20 mins):
make update
(Type 'y' and hit enter if asked)

4. Create Build Folder:
cd C:\blender-git
mkdir build
cd build

5. Configure the Build (Copy this ENTIRE block as ONE line):
cmake ../blender -DWITH_CYCLES_DEVICE_CUDA=ON -DWITH_CYCLES_CUDA_BINARIES=ON -DWITH_DLSS=ON -DDLSS_SDK_ROOT="C:\DLSS_SDK" -DWITH_CYCLES_DEVICE_OPTIX=ON -DOPTIX_ROOT_DIR="C:\OptiX_SDK"

6. Compile Blender (Takes ~30 mins):
cmake --build . --target INSTALL --config Release


⚠️ FINAL STEP (Don't Forget!)
Without this, the DLSS button won't appear.

1. Go to: C:\DLSS_SDK\lib\Windows_x86_64\rel
2. Copy the file: nvngx_dlssd.dll
3. Paste it into: C:\blender-git\build\bin\Release
4. Launch blender.exe and enjoy!
