GeForce Experience Gets New Freestyle Feature and More at CES 2018
NVIDIA Freestyle, a new feature that allows you to customize your gameplay, and an updated user interface for NVIDIA Ansel, our powerful photo mode for games, are among the enhancements to GeForce Experience we are announcing at CES in Las Vegas this week.
We are also announcing that Fortnite Battle Royale is among three new games that support NVIDIA ShadowPlay Highlights, which automatically captures your gaming achievements in videos and screenshots.
GeForce Experience is our companion application for GeForce GTX GPUs that helps keep your drivers up to date, optimize your game settings, and capture and share videos, screenshots and livestreams with friends. It turns a great PC into a great gaming PC with innovative features that are only available with GeForce GPUs.
NVIDIA Freestyle: New GeForce Experience Feature to Customize Your Games
The latest feature for GeForce Experience, NVIDIA Freestyle, allows you to apply post-processing filters on your games while you play. Right from the in-game overlay, you can change the look and mood of your game with tweaks to color or saturation, or apply dramatic post-process filters.
At launch there are a total of 15 filters with 38 different settings (some filters have multiple settings). They include:
- Black and White
- Color
- Colorblind
- Contrast
- Details
- Exposure
- Half Tone
- Mood
- Night Mode
- Retro
- Sepia
- Vignette
- Depth of Field
- Special FX
- Adjustments
Freestyle lets you be more creative with your games. For example, you can create a retro war-themed filter for your favorite FPS or enhance color and contrast to make a game look more photorealistic.
Freestyle's more serious uses include a colorblind mode that makes it easier of colorblind gamers to differentiate between colors. Gamers can even use night mode, which reduces blue color so users can sleep better after a night of gaming.
We've integrated Freestyle at the driver level for seamless compatibility with games. We're releasing the Freestyle game filters beta with support for over 100 game titles.
Fortnite Battle Royale and More Get ShadowPlay Highlights
On January 10, Fortnite Battle Royale will add support for ShadowPlay Highlights, joining Atom, Lawbreakers, Nioh, Paragon, PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS and Raiders of a Lost Planet as titles that support the feature. Additionally, we're announcing support for Crossout and Elex and Jue Di Qiu.
Ansel Gets 8 New Filters and a UI Makeover
We've updated the Ansel user interface to make it more intuitive. We've also added eight new filters and the ability to combine multiple filters to capture even more amazing photographs.
With Ansel, you can compose shots from virtually any camera position, adjust with post-process filters, capture HDR images in high-fidelity formats and share your screenshots in 360 degrees via your smartphone, PC or VR headset.
The new Freestyle game filters and Ansel photo mode features will be available in beta on January 9. To get them, download the latest GeForce Experience app (release 3.12) and Game Ready Driver (release 390). Then enable Experimental Features from within GeForce Experience settings.

Btw. Driver level implementation is different from injecting libraries. For most games it will be not detectable.
Game hacking 2.0. I really liked that shader code which turned image into text. You could send it via limited bandwidth out.

Unless I miss something it doesn't mention that it will be a driver level injection. All it says is - "Overlay".
Besides the list of games is already a limiting factor.
However if it will perform better compared to Reshade, I will reconsider using Geforce Experience altogether. I have grown accustomed to ability to tweak colors to my liking with Reshade in practically any game I have.
