According to my testing there is almost no change in image quality for now, but if in future Intel drops newer version of XeSS that might give u more quality.
@sikodude again just like @rimuruimuru said you can 'swap' and revert XeSS dll versions with DLSS swapper (also FSR dlls) for any game. It's not only for DLSS. lol smh , oh & yeah @InventorLS that was just more comfortable me for since i already had it, random scripts can be sketchy but thanks for making this nonetheless .
Contents of the .bat file for those who are sus like me

So this batch file is like.... instructions in a menu, just opening links in the browser for the user to do everything manually/.
I made a batch file that actually grabs XeSS from Github and extracts the needed files making backups of the originals, then tidies up.
Sadly my release is currently autoflagged as suspicious :| perhaps because it is my first submission ever or because I needed to include a 7zip binary, the 7za CLI which is not available as a single file in the 7zip github repository but is in the -extra archive which is ironically a 7zip archive in the Releases tab.
7zr.exe won't do, but speaking of which I have another idea now :)
No I am actually creating rather easy scripts that do things for you :) Been a while since college though and I work in audio now, not in Computer Science anymore. ^^ I still write shell scripts and python scripts much more often than I do anything Windows-specific (that being PowerShell or Batch).
No, the game uses XeSS 2.0.0 and this process will let you replace it with XeSS 2.0.1 and if in future XeSS will release more updates that can also be easily install in game with the same method
You sure that XeSS 2.0.1 isn't already in the game? My current libxess.dll and libxess_dx11.dll that came installed with the game both show version 2.0.1 in the Windows hover tooltip.
