Could you build this?

No OptiScaler is a DLL-injection upscaler that hooks DirectX/Vulkan rendering pipelines, so meaningful changes require low-level C++ graphics expertise across multiple GPU APIs and vendor SDKs. Vibe coding can help with surface tweaks but not reliably with the core hooking and rendering work.

What it would actually take: A real fork needs C/C++ developers who understand DX12, Vulkan, and DLSS/FSR/XeSS SDK integration, plus a way to test across many games and GPUs. The hard part is the graphics hooking layer, which is debugged through GPU captures and crash analysis rather than generated code. Expect a small team of graphics or driver-level engineers with a large test matrix of hardware.
