@compusemble If this works eventually, it's going to be HUGE for modding!

A modder is trying to mod RTX Neural Texture Compression into Resident Evil Requiem. They say that they've hooked into the via.render.Renderer using REFramework and mapped the texture heap, but they need an AI expert to help with .ntc weight baking. 🤔 nexusmods.com/residentevilre…

@BMKing23 HBAO was really good back when we used only rasterization. They now have completely forgotten it...

Ray Tracing vs Path Tracing in #PRAGMATA . Path Tracing looks stunning, no doubt, but do we really need it for basic effects like casting a shadow or adding shading beneath the car? Or to properly shade characters’ faces? I think the answer is a clear NO.

@BMKing23 Max Shadows was also very VRAM hungry on Resident Evil 9 too!

If you're using Path Tracing in #PRAGMATA, set Shadow Quality to Lowest. This saves a significant amount of VRAM with no noticeable visual impact.

It's also pretty cheap on Steam right now! store.steampowered.com/app/287390/Met…

This is Metro Last Light Redux using Max Settings + 3X SSAA (at 1080p) and a simple ReShade Preset!

@BMKing23 Massive difference, there is also no difference in VRAM or RAM usage, weird

As usual in RE Engine games, Shadow Cache is essential in #PRAGMATA and should always remain enabled.

Here are the PS5 Equivalent and PC Optimized Settings provided by Digital Foundry for Death Stranding 2. The main issue for a GPU like the RTX 4060 seems to be VRAM, where Rich uses the Medium Preset, which looks really blurry for some textures (PS5 uses Very High Textures)!

Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition still looks phenomenal! Here it is running on an RTX 4060 using DLSS 4.5 Performance Mode (Preset M) and the Extreme Preset with RT Ultra!

With the recent reveal of Metro 2039, if you decide to revisit the older Metro games, you can check out a guide I made on Metro 2033 Redux! youtu.be/z00gLaIFcao

First look at Metro 2039, including some brief gameplay at the end. youtube.com/watch?v=6dVI3g…

In just a short amount of time, Pearl Abyss has already made noticeable technical improvements to #CrimsonDesert . There are still some issues left to tackle, but the progress so far is genuinely encouraging. Patch 1.03.01 Analysis👇 youtu.be/RchtbMl6GII

REPLACED is a newly released 2.5D Game with an interesting art style. The game doesn't have any Graphics Settings that can be configured besides Resolution and V-Sync. As expected the game runs extremely well even at 4K! youtu.be/UyWKrF5XoUc

Path tracing minimum, recommended, and ultra specs for PRAGMATA, per NVIDIA.

@mpr_reviews It only has an RT toggle. No PT in this version sadly...

@GamingOptimiz I forgot, but does the Pragmata demo have path tracing, or just normal RT?

Here is a quick benchmark of the PRAGMATA Demo using RT and mostly High Settings (Similar to RE 9 Optimized Settings). I am also using DLSS 4.5 Performance (M Preset) at 1440p youtube.com/shorts/PoW1jmk…
