looks like some one took half life one and updated it for unreal 4 or something.

How can you pirate something that's free?

That's the magic of Raytracing.

He needs to download more fps and dedicate wam

I think that's the problem

This will be really cool for a lot of people in a few years when nvidia cards with RTX are much cheaper. Stay seething.

For information, this is the RTX mod that was available before, picked up by a proper NVidia development team.
They got permission to use a community texture pack as base for modified RTX compatible textures and material rendering.
There's also some new models like the shiny super shotgun and an optimized ray tracing/denoising algorithm.
It's free but if you want to play the whole game you need the original Quake 2 game files.

>muh old and ugly shit!!!

>Multiplayer support for full game
We need maps with mirrors now.

What's GTX stand for?

why the fuck does it look like quake 4 and not 2?

>I like my old and ugly shit and everyone that disagrees is a shill!

not even worth a (You) for me

it looks so bad and btw it's not fully ray traced it's 1/3 raytraced with a bunch of faking to fill in (they said on stream) and that's why it doesn't even looks as present as their original demo with the huge amounts of noise

hes not wrong

Don't worry, I gave you your (You) for him

whats the point of ray trace anyways. can't you just bake this shit?

why the fuck did they completely remove the red sky? the initial q2 path tracing release earlier in the year didn't and it looked really nice with all the red lighting bouncing everywhere

take off those nostalgia glasses my friend

how fucking stupid are they

what are you talking about? it litterally proves his point, unless you're blind/retarded. One is dark the other is bright.

I would love to see this, but it needs to be a lot darker and oranger.

I think whats going on is that they're going to darken them, but this is just to show off the lighting.

Theres no way they think this is right.

Not him, it does look better, but it looks like they totally ruined/stripped the atmosphere of the game, and I don’t even like quake 2 that much.

quake 1 is great.

thats actually really bad.

i have to assume user is making these for a joke since releasing stills like this wouldn't even show off the whole advantage which is the real time dynamic lights and shadows and reflections

jesus christ

they should've done it for quake 4 desu

Oh you

old pasta, weak bait

This just makes it look like a Serious Sam ripoff.

it should at least show the amazing ambient occlusion that RTX is supposed to provide but that image is completely flat because they turned the fucking light intensity up to 1000%

D3 and Q4 stencil shadows are charming as it is, dont ruin it with realistic lighting.

And you need $1000 just for gpu to run this, lord what happened to pc gaming. I hope this is a "benchmark" / tech demo to show off rtx can do, not a video game.

People actually played in the darkness on top? Yikes. Bottom is superior.

That's not unusual for him to endorse something like that. Remember MEGA TEXTURES? The dude was always more about pushing the technical limitations of games than anything else.

I somehow doubt he gives an honest fuck about it. He's just in VR and rocket building.

kek

this is fake raytraced garbage though. they did a real raytrace which looked good "under" a lot of noise. the problem is, in raytracing to get rid of the noise you have to do 100 or 10000 times more rays for each pixel, i.e. you need at least 1000x the power that we have (the noisy demo was at the limit of gpus). So they said fuck it lets go back to the usual "faked" lighting methods but say it's the evolution of our raytraced demo
fucking unbelievable

Attached: 1456456343634.png (1200x800, 52K)

why are we in such a time where pushing technical limitations looks like shit

there's some kind of fuckery here where "pathtracing" (whatever that is) is being passed off as raytracing which this clearly isn't

I already own a 2080ti, might as well.

oh nonono

Are people just baiting or they don't get what "tech demo" is?

they made quake 2 look like the inside of an office building

>SOUL

path tracing is a subset of ray tracing

wait so it's got nothing to do with this one? no fucking way just take RTX out back already

What the fuck where did all the time go?
Also, "The Edge" was pure multiplayer kino and I think Quake 2's CTF levels are still kickass to this day.

No, it's the exact same thing as that fan demo, which is the problem because neither are actual ray tracing.

that one is the same dog shit path tracing. you can clearly see the gun model is texture geometry, rasta displayed on the screen

THIS is actual RAY TRACING
youtube.com/watch?v=x19sIltR0qU
which at low samples creates a lot of high frequency noise that youtube compression turns into absolute shit. But you can see, hopefully, through the limitation how much more 'real' a technique it is than whatever fucking shit this thread is about

and btw turns out this is by just someone, not nvidia

But Quake 2 was already soulless. This said, I'd like to see some multiplayer coming back, that was it's only good part

>This is real Ray tracing
>Explosions cast no light
I don't think that's real either

NIGGER

WHY DID THEY MAKE THE SKY BLUE. FUCKING FAGGOTS.

its not pure path tracing. its a hybrid approach
>Which parts of the rendering process use rasterisation?
I use hardware rasterisation only for the primary rays and perform the raytracing in the same pass

Why the fuck couldn't they get this to run through their meme RT cores, he's running that just with an old ass Titan Xp at a pretty ok looking framerate and the noise isn't even that terrible. The RT and Tensor cores are specifically made for denoising aren't they? Or is RTX really just that fucking bad

And
are the same thing, but the first is also applying a denoising filter to the Pathtracer output

unironically souless

the rt cores arent even enough to do noiseless realtime rendering on professional software like vray, and octane. but they are definitely quicker at resolving renders if enabled.

Damn, not even the fappening fucked that site up that much how US elections did.
Thanks, /pol/.

i told you why because you'd need 1000 gpus to have it look smooth. think about throwing grains of sand on a table one at a time. This guys demo throws enough to kind of made the table sandy. imagine how many more grains you have to throw to actually have no place where you can see the table's surface

I thought that was where "deep learning" comes in, nVidia wouldn't just lie would they?

if is ray traced they use so much fucking denoising they might as well have not bothered. looks like fullbright ass

i told you they said on their stream they don't fully raytrace

Man, Quake 2 fucking sucks. Quake 1 and Quake 3 are great, but Quake 2 is godawful.
