![]() ![]() i know this said portĪnd again it was a prototype that Nvidia rushed it to take over and do the garbage that everyone is stuck with it atm. IMO they shouldn't touch OGL part at all, better focus on RTX part. That is the answer why "they" chose this port - one programmer(not from Nvidia) chose it to work in his spare time. Other NVIDIA GPUs such as the 1050Ti or the 980 do not support RTX, however they will be able to do ray traced effects with this new update. VKPT and Q2VKPT were created by Christoph Schied as a spare-time project to validate the results of computer graphics research in an actual game.It's Q2VKPT who started from Q2PRO sources, Q2RTX is based on Q2VKPT. Back in January, I wrote that Quake II was the best argument for Nvidia’s ray-tracing graphics cards.Obviously, the company heard me, because it has released its own RTX Remaster of the classic. I played the very first Q2 RTX on my GTX 1080: The GTX 1080 doesn't have tensor cores but it now supports NVIDIA RTX. Worse is that someone has even shown a demo of working Raytracing using WebGL/OpenGL that looks better than what we have now on RTX and less taxing. Some of the other improvements include a removal of the NVIDIA Vulkan Ray Tracing extension, since it has been replaced by the vendor neutral extension now. ![]() Thanks for this bit of info ! I'll be checking out Q2XP. With the release of Quake II RTX 1.6.0 it didn't just bring AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) but upgraded many parts of the game with new features too. This is how This port should look like without the RTX, with an option to use GLQ2 with mods like the neural upscale. Nvidia should had Given a freaking option to deactivate RTX but keeping the textures and model improvements.īut no, they wanted to sell prototype video cards using a badly made prototype test of Raytracing using vulkan. Global lighting effects, including realistic reflections, refraction, shadows, ambient occlusion and global illumination are a result of the path-traced. If someone wanted to play Quake2 open GL with a better port, There is Yamagi or Q2XP, this second is mile better than RTX. Why the HECK someone wants to do that if Nvidia was lazy to pick it up a garbage source port, when they had something better to work on it like Quake 2 RTX or even Yamagi? You sacrifice the Ray Tracing and as such it will look like the original from the 90's It would probably run even slower, though, since I recall Half Life being a little more detailed.Originally posted by tale underchica:If you want to play if you don't have an RTX card, then put this in the launch options. Half Life seems like the sort of game where the ray traced lighting would really shine (ha!). J5:13 PM Quake II RTX Gameplay - Why Global Illumination Is So Demanding Missed the GamesBeat Summit excitement Don't worry Tune in now to catch all of the live and virtual. ![]() ![]() I do really hope someone makes a mod like this for Half Life. If you go back to the OpenGL shader, those parts arent anywhere near as dark. Something I noticed in this game is that the dark scenes are really dark, kinda reminiscent of Doom 3, but you don't have the flashlight. If you really can't play Quake 2 while RTX is ON then instead of turning RTX to OFF, play Quake 2 with the 'Berserker' quake 2 engine. Thanks for the tip, the game actually launches that way but with no ray tracing it's not worth it lol. Quake II RTX: Re-Engineering a Classic with Ray Tracing Effects on. Use the launch option '+set vidrtx 0' (without the quotes) to launch in OpenGL. I remember when Doom 3 came out, they made a big deal about how they were realistically modeling light and shadow. Quake II is a 1997 first-person shooter video game developed by id Software and published by. I can't help but wonder how much the ray traced graphics alter the actual game, though. I was 13 when it came out, and I didn't get even a half decent gaming PC until a couple of years later. The remastered version, it seems, will not follow the path carved by Quake II RTX, which primarily focused on leveraging the ground-breaking ray-tracing technology and improved textures. It's probably heresy to admit this here, but I don't think I've ever actually played Quake II. As I recall, 35 FPS was considered reasonably good back when Quake II came out, heh. The launch option +set vidrtx 0 will launch the game in OpenGL renderer, in case you just want to play the game natively on Linux but don't have an rtx card or something like that To play natively on LInux just install yamagi-quake2 directly from your Linux repository, no need to download Q2RTX just to play the same OpenGL version. 4K is sorta kinda playable, to the tune of about 35 FPS. Gave this a shot with my 2080 Ti just now. ![]()
