RTGI and RT shadows are new right? the old one just had reflections if my memory is right.

Were there since 22 I believe.

Went and checked your closer than I was. 22 had reflections/transparent reflections/shadows and AO and 23 had all those plug RT DDGI (dynamic diffuse gi).

Ark Survival Evolved seems to use hardware Lumen, at native resolution (2K and 4K), the 3080 is as fast as or faster than 7900XTX.

The benchmark seems somewhat awkward and misleading as they neglected to include IHV upscaling (DLSS, FG, FSR) in the results. These days more often than not a gamer will use their GPU upscaler in cases where performance is lacking, similar to use of rBAR and SAM but without the possible chance enabling results in a performance decline.

Gray Zone Warfare to Support NVIDIA DLSS 3 and Ray Traced Enhanced Lumen

Today, NVIDIA announced that the upcoming tactical FPS game Gray Zone Warfare will support DLSS 3 (Frame Generation) and RT Lumen.

wccftech.com

Today, NVIDIA announced that the upcoming tactical first-person shooter game Gray Zone Warfare will support DLSS 3 (Frame Generation) from day one, accelerating performance on GeForce RTX 40 Series graphics cards. As with any game with built-in DLSS 3 support, Gray Zone Warfare will also feature Reflex, which any owner of GeForce GTX 900 Series GPUs and newer will be able to activate for up to 50% reduction in system latency. Last but not least, the Unreal Engine 5 powered game will support the hardware accelerated ray-traced version of Lumen lighting to deliver cutting-edge visuals.

Gray Zone Warfare was included in our list of the most anticipated shooter games. It is scheduled to launch this year on Steam Early Access, although the developers plan to keep it there for a few years while they implement the full feature set and content. The vast (42 square kilometers) open world island map inspired by the landscapes of Laos will offer an immersive sandbox experience, while the unique health system aims to simulate human body injuries in a much more realistic way than any shooter.

Looks like Dragon Dogma 2 will have Path Tracing, a new mod is released that unlocks full Path Tracing in the game, however it's still incomplete as the game lacks proper denoisers, this might change in the future when the game officially supports path tracing.

Right now users can activate path tracing and enjoy far better shadows and lighting, if a bit noisy at the moment, DLSS is advised here as it works best to minimize the noise in motion.

Dragon’s Dogma 2 Now Has a Path Tracing Mod to Download

Modder 'EXXXcellent' has released a new mod that adds proper Path Tracing to Capcom's latest game, Dragon's Dogma 2.

DF take on Dragon's Dogma 2 path tracing mod, apparently you can increase the samples per pixels to 4, and the bounces to 7.

It looks phenomenal. Some scenes like at 1:35 show a generational improvement IMO. Is it possible for someone to hack a denoiser into it?

After Dragon's Dogma 2, modders are activating path tracing in all of the titles that use the RE engine.

Take a look at the massive difference to visuals when Path Tracing is activated in RE4 Remake.

 

[GhostofWar]

Don't expect capcom to officially patch this into anything but I hope going forward they consider giving their customers the option to enable it. The cynical side of me thinks they will release the remakes again in a path traced version in the future

Some of the differences don’t make sense to me. For example, why is there such a difference in direct sunlight color & intensity in outdoor scenes? That implies it’s an artistic decision and not related to raster vs PT.

It’s unlikely capcom will spend money on older RE titles but maybe there’s a sliver of hope they do something with dragons dogma.
