Nvidia's missing tech demos

[DavidGraham]

I can't get the garage ray tracing demo to work on my 2080Ti, it keeps crashing.

Also the list is missing three demos, the Adrianne demo from the GTX 8800 era featuring a model, and the Dawn demo, featuring a fairy during the FX era, also the New Dawn demo featuring the same fairy, during the Kepler era.


Basically all the demos featuring girls or models are missing!

No crashes here so far and did not make any setup changes. Installation defaults to Windows 8 compatibility. Right click your Design Garage icon and check compatibility tab - maybe changing will resolve issue. Also check permissions.

Edit: Design Garage seems to be using a denoiser when rotating/getting different car view though not sure if it's Optix (Kepler introduction).
