@youlikekrabbypattiesdontyo9818 Depends on what you need it for. I do 3D rendering which requires an NVidia card for their IRAY rendering engine which is NVidia only. Anything else would revert to CPU rendering and be very slow.
The extra effort put into adding Cheats for Portal RTX is actually pretty sweet but the impostor light fixture is kind of bizarre. Nvidia themselves showed off how easy it was to modify a blue lantern from Morrowind to have physically accurate lighting, and I assume making the light bulb have an emissive property would have been even easier. My best guess is there wasn’t enough light fixtures in Portal to warrant the effort.
Nope - they just didn´t attach the light to the fixture, it is just a point in space which doesn´t move on collision. An emissive texture would work (if you also deleted the original light), however would be less efficient than putting a good ol' classic point light on the spot. This is a correct and modern implementation still.
@@jeantuathail I wouldn't say correct implementation since the fixture was meant to move dynamically, keeping it as a point light is a poor demonstration of what RTGI can achieve without artificial lighting.
The best ray tracing example i had (except of the bouncy balls) was a cube riding in front of me in the air duct and being mirrored by all walls at the same time.
Emissive materials used as a light are way less efficient than other types of lights, so I'm guessing making the light bulb realistic wasn't worth it since you can't make it swing otherwise
That does make sense, Portal with RTX is already the most demanding graphical mod to date, it needs all the optimization it can muster. The room you start in also already seems to be performance intensive even with this optimization, I guess all the glass in the room could be the culprit.
The glass definitely doesn't help. As much as they say this is complete full on ray tracing it actually isn't. There are no caustics which is the heaviest thing to render and make rendering realistic glass hell. If they enabled the light bulb as a purely emissive material with no additional light and enabled caustics then image in that room would just be a noisy mess
Not using an emissive material wasn't necessarily a mistake on their part. RTX Remix only runs as a layer between DirectX and whatever is shown on screen, so it has no direct effect on the game world. The reason for why the light remains static is because it's that way in the original map, and they implemented a converter that just converted all Source map lights into light sources that could be used by their RTX layer. This is good because it means that they didn't have to invent some new original RTX map format, and vanilla Portal maps work out of the box. It also allows creating custom maps even without having access to any RTX Remix software
3070 user here. i think ray tracing is not quite ready yet. i still need an aggressive DLSS to get 60+ fps in any ray traced game at 1440p. i played portal RTX with performance or ultra performance DLSS and i got around 70fps. i get 50fps with performance DLSS in cyberpunk. only control ran really well with quality DLSS at around 80fps. that being said, DLSS works really well, and except for a couple of bloom flickers i can't tell DLSS and native apart. for now i'd say you can get a good experience just watching RTX videos on youtube, since it often feels like you're just playing a tech demo that will eventually be the standard.
@@simpson6700 I have the previous gen the 2070s, and I got between 40-50 fps on low settings at 720p. I can definitely do without the ray tracing for now and I think with certain games the screenspace reflections are pretty good anyway. I still get amazed at water reflections in Half Life 2!
Fun fact: the fact that airboats aren't locked behind sv_cheats inspired a memerun category where instead of portals you use airboats to complete the test chambers, since you can get in from one side and get out on the other to help you cross gaps. They can also be spawned in walls, and there's no collision check between the player and the seat when you get in, so you can use it to clip through walls. Also it's interesting at 5:00 that Chell is t-posing in the reflection. I figured she was always animated but maybe she's only animated when you can see yourself through a portal? Seems like a strange optimization since it can't be taking up that much processing power. Video about the run from Msushi: ua-cam.com/video/H4q3iiAjKcI/v-deo.html
Regarding the lightbulb at the start: Powerful lights that are supposed to light up an entire room are seldom emissive lights, as they cannot be sampled like bespoke lights, creating more noise. It's not really laziness. Even in offline renders, it's not uncommon to place "fake" point lights under bulbs or other sources of light to properly illuminate the room. It might be laziness not parenting it to the light fixture, but there might also be a reason, as maybe some lights are set as "non-moving", improving performance in some way. Not even path tracing can get by without cheats.
You can't parent lights in the *normal* Source Engine, the only "light" entity that you can parent is the env_projectedtexture which is a flashlight with dynamic lights. Edit: I forgor the light_dynamic, but no one remembers it though. It's a basic light that illuminates the lightmaps (pixels) of the lighting, it doesn't do any direct lighting calculation.
@@gustavodutra3633 I didn't expect that limitation, curious. Do you know why? Moving lights are allowed though right. If they are, I can't see why parenting them to another object would be problematic.
@@GreenDave113 The "light" entity is mostly used by the pre-baked light compiler used by the Engine, you can't move it because the engine itself doesn't compile the light. But the light entity still stored in the map for processing basic lighting on moving objects, props for example, it does only ambient lighting, basic shading and stuff like that. They could modify the engine to make the light entity movable, but the RTX remix doesn't do that it only "overlays" the assets used by the game and don't directly modify it, so most of engine's limitations are still there.
NVIDIA has actually come up with a clever solution for this called ReSTIR, which is apparently used in Portal RTX. ReSTIR essentially allows spatial and temporal reuse of known good paths, essentially letting the path tracer prioritise paths that it knows contributed the most to the image both in neighbouring pixels and in past frames. Knowing this I assume that the point light is either an oversight from earlier in development or a necessity due to a limitation in how Remix can procedurally generate the material maps (ie it may need to piggyback off the existing light source metadata in the engine to determine what surfaces should emit light).
There are a few more codes you missed, like the one under a radio or on a milk carton. It took me forever to get close enough to scan one under office chairs.
To cheat: - act dishonestly or unfairly in order to gain an advantage, especially in a game or examination Welp, time to use the hundreds of airboats to gain an advantage in portal!
You missed a QR code in test chamber 17 when you were supposed to incinerate the companion cube there was a code in the incinerator on the right hand side. My QR code scanner couldn't read it because of all the flames and smokes.
hey klik! i tried running hammer editor in this branch of portal and to my surprise it opened a certain map made for sfm with ray traced lights. The map contains a func_reflective_glass brush and it is reflecting everything around. Maybe you could get the hammer working properly cuz it is just janky
If you're planning on doing more Half Life 2 in Portal RTX videos make sure to enable the 2D skybox in "Step 3. Sky Textures". It makes the game look more like actual HL2 (without the 3d skybox though)
the lightbulb issue might be that remix is replacing the original "light" entity instead of actually adding emission to the model, if the original wasn't a light_dynamic
I see people mentioning the code under the radio, but there's also one behind the security cameras. Probably lots of these scattered in places like this.
I dig the noisy look actually. If it were random per frame, it would be exactly film grain, a visual effect that Valve manually added to Left 4 Dead. With ray tracing (in Blender at least) the noise seems to be consistent across frames unless you randomise the seed.
It should already be random if the game is using temporal accumulation, which I assume it is since I can see some classic signs of it accumulating samples. Since temporal accumulation reuses samples across multiple frames there needs to be a way to have each frame contain a meaningfully different set of samples to add to the accumulated output, and the easiest and most obvious way to do that is to simply randomise the seed each frame to change the directions that rays are being traced in.
ok, I remember them showing off their high quality companion cube model and then getting to the companion cube and it was normal, I was really disappointed, I had no idea I had to enable that with a cheat lol
they could have also parented the light to the light fixture so it sways with it, Lazy deving 101 (which is what this tool will mostly be used for sadly, unless modders really go all out)
I didnt know these codes went different places, the only one I scanned, which wasnt in the video, was inside the incinerator that you drop the companion cube in
The veiwmodels actually work just fine in non RTX Portal. I don't know why they are messed up in the RTX version. maybe shadow/reflection calculations?
i tried running this using a 2080 super. 5 minutes into the game i crapped out closed the game. this dude just casually spawning boats like its nothing.
there are more QR codes throughout the game. Find a room with a projector in it and wait for the slides to change, a QR code is shown on one of the slides.
i swear to god the most annoying thing about this is that the alternative cubes get erased each time you restart the game (at least i think they do). so tedious having to put them all in again.
This game plays well on my RTX 3090, but I do need to use the performance or ultra performance dlss to get a good frame rate for 2560x1600 resolution monitor (I'm have M1 Macbook Air using parsec on my desktop pc)
Since, as far as I know, Remix just replaces all already existing lights with RTX lights, the "fake" light under the lightbulb seems to be just a remnant of Source map-making.
I'm willing to bet that the original game didn't have a light there. Valve uses mostly baked lighting.
