I really hate how Nvidia slaps "RTX" brand on many rendering technique and stuff. like RTX IO and RTX Skin

Hey To anyone wanting to know why the maps from base HL2 maps are messed up when put into HL2 RTX's demo its because HL2 RTX uses the pre aniversery build of HL2 so downgrade HL2 to the pre aniversery build using steam then put the maps in HL2 RTX's demo

@outer oriole 👆
winter wing
but they do work and you don't need to copy any files
Just edit gameinfo.txt replace all hl2 lines with |all_source_engine_paths|..\Half-Life 2\hl2 and it will load from base HL2 if it's on the same drive
eg:
game_lv "|all_source_engine_paths|..\Half-Life 2\hl2/hl2_lv.vpk"
game+mod "|all_source_engine_paths|..\Half-Life 2\hl2/hl2_sound_vo_english.vpk"
game+mod "|all_source_engine_paths|..\Half-Life 2\hl2/hl2_pak.vpk"
game "|all_source_engine_paths|..\Half-Life 2\hl2/hl2_textures.vpk"

Tesselation + Vertex displacement is what you're looking for.
Yes, it is possible, but it is a very specific feature, hardly something to prioritize, I think 
That Megageometry tech is hot stuff. If it was brought to remix, we could achieve both tesselation and nanite style LOD system, remaining only texture based displacement to implement (maybe as another option to POM in remix menu like, raymarching, quadtree and displacement 
)

last time i tested this i didnt have that issue. Though if you're planning to use remix with hl2, its easier to use the existing hl2rtx engine or the portal rtx games
and just copy the rest of the hl2 content to those

Gotcha, so same install setup, but for the HL RTX game instead?

you might need to start it as hl2rtx, if that's where you copied the contents to
because hl2rtx has its own client.dll that has a lot of remix-related fixes

ill try messing with this myself, where did yall get skurtyy's rtx.conf?
regal sphinx
ur good, it seems like at least hl2rtx's engine, the render targets dont work?
i dont see them at all on my end, but they work fine in gmod and portal prelude rtx
teal horizon
I could try portal again, but the trees weren't working at that point
regal sphinx
i think those require a specific remix build, you can grab the remix build from portal rtx since its a lot newer than prelude's
or dont update it, it should work fine as-is

Hey yall, trying to run skurtyskirt's HL2 rtx mod, and have had weird issues whe...
I think I gotta update the remix version, because we're back to this again:

do r_3dsky 0 in the console

Should I try doing it through Portal with RTX?
regal sphinx
you can, but i would recommend moving over portal rtx's remix build to prelude, as prelude has working NPC eyes, and other stuff.
copy the d3d9.dll from PortalRTX/bin/.trex/ to prelude's

ty sir

Talked to Skurty, and he recommended I just try playing the game through GmodRTX, which he says would be the more stable version compared to regular HL2
regal sphinx
yeah that's the easiest way, follow the pinned guide here

Was able to get it mostly working, but it's still pretty jank at the moment. I'ma wait until either the official HL2:RTX comes out, or someone is able to make something a bit more stable.

is it possible to load other maps in hl2 rtx?

I’ll start off, with the 3rd image, on the bottom right, it simply looks as if the PortalRTX mod is still in RTX-Remix/mods folder. The whole gman instance is fucked out the ass no matter what, but since the anniversary update, the RTX conf file has been fucked, I may try to take some time to fix most of it at some point and get back to ya
