Garry's Mod

[lament quartz]

It still upscales it to 2048

[compact blaze]

oh no

[night bramble]

So the model needs more info aka needs higher res bas texture?

[lament quartz]

no

the model just not for 2048

you need to change 2048 to 1024

in the
ai/PBR/eval_norm.py
ai/PBR/eval_rough.py
ai/PBR/eval_disp.py

files

[keen rivet]

roughness done

generating displacements

[lament quartz]

hmmm

[keen rivet]

no clue waht that is but it looks kinda cool

[lament quartz]

not the best yeah

[compact blaze]

these look ai generated lmao

[lament quartz]

but this isn't

[compact blaze]

are these sonic's shoes?

[lament quartz]

yeah

OH MY GOD

[tulip silo]

The fuck

???

[keen rivet]

is that meant to be mario 64 toad?

[lament quartz]

hahaha

no

[lament quartz]

oh no, everything is good

i just need to train ai even more

i have the same results on a very different textures than gmod

[keen rivet]

1688/2007 displacements

i might not be able to upload all of this lol

[lament quartz]

Wooow

[keen rivet]

it begins

[lament quartz]

Wait

Stop it

You'll get an error

@keen rivet

[keen rivet]

why

[lament quartz]

Edit the write.py script

[lament quartz]

And comment the metallness writing

And the very bottom

You have no metallness so it'll throw an error

[keen rivet]

?

that correct?

[lament quartz]

Exactly

Perfect

[keen rivet]

great

[lament quartz]

Yup

Good luck 🍀

[tulip silo]

RIP 82c RTX 4090

[lament quartz]

Now the CPU

[lament quartz]

Show the CPU temps

[keen rivet]

oh temps

hold on

[lament quartz]

Oh that's not that bad as I thought

[tulip silo]

Tjunction at 86c

nice

[lament quartz]

Well hope it'll write quick

[keen rivet]

34%

[lament quartz]

I wanna see how's it looks rn

Hell

Wanna see so bad

[keen rivet]

its writing

42%

[lament quartz]

[lament quartz]

How's it going?

[lament quartz]

Wooah

[lament quartz]

How about now?

[keen rivet]

just finished

as soon as you sent that

[lament quartz]

YEEEAH

Waiting for the screenshots

I'm so hyped rn

[keen rivet]

recreated the screenshot earlier its not as cinematic

wait i dont think any of the textures loaded

[lament quartz]

Check the logs file

In the octotex

[keen rivet]

theres no logs folder

[lament quartz]

Not the folder

[keen rivet]

oh file

[lament quartz]

But the file

I've mistyped

[keen rivet]

wtf

I FORGOT TO SAVE

🤦‍♂️

[lament quartz]

Ohhh

Waiting from scratch I think

[keen rivet]

yeah

its late so i'm gonna leave it going overnight and return in the morning

[lament quartz]

Okie dokie

Good night bro

❤️

[keen rivet]

Goodnight

[compact blaze]

Is this gmod?

[lament quartz]

Probably

[compact blaze]

@lament quartz is it bad they forgot to save?

[lament quartz]

Yeah

[meager oar]

is octahedrayal the UI thingy?

[lament quartz]

I've made the changes in the GitHub branch so if you update OctoTex, the changes will be there

[lament quartz]

Yeah

[meager oar]

wat do i do to add POM?

[lament quartz]

That's for converting normals in normalsdx to octohedral

[meager oar]

oh

[lament quartz]

Update the OctoTex from github

Then you can just open gui

[meager oar]

yea i have the latest one

[lament quartz]

And in the ai tab press generate pom

Then press save

That's if you already have the mod

From OctoTex

[lament quartz]

But load the mod from console

Oh wait

Wait

You don't need to load

Cuz you already did everything

[meager oar]

oh yea

[lament quartz]

Ok just press "generate pom"

And write it

That's it

[meager oar]

ok

[tulip silo]

@lament quartz does PBR use AI ESRGAN now

[lament quartz]

Not esrgan butbyeah

There's two types

[tulip silo]

What model is it

[lament quartz]

You can generate by algorithms

Or by ai

[lament quartz]

My own

Idk what architecture btw

[tulip silo]

So there's a non ai fallback generator?

[lament quartz]

You can generate non ai one

In the algorithms tab

[tulip silo]

hmmm

Good for me

[lament quartz]

And after that, you can generate pom for example

With ai

[lament quartz]

But

For now the metallness is disabled

And I think that it will not write without pom

[tulip silo]

So pom is only generated by AI?

[lament quartz]

Yeas

And you need pom for writing for now

I'll fix that tomorrow

If you want to write without pom

[tulip silo]

I can remove it

[lament quartz]

You need to comment the displacements lines in the write.py

[lament quartz]

Yup probably

And if you want metalness to write

Just uncomment the metalness lines

[meager oar]

do i open the octahedraly using cmd? cause when i write python octahedraly.py it gives tis

D:\Steam\steamapps\common\GarrysMod\OctoTex-master>octahedraly.py
Generating...: 0it [00:00, ?it/s]

[tulip silo]

no

Use PBR

PBR.py

[meager oar]

i have already

pbr.py

[tulip silo]

Octahedral.py is dependent on the normal.py in generation

[lament quartz]

It's only for GUI and ai

[tulip silo]

because of the texture directory

[lament quartz]

Do not use it with cmd

[lament quartz]

Yeah that's for ai

Cuz ai generates only the directx type of normals

You probably can use it from cmd, but it's for DX normals to octohedral convertation

And you'll need to put DX normals to the normalsdx folder

Basically when you generating normals with ai, it writes to the normalsdx folder, and then convert them to octohedral in the normals folder

[meager oar]

btw wats the emission folder for? i have seen it since the start of the tool

[lament quartz]

For emission

Glowing materials

But it's not implemented rn

But I want to make it in the future

With ai of course

Cuz idk what kind of algorithm should be to declare the emissive parts in the texture

That's just unreal idk

But for tomorrow I'll throw the "file not found" error away

For writing

So you'll be able just to upscale the textures, or generate only roughness, or pom

Without anything else

And maybe add the feature for the stable diffusion, for img2img thing

To make all the textures more realistic

Or otherwise cartoonish

Or anything else

That's what I did with sonic btw

Textures are more detailed, and the original textures have no those details

[lament quartz]

Basically the textures here almost fully ai generated, and PBR and albedo

[tulip silo]

The problem I have rn is texture is not seamless

[lament quartz]

What textures actually?

[tulip silo]

Isn't there a stable diffusion model that does this

[lament quartz]

The roughness?

[tulip silo]

No no

The tiling effect is very visible

[lament quartz]

No no no, I'm doing img2img with low noise

So the textures almost seamless cuz there's an original vive

[lament quartz]

See the bricks?

[tulip silo]

What is this called

[lament quartz]

Oh yeah, I didn't noticed

[lament quartz]

But tiling will not work in the img2img I think

I was not able to find an option

[tulip silo]

Hmm

[lament quartz]

Maybe implement this by hands

[tulip silo]

Alright

@lament quartz https://github.com/camenduru/seamless

[lament quartz]

But I need img2img

But still thanks

I'll look into this

Yaay, I'm very happy that I've made this tool

[tulip silo]

Indeed

But python is very restrictive

Imagine you can load in a USD capture

And see everything you've made

And place light sources

this will require experience to implement

But your tool only does PBR textures

[lament quartz]

Yeah, I made this tool for textures enchantment

Btw I've forgot that I wanted to implement the models loading

Will try tomorrow

As I understand I need to convert USD to USDA, and then I can basically parse the models vertices and etc

I already have the vertices and uv drawer in the OctoTex

"material preview"

So then I just need to draw it

I've done that before in my game engines

But OpenGL for python sucks rly bad

[tulip silo]

Do you think we can load the entire USD capture within your tool

Like is it possible?

Probably a renderer problem because OpenGL and python

[lament quartz]

I mean parse the USDA to scrap the models, then convert them to "fbx for example" and then view through OctoTex

And write back

Why not

But I need an info, how to replace a model

Just an example of replacement

How's it looks

I wish I can do that in C++

But I have a big problems with compilation for windows

And I don't want to dig into it

So python is my choice

[lucid parcel]

USD actually has a pretty good python library that you can use to open USD / USDA files and get properties out of. tends to be more stable than trying to parse the text file yourself.

[lament quartz]

Thanks ❤️

I'll try it

[lucid parcel]

there's also an open source USD viewing tool called usdview, though it won't support our mdl materials.

[lament quartz]

I'll do viewer by myself, but still thanks

[lucid parcel]

👍

[lament quartz]

If I'll be able to get vertices, uv, etc, then showing them on the screen will not be a problem

[lucid parcel]

here's where we use the USD c++ api to load meshes at runtime - the python function names are generally the same
https://github.com/NVIDIAGameWorks/dxvk-remix/blob/main/src/lssusd/usd_mesh_importer.cpp

[lament quartz]

If the USD has an info about textures hashes used in models, then it'll be super sweet

[lucid parcel]

it does, that's part of the materials that are bound to the model

[lament quartz]

That's amazing

[lucid parcel]

we load the materials here
https://github.com/NVIDIAGameWorks/dxvk-remix/blob/main/src/dxvk/rtx_render/rtx_mod_usd.cpp#L342

[lament quartz]

Thanks

[lucid parcel]

again, python is similar, but generally simpler - instead of having to deal with tfTokens you just use strings

[lament quartz]

I'll dig into it, thanks for everything

[lucid parcel]

oh, and I posted up a rough python script a while ago for mesh processing - though we did away with the need for most of this, it's still an example of the python API (though it's also using an omniverse API to load the stage, which you'd need to skip)
#1096847508002590760 message

[lament quartz]

I can't right now cuz the PC with rtx GPU is in the office

[lucid parcel]

yeah no worries - just trying to dump as much useful info as I can.

[lament quartz]

Thanks for help

[lament quartz]

I think I'll rewrite a GUI

With html css and js

Web ui basically

I have a good experience with web so it'll be more advanced and gorgeous

And no more OpenGL packages problems

[rich badge]

like serving a local server for ui?

[lament quartz]

Yup

[rich badge]

that's a great idea

[lament quartz]

Like automatic1111 or comfy UI

[tulip silo]

oh nice

thank you

[lament quartz]

I already have a game engine that uses webui for the map editor and compilation buttons

[lament quartz]

Lol, no problems bro

[lament quartz]

So I just reuse my old code

[tulip silo]

i was wondering what if we do some tweaks to the code to make it run in C++, so that we can compile it into a windows executable through Cmake

im no programmer btw but it would be nice

having a application designed for windows only

[lament quartz]

Nah don't want to dig into windows compilation

From Linux

I've tried already with no success

And don't want to

Funny thing is that I already know how to compile a c++ code through terminal without any problems FOR ANDROID, and Linux compilation ( easy as piece of cake )

But windows 💀

It's much easier to just download a visual studio really

[lament quartz]

Im thinking about three.js

That lib is able to render PBR outta box

And I already have experience with it

[tulip silo]

oh nice

i know three.js

but its a webGL thing isnt it

same with babylon.js

[lament quartz]

Yeah

But it serves alot of abstractions so

[keen rivet]

@lament quartz

i dont think it wrote the albedo maps properly

hmm idk whats up but it doesnt look right lol

[lucid parcel]

displaceIn is way too high, I think. scale it down in the remix menu and it should look much better

I suspect the displaceIn value wasn't set in the material, and it defaults to 1 (which is often way too high)

[keen rivet]

ahh okay right

i reckon they might be inverted

lol

okay its better i updated dxvkremix

works really nicely on the roof

its really nice on the grass too

@lament quartz good stuff with the ai models they work really nicely

[keen rivet]

you can hardly notice the tiling problems really tbh

[meager oar]

Tis one Luks gud

[meager oar]

That yellow sofa Luks beautiful

[keen rivet]

extracted more textures ready for upscaling

[compact blaze]

Is it bad I think this looks worse?

[lament quartz]

So sad that the size is 32gb

[lament quartz]

If you look closely, you'll notice that the areas that should be rough, actually rough, and not specular as in previous version of OctoTex

[lament quartz]

gta 5 grass

looks similar

[compact blaze]

Tbh I liked the way it looked before

[lament quartz]

You can use the algorithms then

It's still can be used

You're not forced to use ai

You can generate PBR as it was in previous versions of OctoTex, and then just use ai to generate pom for example, or normals

So, I'm not forcing you to use ai ❤️

[keen rivet]

@lament quartz idk why but write.py isn't writing replacements properly

[lament quartz]

What in logs?

[keen rivet]

oh

[vocal hill]

displacement

[lament quartz]

Hmm

[vocal hill]

yea doing displacements worked

[lament quartz]

So bad that I have no electricity now

Can't test anything

😔

[lament quartz]

R u testing OctoTex too?

[vocal hill]

ye

on my map

unreleased

[vocal hill]

this actually looks pretty cool

[meager oar]

Same 👨‍🔧

[keen rivet]

cursed

black mesa 3d printed floors

[compact blaze]

What do the scientists look like?

[keen rivet]

mostly the same

[lament quartz]

k i had no time

these ficking asslickers turned off electricity for a whole day

[keen rivet]

rip

[lament quartz]

and im hurrying up now cuz deadlines

[tulip silo]

damn.

[lament quartz]

Now I'm going home

And changed nothing in the branch

👍🏼🔥

[meager oar]

How do I change the POM attributes in remix menu like what's the name of the options that changes its looks?

[meager oar]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3038500967

[lucid parcel]

it's on the rendering tab in a Displacement section

[lucid parcel]

does Garry's Mod use the same r_3dsky setting that HL2 uses?

[rich badge]

Yes, otherwise remix will pick the 3d skybox camera

[lucid parcel]

could someone try using this setting instead of disabling the 3dsky?

[rich badge]

On my way

[lucid parcel]

It should let the 3d skybox work normally for source engine games.

[rich badge]

It does indeed!

This is what happens if I pass throught the map boundries

[lucid parcel]

umm, is that good or bad?

[rich badge]

Looks 2D

This is how it normally looks

[lucid parcel]

so the trees are lower than they should be?

(just trying to understand your images, but it's hard to place your images relative to eachother)

[rich badge]

Yea they are like at background

[rich badge]

I will send a video

[lucid parcel]

thanks

[rich badge]

Here

Everything related to fog outside of volumetrics are off yet it is quite foggy

[lucid parcel]

Thanks! I'll send that to the engineer who implemented that

from the ground level inside the map, does it look reasonable?

[rich badge]

It looks low-res and as if its not raytraced at all

[rich badge]

This image

This is with volumetrics entirely disabled (disabling postfx fog or legacy fog remapping doesn't work for some reason)

[hallow wasp]

@rich badge Interesting, I see that the physics gun is large, so it's around the skybox geometry? And not in the boundaries of the playable area gm_construct? Or I'm mistaken

[rich badge]

Its inside the map boundries the place I've shown in the video is not accesible on foot

[rich badge]

I think this might be due to the lack of distant light Nevermind it lacks the gi

[hallow wasp]

This is the skybox geometry?

[rich badge]

Yes, when auto sky detection is off

Also not sure if this is expected or not, its not shown in the debug view (when auto sky is on)

[hallow wasp]

In Source, there are 2 cameras for world and 3d sky. Source sends us both cameras, so we assume all the geometry that is rendered by sky camera as sky geometry, so it's purely rasterized (no shadows, reflections, will be rendered "as is")

I'm not sure if we receive the both cameras when outside of a playable area marked by a map designer 🤔

The main question is if it's being rendered fine when inside that area...

[hallow wasp]

I wonder why it's so low-res 🤔

[hallow wasp]

Sorry, I'm rewatching that video, and I think I'm mistaken

[meager oar]

Ohh myyyyyyyyyy

Tis is insane 3d skybox working now!

[rich badge]

Anything I can provide?

[hallow wasp]

Ah, finally understood; it's the depth-sorting problem 🙂

[rich badge]

The reason why things overlap each other?

or the low-res look

[hallow wasp]

Ye

[hallow wasp]

Do you have an rtx.conf to quickly check that

[rich badge]

To check what exactly

[hallow wasp]

Oh, nothing there, I just wanted to check if there are some sky-related options to make the sky low-res

[meager oar]

Your name looks familiar, are u the guy who made half life ray traced? His name is also Sultim

[rich badge]

I think no

[hallow wasp]

(yes 🍞)

[rich badge]

I just wanted to say Thank You!

[meager oar]

Yea thanks man hl rt Luks good

[keen rivet]

Oh this is epic

[half viper]

Im gonna cry

[meager oar]

Gmod working for u yet?

[half viper]

Nuh uh

[compact blaze]

thats how it looks like in source 2 lol

besides it aint that big of a deal if the 3d skybox looks a bit differently, if it works it works

[keen rivet]

seems like having the 3d skybox on makes the game more unstable with asset replacements

it'll randomly stop rendering completely

ah its bridge thats crashing

attached dump here

[keen rivet]

https://youtu.be/ijqEtYFwWWo

[keen rivet]

no clue whats happening with this texture what the hell lol

[lucid parcel]

what do the different maps look like for that material?

[keen rivet]

lemme see

oh its transparent what the

is it like that in hl2 lemme check

[lucid parcel]

that's a real strange transparency effect

which maps are those? albedo, roughness, metallic?

[keen rivet]

if i had to guess i think hl2 uses the alpha channel for cubemap masks if specified

[lucid parcel]

does it still do that if you remove the displacement?

[keen rivet]

yeah

[lucid parcel]

I definitely have not tested how transparency and heightmaps interact.
So it happens with just the albedo and roughness?

[keen rivet]

it doesnt do it if i disable replacements entirely though

[lucid parcel]

well that just means the game's original texture doesn't do it

[keen rivet]

its weird it only does it when not up close though i thought it was some broken but cool mipmapping effect at first

[lucid parcel]

If it happens with just transparency and roughness maps, could you make a new video like that, and post up a github issue for it? It's an odd rendering behavior we can probably improve on.

[keen rivet]

sure

the roughness is probably unrelated though

[keen rivet]

that is assuming i don't get distracted whoops

i'll do it now

got water in construct working

and a few other maps

[keen rivet]

@lament quartz do you have any new model updates planned? wondering if i should start upscaling a new batch of textures or leave it for later

[keen rivet]

displacements are really crispy in reference mode lol

[lament quartz]

Yup, but that later

[compact blaze]

I wonder if ray reconstruction will make the shadows look more similar to the one in reference mode

[keen rivet]

God I can’t wait for ray reconstruction

[compact blaze]

Imo it’s best to be cautiously optimistic, tho I am excited as well cause it gives my brain an excuse to play more portal rtx

[keen rivet]

No need for caution the videos they showed says enough

[compact blaze]

I mean this is nvidia we’re talking about and while yes I really like rtx remix, the company as a whole is kinda, eugh for me y’know?

No hate towards any of the devs ofc, I just don’t really like the management

[keen rivet]

Okay you can be cautious while I stay excited how’s that?

[compact blaze]

Sure, sry if I was accidentally being rude I genuinely didn’t wanna invalidate your excitement

[keen rivet]

Nah lol all good

[compact blaze]

I genuinely apologize I just woke up so my brain isn’t fully there yet lol

I’m happy you can be so excited and optimistic

[lament quartz]

ray reconstruction when

[tulip silo]

lay refrustration

[lament quartz]

😭

[keen rivet]

these two glow sprites diagonal from eachother always somehow end up with different hashes each time i start up any map

i've probably clieck ignore texture on them hundreds of times

watch as i try to run one of my all time favourite maps in gmod while rtx remix screams in agony attempting to run it

[rich badge]

Does it make underwater props invisible like it does for me?

I can upload a video if you want

[meager oar]

Yea these two dang textures are annoying

[meager oar]

I think if u disable those two Alpha textures option in Alpha blending the map might stop flickering, some maps I tried stopped flickering after disabling those two options but some are soo stubborn that they still flicker

[rich badge]

This map has something else tho

[meager oar]

the map stops flickering when i disable both the alpha bland options but it luks like this

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3038838514

oh u need to only disable alpha blanded option for gm_fork to stop flickering

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3038839567

now the map luks right with trees

[half viper]

For some reason non of your videos work for me 😭

[meager oar]

cinematic 18 fps exprience https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlD8y12rObI

[rich badge]

Then there should be some noise textures (I think they are) you need to ignore

But that one is wild

[half viper]

The ghosting is real

[lament quartz]

@tulip silo

[tulip silo]

Holy shit

Cubemap support

Yes

[tulip silo]

What gpu do you have lol

18fps quite the cinematic experience

[lament quartz]

i mean, that's a material preview in new gui for octotex

[meager oar]

rtx 2080 super

[tulip silo]

oof thats weak for path tracing

[meager oar]

also is there a new remix menu released? i think im using the old one

[keen rivet]

nope works fine

[rich badge]

try something smaller and put it in the deep water

[rich badge]

That looks real nice btw 💚

[rich badge]

Hmm

I will upload a video of mine

[rich badge]

Can you try in vanilla gm_construct btw

[keen rivet]

k

[rich badge]

Is there anything in the bottom

Those are all floating

[rich badge]

I am reencoding my footage hold on

[rich badge]

Can you send your config btw?

[rich badge]

Thank you, trying with yours now

[rich badge]

Here's how mine looks

[keen rivet]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3038853470

this should help

just uploaded the fixes i used to make water work on construct

[rich badge]

Ah so you're using this all along, what exactly it does?

[keen rivet]

question for you how did you get the sun working in your construct

[keen rivet]

replaces all that water with a simplified one that is consistant so it can be replaced by remix

[rich badge]

Thank you so much, I lost my mind trying to get this working, I even attached a plane mesh and made it water instead tho it was a hassle & doesn't work on other maps

[rich badge]

The terrain texture for the 3d sky, ignored it. It breaks the terrain baking tho

[rich badge]

Should I do somehting with it or its an addon

[keen rivet]

subscribe to it should work

i included a link in the description to the mod for the water for rtx remix which you should install if you dont have that

[rich badge]

I picked that up already 👍

[keen rivet]

it's a modified version of @winter sail's water that gives it a nice blue tint

[tulip silo]

Ah yes, e3 2003 phy_demo

[rich badge]

Have you ever talked about this before? I wonder if everyone else had this for ages

[keen rivet]

i just uploaded it lol

[rich badge]

Ah right, the workshop release date

[keen rivet]

you can see if you scroll up i only did it today

[rich badge]

Uhm is this expected

[keen rivet]

yah it does that

i reckon i can fix it if i try

[rich badge]

How did you btw

Your config doesn't have a fallback light

[keen rivet]

i deleted the skybox in a custom version of construct

[rich badge]

Yea mine had its terrain ignored so

[keen rivet]

yeah i didnt do that cuz other maps used that texture

i used to do that

[rich badge]

Can you upload it to the workshop as well?

[keen rivet]

can do

i wanna make a new version with the skybox moved off to the side instead

since skyboxes can work now

[keen rivet]

nvm cant see an obvious fix

[rich badge]

Is it portals causing this?

[keen rivet]

i think so but idk if theres some material parameter i'm missing that is supposed to make it not do this

yeah idunno

[lament quartz]

👀

[tulip silo]

can we load in custom models?

[lament quartz]

you can on the old one too

[tulip silo]

but even that would require proper UV

[lament quartz]

i can use a plane bro

[rich badge]

What is this 👀

[lament quartz]

new gui for octotex

[rich badge]

Looks sick! Is it web based as you're talking about

[lament quartz]

yeah

it is web based

[keen rivet]

web based 😔
still an upgrade tho

[rich badge]

Are you using webgl or something to view in real time

[lament quartz]

three.js

[rich badge]

Why be sad about this

[tulip silo]

three.js is good

[rich badge]

I have no idea, I just like the idea of connecting a local server from browser for ui rather than packaging a chromium for every app you install (which is what electron does basically)

[tulip silo]

what if we could add octotex within Remix Runtime GUI

have it capture all the assets and then automatically apply PBR within the game

[rich badge]

Why, your pc can't run both at the same time anyway

[tulip silo]

i mean have octotex work within remix

that would be cool

[keen rivet]

remix toolkit will have this feature when it comes out

[keen rivet]

mine can

[rich badge]

Yea, you run at native 🙂

[tulip silo]

i don't think so, it is supposed to be with the creator toolkit

[rich badge]

Not exactly

[tulip silo]

not the actual runtime

[rich badge]

It will be similar to ov

[keen rivet]

yeah i know

i said remix toolkit

[tulip silo]

MB

[rich badge]

Yes, remix toolkit won't run within the game, its like ov with remix related tools

[keen rivet]

ye i know

[rich badge]

The feature @tulip silo was talking about is to have OctoTex remastering game's assets in real time isn't it

[meager oar]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3038868973

[keen rivet]

more assets being remastered

[tulip silo]

see you in 3 hours dude

🫡

[meager oar]

dang wch textures are these for? 4669

[keen rivet]

Random things including all the hl1 maps

[meager oar]

can any of u share your dxvk.conf file i messed sumthin up

[tulip silo]

nice

and this is on WebGL, right?

not using python OpenGL

[lament quartz]

yup

[tulip silo]

nice

looks like it will work for me

🔥

[tulip silo]

wtf

[lament quartz]

idk what is this

[tulip silo]

sus

[lament quartz]

that's sd 1.5

[tulip silo]

concrete looks like carpet

[lament quartz]

haha yeah

[tulip silo]

too high offset

[lament quartz]

im going to make a value changer

or too much space eaten?

[meager oar]

wat if u tried sdxl 0.9?

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3038881759

[lament quartz]

i have 1.0

[meager oar]

dang

[lament quartz]

with refiner

[meager oar]

wats that?

[lament quartz]

thing that makes sdxl even more better

[meager oar]

dang u have 1.0 and have refiner thingy to make it even more better wow

i only tried 1.0 on a free triel that gave 10 tries

[half viper]

Just made a collection for the rtx remix mods

[rich badge]

?

[half viper]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3038922327

[rich badge]

Oh okay

@keen rivet Does your mod contain the functionality of https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2961222721 ?

Like a single addon for remix compatibility would be great

[half viper]

Im proud of my description

[rich badge]

Ah wait this is your addon

lol

[half viper]

Lmfao

[rich badge]

This is still valid tho

@half viper Is this possible with addons?

6) Open the file GarrysMod\garrysmod\lua\menu\custom\_errors.lua and comment out the lines between if ( GetConVarNumber( "mat_dxlevel" ) < 90 ) then and end by prefixing it with --  (or simply remove them) 

Like loading a custom one instead of the vanilla

[half viper]

Im not sure to be honest
I don't remember any addon modifying the menu stuff

[half viper]

Ok just retried running gmod again

It works before replacing stdshaderdx7

But after replacing it
It crashes on startup

Hl2 doesn't leave a mdmp file

im pretty sure its due to gmod itself, not rtx remix

any ideas guys?

[compact blaze]

@lament quartz i wonder does ur water system addon work with rtx remix? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1738302640

[half viper]

Probably won't

[meager oar]

its working but its a transparent square or sumthin

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3038964235

if u luk closely u can see it

u see that sharp square right next to the prop? thats how it luks like

[lament quartz]

Meh I don't think so

I need to rewrite the addon to be more optimized, that's the first step

And then try to get it working with remix

[compact blaze]

yay, cant wait for it to be updated

[half viper]

@keen rivet try using POM for the waves textures!

[lament quartz]

I didn't said that I'll do that, cuz I'm trying to distance myself from addons creation

[compact blaze]

ah ok sry sry

[lament quartz]

Don't need to say sorry ❤️

Maybe I'll try, but that's like a black hole, it may suck me again to the addons creation

[compact blaze]

tbh i just wanna see the water addon be fixed and remade again since it reminds me of the water system in cod mw2 which i really really like

[compact blaze]

https://youtu.be/GeoZIV6VCkw
https://youtu.be/0_KxgDFL5TQ

@lament quartz if u ever get a chance look at these videos, the water effects look amazing

[rich badge]

Yea its too great for a shooter game 🙂

[rich badge]

BF2042's water looks so unnatural tho

[compact blaze]

i sent the video cause it was one of the other videos that showed off mw2's water

[rich badge]

I know you meant mw2 (you've said it lol), just sharing my opinion 👍

[compact blaze]

ah ok lol sry for the confusion

[meager oar]

I like RDR2 and CS2 Water, they look very good wasn't expecting valve to add such detail in cs2 cause it's a competitive game u know like FPS and stuff

[plain blade]

hey does anybody knows why i have no effect after installing rtx remix

[half viper]

Shadermodel?

[plain blade]

no like i dont have raytracing

its just gmod

[night bramble]

you need proper dxvk.conf
and gamefiles replaced
and rtx.conf

[meager oar]

Shoot your gun once if visuals get all fuzzy that means shader module is not 0

[night bramble]

^^

remix ain't drag and drop in this game

[plain blade]

i see everything black

[meager oar]

After shooting? Yea u need dxvk.conf and change shader module in it to 0

I could send u mine but ma electricity went out

[plain blade]

how to change shader module to 0

and how to install dxvk.conf

i have one

[meager oar]

There is a config file called dxvk.conf, it's right next to hl2.exe, open it using notepad and find shader module and change it's value to 0

Now how to get dxvk.conf? Idk I borrowed it from others

[plain blade]

samething

[half viper]

Just create a text file

[plain blade]

my game is crashing

do i need to lower the settings

?

i have rtx 2060

[meager oar]

When does it crash?

[plain blade]

when i boot the map after lua ready

[half viper]

Stdshaderdx7

Dude follow the steps

[plain blade]

what is it? do i need to write somewhere

im stupid monkey brain

[half viper]

No, copy it from portal rtx

[plain blade]

what if i dont have portal

[plain blade]

where can i see the steps

[half viper]

#1116089843479498782 message

#1116089843479498782 message

[lament quartz]

Btw sorry for bothering, do you know a place where I can get a textures with "shadows and details" and without

Oooh wait don't need to

[half viper]

Search free pbr textures lol

[lament quartz]

Nah you don't get it

Look

In some older games, there's a textures with baked in shadows and details like specular Highlights and etc

[half viper]

Yeah

You better replace them entirely

[lament quartz]

And I wanna try to train a model that will remove them

[half viper]

Hmm

[plain blade]

every time i look down it enables rtx but if i look up it disables

[half viper]

That would be definitely hard

[half viper]

Hmm, did you use the bat file provided?

[lament quartz]

Basically I already have a dataset, so I can just take an albedo, normals, generate highlights with shadows on them, and get "baked" textures with a raw one

And then try to train on this dataset

[plain blade]

what bat file?

[half viper]

https://tenor.com/view/yh-gif-25406060

[plain blade]

im a dumbass

[half viper]

Don't say that, you are just jumping over the steps
You gotta do it carefully

[half viper]

The bat file is in the first pinned messages

[lament quartz]

So basically imagine that you open a OctoTex, select a texture, upscale, remove the baked light, and generate pbr

That will be mind blowing

[half viper]

Ik

I get it now

Buttt

Where do we get the same textures but with no baked details?

[plain blade]

there is no bat file

[lament quartz]

Ok read carefully, I'll try to explain more detailed and easier

[half viper]

@plain blade

[lament quartz]

I have a dataset with albedo, normals, roughness and displacements
So I can take a albedo textures with normals, generate fake shadows and highlights on albedo textures with normals, and then I'll have a raw albedo without baked light, and an "old style" textures

And then I'll be able to train on this new dataset

Maybe use a displacements to make a real shadows btw, so actually render them

Not to fake them

[plain blade]

there is no nvidia menu, should i delete 64 bit version?

[half viper]

You are on a beta?

[plain blade]

yes

[half viper]

You should roll back to the main branch

[plain blade]

ok

[half viper]

And redo all the steps

[vocal hill]

I pressed the wrong button and now I think I'm in Ultrakill

[lament quartz]

I need an emoji like that

That's hilarious

[vocal hill]

balls light

[lament quartz]

Lambda balls

[vocal hill]

and btw, highlight materials is off, Idk why it's so red lmao

[lament quartz]

He's just a bit angry

[vocal hill]

I think I got sent to the shadow realm

[winter sail]

Damn thats nice.

[plain blade]

rtx disables after i apply skybox textures

[night bramble]

Sounds like no correct confs

You have dxvk.shadermodel 0 and the dlls replaced?

[plain blade]

yes

oh i fixed it

but i have another problem

the sky is too bright

bytw how to install octotex

[lone arch]

Really cursed

[rich glen]

which method you used

[plain blade]

to what? import skybox textures?

[rich glen]

for gmod rtx

[plain blade]

i just followed some tutorial

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8fI9lrhFIw&t=46s

[rich glen]

oh

[meager oar]

Is that Grigori?

[vocal hill]

yes

it's cause I spawned grigori earlier

[meager oar]

u can change that in rtx remix menu press alt+x and there should be a sky tuning option in the 3rd tab I forgot the name of the tab

[meager oar]

Install Python first from Google, Also a very important step don't forget to tick the PATH option when installing it

[half viper]

https://youtu.be/i_vh01L7uhg?feature=shared

This guy done interesting stuff

[meager oar]

Then after that install octatex and open up it's folder and u will see requirements.txt which has all the modules needed for octatex to work just simply open CMD and Type pip install glib or names of whatever modules u need to install

[half viper]

@arctic trout

[meager oar]

Yea I saw this video

I asked him in the comment section but he only said to remove smoke from particle textures which I didn't understand

[half viper]

Actually this gives me an idea

[plain blade]

that must be THE brightest light ever

[meager oar]

That's a annoying texture that keeps appearing even if we set it as ignore textures

[keen rivet]

no i don't need it

if you delete the game_shader_garrysmod dll you dont need that addon

[half viper]

You sure?

[keen rivet]

yeah

[plain blade]

ok after that, what should i do?

[keen rivet]

you can also do pip install -r requirements.txt

[keen rivet]

in cmd type py main.py

https://youtu.be/_oJcGY3iAnc

[vocal hill]

the heavens above

[vocal hill]

it says what to do at the bottom

[arctic trout]

i just messed around with the textures and removed the smoke particle texture from particle textures and it did that

[half viper]

We need a patch for the lights limit

[keen rivet]

that would be cool

i wish we could convince Rubat (dev at facepunch who works on gmod) to sprinkle us with some updates that would help it work with remix

[half viper]

They wouldn't care about us

[keen rivet]

yeah thats why i wish

[half viper]

Wait you never asked them?

[keen rivet]

i opened an issue on their issues page once

[half viper]

Btw i tried running gmod again with a clean reinstall

Does not work

For some reason my game refuses to run with stdshaderdx7

[rich glen]

Xenthio which method you used to get rtx remix in gmod?

[keen rivet]

what do you mean?

[rich glen]

i mean how did you got rtx remix working in gmod

you used the method that its pinned?

[lament quartz]

hello, anyone is here?

i need a lil help

[plain blade]

which one do i need to install?

[lament quartz]

one for windows

https://imagemagick.org/archive/binaries/ImageMagick-7.1.1-17-Q16-HDRI-x64-dll.exe

@plain blade this one

[plain blade]

ok what do i do now?

[lament quartz]

Data > load

[plain blade]

it doesnt do anything, do i need to put in gmod?

[lament quartz]

read the readme on github page carefully

place the octotex to the gmod folder

like

garrysmod/OctoTex

not
garrysmod/garrysmod/OctoTex

Should be like this > steamapps/common/garrysmod/octotex

[plain blade]

should it look like this: "garrysmod/OctoTex/(all the files)" or like this: "garrysmod/OctoTex/octotex-main/(all the files)"?

[lament quartz]

first one

[plain blade]

nice

now what's the next steps

[plain blade]

help?

[meager oar]

Upscale the textures it should in the 3rd option there's 4x and 8x upscaling choose which ever u want

Then in the Second option there's a option to generate PBR do that

Then go back to the 3rd option and u will see three things below upscaling. normals, Roughness and displacements do all 3 of them and after that just write them

[plain blade]

Damn what will happen if I play multiplayer with rtx remix

And Bytw, how to make water not white

[lament quartz]

Look bro

[compact blaze]

Omg what is this ui? It looks so clean

[lament quartz]

thanks

im making a new gui for octotex

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18SBSMOmS6w

doing a plugins support already

and other cool stuff

like Generating per texture

only for selected

[meager oar]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3038853470 https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1116089843479498782/1153448132672245770/Water.zip

first download the fixes

then the water.zip

open rtx-remix folder then make a mods folder in it right next to captures

[plain blade]

Damn that water looks so realistic that I feel thirsty now

[meager oar]

then make another folder inside mods called gameReadyAssets

place the water folder inside the zip right next to it

and just go in game open up remix menu go to enhancements tab and tick enhanced textures on

bam realistic water

[plain blade]

Do i need to do same thing with octotex? I just saw the video

[meager oar]

yea

all the enhanced stuff go inside the mods folder

[keen rivet]

epic stuff

[lament quartz]

I've uploaded 👀

[meager oar]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3039422961 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3039423011

dang

but in distance its very blurry

its 1000 value maybe tats why

[lament quartz]

Btw soon in the GUI there'll be an option to change the strength of the pom

[meager oar]

dang

[meager oar]

for sum reason this water texture is causing the water to flicker

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewY9oHTKL7c

sorry for the wind in the background

[tulip silo]

who's blowing air in the mic

[meager oar]

whats the difference between generate pbr and generate pbr with AI?

which one is better i mean

[tulip silo]

it will use AI trained models to generate AI

non AI ones are regular ones as before

AI ones i think will look better

[meager oar]

oh imma try the AI one then

[tulip silo]

did you download the models first?

[meager oar]

yea

[meager oar]

the ones inside the checkpoints folder right?

[tulip silo]

yes

[meager oar]

oh its working so i have it

dang the UI is smooth and modern looking

[tulip silo]

ofc it is

using Three.js

[lament quartz]

Using bootstrap and custom css

Three.js is only for 3D rendering

[tulip silo]

oh yea

CSS

that always looks nice

@lament quartz is there any other test scenes to use as renderer with three.js

i've seen some examples

[lament quartz]

Yeah there's a lot of examples

Or you mean other scenes in GUI?

[tulip silo]

i mean the cubemap

can we use higher res HDRIs

[lament quartz]

Yeah, I can change them, but I didn't make it changeable

[lament quartz]

Yeah, but not for now

[tulip silo]

hmm

[lament quartz]

You can replace the files btw

But I gonna make the scene settings in GUI

[lament quartz]

Btw after write

You can select a texture

Then upscale, change it

And then press write button right in the material tab

And it'll rewrite the edited texture

In the mod

Basically it just mirrors the same button from main tab

For now

Eh the shitty part is that I need to rewrite a bit how the functions are works

[tulip silo]

make it a plugin thing

Like custom HDRI

[lament quartz]

Cuz for now the can do send only the selected texture name

[lament quartz]

Oh that's an idea

Good one

Btw if the tabs are overflowed, main tabs or plugins one, they are becoming scrollable

👀

Ah sorry, I'm just so happy with the GUI

[tulip silo]

btw did you figure out the USD capture importing procedure

[lament quartz]

You mean models?

[tulip silo]

yea

[lament quartz]

Nah, I was fully dived into GUI

[tulip silo]

oh ok

nvm

im proud of you

[lament quartz]

Thanks 😂

Difference is day and night

[tulip silo]

@lament quartz

https://threejs.org/examples/?q=usd#webgl_loader_usdz

[lament quartz]

Yeah?

[tulip silo]

is this the same thing as USD

or is USDZ something else

[lament quartz]

Idk, but I still gonna do my thing in the python

Three.js is only for 3D rendering

And if I'll do USD import, there'll be no needs in three.js's USDZ loader

[lucid parcel]

usdz is just a compressed usd format

[plain blade]

Error "slow_conv2d_cpu" not implemented for 'Half'
If you encounter CUDA out of memory, try to set --tile with a smaller number.
how to fix that

octotex

[meager oar]

Does it happen to all the textures?

[plain blade]

yes

[meager oar]

U using 4x upscale or 8x upscaling?

[plain blade]

4x

[meager oar]

Oh u need to install pytorch then

It should be inside the requirements.txt

[plain blade]

but i installed it

[meager oar]

hmmm

Idk then, if u wanna skip upscaling then just put all the textures in diffuse into upscaled folder

Then just do the rest of the stuff

I have this issue when upscaling textures to 8x for sum reason but 4x upscaling works fine

[plain blade]

FileNotFoundError: No file '0A1BCFDD82A2EC91_normal.png' found in working directory 'D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\GarrysMod\OctoTex'.

[meager oar]

When generating PBR?

[plain blade]

yes

[meager oar]

Is it still generating stuff?

[plain blade]

its says generating done

but in console it says

Generating...: 0it [00:00, ?it/s]

[meager oar]

It says on the right side how many textures have been generated like this 92/182

[meager oar]

Oh

[meager oar]

When installing python did u came across a option called PATH and did u tick it?

[plain blade]

yes, i think

[meager oar]

no no no, no thinks, that's a very important thing

Otherwise installed modules won't work

[plain blade]

ah

heres the thing

there is no PATH

[night bramble]

Add Python to Environment Variables

Already checked

[woeful phoenix]

@half viper when you run the commands I sent you, ping me the responses here

Then I can give you some of that dank Lua code

[half viper]

I Will

Thank you david

💗

[half viper]

Got an error message

Lua_run:1: '=' expected near '<eof>'

[woeful phoenix]

Are you sure you pasted it right

Be careful you didn't accidentally grab the ` that discord adds

[half viper]

Hmm

[woeful phoenix]

Oh rip

I gave you a console command!

And this errors too???

Wait

Is that the ents module for gmod

[half viper]

Its not actually a console command

[woeful phoenix]

Did you overwrite it

lua_run is very much a console command

It executes code

[half viper]

It is a console command but printtable isnt

[woeful phoenix]

No it isn't, PrintTable is code

To be evaluated by lua_run

It's one line to paste

[half viper]

Ugh god i wish stdshaderdx7 didnt crash my shit

Still an error

[half viper]

Soo what should i do?

[woeful phoenix]

Take a screenshot of your console window and what you typed in

I'm skeptical

[woeful phoenix]

Alright

You didn't listen to what I asked

I have you the exact thing to paste into console
