Garry's Mod

[lament quartz]

Like yeah

[lucid parcel]

Github version of Remix runtime already has that - but it's triggered by the last modified time of mod.usda.
If you modified textures or other USD files, you can just add a space and re-save mod.usda to trigger the runtime to reload.

(or just re-save mod.usda if you're writing a tool or something - you don't actually need to change the contents of it)

[lament quartz]

You don't even need to change anything, just re-save the file

[lament quartz]

Oh, yeah, I didn't read till the end, sorry

Octotex is now able to change the materials in teal time

🥰

[lucid parcel]

nice!

[lament quartz]

You can actually run octotex and the game at the same time, make a capture in the game, then load in the tool, and then make changes in real time 🤗

The tool is not that heavy to run with the game at the same time

[lucid parcel]

Just keep in mind that once you have large numbers of assets, the runtime may take a few seconds to reload them

[lament quartz]

Yup

[lucid parcel]

so I'd recommend against triggering a reload every time the user moves a slider or something

[lament quartz]

Nonono

It saves only when you press write button

[lucid parcel]

👍

[lament quartz]

So you can make the changes in the multiple textures, and then write them

[lucid parcel]

at this point the runtime should be pretty stable to reload a bunch of times, but I we've had crashes when reloading assets in the past.

[lament quartz]

And there's a material preview so ( but I did not update the preview to support the sliders for now 💀 )

эм, прошу прощения, но у меня пару проблем с гмодом всё таки. первая - моделька игрока видна в первом лице. вторая - нету нормального скайбокса

что делать

[lament quartz]

Пометь текстуры игрока - как текстуры игрока

так

А вторая, у тебя в параметрах запуска прописано отключение скайбокса

значит первая проблема решена

Убери этот параметр

неа, я не прописывал

А потом внутри игры в ртх меню включи поддержку скайбокса

Где именно, Я тебе не скажу, ибо не помню

[lament quartz]

Тогда у тебя должен только скайбокс рендерится, поэтому не ври

Скорее всего чей-то готовый скрипт тогда скачал

Или команду готовую скопировал

я как буду за компом, покажу всё

Угусь

Но только завтра

[lament quartz]

Btw sorry for the question, is it possible to preview the texture hash before capturing?

[lucid parcel]

If you hover over it in the Game Setup tab, it should show you the hash

[lament quartz]

But the hash is too different from those in the captured folder

[lucid parcel]

The hash in the menu is different from the captured dds file hash?

[lament quartz]

Yup

Exactly

[lucid parcel]

well, it's supposed to match... I suppose I haven't actually verified it in a while though.

[lament quartz]

Thanks 🙏

I just wanted to add a feature to edit the materials properties by hash, without capturing the textures

Like for glass, or seamless colored things

[lucid parcel]

ah, some materials dont have textures assigned, I'm not sure what we're doing to hash those

[lament quartz]

But noticed that the hashes is not matching with those in captured

[lament quartz]

What do you mean?

Sorry if theres too many questions

Is there a captured materials that have no textures in the base game??

[lucid parcel]

well, the hash for non-replaced materials should just be the hash of the primary color texture for that draw call. I don't know what hash we assign when the draw call doesn't have any material... I think we just don't have a material on the captured mesh?

[lament quartz]

No I mean, look at the car, that's a texture in the base game, and it has a proper stable hash, but it's just a white color, I mean that

[lucid parcel]

I don't understand. Are you saying there was a non-white texture, but when captured it becomes just a white color?

[lament quartz]

And to save a time for textures like this, or glass, I wanted to use the hash of the texture, but the hashes in the menu are different from those that in captured folder

[lament quartz]

Ok, wait, I'll try to describe it step by step

Sorry, English is not my native language

So, the texture in the game, is white, and in the menu you can see the hash of the texture, but if you capture it, the captured texture has a different hash in the file name

Why I'm talking about white texture, is because when you capturing assets, it takes a really long time to complete, and I wanted to implement material editing ( in my own tool ) by the hash name only ( hash from the menu, without capturing )

But it's not possible because hashes in the menu and in the captured folder are different

[lucid parcel]

if you edit the material, it completely replaces the original draw call, meaning that the original texture is not used

[lament quartz]

I hope this time I've described everything more properly

[lament quartz]

Yeah, that's ok

[lucid parcel]

It is possible your game has 2 textures assigned to the same draw call, and the one you're highlighting in the menu is the 2nd texture

If you mouse over the rest of the textures in the remix gui, do any textures others cause the car to light up?

[lament quartz]

Nope

[wintry trench]

Y’all need to try out map Gm_borealis

[lament quartz]

Only one

[wintry trench]

And see how it is with all those new textures

[lucid parcel]

Does every texture hash mismatch, or just some of them?

[lament quartz]

Every texture

But if I write a replacement with hashes from captured folders, they are working

If I'll try to use hashes from the menu, they are not

[lucid parcel]

hmm, at least in a portal capture I just took, the hashes still match:

[lament quartz]

Oh yeah, they are matching in the portal

I see

That's strange

Still thanks for everything ❤️

[lucid parcel]

I can't find any where they don't match, and I can't see any way in the code that could lead to mismatching hashes

[lament quartz]

Is there a possibility that the proton leads to mismatch in the remix menu?

( yup I'm running rtx remix through proton )

Ah I think that's not the territory I should ask the questions

Thanks for everything

🥰

[compact blaze]

Wait the runtime can actually reload the path tracer?

So does that mean if like for example my vram starts to max out, if I just reload the renderer the vram goes back to the original amount?

[plain blade]

how to fix frozen frame

[lucid parcel]

It's not reloading the entire thing, it just reloads the assets.

[compact blaze]

Ah ok sorry, do you know if there’ll ever be a feature to reload the entire thing when the vram starts to max out

Cause for me (I’m on a mobile rtx 3060 with 6 gigs of vram) I sometimes have the issue where the vram slowly maxes out when playing around with settings, and when I go back to lower settings the vram still slowly maxes out until it stutters and crashes

And I have to restart the game as for the vram to not max out

this is mainly an issue I’ve experienced in the latest build of portal rtx and portal prelude rtx and rtx remix 2.0 (without any added updates)

[plain blade]

help

i want to play funni game with graphics

[lament quartz]

Disable all enchantments

[rich badge]

@lament quartz I don't have this problem

[lament quartz]

Then join the map

[plain blade]

i did

[lament quartz]

And turn on them back

[plain blade]

didnt work

[rich badge]

Weird, I don't have to do this

[lament quartz]

Then idk

[rich badge]

Any addons?

[lament quartz]

I don't have too

On the older builds of remix o should do that

But now there's no needs

[lament quartz]

Thanks for the info, maybe that's cuz of proton

[rich badge]

I don't think it is related to

[plain blade]

do i need to update it again?

[rich badge]

You sure this happens with all textures?

[lament quartz]

You have a better idea? 💀

[rich badge]

cosmic radiation

[lament quartz]

Yup

[plain blade]

rtx remix fixes

[lament quartz]

Does anybody know if there's an emission scaler in USDA per texture?

[rich badge]

Yes there is

[lament quartz]

Yaaay

Thanks

[rich badge]

Would I send an example?

[lament quartz]

If you wish

[rich badge]

color3f inputs:emissive_color_constant = (1, 1, 1) (
    customData = {
        float3 default = (1, 1, 1)
        dictionary range = {
            float3 max = (1, 1, 1)
            float3 min = (0, 0, 0)
        }
    }
    displayGroup = "Emissive"
    displayName = "Emissive Color"
    doc = "The emissive color when no emissive color texture is specified."
    hidden = false
)
float inputs:emissive_intensity = 40 (
    customData = {
        float default = 40
        dictionary range = {
            float max = 65504
            float min = 0
        }
    }
    displayGroup = "Emissive"
    displayName = "Emissive Intensity"
    doc = "Intensity of the emission"
    hidden = false
)
asset inputs:emissive_mask_texture = @@ (
    colorSpace = "sRGB"
    customData = {
        asset default = @@
    }
    displayGroup = "Emissive"
    displayName = "Emissive Mask Map"
    doc = "The texture masking the emissive color"
    hidden = false
)
bool inputs:enable_emission = 1 (
    customData = {
        bool default = 0
    }
    displayGroup = "Emissive"
    displayName = "Enable Emission"
    doc = "Enables the emission of light from the material"
    hidden = false
)

[lament quartz]

Thanks ❤️

[lucid parcel]

We've fixed several memory leaks since those builds

[rich badge]

Do portal and prelude get updated as well

[lucid parcel]

We have to thoroughly QA any releases to steam games. Public version of Portal RTX is still on the original binaries.

The Prelude devs are responsible for any updates there, but I don't believe they've pushed any.

[lament quartz]

Wait, if water uses translucent shader, how is it animated?

[rich badge]

in gmod, the simple water texture is already animated

from the xenthio's mod

[lament quartz]

So you can't animate it by yourself with USDA properties?

[rich badge]

You can also mark a texture as animated water texture and it will animate its normals

like waves

[lament quartz]

Hmm

[compact blaze]

ah ok, still tho i feel a feature like that could be really useful on weaker cards with less vram to spare

[lament quartz]

I'll try that, thanks

[rich badge]

in the rtx.conf

[lament quartz]

Yup I understood

[rich badge]

if you were to automate it here's the var: rtx.animatedWaterTextures = hash1, hash2

[lament quartz]

Thanks

I need to try and scrap the models tomorrow

[rich badge]

Oh btw according to the documentation this requires rtx.opaqueMaterial.layeredWaterNormalEnable to be set to true, it does say that's the default anyway but this might change / already changed and not documented (there are quite many instances this happened)

[lament quartz]

And I hen will try to replace the palm tree from the sadx

[lament quartz]

Is there a documentation??

[rich badge]

https://github.com/NVIDIAGameWorks/dxvk-remix/blob/main/RtxOptions.md

[lament quartz]

I'm really blind lol

[lucid parcel]

It's better for us to just fix the memory leaks so that VRAM pressure goes down when you change settings, rather than forcing users to manually reset stuff

[lament quartz]

Oh Mark, do you know if there's a parameter to change the intensity of the roughness per each texture in USDA?

With roughness map

Like a global variable in menu, but per texture

I've found one, but it works only if there's no roughness map

[lucid parcel]

no, you should just scale the texture. roughness should go from a 0 to 1 range, values outside of that don't make sense

[lament quartz]

Oh ok

Still thanks

[compact blaze]

fair ig

[lucid parcel]

If you do find a set of actions that just causes VRAM to go up and up, please file an issue with repro instructions, so we can track down the leak and fix it.

[rich badge]

You don't have the preserve textures somehow enabled right?

[compact blaze]

i have no idea what that is

[rich badge]

In game setup -> textures

this

[compact blaze]

im not sure thats there in portal rtx

[lucid parcel]

You should really use the latest runtime and bridge from the github.

[compact blaze]

i wanna ask when portal rtx gets updated to include ray reconstruction, will it utilize the latest remix runtime with all the fixes?

[lucid parcel]

I can't talk about stuff like that

[compact blaze]

ah ok apologies

[compact blaze]

stuff like that is really daunting for me, thats why i dont mess with it

[rich badge]

You can use the https://discord.com/channels/1028444667789967381/1132988164814934167 by RuneStorm which makes downloading the latest binaries much easier

[compact blaze]

i mean like setting it up for portal rtx + i dont like downloading random files from the internet lol

[rich badge]

It's not random, its from nvidia's remix repo

oh if you mean the downloader you can still do that manually

[lucid parcel]

portal RTX isn't going to work with the latest runtime as-is, the asset format has changed. Prelude should work with a straight upgrade tho

I'm not sure why you're asking questions in the Garry's Mod project channel if you're not working on Garry's Mod tho?

[compact blaze]

i mean the downloader ya

[compact blaze]

oh im so sorry i didn't realize, i thought i was able to due to both games being source

[lucid parcel]

I mean, if you have questions about Portal RTX you can just ask them in the general chat? If you want to use Remix with Garry's Mod, you're going to have to be able to unzip and paste the Remix files into the correct folders within Garry's Mod

[woeful phoenix]

Yes, VAC is not enabled in Garry's mod. The lua overhead and module support would make it flip it's shit out

[compact blaze]

again i apologize, sry i went off topic without realizing it

i just played portal rtx so ya lol

[lament quartz]

Btw I've noticed that high poly models drops fps in the game with rtx remix

[rich badge]

An example?

[lament quartz]

But if you replace low poly model with high poly one with remix, the situation is much, much better

[lament quartz]

High poly modern sonic model for sadx

Or highpoly cyberpunk car addon for gmod

[rich badge]

Can you try disabling alpha blended and tested?

[lament quartz]

Yeah, but tomorrow

That's interesting idea btw

[rich badge]

Yea because high poly meshes shouldn't be a problem, I had added unnecessarily high poly meshes before yet it didn't have a impact

by hight I mean really high

probably more than the total scene

[lament quartz]

I mean high poly mesh right in the game

Without replacements

I think I understand how to parse the USDA as an associative array

Need to try tomorrow

If it'll work, that will be fire

[lucid hawk]

how do i go about fixing this? all the materials are .usd files.

[hallow wasp]

The game passes those high-poly meshes into d3d9, and Remix analyzes them which is introduces quite an overhead, compared to replacements. Replacements are parsed once, while everything that comes from the game might be reparsed each frame.

The desireable scenario is: the game passes low-poly meshes, Remix analyzes those low-poly meshes, and based on that, replaces them with high-poly USD replacements.

Again, high-poly ** replacements** should not be a problem for Remix

[lucid hawk]

do i have to convert .usd to .mat?

[meager oar]

so i added reflection to this guys glasses in the tool but i forgot to change the transparency though

[lament quartz]

da fuck?

@lament quartz плюс глянь на террейн

ахуенно, да?

[woeful phoenix]

@keen rivet and perhaps @rich badge since you guys had water figured out, is it possible to change the coloring of it? I need a few different types of water. Ocean / lake / dirty / clean water etc

[keen rivet]

Yeah change the colour of the tint in the replacements file

[lament quartz]

Create a folder,

[lucid hawk]

Yeah i ended up finding your solution after scrolling up a bit

Your tool’s a godsend bro

[woeful phoenix]

Where would I find that prop?

[lament quartz]

guys, how to fix that

[lament quartz]

guys?

[rich badge]

You adjust the transmittance color color3f inputs:transmittance_color = (0.3, 0.65, 0.86) (..) and transmittance distance float inputs:transmittance_measurement_distance = 800 (..)

You achieve the water becomes blue-ish as it gets deeper by adjusthing its transmittance measurement distance

I think this as a whole means more or less the material color will become inputs:transmittance_color after the light travel distance reaches the inputs:transmittance_measurement_distance

[lament quartz]

please...

[mild mist]

You probably get this question all the time, but could you give me a quick TL:DR on setting up RTX Remix alongside your tool for Gmod

I want to rtx-ify some more unique maps on the workshop and see how they look

[tulip silo]

Clone OctoTex and place it's folder in your root folder where "rtx-remix" folder is located

[mild mist]

i dont even have the rtx-remix folder yet

i meant from the start

[tulip silo]

Oh

[mild mist]

do I need to still steal the files from Portal RTX or is there a github now

[tulip silo]

#remix-beginners-guide

GitHub page

[mild mist]

thank u

once i set that up

ill ask about octotex, thanks bus

bud

[mild mist]

also just a more general question

how useful will HL2RTX be to the future of Gmod RTX development

if useful at all

[lament quartz]

will be useful as fk

[rich badge]

We will have quality pbr materials for hl2 assets 🙃

steal everything from hl2rtx

[mild mist]

fosho

how will my 2070 run gmod RTX once i've used octotex n shit to redo whatever map I pick

i remember running portalRTX decently

[rich badge]

on what res

[mild mist]

1080

[rich badge]

fine

[mild mist]

good

🙂

[compact blaze]

Which dlss mode?

[mild mist]

I've never used DLSS i didn't think it works with Gmod

i don't actually know how to access it

[rich badge]

what lol

its remix

[tulip silo]

so you're new to remix modding, is that correct?

[mild mist]

completely i've only ever watched youtube videos and browsed this discord without speaking

[tulip silo]

a fellow lurker, amazing

[rich badge]

Remix replaces the renderer, so it supports latest goodness including dlss

[compact blaze]

Nah I mean like in ports, rtx?

[rich badge]

actually without dlss its fire hazard

[mild mist]

I've never touched DLSS in my life

so I would just do whatever I got told to do

[tulip silo]

same lol

[compact blaze]

How tf are you running portal rtx at 1080p without dlss?

[rich badge]

You should https://discord.com/channels/1028444667789967381/1098785289838796850 and gain some perspective over how this thing works

[mild mist]

i dont remmeber i played it on day 1

it mighta already been on

[compact blaze]

How many frames did u get?

[rich badge]

then you can follow the instruction on the oldest(second) pinned message to get gmod working

[compact blaze]

Oh ya it was prob automatically on

can someone send his rtx.conf please

[rich glen]

[lament quartz]

обозначь текстурки плеермодели как-то "playermodel body texture"

[heady mango]

when people say portal rtx file do they mean Portal with RTX or Portal Prelude thingy?

[half viper]

Both should be fine as far as I remember
But i think its better to use portal w rtx

[heady mango]

im feeling kinda dumb here, i did everything from patching to newest remix install but for some reason the game doesnt load remix at startup or in a map

[half viper]

Wdym

Vanilla graphics?

[heady mango]

i boot up the game, vanilla graphics no remix menu or press alt x to open

got the dxvk with shader 0, game is running DX7 or dxlevel 70

[half viper]

You need to put rtx remix in the bin folder

[heady mango]

XD

that should fix it

Thanks a lot!

[lament quartz]

Yaay, new member!

[half viper]

Ahem

It still doesn't work for me

[heady mango]

Your OctoTex software is crazy, excited to see where it goes

[half viper]

😭😭😭😭

[lament quartz]

😭😭

Whyy

[half viper]

for some reason my game does NOT like me playing with stdshaderdx7

[meager oar]

I think try resetting your whole PC

[half viper]

😭😭😭

[meager oar]

that is a mess use tis one

[meager oar]

😭 🥺 ☹️ 🙂 😄 😂 🤣

[meager oar]

Did u reset your whole PC?

[half viper]

Nope

[meager oar]

who knows it might fix it, but have to redownload every single thing, drivers, discord, games and etc

[night bramble]

delete the game folders in steamlibrary then reDL them

and delete system32 after

[torpid fable]

hi Alex, how delete all textures in gui?

[lament quartz]

what gui?

[mild mist]

i didnt manage to install it

im stupid

[torpid fable]

Okay, I got it. I'm sorry to bother you.

[lament quartz]

there's no problems 😛

[lament quartz]

what you did? describe your steps

[mild mist]

i just got lost in the instructions, it was telling me to drop .dll files into my gmod folder and i couldnt even find the dll files

i was following the pinned message in this thread

i think im just a bit stupid

[lament quartz]

aah, you're talking about gmod

[mild mist]

yeah

not octotex im sure thats a peach to install

[lament quartz]

hm, i've just did all the steps in the pins and that's it

[mild mist]

ill have another crack in an hour when im back at pc

[meager oar]

orrr i can giv u a short cut witt the binnnnyyyy fuldurrrr

[mild mist]

please explain i would really appreciate it

sorry for the slow reply i had to go out

[keen rivet]

@lament quartz ayy did you ever finish the albedo model?

[lament quartz]

Are you talking about unbaker?

It's already out

And I've said before, I can't work on the weekends

[keen rivet]

oh sorry i forgot it was the weekend for you

wheres the unbaker?

i cant click on textures for some reason hmm

oh shoot wait my git was scuffed

[lament quartz]

On my Google drive

Just redownload the whole thing

And support for unbaker was already uploaded to the git

[keen rivet]

lol

the website dies since i have 5000 images loading

[lament quartz]

Just loading??

Never thought that these much textures will be loaded at once

[keen rivet]

yeah when the webpage loads lol

[lament quartz]

Yeah

[keen rivet]

i assume its because of the sidebar

[lament quartz]

Probably

Cuz that's a lot to load

In the right menu

[lament quartz]

💀

[keen rivet]

doing unbake on 5218 textures, same with normals and disp and roughness

[lament quartz]

💀

[keen rivet]

unbaking is 2241/5218

i modified the functions file to make it unbake all

[lament quartz]

yaay

[wintry trench]

guys I have a steam glitch where I cant play any game

thats why the command lines for gmod havent done shit

anytime i click play on a game it says its playing and then cancels

when i put the commands into the console nothing happens

and when I try to play the game normally nothing happens

[wintry trench]

the game doesnt work at all

i unistalled it and reinstalled which made it work fine

but the second I put the remix files in it just doesnt open

[meager oar]

ah crap u have the virus that strelok has

[wintry trench]

what?

is it possible to fix it?

[meager oar]

idk he hasnt fix it yet

[wintry trench]

well that fucking sucks

just doesnt work for zero reason

[woeful phoenix]

If you see it go blue, stop, then go back to play on steam then I had this before. In my experience the bridge client caused it especially if it's after you installed remix

Try a diff bridge client. I used the portal RTX one and it works

[wintry trench]

No, nothing happens, the game does not open

If I click the play button on steam it does nothing

If I use the command console and enter in the the stuff from pinned, it does nothing

[woeful phoenix]

https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/40400837/264177472-f18605df-5ca7-4c09-8154-20a899fd10ac.gif

Does it look like this?

[keen rivet]

RTX Remix Fixes addon will now disable those pesky sprites

the ones that have different hashes every time theyre loaded

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3038853470
also added the mirror and emissive mods in the description

[keen rivet]

added ability to disable vertex lighting, disabled by default, allows coloured effects to work

[wintry trench]

Yep exactly like that

[woeful phoenix]

Like i said

use a different brige

[wintry trench]

It goes from the cancel back to the play

[woeful phoenix]

bridge client*

Try the portal RTX one

[wintry trench]

Just the bridge.exe

[woeful phoenix]

yeah and the associated binaries for ONLY that

[wintry trench]

Not sure what that means

[woeful phoenix]

the .exe alone is not the client

you need the moduels with it

not the DXVK modules

[wintry trench]

What files should I copy from portal

[woeful phoenix]

Sec

I may have some binaries i packed for my DM people

[wintry trench]

I’m confused but okay

Portal rtx also does the same thing

Like the game

I cant open gmod or portal rtx

[woeful phoenix]

The regular portal rtx game just drops to desktop on you??

[wintry trench]

It does that

Other steam games work but those two don’t

[woeful phoenix]

What graphics card do you have?

[wintry trench]

I think a 3050 mobile ?

Before this was never a problem

I have had gmod rtx up and running before

[woeful phoenix]

Something changed then, when was the last time it worked?

[wintry trench]

Maybe one month ago?

I could be because of my drivers

[woeful phoenix]

Same laptop?

[wintry trench]

Yes

I cant update my drivers from nvdia because it fails every time

[woeful phoenix]

You didn't have to reinstall RTX or anything and maybe miss a file? I know when I downloaded the stuff I didn't include the .trex by accident

[woeful phoenix]

Seems like a bigger issue at play than can be troubleshooted

[wintry trench]

I have trex and all that

I followed the video xenethio posted

Just used remix 0.2

[woeful phoenix]

I would sort out why you can't update your graphics card driver before you tackle a game relying on those drivers

I mean assuming your drivers aren't up to date

[wintry trench]

They aren’t up to date

I’ve tried to update but it says failed every time on GeForce

[woeful phoenix]

So start with trying to fix that problem instead of trying to move past it. IDK why it would happen but google says it might be because the GEForce client itself is out of date

[wintry trench]

So delete GeForce experience and reinstall it ?

[woeful phoenix]

I'm honestly not sure what the best thing to do first would be

At this point I'd just be googling it with you hah

[wintry trench]

I’m installing GeForce again

Hasn’t gave me any issues yet

We will see if it downloads right now

Yep that fixed it

Now we will try gmod again

Yooooo it’s fucking opening let’s gooo

@woeful phoenix

this is what I got now

so uhhh

[keen rivet]

make sure you set shader model to 0

use these configs too

they'll setup a shitload of stuff

[wintry trench]

okay i will

where do you change the shader model

[keen rivet]

the config will do that

the one i just sent has it set to 0 already

[wintry trench]

alright I deleted mine and have yours in now

because my conf did not have that option

[keen rivet]

yeah you have to add it in

[wintry trench]

ahh

this is what I got not @keen rivet

[keen rivet]

Further than before

[wintry trench]

and its taking up a huge amount of storage

[keen rivet]

storage?

[wintry trench]

like the usage

[keen rivet]

oh my graphics config is insanely high you might wanna turn that down

[wintry trench]

ah okay lol

so how do I get the regular textures to work

i wanna get this to work normally first because i try to figure out how yall got the pbr stuff

[keen rivet]

they are grass is just funny sometimes

[wintry trench]

Okay, how do I get the pbr textures and stuff that recently have shown up

anti cull doesnt really work at all

[lament quartz]

what.

[wintry trench]

??

[lament quartz]

it looks amazing

[wintry trench]

I just lowered the roughness and made it fully metallic

Kinda mimic the cool textures they have

[lament quartz]

is this even without PBR textures?

[wintry trench]

Yep

[lament quartz]

damn...

[wintry trench]

No pbr textures

I don’t know how to do that

Do you ?

[lament quartz]

nah, idk, but you can ask around here how to work with octotex

[wintry trench]

Damn alright, I don’t know how anti I’ll works tho because it didn’t fix anything

The light in the back door on that pic should not be there

Light leaking

[lament quartz]

еveryone here will definitely help you

[wintry trench]

Hopefully soon lol

[keen rivet]

doing some shit to send the lights manually to rtx remix

[wintry trench]

What’s up with the fog?

[keen rivet]

i messed up with the sun somehow

[meager oar]

Finally! Those dang things were so annoying

[meager oar]

I get that type of fog in dark areas of map when using volumetric lighting

[meager oar]

First u need python would recommend Python 10, (DONT FORGET TO TICK THE PATH OPTION BECAREFUL WHEN INSTALLING IT DO NOT MISS THE PATH OPTION TICK IT) and then download octatex. Then open octatex folder and u will see a txt file called requirements.txt, Open that and u will see names of all the modules u need, Simply open command prompt, just type pip install (module name) if u wanna install manually and if u wanna install all at once type pip install requirements.txt or sumthin idk what is the name of the command to install all the modules at once.

[wintry trench]

they should pin this

[meager oar]

And then just go in-game open any map and then open remix menu go to enhancements tab and u will see two capture options any of them will work, After capturing go to octatex folder right click there and open the Terminal, if u dnt have terminal then u see all that path up top of the folder? Like steam/steamapps/common/Garry's mod/etc remove all that and type CMD there and enter it, it should open CMD in that folder

And then just type webui.py or python webui.py and it should open the Web UI

Load the textures first and then upscale them, Now u have two choices u wanna do PBR automatically or if u wanna do manually, I recommend manually that's better one u can change the roughness, POM strenght and bunch of stuff there

[wintry trench]

manual would take awhile tho wouldnt it

[meager oar]

If your doing it manually don't touch the roughness and metallness options just touch the Albedo(Optional), Parrelex and Either AI normals or legsce normals, Legacy normals are better

[meager oar]

Yea automatic makes all the textures behave the same but manually u can change the behavior and etc u can even replace textures from ambientCG in there but yes it takes some time to do

Especially if u have 1000 plus textures

Most I have done is 144 textures

I mean manually remastering those 144 textures

[meager oar]

Oh I forget one more thing u need

U need the AI stuff aswell

Put them at ai/PBR/checkpoints/ put it right besides textures

The one drive link should be in the GitHub page for it

[wintry trench]

this all comes with octoflex right

because currently i have no clue what your talking about but im sure I would if i had the files

[meager oar]

Those AI modules are separate and don't come with Octatex

[wintry trench]

damn, seems very complicated

[meager oar]

Nah it's easy

[wintry trench]

lol i just dont wanna break gmod again and not have rtx working

[meager oar]

It seemed complicated to me aswell at start but now it's very easy to download octatex

For me

Cause I downloaded it 3 or 4 times all from the start and it kinda gave me some practice

[wintry trench]

alright, ill try it out in a little while

if i fuck up though will it break gmod?

someone should make a youtube video on how to do it

[meager oar]

Nope if u ever messed up only octatex will break probably

[wintry trench]

ay maybe you could make a youtube video for it

[meager oar]

I lost access to ma YT account 😭💔😭 need to wait more then a week to login again

[wintry trench]

bro what?

[keen rivet]

the rtx remix fixes addon will now iterate through shitloads of lights every frame and send them to rtx remix

[half viper]

Try it in big city!

[keen rivet]

it also makes bounced sunlight brighter?

which is cool

maybe bounced sunlight didn't work properly before

[half viper]

What?

Weird

[keen rivet]

works

i can see the light inside the house is working

same with the light in this building

[wintry trench]

My question is what’s up with gmod lights

Like you load into a map and the lights aren’t there until you get close enough to them

Then they stay there for the rest of the time

[keen rivet]

yeah thats what i'm fixing right now

[wintry trench]

Ohh sweet

[keen rivet]

they might flicker occasionally

especially when a map has more lights

it might also break the ability to turn lights off with light switches :(

[half viper]

Awe

[keen rivet]

okay its all working

addon code and etc also now on github

https://github.com/Xenthio/RTXFixes/tree/master

[keen rivet]

i have a hackier idea that might work better lemme try that

[woeful phoenix]

I thought you guys were using the source RTX fixes? Are you trying to solve all the culling stuff with lua?

Three render call loops to fix a light that can be solved by a single clientside entity is iffy

Well it wouldn't be single but you know what I mean

that local light function still adheres to basically what light calculations use and averaging out the amount in a space

if you use an entity each light is considered unique per that entity

so that data gets sent without averaging

it also means you don't have to loop like a nut and if you didn't actually fix the culling issues with the source rtx fixes, itw ill at least still cull

[keen rivet]

oh yeah those fixes also are used

these are different fixes

[woeful phoenix]

I think you should consider implementing the suggestion I made in that reply, it works well for Dark Messiah and I wrote that with an injection. Have even more control how it functions in lua. ATM you are shuffling through 4 random light maps in a table for 3 renders calls

[keen rivet]

oh yeah no theres another mode

[woeful phoenix]

One solution I was trying in DM that I can not do because of limitations is moving the entity and drawing, but I can not safely access setupbones

[keen rivet]

https://github.com/Xenthio/RTXFixes/blob/master/lua/entities/rtx_lightupdater.lua

entity that teleports around to a bunch of different lights

[woeful phoenix]

This is still restricted by the speed of the entity thought

which is always < the amount of frames called

[keen rivet]

teleports around so it can update nearby lights since in source not all lights have entities (cough cough half-life 1 maps)

and hl2 maps

bunch of maps really

the other mode is so it works on fullbright

which allows baked terrain mode to not use the ingame lightmap meaning terrain doesn't turn pitch black in shadowed areas

[woeful phoenix]

What HL1 map did you check, I'm curious to check what exists on it

[keen rivet]

c1a0

[lament quartz]

mat_fullbright 1

[keen rivet]

source has the ability to place lights in compilation for specific textures

its used in hl2 for effect lights and hl1 extensively, almost every light

[woeful phoenix]

If the teleportation solution is the best way to go, I suggest using SetupBones so you can get it to more places in one frame. Theoretically speaking, since you are going to be shuffling multiple render calls per call anyway, you can probably set your own custom convar for max lights* that will just increment up the light list during the entity's drawmodel, setupbones, setpos, draw itself, rinse repeat

psuedodish code. Obviously your limits should shift based on the convar so you can get a consistent buffer

function ENT:DrawModel()
  for i=1, XXXX do
      local light_dat = map_light_list[i]
      self:SetRenderOrigin( light_dat.pos )
      self:SetupBones()
      self:DrawModel()
  end
end```

but this gets the point across

[keen rivet]

what would setupbones do

[woeful phoenix]

Setupbones allows you to update the rendering position of the object within a render draw

because it basically flags the positions as dirty

So in this case you'd be able to draw the model in X different positions every time it's drawn ONCE. That surpasses your 4x light limitation and the entity thought restriction

binding that X limit to a con command is a sanity check so people can change the performance if they're having issues

The dirty flag is important for additional calculations within the engine, in this case you want lights to pick up on that fact so when this is called it won't be seeing it as a "we just use the old lights" it'll say "ohshit new pos just dropped"

https://wiki.facepunch.com/gmod/Entity:SetupBones here's the wiki page but the information I gave you above is the backend reasoning it happens. I dont have access to this function in Dark Messiah as clean as gmod has it so I can't take manipulate my render stack

[lament quartz]

guys, can you test other maps?

[lament quartz]

ахах, чат сдох после того, как я написал

[rich badge]

lovely texture work 🙃

[keen rivet]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/715503242280304660/1158519654487179304/RTXRemixMirror-v1.zip?ex=651c8b01&is=651b3981&hm=61e3cfc7b1229e5ecfca02e586d1124766d6cabcf48b1cd6e0c4548302e5dd4c&

[rich badge]

Btw you don't need plain color textures for mirrors, just set the values

[rich badge]

I've seen it 👍

[keen rivet]

this'll make it a mirror

[rich badge]

Instead of this you could set roughness to 0

over "Shader"
{
    color3f inputs:diffuse_color_constant = (1, 1, 1) (
        customData = {
            float3 default = (0.2, 0.2, 0.2)
            dictionary range = {
                float3 max = (1, 1, 1)
                float3 min = (0, 0, 0)
            }
        }
        displayGroup = "Diffuse"
        displayName = "Albedo Base Color"
        doc = "The base albedo color to use if no texture is specified"
        hidden = false
    )
    float inputs:metallic_constant = 1 (
        customData = {
            float default = 0
            dictionary range = {
                float max = 1
                float min = 0
            }
        }
        displayGroup = "Specular"
        displayName = "Metallic Amount"
        doc = "Metallic Material"
        hidden = false
    )
    float inputs:reflection_roughness_constant = 0 (
        customData = {
            float default = 0.5
            dictionary range = {
                float max = 1
                float min = 0
            }
        }
        displayGroup = "Specular"
        displayName = "Roughness Amount"
        doc = "Higher roughness values lead to more blurry reflections"
        hidden = false
    )
}

Like this

@keen rivet You could structure the mod like:

subLayers = [
    @./water.usda@,
    @./mirror.usda@,
    @./gm_construct_emissives.usda@
]

Thanks for voicing your opinion.

[keen rivet]

lol the octotex texture browser doesnt work at all

it tries to load everything

it should really only load when clicked and use a low quality compressed thumbnail for the material browser

[lament quartz]

it does not uses low quality thumbnails

[keen rivet]

yeah it should use

is what i'm saying

[lament quartz]

probably

[rich badge]

And load by chunks

[lament quartz]

yes

[keen rivet]

optional if the thumbnails are done properly and small enough

[rich badge]

I am sure just thumbnails won't cut it

[keen rivet]

128x128 jpg

[lament quartz]

i can crop the textures

[rich badge]

?

[keen rivet]

nah just use small images just for the thumnails not actually used for textures

like the icon is 90x90

so you could have 90x90 jpeg version to load quickly

[lament quartz]

i've messed up the thumbnails probably

[lament quartz]

I mean, I can scale texture to make it small

Not that painful actually

Btw Look at that!

That's USDA to obj converter

But it messes up the UV map for now

[rich badge]

Why do that?

[lament quartz]

I've said this before

I don't wanna use omniverse

[rich badge]

I should've missed sorry

[rich badge]

Usda is not omniverse's property

also blender supports it

[lament quartz]

Oh

Why when I talked about models convertation no one told me that before?

Why imma doing this then

[rich badge]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[lament quartz]

Do you need some kinda USDA plugin for blender?

[rich badge]

No just import it

[lament quartz]

Oh

[rich badge]

the name might be universal scene description

[lament quartz]

Yeah ik

[lament quartz]

How can I make the beginner modders life easier then?

[lament quartz]

Does it able to save multiple textures?

Like just import another model, delete the old one

Place the textures, and save

[lament quartz]

Globe

[rich badge]

Make the installation easier?

Like most complains are python errors

during the install

[lament quartz]

I'm talking about models 😦

[rich badge]

Oh, you could port the functionality of E-Man's omniverse addon

to make working on meshes easier

[lament quartz]

What does it do?

[rich glen]

[rich badge]

Many things

[lament quartz]

K I'll ask E-mab then, still thanks

[rich badge]

I mean I could say something but of course he knows exactly, not me

I didn't mean joke

[lament quartz]

Thanks

I can't try the toll myself cuz I have no space left on my ssd

😦

[rich badge]

Like it triangulates the meshes, converts interpolation to vertex

[lament quartz]

That's interesting

[rich badge]

Those aren't necessary as of a new update (weeks ago) but not doing that will cost runtime performance

according to the devs

[wintry trench]

Is there a way to give the water refraction

[lament quartz]

Are you using octotex?

[wintry trench]

Not currently

[lament quartz]

Just bump up ior slider

Oh

[wintry trench]

Is there a way to do it naturally

[lament quartz]

Yeah

You can use the ior variable

It's float

[wintry trench]

Where is that located

[lament quartz]

I can't remember how exactly it called

[lament quartz]

Wait, do you have a custom texture replacement ?

[wintry trench]

No I just have regular remix

[lament quartz]

Oh

Then you cannot I think

You need any mod

[wintry trench]

One question about octoflex

If I chose to for it to automatically do the textures

Is it possible for me to come back later and manually change them myself

[lament quartz]

Yes

But the installation is tuff

You'll need to install python 3.10

[wintry trench]

Will is fuck up my gmod if I do it wrong

[wintry trench]

I’m gonna follow what he told me

[lament quartz]

Nope

[lament quartz]

Yeah, that's a great one, good luck

😛

[wintry trench]

Alright, I’ll do it later tonight, hopefully nothing does wrong

Although I did mention someone could make a video about how to do it as well

[lone arch]

Lmao

[meager oar]

u also need to download imagemagick aswell, i forget to mention it

[lucid parcel]

Just saw this glass work someone posted a month ago
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=716X-S-acN4

They need to set thin_walled to true in that material.
(thin_walled = true means that a single surface counts as both entering and exiting the translucent material. false means that a single surface counts as entering a solid block of material, and it will act as if everything behind it is solid glass until it encounters another translucent surface.)

[half viper]

I don't think he is in the server

The guy who made the video

Also in the description it says its half life 2

Probably because they couldn't figure out how to get Garry's mod working

(which is much more complicated than other source engine games)

[lament quartz]

Oh oh i'll take a note

[lucid parcel]

getting the thin_walled property wrong was pretty common among our artists while we were developing portal. It makes everything behind the glass look like it's in an aquarium or something

[lament quartz]

For example, water should have this on false right?

[lucid parcel]

in general, yes

[lament quartz]

Thanks

Need to implement booleans to the GUI

[lucid parcel]

if the geometry means the ray is entering a translucent medium, and other geometry may mean it is exiting that medium, thin_walled = false.

If the geometry is a single quad meant to represent both entering and exiting a glass panel, thin_walled = true

[lament quartz]

Yeah, I understood right away

Thanks

😛

[rich badge]

They are

[arctic trout]

yeah im here

[rich badge]

Water should be thin walled ??

But we only have a plane at the surface but we want the whole volume to act as translucent

[lament quartz]

No, variable should've been set to False

[rich badge]

Mark said #1116089843479498782 message

[lament quartz]

Like water is a liquid that fills everything, so there is no endpont for the ray

[rich badge]

Oh so mark said yes to false

🤦‍♂️

My bad

[lament quartz]

But something like a really thin glass, like a single quad that should be a glass, in that case it should've been set to True

[rich badge]

I think it has more to do with windows of real world (vacuum between two panes) vs solid block of that material.

[rich badge]

So this is not the deciding factor (if I understand correctly)

[lament quartz]

I mean, the quad that should be a glass

The quad is only two triangles, and have no exit point for the ray

So the ray "will think" that it's still inside of a material

That's how I'm understood it

And to prevent that, there's a boolean that tells the ray that that single quad is an enter and exit point at the same time

[rich badge]

Exactly, this is what we want for water and not for say a window for example

[lament quartz]

Yes

[rich badge]

This is how thin walled pieces look like

Set thickness really high

They have no refraction, which is what we would expect from a double pane glass irl

[lucid parcel]

Some games will model a window as a single quad (2 triangles total). This needs to use thin walled, as that single quad represents both entrance and exit.

Others will used a very thin box (12 triangles forming 6 faces). this is not thin walled - the ray enters when it hits one face, and exits when it hits the other.

marking a solid piece of glass like those chess pieces as thin walled is basically making them act like they're hollow shells, rather than solid pieces of glass.

[rich badge]

Chess Titans is super handy for quick demonstrations

[lament quartz]

Oh basically we can mark a bottle as a thin walled and make an actual bottle?

👀👀

[rich badge]

Even if you don't mark it as thin walled it will still look as a bottle but with some liquid in it

with the ior of 1.5 🙃

[lament quartz]

Yeah probably

But with thin walls it'll be an empty bottle

😛

[lucid parcel]

You can get the same effect by modeling both the inner and outer surface of the bottle

[lament quartz]

But what if you don't want to touch the model

[rich badge]

Oh btw still no stable meshes in gmod :/

[lucid parcel]

then yeah, thin_walled is the easy way to make it act like an empty bottle

[rich badge]

couldn't find that source parameter for transformations on the gpu

[wintry trench]

man why the fuck is gmod so broken

I literally got it to work yesterday and i have changed absolutely nothing in the files

and now it doesnt work again

[lucid hawk]

It really doesn’t like rtx remix

Gotta live with it

Sometimes i have to press play multiple times before it actually launches

[wintry trench]

No but i have literally changed nothing

It worked yesterday

And next day it doesn’t work, nothing has changed

It works if I don’t use the console command from the pin and just open without anything

Well now it works……..

[keen rivet]

going to stream gmod rtx with the 6000 textures ran through octotex

in this discord

any map suggestions?

aw fuck nvm gotta delay it water is scuffed

wait nvm i forgot i fixed it yuesterday already lol

[wintry trench]

Borealis

It’s a snow map

Gm_borealis I believe

Do popular all time

Yes

Lol

The inside looks cool in the bunker

I didn’t know how to fix the land either

The underground works tho

There are bunkers underneath

They are missile silos and stuff

Wow thag looks really cool

With all the textures

That’s where I took that screenshot

[wintry trench]

This

I don’t have the textures tho

Yeah the main thing about the map is underground, it’s like missile silos

[keen rivet]

any other map suggestions?

[wintry trench]

Dammit I wish I didn’t have wrestling practice

Gmod is more important

[keen rivet]

hold on im going to pdate remix

[wintry trench]

Gm_adventures is cool

[keen rivet]

@lament quartz https://github.com/alex-suspicious/OctoTex/pulls

[wintry trench]

@keen rivet you should make a tutorial video on how to add install octo flex and get it running on gmod

Like you did with rtx remix

[lament quartz]

Morning

[lament quartz]

Thanks

I'll merge today

[keen rivet]

no worries

i found the generate buttons for the selected material generate for all textures

[lament quartz]

Wdym?

Generate for one texture generates for all?

[keen rivet]

yeah

[lament quartz]

Wait, generate PBR?

Or upscaling?

[keen rivet]

generate pbr i'm pretty sure

unless i accidentally miscliedk

[lament quartz]

There's no generate PBR for selected texture button

[keen rivet]

oh

[keen rivet]

oh assumed there was since these exist

and i thought that meant these ones in materials tab

[lament quartz]

But not for all

[keen rivet]

was for the one selected

oh

[lament quartz]

Those are for selected yeah

The main tab is for everything

[keen rivet]

oh

[lament quartz]

Yeah I need some description

[keen rivet]

i clicked on of those buttons and it started generating for all

[lament quartz]

And more intuitive stuff

[lament quartz]

I don't recommend you to press all of them at ones

Idk what will happen

[keen rivet]

yeah i didnt lol

[lament quartz]

Oh

I misunderstood you

[lament quartz]

Can't be, functions are linked to the button statically, with html attribute

[wintry trench]

i see 3.10.13

[lament quartz]

I hope that'll work

[wintry trench]

which one do you use

theres multiple 3.10

[lament quartz]

I've installed exactly 3.10

[wintry trench]

just found it sorry lol

which download is itm theres a lot and its confusing

windows embeddable package (32 bit) or windows installer (32 bit)

[wintry trench]

@lament quartz I downloaded the ai from your google drive but I cant find the folder im supposed to put it in

there is no "checkpoint " folder

[lament quartz]

you should put it to this folder

[wintry trench]

so just put it in PBR

[lament quartz]

does the archive already contains checkpoint folder?

if no, then create a folder

in the PBR one

[wintry trench]

like the ai folder

the downloaded files

[lament quartz]

no i mean

creat a folder inside of ai folder

it should be like this

ao/PBR/checkpoints

wait

here we go

[wintry trench]

\

this is what im looking at

[lament quartz]

this folder

im pointing at

[lament quartz]

just drag'n drop it

[wintry trench]

ohh okay

now what do I do

[lament quartz]

that's all

[wintry trench]

also would this be an issue

octoTex-main\OctoTex-main\

Im figuring it is

[lament quartz]

you didn't read the readme right?

[wintry trench]

I mean I have

[lament quartz]

put the octotex folder into the game's root folder

[wintry trench]

ah

and do I capture the assets in the game and then type cmd and thats where i put the commands?

[lament quartz]

like that

[lament quartz]

then open the octotex folder

open cmd there

then

pip install -r req file.txt

and

python webui.py

that's it

[wintry trench]

click on the octotex file

because mine is two folders

you click on the main

then theres the same file that says main again before you get to the actual stuff

This is what I mean

It sounds complicated but that’s what I’m saying

Is it wrong that there are two folders

[lament quartz]

put the latest one

[wintry trench]

should it be in the bin folder for garrys mod

[lament quartz]

no

[meager oar]

put the octatex- main which is inside octatex main to the root folder like right besides hl2

[wintry trench]

yep i got that

and use command prompt, not powershell right

[meager oar]

yus

do u have terminal?

[wintry trench]

developer command prompt?

[meager oar]

open the octatex folder and right click on it and see if u have a option to open terminal there

[wintry trench]

Yeah I got that

[meager oar]

yea just type python webui.py there

and enter it

it should open the web in some sec

[wintry trench]

It said can’t open it, no such directory

Oh sorry lol I didn’t do the first step

[meager oar]

can u put the whole error here

[wintry trench]

That’s what I got @meager oar

[meager oar]

pip install -r requirements.txt

try tis maybe

[wintry trench]

thats what I typed see

Waittt it’s working buddy

[lament quartz]

no you didn't

[wintry trench]

Well damn

[lament quartz]

i meant the requirements.txt file, i didn't mean to fully copy my command

[wintry trench]

should this be of any concern

cropped badly

[meager oar]

maybe do this after it finishes

pip install wheel

[wintry trench]

i did that and its installed now

and now do I do the python webui.py

[meager oar]

yus

but open cmd inside the octatex folder not anywhere else

then type python webui.py

[wintry trench]

does this look correct

[meager oar]

did u install image magick?

[wintry trench]

no

[meager oar]

u need tat

https://imagemagick.org/script/download.php

[wintry trench]

windows binary release?

[meager oar]

if your on windows then ofcourse

[wintry trench]

Im guessing the main one

ImageMagick-7.1.1-19-Q16-HDRI-x64-dll.exe

[meager oar]

yus

any version shuld wrk

ImageMagick-7.1.1-19-Q16-x64-dll.exe

i installed tis one

[wintry trench]

alright im getting that one

[lament quartz]

btw width and height does not work the way you meant to

i need to edit the code in the backend a little bit

[keen rivet]

i realised i didn't mean to push it with that

[lament quartz]

i'll just scale them at the backend

[wintry trench]

now that ive downloaded it, retry the python webui.py

now i am given this

[lament quartz]

pip install clipboard

[wintry trench]

alright now I gues retry the python webui.py lol

yes it sent me to a 'website' if you can call it that

im guessing i will go into the game and then type that after capturing assets

[wintry trench]

also, making a bat file with the commands already in them, should I have that in the main folder of garrys mod

probably should have done this a long time ago lol

[meager oar]

dang

[wintry trench]

alright i clicked capture scene

how do I acess the ui in game

or do I do it outside of the game

[meager oar]

outside

after opening the ui click on load

and then 4x upscaling

if u wanna skip upscaling

then put all the textures inside diffuse to upscaled folder

octatex main/textures/processing/

[wintry trench]

im upscaling

they all gave me errors

[meager oar]

pip install torch --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu118

do this and see if it installs somethin

it shuld download 2.7gb

[wintry trench]

im guessing i need to download whats from the link and then type that in

because typing in the command gives me this

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\GarrysMod\OctoTex-main>pip install torch --index-url

Usage:
pip install [options] <requirement specifier> [package-index-options] ...
pip install [options] -r <requirements file> [package-index-options] ...
pip install [options] [-e] <vcs project url> ...
pip install [options] [-e] <local project path> ...
pip install [options] <archive url/path> ...

--index-url option requires 1 argument

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\GarrysMod\OctoTex-main>

[meager oar]

da heck, i never saw a error like this before

[wintry trench]

hmmmm

[meager oar]

just skip upscaling i guess

[wintry trench]

we could @ alex

[meager oar]

yea ask him maybe

[wintry trench]

@lament quartz

[meager oar]

putting that pip shuld download like 2.7gb

of stuff

[lament quartz]

pip3 install torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu118

[wintry trench]

okay I did that

it says requirement already satisfied for all the lines

[meager oar]

pip3 uninstall torch torchvision torchaudio --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu118 and then do that

[lament quartz]

pip uninstall torch

[wintry trench]

okay

[meager oar]

i wonder if u can add those textures into minecraft

[wintry trench]

okay I unistalled it

and I guess reinstall it with the previous commands

[meager oar]

yus

[wintry trench]

ny computer loves the amounts of data im downloading :)

[meager oar]

is it downloading 2.7 gb?

[wintry trench]

something like that, it only tells me how much ive downloaded

at 2192 mb now

yeah it was 2.7gb

[meager oar]

good

if torch doesnt install 2.7 gb of stuff then that means it wont wrk idk why it doesnt install 2.7 gb sometimes

[wintry trench]

well thanfully weve fixed this at least I think

and yeah this download wasnt actually very difficult, just took a lot of instruction

does it usually take a while for 4x upscale

[meager oar]

it depends on the textures on how good quality they already have

[wintry trench]

i have the command prompt closed so I cant see if its giving me errors but considering its taking longer than 4 seconds im guessing its working

[meager oar]

Gold src games textures like half life 1 and etc get upscaled very fast

[wintry trench]

im doing it with the gm construc textures

[meager oar]

and Source engine games textures take sum time to upscale

[wintry trench]

alright

[meager oar]

u shuld have had the cmd opened so u can see whats going on in the background

[wintry trench]

it was closed from before

[tulip silo]

Terminal*

[wintry trench]

would it break it if I closed the ui and re did this upscale stuff

so I can see the terminal

[meager oar]

nope

[wintry trench]

wouldnt it upscale already upscaled textures tho

if i click upscale again

[meager oar]

i think it shuld skip them

[wintry trench]

i think its working

its iterating through the numbers however this line conerns me

convert_octahedral_file_to_dx called on non-existant path: textures/processing/normals/cu118_normal.png

[meager oar]

nah it shuld be fine

i get that too

[wintry trench]

Well I think number 31 broke the ai lol

It’s taking a longggg fucking time

It’s this asphalt texture I think

Been probably 7 mins on this one texture

[meager oar]

dang

is it done yet?

[wintry trench]

Nope

Starting to get concerning

[meager oar]

how many textures are u upscaling? open the webui and see if the 4x upscaling option is saying something

if it isnt saying anything then that mean it has done upscaling all the textures
