[hoary helm]

Heyo if you never got help make sure you're not on the x64 branch, I was running into the same issue earlier because I forgot too opt out of it.

[hoary helm]

Deleted my initial issue because I solved it but I ran into another. For some reason despite my several uninstalls today Reshade is still latching onto my game despite the files being completely deleted.

It's confusing because it's a fresh install and even if the d3d9 dll file was still there it was replaced by the RTX remix version.

I think that's the cause of RTX Remix literally flat out not functioning beyond the menu.

So once again would be willing too take this too DM's if anybody has any ideas, I don't understand how it's overtaking my RTX Remix DLL when it never was installed on my new installation of Garry's Mod too begin with. It shouldn't be possible.

[keen rivet]

did you do a global install of reshade for all vulkan games?

[hoary helm]

That's possible actually, I'm pretty sure I have tried installing reshade for vulkan at least once. I didn't realize it was global, I can probably fiddle with it and figure it out but by chance would you know how to go about uninstalling it in that case?

[modern granite]

have you deleted the reshade-shaders file

[keen rivet]

no clue

[modern granite]

i just delete that and its gone for me

[hoary helm]

Yes, I've been using Reshade for years and am very familiar with it. I've uninstalled it and installed it several times for various games. The main thing is ridding of the .dll file that Reshade produces so I typically keep a copy of the original file just for that. Deleting the reshade shaders folder doesn't fully remove reshade itself, just the shaders and textures you installed.

That's why I'm so lost here but I think vulkan is my lead. Those screenshots look fantastic btw! I'm hyped too get this running!

[modern granite]

goodluck pal

[half viper]

Use the bat file
And make sure you are on shadermodel 0 in dxvk.conf

[hoary helm]

Yup, I've followed Xenthio's video to a T.

I've read after a search Reshade does leave files elsewhere when installed with Vulkan so I'm searching through my computer right now for them.

[hoary helm]

Good news! I solved all of my issues.

Hopefully this'll help ppl in the future: Reshade Vulkan installs leave hidden files in ProgramData

And pertaining too the RTX Gmod won't launch with any overlays like Rivatuner or programs that alter resolution. Took me too long too figure out.

[silk ether]

um where tf is that

it says gmod is running but i cant see the process

[modern granite]

you make a text file write d3d9.shaderModel = 0

save

[silk ether]

in the gmod folder

?

[modern granite]

then rename the file to dxvk.conf

[silk ether]

garrysmod or GarrysMod

prob bin

[modern granite]

next to the gmod exe

[silk ether]

so GarrysMod

[modern granite]

yes

[silk ether]

that explains the crash

[silk ether]

now it just doesnt launch

by that i mean the game opened but i cant find the process then crashes

@modern granite do u know how to fix i

[modern granite]

have you copied the stdshader_dx6 and 7 from the portalrtx bin to the gmod bin folder?

[silk ether]

ye

[modern granite]

have you launched gmod with commands

[silk ether]

ye

[rich badge]

This is great ❤️

mine is diferrent from the one in the video

OH COME ON ITS OUTDATED

@rich badge

[modern granite]

sadge

[rich badge]

Because you've downloaded the goddamn source instead of the builds linked in that video's description. You're clearly not following the video.

[silk ether]

i downloaded the release

i found a tool that did it for me tho

[rich badge]

Just follow the video, do exactly as shown there. I don't know how he could explain it more clearly that it currently is

[silk ether]

this doesnt look like rtx

alt x doesnt work either

tf

@rich badge the tutorial doesnt work for me

there was no rtx remix in the menu notification too

oh i fuckedi t up somehow

WTF IS THIS

[modern granite]

pick the skybox texture

and set it as sky texture

[silk ether]

i never knew how that

also flashlight is broke

setting it

vanishing buildings haha

is that a cause of lag

2060 mobile

less than 30

i did

how do i do the physgun shit

only if ive known about nvidia's lack of plans for the 20 series i wouldnt have bought this 1yr after release

how long did that take

i wouldnt dare to attempt generating pbr textures lol my internet is booty

oh rlly?

i thought you gotta download it

might try it

but only the generator?

[keen rivet]

flashlight added to rtx remix fixes

[mild mist]

do u have any idea why im not getting any rtx lighting at all

I have the Alt X menu now

but no actual difference in game

[keen rivet]

make sure you've setup the dxvk.conf

[mild mist]

yeah i have

yeah contents are fine

rename it to dxvk

[mild mist]

OH

OMFG

lets do it baby

[keen rivet]

lol

[mild mist]

please work

[keen rivet]

shined light into mirror and it didnt reflect out

immersion ruined

[mild mist]

is the optional water fixes a global water fix for all maps or just the gm construct water

[keen rivet]

most maps

some maps have some custom water that doesnt work

[mild mist]

how easy is it to use octo tex

that will be my next step after this

[mild mist]

https://i.imgur.com/ehohNuB.jpeg

still no lighting

https://i.imgur.com/4nqp6jw.png

ok hmm

[mild mist]

i always seem to have these issues

y'dont say, haha

[keen rivet]

rip

doesnt die for me in that part idk whats up

[mild mist]

any idea for my issue bro

[keen rivet]

nope unfortunately sorry lol

lemme think

[mild mist]

can u send ur conf file over discord

and lemme use that

instead of mine

just an idea i had

maybe that might help

[mild mist]

where do i put rtx.conf

[mild mist]

??

[keen rivet]

root directory

of GarrysMod

[mild mist]

so garrysmodrtx in my case

sorry im so uneducated in these terms

@keen rivet instead of no rtx lighting i now crash when trying to load into a map, with this crash report

[keen rivet]

did you delete GarrysModRTX/garrysmod/bin/game_shader_garrysmod_generic.dll

[mild mist]

yes

[keen rivet]

did you use portal rtx std_shaderdx7.dll?

[mild mist]

what is that

[mild mist]

could you perhaps send it to m

[mild mist]

where do i place that

[keen rivet]

GarrysModRTX/bin

OH MY GOSHNESS

[lament quartz]

try increasing roughness

[mild mist]

very stupid question

how do i swap out textures

where do i find mod.usda?

so does material tool not work?

[mild mist]

how did you get multiplayer working

[modern granite]

the rtx remix is only client side right?

makes sense

[mild mist]

mine says my dxlevel is 80, and it needs to be 90, for any server i try join

is there any way to change that?

who can explain how to use octotex

i have no idea when it comes to the whole python stuff

im currently downloading the ai stuff from drive

i dont think i've even properly installed it, let alone began running it

[keen rivet]

You can use dxlevel 90 if shadermodel is 0

[stray haven]

no need bro /j

[modern granite]

oh mah glob

[rich badge]

Yea that won't do it for maybe around a decade maybe

[keen rivet]

anyone else tell me if mat_viewportscale 0.001 helps fix flickering ui or if i'm just crazy

i think it does

[zenith marlin]

@keen rivet Fuuck I love you ooooh I could just Jiggle your Kleiners rn mhhgh....

[wintry trench]

Listen man since you had that much trouble with just the normal rtx I would give it a few days before you try out downloading it and installing it

[manic hazel]

The baked terrain smearing is now fixed in Build #274.

[wintry trench]

one thing I noticed is how come glass doesnt work anymore like it did with the old portal rtx files

before it was semi transparent and supper blurry but now it either doesnt exist or is just black

[keen rivet]

bit buggy but i got it working more than it used to

Gmod running in shader mode

[half viper]

Yo @lament quartz we got subsurface scattering support!!!

[lament quartz]

YOOOO

That's amazing!

wish i had a time to implement it to octotex

[half viper]

I wanna have it on NPCs

[lament quartz]

probably

on the skin

[half viper]

Yes!!

[tulip silo]

What?

[lament quartz]

yes

[modern granite]

I LOVE SUBSURFACE SCATTERING

[tulip silo]

It's only for thin materials

And targeted at foliage

Doesn't have RTXDI support

Only indirect lighting

[noble cypress]

For real, actually; why isn't it doing that?
Isn't the mirror just a super reflective surface with Remix, which means it's bouncing the rays which hit it?
Why wouldn't the 'flashlight rays' do the same thing?

[lament quartz]

that's the way it calculates the light

the rays are not coming out of flashlight

so it more difficult to calculate the reflected flashlight light

or i think so

maybe i misunderstood something

[keen rivet]

It should work

In theory

Possible that since the light source isn’t a visible light source that can be hit by a ray it doesn’t work

[keen rivet]

interestingly still light doesn't reflect back out of the mirror

ot atleast not enough of it does

if we switch to reference denoiser you can see it slowly fading in

it fades out at a different angle though

PSR Reflections lose the reflected specular

[lament quartz]

did you increase "min path bounces"?

and "max path bounces"

[meager oar]

when I have flashlight on and I move right, I still see the flashlight at my original position then it either fades away or is stuck there forever.

[keen rivet]

yeah its kinda scuffed

i should make the flashlight like a mesh replacement

[meager oar]

💀 idk where he came from

[half viper]

Shares the same model as you

[lament quartz]

it visible because playermodel texture marked as pm body texture in rtx remix?

[half viper]

He spawned a ragdoll that shares the same textures

It doesn't appear for primary rays

Only secondary rays

[lament quartz]

what

[lament quartz]

Hello, do you like the new models?

[keen rivet]

Are there newer ones?

[lament quartz]

I mean the normals and roughness

I'm just interested in how well the models work

[keen rivet]

Oh yeah they’re good

They have some interesting problems with tiling

Which it didn’t have before

[lament quartz]

Hm

[keen rivet]

Roughness will gradient from left to right sometimes and causes visible tiling seams

[lament quartz]

Yeah, roughness model are more problematic

[lament quartz]

Yeah

[lament quartz]

The tiling is more visible there

[keen rivet]

I’ve been made aware that PyTorch has a padding_mode feature that when set to circular will pad images out with their opposite sides

[lament quartz]

But I like the new normals model

[keen rivet]

normals is great yeah

[lament quartz]

Wish I had more time to work on the project

[keen rivet]

I wish I had the knowledge to work on it

Or more so the patience to use python lol

[lament quartz]

It's not that hard

[keen rivet]

yeah i know

You should upload the training scripts somewhere too

[lament quartz]

Probably

I'll do that tomorrow

[rain current]

@lament quartz Ну ответь в лс

[hoary helm]

Is there a console command that would switch off visibility of the player model in the workshop addon?

I've got a camera addon I'd like too test without losing the other fixes.

[hasty charm]

Thanks yo, replying so I can grab these later 🤖❤️

[fringe ingot]

That image is so crusty looking it looks like JPEG 30

[wintry trench]

Is there a way to make it more foggy with the volumetrics

Because it kinda just breaks If you lower it or increase it

[hoary helm]

I'm assuming it's because of some of the commands on launch but I'm having issues with various addon prop/weapon models and not loading. Getting some kinda .vmt not loading error in the console.

They work and have collision but aren't visible. Any ideas?

[hoary helm]

I thought it was my RTX config so I reset it and still no fix, but any enhancements I use are just flat grey textures now? They worked at first just fine but now nothing is getting replaced properly

are the builds broken or?

I can hear the menu it's just black

but keeps not responding on start

[half viper]

@atomic dew disable all your mods

That too

[atomic dew]

Fixed it

Yes

I fixed it anyway

Wasn’t the ui

hey can anyone help i followed xenthios video and did most of the steps but when i run my garrys mod's rtx construct it just looks like this

idk what to do

[keen rivet]

make sure shadermodel is set to 0

in your dxvk.conf

[fast spear]

switched out my .conf file with yours and now whenever i try joining a map gmod just crashes

[fast spear]

sorry to bother but if you dont mind could you help me with this @keen rivet

[half viper]

Did you delete the generic shader?

Did you replace stdshaderdx7 with the one in portal rtx?

[fast spear]

did both, still crashes when i try loading a map !

[keen rivet]

hmm

what map

are you using the launch config?

try disable all addons?

[fast spear]

i just disabled all addons and have been using the launch config crashed again

[keen rivet]

gpu?

are you on the 64 bit beta? make sure you're not

[quiet scroll]

Thanks for the tutorial Xenthio! Mainly wanted to get GMOD working to see if it can apply the remix to mods, and it does! Cool to see what other things working, its like using gmod as a tool to see what RTX remix can do

[tulip silo]

what is Carl Wheezer doing LMAO

[modern granite]

danny phantom going for that top heavy build

[quiet scroll]

@keen rivet do you know if we're able to use controllers through steam with the new launcher? I wasn't able to get it working, it might be a skill issue on my end though 😦

[half viper]

On what quality do you take these screenshots?

[keen rivet]

No clue, never tried

[meager oar]

1200p performance dlss

[half viper]

No like rtx remix quality

[meager oar]

Denoiser at high, Particle quality at high, Texture Quality at high, Min ray bounces at 1 and max ray bounces at 8

Basically max settings

On 2080 super, fps depends on the map

[fast spear]

my gpu is a 3060ti and im not on the 64 bit beta

tbh i might just try again from the beginning

[half viper]

I wonder what causes the 64bit version not to work

[fast spear]

redid everything and i dunno what step i missed but now it works at least

[quiet scroll]

It seems to have somehow disabled the use of controllers, and disables the steam overlay

[quiet scroll]

Oh wait nevermind, this is an RTX games issue. Portal RTX also can't be used with controller 😦 Do you know where the dlss file is located in the folders? I noticed it's using DLSS 2.0 and not 3.0, or 3.5 for that matter.

[night bramble]

trex

[livid rapids]

Anyone having issues with invisible static props? I remember not having this issue when using the Portal RTX binaries, although I may be wrong since this was some months ago.

[livid marsh]

grigori shows his holy light

[fast spear]

i dont know how to fix this, i dont think this was happening before dark areas lit by ambient light do not stay light for long enough and result in blotchy-looking dark spots

[half viper]

Idk whats the denoiser doing here

Try increasing the denoiser quality

[fast spear]

denoiser is already at high

@half viper

[half viper]

You have RTX fixes on right?

[fast spear]

yup

[half viper]

@keen rivet what was the change that boosted gi in rtx fixes?

[keen rivet]

idk what causes that

i think its some kinda bug

is there any fix for this or no

someone try this map

it has alot of grass

i wonder how it performs

[hardy parcel]

anyone got a skybox to work with rtx?

[half viper]

Use sky auto detection

[half viper]

@soft needle is it normal that the light doesn't reflect off a perfect mirror surface in rtx remix?

[keen rivet]

it has no speculars in the perfectly reflected mirror so theres nothing for the rays to hit when bouncing into the mirror

[lament quartz]

also, there aren't caustics

[meager oar]

Max rtx settings perf dlss = 7 fps

low rtx settings perf dlss =18 fps

low rtx settings ultra perf dlss = 28 fps

max rtx settings perf dlss + alpha textures disabled = 55 to 60 fps

[half viper]

Can you select the grass textures for OMMs?

[meager oar]

whats OMMs? opacity micro map?

[half viper]

Yes

[meager oar]

yea i selected it and set it as that didnt do anythin

[half viper]

Huh

[half viper]

What gpu do you have and resolution?

[meager oar]

2080 super in 1920x1200 res

[half viper]

@manic hazel is it normal that it performs like that?

Its a map with alot of dense grass

[meager oar]

yea vegetation lowers the fps a lot

i disabled them and boom fps goes to 60

[half viper]

What i meant is that OMMs dont effect the performance

Which is weird

[manic hazel]

OMMs are automatically enabled for all applicable non fully opaque textures

[half viper]

Ohh

[manic hazel]

It would be good to see the interactions debug view with OMMs ON and off. Use "Enable binding" setting to toggle OMMs. See #1156250284230721547 message

Also what GPU are you ON. OMMs have larger impact on Ada (40** series)

If the grass is composed of batched geometry that changes frame to frame and thus the batch hash changes that will prevent OMMs to apply unless you stabilize that (i.e. don't move camera and wait 10-20 seconds for OMMs to generate). The interactions debug view will show if OMMs are having any impact. We plan on improving batched geo support for OMMs in the future, but it'd be good to know if that's the case here.

[manic hazel]

Note the OMM texture category is for disabling OMMs for a given texture so you don't want to be selecting it unless there's an issue.

[keen rivet]

the grass just behaves funnily

Woah! How'd you get it inside garrysmod? I didn't see the 2012 version as a selectable game in the dropmenu after you install it 👀

[sinful vigil]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=473095542

you simply do it for the installation of black mesa 2012

The game works much better in garry's mod and you can also add more fixes to the game

oh btw, i was able to add the latest version of black mesa to garry's mod, the only problem is that every map crashes when you try to load it

[modern fulcrum]

Can we play on gmod server's with rtx remix ?

[lament quartz]

yea, you can

[quiet scroll]

Thanks!

[modern granite]

i think some might flag it as exploit or something

[lament quartz]

Gmod have no vac so

Btw I never meet anyone who uses cheats in the Gmod lol

What the point

[subtle bison]

gmod does have VAC but there isnt much reason to cheat in the majority of gamemodes and servers. Remix probably wont trigger VAC as its only hooking into d3d9 and not any game functions like a ASI loader would

the only source game exception i can think of was CSGO, it would not let you use d3d9.dll to inject anything

[woeful phoenix]

VAC is not enabled in gmod

full stop

VAC secure at this point is moreso steam authentication, due to how auth is rooted within VAC. The load screen doesn't even have the VAC secure stuff anymore for example

Having VAC on gmod is inherently against the idea of the platform, because you can make C++ modules, injectors, etc. Vac would split it's shit open if you tried

So I wouldn't worry about busting the game up

[modern fulcrum]

Okay thanks

[valid elbow]

Yes. But filled backgrounds ( draw.RoundedBox ) is gonna be bugged, so 2d3d renders are gonna "break screen", while hud is gonna flick

[quiet scroll]

Is there a way to save after we've selected our playermodel textures? I click save but my playermodel appears if I load into another map 😦

Guys English please so we can understand eachother

[full lance]

Yeah, this isn't even gta or stalker modding

[keen rivet]

English would be nice

[night plinth]

Nah

[keen rivet]

I figured out how to fix it

Disabled NEE cache

[lament quartz]

Ok, I will develop the rtx remix launcher called luminance

And I will need someone who will handle the Garry's mod game for the launcher

I will provide all the things for it

And will create a repo

What I mean is
( the launcher will have a custom repository list with the supported games, and the links will flow to the GitHub repositories with scripts to patch the game, and etc )

I will need someone who will handle the Gmod repo in the future

[half viper]

@rich badge already has a repo for gmod

[rich badge]

1 - I deleted that as the game is now launching at first try (for me) from now on
2 - The project ALEX has in mind is something else than a simple launcher script

[rich badge]

What about another approach where there'll be playbooks which people can reference to the repos of their combination of patches & mods to play with. The launcher could switch between playbooks before launch and remastering projects could have their official playbooks

[lament quartz]

Yeah but what if someone will decide to publish malware?

[rich badge]

I think this a problem even without such feature. In what I had in mind, you don't expose commands or actions to execute, it just lists patches and mod combinations. It could have a verified signature or some sort of crowd sourced approach as a further security measure.

An example psudo implementation:
example.playbook: zip file

• icon.png
• manifest.json: containing title, description, authors etc.
• content.json: containing links to repositories for patches, mods etc

In content.json:

{
  "patches": ["https://github.com/author/gameremixed/patches/patch1.i337", "https://github.com/author/gameremixed/patches/patch2.i337"],
  "mods": ["https://github.com/author/gameremixed/mods/3dfoliage/3dfoliage.usda", "https://github.com/author/gameremixed/mods/pbr_materials/pbr_materials.usda"]
}

then it dynamically composites those individual usdas in the mod.usda as layers.

have you tried adding pbr to the rest of the textures? they look kinda flat tbh

[keen rivet]

I haven’t done the ones on this map yet

[compact blaze]

if u ever get the chance you should definitely do it for the map

[keen rivet]

Yeah I will at some point

@lament quartz did you ever get around to adding the button that imports, upscales, generates all pbr, then exports automatically?

[lament quartz]

nope

cuz i was busy

and im still kinda busy

ah no worries then

There should be a conf file

You can manually disable these textures

[potent agate]

Good to know, but idk what the textures are or where to look

once I get this fixed I'm gonna try and find a way to make every texture not super shiny unless that also fixes it

Well actually I'd rather figure out how octo works and use it here

[lament quartz]

so mw base doesn't work on this?

yea, rn it doesn't work

Also someone know how to fix mirror issue?

"зеркалит" изображение?

[night plinth]

В прямом смысле баг зеркала

Если на карте есть зеркало

То заходя в комнату с ним игра лютом лагает и почти все пропадает

[lament quartz]

у xenthio есть констракт, на котором он вырубил зеркало

и вместо него реплейсмент на зеркале

надо будет обязательно в хаммере пройтись по картам, у которых зеркала

и заменить их на те, что у xenthio

[night plinth]

Да вот я как раз об этом помнил

Вот и спрашиваю

Как убрать его

Ну и как поставить

[lament quartz]

а это уже совсем другая история

[night plinth]

Ну разве что через Омниверс

Но меш реплейсмеет это конечно...

[lament quartz]

надо тулкит ждать, во-первых

во-вторых, если всё-таки и реплейсмент ставит, зеркало то не уберётся

you'd be suprised how many early 2000s slav games are just modded bootlegs of preexisting games

we're all modders in the end tho who can help eachother :D

[lament quartz]

[night plinth]

Looks amazing tbh

Even without PBR

[half viper]

Shouldn't rtx remix fixes cover this? @keen rivet

[night plinth]

Someone could solve this?

When using phys gun on object everything became rastarized

[half viper]

Use rtx remix fixes mod

Maybe you didn't delete the generic shader

[night plinth]

generic?

i think i deleted something

like shader

[half viper]

The generic game shader dll that's in the game files

If non of that works download FUCKEM HALOS

[night plinth]

i actually didnt remember if i installed this. Need to check

[night plinth]

Could you provide it?

What you mean exactly

This or something else?

Also where to find this generic shader?

And one more question: Does having about 20-30 fps on 3060ti is normal?

[rich glen]

yes

🥺

[keen rivet]

only on gm_construct_rtx

i'm gonna see if i can use code to replace mirrors with the rtx mirrors automatically at somepoint

[wanton scarab]

Might need a BSP parser if the mirrors are brush entities

[keen rivet]

yeah ive already got one

actually since its a brush entity i dont need it

[night plinth]

@keen rivet In your mod there are links on water, mirror fixes. Could they help in other maps?

[keen rivet]

If you recompile the map replacing the mirror with a texture that the addon adds that is “mirror texture” written in ms paint

[hoary helm]

So I've been trying too work on these for a minute but no matter what I do the replacements make certain things look like "plastic". Nothing too serious, it's only guns and NPC's but this happens regardless of whether PBR is included or not.

Any ideas?

[half viper]

I don't see any signs of PBR

Did you use ai?

[hoary helm]

Ignore the monsters on the right, as those I didn't touch. And no I've been handmaking roughness/metalness maps

It literally only happens with guns and monsters, all of my map textures look fantastic

[half viper]

Did you use the correct compression mode?

[hoary helm]

8-bit color with DC7 compression as far as I'm aware is what is used, however this is me editing the PNG's directly in OctoTex so OctoTex is handling converting them back too .dds

[half viper]

#1111273025657114654 message

[hoary helm]

I'll give resaving them a shot but this happens even when I just use the upscaled textures and use the default material settings that OctoTex uses, the max roughness and no metalness

[half viper]

Maybe due to lack of subsurface scattering for skin?

Im not really sure tbh

[hoary helm]

I have been reading people talk about how skin would look weird with RTX Remix so that could simply be it. Doesn't necessarily explain why gun replacements look oddly plastic despite the roughness maps being properly set up.

I will say tho other than that Cry of Fear maps look pretty bomb after upscaling and setting up PBR, shame the monsters aren't a big fan of my handy work tho lmao

[half viper]

Awesome job

[hoary helm]

Appreciate it, I spent a couple days on just this map lmao. Not a big fan of the results of either the legacy or AI roughness maps but I worked out a super reliable method with Paint(.)NET, but that's awful for batch editing like this so it takes so much time.

[lament quartz]

can you show pbr materials on arc9 weapons?

[hoary helm]

Yeah gimme a sec I'll go fetch a couple captures and do that.

[hoary helm]

Side by sides, left is upscaled with normals/roughness and right is enhancements off.

[lament quartz]

huh, looks a little normal

[hoary helm]

Normal? This looks like a Walmart toy lmaoo

And here's the roughness maps used. I kept the original one made by the legacy setting for the Kar98 thinking that'd might make a difference but they should by no means be shiny

[lament quartz]

wait

As I know, the alpha channel of the normal in source is a roughness map

and alpha channel of diffuse is metallic map

[hoary helm]

So if I'm understanding right these would need too be transparent in order too apply properly?

[lament quartz]

yea

[hoary helm]

Unfortunately after a bit of testing that didn't end up working out, not entirely sure what could be going on with these cause map textures work just fine. Too be fair I haven't tried doing anything with any other NPC's other than the Cry of Fear ones tho I imagine the same issue would occur, and same thing with the guns I only went out of my way too try the Arc9 set but I'll bet the Half Life 2 weapons would come out looking the same way. Shame cause they look fine by default after setting the legacy metalness too 1 in Remix itself cause the same thing occurs until you change that.

[hoary helm]

Yikes, I had hope these newer versions of the bridge and dxvk wouldn't demolish my performance but does anyone know why the newest version just guts my framerate? There's like a 10% loss of performance and I can't fathom why.

[half viper]

Are you sure about that?

[hoary helm]

Absolutely. I loaded into the same map as a control and on the newest versions I dropped around 10 frames on average. Hanging around 20FPS. On the version that was the newest when Xenthio dropped his video I run just fine at 30-40FPS which for my GPU isn't surprising. I'm not the only one with this issue either though I got a Youtube comment on one of my showcases asking why my performance was beating his on a 3060Ti

[half viper]

Wait

You mean the new parallax occlusion commit?

[hoary helm]

I'm pretty sure yeah

Though I tested it not too long ago with a couple other versions before this commit tho and I've had the same issue

[half viper]

Try using ray marching for POM

Im pretty sure there is an option to change it in the rtx remix dev settings

[hoary helm]

Alright I'll give that a shot, I'll update if it works out.

[keen rivet]

lol well that solves that

[half viper]

I really don't know why it didn't work

[half viper]

Guys does the detail textures (i think its called that? The textures that make other textures disappear) change hashes randomly?

Plus it's kinda getting less stable

Like models suddenly teleport around in the world
And some props are invisible

[rich badge]

Are there Metalness maps?

[tulip silo]

there are

[keen rivet]

not that i'm aware

works fine for me

[quiet scroll]

I think I see what you mean lmao. I update my Remix to the latest one every time I boot the game. The first two screenshots is a map area I've been to a few times and not had any missing textures issues - and I've not really configured many of the textures since visiting. I do notice if I move around and adjust the camera, they'll fade in and be visible, and go away if I move again.

The other two are maps from half life: source. Same thing, I move the camera about and they appear/disappear randomly

But who knows, I load up Construct Fix map and everything's fine

[keen rivet]

looks like there are detail textures that you need to set to be ignored

you can copy all the ignored textures from my config file to make it easier if you want

[quiet scroll]

Thank you! 😁

[woeful phoenix]

@keen rivet Would you mind sending me the water shader USDA stuff you set up? I've got a few overlapping textures in Dark Messiah from HL2s water. Example is that construct water material

this looks like a photoscan

[half viper]

because it is

[rich glen]

it is

also every photoscan map works pretty fine.

[noble cypress]

I don't see what benefit RTX could have in photoscan maps, anyway. All the lighting is already baked, and they're effectively unplayable due to the small space they make.
You can't get better lighting than actual photos from reality.

[night bramble]

can't tell if this is a new problem
walls and floor and stuff will randomly disappear for a split second like I have xray

[meager oar]

I think that's due to the 3d sky I disable it( The new Camera option below Sky Parameter) and it stops doing that

And yes it's a old problem, Experienced it in CSS when the Camera options that fixed the 3d skyboxes were added for the first time

Months ago

[meager oar]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNp6uAMJ4Ls&t=23s

i seem to get 40 fps in this map now as compared to 70 in the old remix version for some reason

[half viper]

portal rtx version runs alot better than current with anti culling patches

[night bramble]

not this ?

[meager oar]

no. Open remix go to game settings and under sky parameters you will see a new option saying something about camera just set it to none or off. this basically fixes the 3d sky box well almost but can cause things like when entering a new room almost everything suddenly disappears for a split second and it does that everytime until you disable it.

[night bramble]

Ok

[night bramble]

this?

sky auto detect?

[half viper]

nope

[hexed hare]

(the one that can be activated in the "beta" section of steam

[half viper]

thats probably why it doesnt work

[hexed hare]

ahhh might be that

okay imma redo the whole thing

[half viper]

opt out the betas

[hexed hare]

yep

[half viper]

might reread the pins too

[hexed hare]

got the pins on my right screen

imma redo the whole process, i'll keep you in touch kay ?

ill be gone for a bit

[hexed hare]

okay np

[half viper]

@hexed hare hows your progress?

[plain blade]

ok I have a problem, recently I accidentally deleted gmod with rtx remix, and after reinstalling everything, gmod is working but rtx remix doesnt

how to fix this problem?

like alt+x doesnt work

and it doesnt change the graphics

[half viper]

are you on a beta?, did you put it in the bin folder? how did you install remix?

What did you download?

[plain blade]

well i installed the rtx remix from github https://github.com/NVIDIAGameWorks/rtx-remix/releases and put all files in bin folder and yes im on beta

in fact i created different folder for rtx remix

[half viper]

for the rtx remix files???

[plain blade]

yes

[half viper]

bruh

grab those files and drop them in the bin folder

[plain blade]

read the text again

[half viper]

opt out the beta

show me a pic where did you put the rtx remix files

[half viper]

okay good

yeah win64

you are on the 64 bit branch

not gonna work

opt out

and redo the process

[plain blade]

alright so i need to:
1)delete the game folder with rtx
2) change branch to normal
3)create a folder again and copy the gmod files and put rtx remix in it

am I understanding this correctly?

[half viper]

yea

[hexed hare]

sorry i was out for a moment

so it worked kinda

textures and effects are a bit odd tho

i'll see if i can capture that in video later on, but that will probably be tomorrow...

[plain blade]

@half viper ok alt+x now working but when im trying to load the map game crashes

[half viper]

what map

[plain blade]

the house you can destroy

i dont remeber the name

[half viper]

oh

weird

did you replace the stdshader?

and disable all your mods?

[plain blade]

whats that

[half viper]

and remove the generic shader?

[half viper]

did you read the pins?

[plain blade]

i dont have portal rtx

can you share the stdshader and generic shader?

[hexed hare]

It's a free game, can't you just... Download it?

Or add it to your steam acc, and download the files through steamdb?

[hexed hare]

Noice

Viewmodels with PBR support?

[meager oar]

yus

[plain blade]

yeah so i changed the files

didnt work

same shit

here's my problem btw

[hexed hare]

Mhhh check https://github.com/BlueAmulet/SourceRTXTweaks/tree/main/garrysmod

Modify the menu.lua and background.lua files

Accordingly to the recommendations

[plain blade]

i did that in the start

[hexed hare]

That's... Weird...

Well actually my instance too is quite buggy

I solved most of the issues by purging the game files and downloading everything again

[plain blade]

hmm

can you solve my problem in vc?

[hexed hare]

I can't VC atm

My apologies

[plain blade]

oh ok

[plain blade]

its ok

maybe i should reinstall gmod and repeat the process again'

[hexed hare]

That's probably the best shot you could give

[keen rivet]

the patches dont

[hexed hare]

But it takes time

[keen rivet]

but remix i think does

[hexed hare]

Yeah i saw that 😅

[keen rivet]

i've had it working on 64 bit

but its just better on 32bit

since the rendering is different a little on 64

[hexed hare]

Yep! Rtx remix does work but it's unstable. I managed to launch it for a few hours and the next day, the game couldn't boot, with the VRAM issue

[keen rivet]

unfortunate

[hexed hare]

Indeed

The dll files being different, i couldn't patch them like we should.

[keen rivet]

going to point people who are having issues towards my tutorial

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hck4sFx2Qj0

it may be of help

[hexed hare]

It's your repo? On github, i mean

[keen rivet]

no

[hexed hare]

Oh.
Okay

[keen rivet]

the patches belong to @fringe ingot

they're doing awesome stuff

[hexed hare]

Yeah

[fringe ingot]

I haven't worked on 64bit patches since people are replacing gmod files with portalrtx files which aren't 64bit

[hexed hare]

Even tho i'm not a huge fan of running scripts on my pc, this one is fairly well made from what i saw. It's legit.

[keen rivet]

In my video I did modify the patcher to be more automatic

just to help people by removing extra steps

it makes the folder tree and makes the replacement easier by turning it into a copy paste
