[weak ermine]

damm

its so

ai sloped

[runic gale]

[modern quest]

high boost filter on it helps a bit

[runic gale]

ah

[brittle token]

some addon caused me to crash.. i just dont know which one

[weak ermine]

disable all

profit

[brittle token]

gonna play garry's game

[weak ermine]

no way

sbix?

sbox?

[brittle token]

nah, the first one

[weak ermine]

gasys mode

incredible gassy

[brittle token]

NOooo

[weak ermine]

yeeeee

[brittle token]

this dumb addon was making my fps go from 30 fps to 2 fps

this mf fell from the ceiling and scared the f out of me

[polar anchor]

HL2 Beta Vertigo?

[brittle token]

i think so

ye

the volumetrics do get kinda annoying, even though they are disabled

[meager oar]

me too

[polar anchor]

ignore or hide the particles bro

[brittle token]

i think it looked too empty afterwards, not sure though, i already uninstalled it and went looking for another map

it's a lot less greenish tinted than expected, tried turning off ray tracing. process went kaboom

[polar anchor]

Any map from Neotokyo seems to work well in remix

[brittle token]

omgg that looks so well-

aaand the concrete tube is glowing

still haven't replaced the gas station part ceiling lights with planes to avoid the metal roof self-reflecting

it's about to start pondering the meaning of it's life. that can NOT be allowed

[keen rivet]

these are actually really decent upscales, probably the best ive seen ai do.

[runic gale]

Yep

[turbid barn]

no way

it looks like from ambientfg

these two are nice

[compact blaze]

what tools did you use for this result

[turbid barn]

i've just wanted to ask the same question lol

[runic gale]

SUPIR for upscalling (within ComfyUI), Adobe Substanced 3D Sampler (For Normals, Height maps, Roughness & Metallic)

yeah

For grass textures it had the Foliage refine enabled.

Here's normal and Upscalled Wood Texture.

[keen rivet]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[runic gale]

yea

[subtle bison]

where did all of the high frequency detail go

[runic gale]

Probably denoised.

normal and upscaled

[weak ermine]

more like blurred

ultra blurred

[runic gale]

crappy css camera quality

much better

[keen rivet]

You should do something with these replacements

Upload them to moddb

[hasty sonnet]

UK rn

[hasty sonnet]

the tactile pavement is findable on AmbientCG

[winter radish]

Bundle them with Gmod RTX

[subtle bison]

😶

personally i would not like to include AI upscaled assets in the main project

[winter radish]

Bu- but AI assets are so good!
(Bans AI assets from P2 RTX)

[subtle bison]

i dont think we use any AI assets in p2 rtx?

[winter radish]

We don’t, I would never allow it

Even for the Steam publishing initiative, I ask that a majority of the assets are not AI

[subtle bison]

wheatley's albedo was AI upscaled with stable diffusion but i used a lot of controlnet masks, and all of the PBR was manually done via substance painter

you cant even tell it was AI 🤓

because it was 90% manual work

[winter radish]

And we never saw that model again

[subtle bison]

😿

[willow fog]

I can. And I thought it was only a temporary thing

I didn't know the slop was supposed to be final

[subtle bison]

show me

[willow fog]

You know what it looks like

[subtle bison]

i just told you it has none of the usual ai looking stuff because it was so heavily masked 💀

ill get a pic hold on

#1289195427119501424 message
#1289195427119501424 message

i even made the eye by scratch 😿

[willow fog]

But I can still that it LOOKS off

[subtle bison]

how, there is like 5 different layers on top of it 💀

the 2nd one is admittedly pretty rough looking, i think i did dirty wheatley first so i was still getting the hang of substance

clean wheatley (1st vid) looks good to me imo

[weak ermine]

nuh

[winter radish]

You’re forgetting he’s the same guy who noticed our displacements were off before we did

[subtle bison]

wdym

[winter radish]

One of the floor assets in P2 RTX has messed up displacements

[subtle bison]

guh

lets just add burrito to the team then

[winter radish]

#1351698358376337549 message

[winter radish]

Dude already has a bunch on his plate with the weapons thing

[subtle bison]

ok that one is pretty obvious lmao

[wispy crest]

based

ai cringe

[winter radish]

It’s funny because Eman’s cracked version corrected it

[wispy crest]

there are tons of free pbr materials out there

[subtle bison]

ye but a lot of them dont usually mix with the original asset
If i go that route i usually try to mix them in substance

[wispy crest]

way better than plugging stuff into an ai upscaler

[wispy crest]

lol the HLA model is better than this ai trash

[subtle bison]

ye that generator should not have a sheen like that

if anything the original diffuse looks pretty close to irl lmao

[runic gale]

yea

[subtle bison]

going back to our roots 🔥

welcome back custom render code, i missed you

311fps on construct is peak

[weak ermine]

and no lights

imagine remix api lights

[subtle bison]

lightupdater will be replaced with remix api lights, patience

[weak ermine]

what about moddb launcher support

[subtle bison]

[subtle bison]

this alt version of gmod rtx is my own fork so i am removing pretty much everything related to engine modifications where I can

which is why hl2rtx model replacments will not work, at least for now

[hasty sonnet]

LowTierYuri

[subtle bison]

its not replacing the normal gmod rtx, its just an optional version

[weak ermine]

mp works?

[subtle bison]

idk i just started 30 mins ago

[weak ermine]

damn

[weak ermine]

now mp works?

[subtle bison]

mp has been working

since 0.8.0

[winter radish]

mp works?

[subtle bison]

[subtle bison]

🤓

good enough right?

[turbid barn]

i'd manually made that black glass on the camera rough 0 metall 1

[weak ermine]

mmm

yammy

[subtle bison]

i missed you voidplaces

[subtle bison]

200fps in construct remastered ❤️
also i forgot my custom render addons actually hide the 3d skybox so it actually looks pretty decent

3dsky says hi

[willow fog]

cr is up to shenanigans

[subtle bison]

im up to peak shenanigans

[hasty sonnet]

steven here

[willow fog]

mmm

[subtle bison]

i miss RR 💔

[wispy crest]

that Garmin shouldnt be that bright

the thing on the wrist

it really shouldn't glow at all

[willow fog]

Noted

And promptly ignored

[weak ermine]

yeah bro

[wispy crest]

rude

[weak ermine]

[subtle bison]

ever since i removed the model fixes from the binary module, my random gmod crashes have stopped...
I guess our signatures need to be updated for newest gmod?

its weird because they still work as hl2rtx replacements work fine

[keen rivet]

We? You're on the team? 👀

[subtle bison]

yea

i havent been too active due to me working on gmod rtx mostly

[keen rivet]

Damnnn

[keen rivet]

Oh lol

[subtle bison]

speaking of gmod ^ :3

[keen rivet]

Damn

I don't get random crashes last I checked

[subtle bison]

ik you did 99% of the work on this, i have no idea where to start to get new signatures

it doesnt crash in the module which is what makes it hard to debug lmao

its always in engine.dll

[keen rivet]

Fuck I forgor I would have to look at it myself, I swear I documented getting them in code comments

[subtle bison]

wait i think i fucked up

i also removed like 90% of the engine binary patches, those could also be causing it 💀

sorry lmao

[subtle bison]

(in my fork, main project is untouched)

[keen rivet]

Ye I heard of the fork

I have no clue how mod compatibility will go in that

[subtle bison]

wdym

like mesh replacements?

[keen rivet]

Like any mod that relies on how gmod renders

[subtle bison]

oh, well i guess nothing breaks since it was the primary render method for x64 for a while lol

[keen rivet]

also animated models sounds like a nightmare lol

[keen rivet]

Oh you're just doing maps?

[subtle bison]

and static props and displacments

[keen rivet]

Ah

Does the fixes not still contain those options? What's the reason for a fork?

[subtle bison]

i removed them since they dont exact fit in with everything else. The engine patches make the game run much worse, if you add the custom render stuff on top, its barely any faster than normal world rendering. So my fork is just removed engine patches and anything in the binary module except the remixapi foundation

[keen rivet]

Fair enough

[subtle bison]

all 3 of those are pretty well implemented, but im moving most of the mesh building and vertex creation to the module

oops wrong reply

the goal is to get the module to do the heavily lifting, and using only lua render hooks to present the vertexes, faces, etc. I'm hoping its easier than just hooking but i guess i will find out

[subtle bison]

i will still be maintaining both the main project and fork, because i consider them to be two distinctly different versions, they cant replace each other

[keen rivet]

Fair enough, I knew that already, I can't wait to see performance improvements

My main concern is dividing the replacements on moddb

[subtle bison]

wdym?

[brittle token]

i wonder if there's any way to make models render smooth, like in blender

[subtle bison]

iirc we do, just some models in particular are a bit weird

[brittle token]

the obj's get a bit quirky at night

[winter radish]

Do sb_omen next

[glass plinth]

it's so weird coming back to gmod rtx after a couple of months and just having it work flawlessly with all my mods

normally i would have to disable just about everything, but now I'm seeing it work on addons??

this is the mod https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3541800741

[keen rivet]

there will be replacements made for one version and not the other

speaking of mod replacements

does moddb have an api

[runic gale]

[keen rivet]

@burnt agate Hey, so I co develop one of the launchers for gmod rtx and I was wondering if moddb has any sort of public api or anything? All I can find is stuff for mod.io which doesn't seem to be what I'm looking for. Sorry for the ping, lol.

[subtle bison]

for meshes only probably, texture hashes and the pre-existing anchor entity stuff work fine

but maybe I can get the static prop hashes to match?

idk

[keen rivet]

maybe but i think that relies on how exactly they're composed and sent to direct x

[subtle bison]

ye that is my worry

worst comes to worst, i can come up with some way to create an alternative USDA set for hl2rtx assets

i dont think anyone does mesh replacements outside of that anyway

[keen rivet]

or we go back to that old idea i had of making hash rainbow tables

[subtle bison]

sure

[keen rivet]

where we create a table of two hashes across the two systems that are really the same thing

[subtle bison]

yea i vaguely remember you talking about it before

[glass plinth]

for some reason all of the maps i'm trying default to the same blue skybox, and I can't find the map's skybox texture anywhere

[keen rivet]

i think thats the default texture for when a map uses a shader based skybox

[glass plinth]

is there a way i can fix it without resorting to HDRI?

[torpid sedge]

^only fix that i can think of and that ive done was using skybox editor

[glass plinth]

🥀

I remember it being as easy as assigning textures to the Sky, I must have been lucky with my map choices

[keen rivet]

rough idea for if moddb does have an api or something

[winter radish]

Just ask the Moddb people for a collaboration

Ez

I’m sure there’s a few around here somewhere

[modern quest]

an official API would be best

there is this i found: https://moddb.readthedocs.io/en/stable/

but it's a scraper technically so not too good to use

[glass plinth]

anyone know what the cause of this issue is? I'm assuming it is because the gamemode's UI is 3D but I can't find wherever this Picture-in-Picture thing is to remove it

[wispy crest]

what did you do

[glass plinth]

nothing, I was just curious to see how Gmod RTX would do with the Map Sweepers gamemode

[glass plinth]

it goes away whenever I use a radial menu, so it surely must be tied to that, right?

[keen rivet]

That's the only thing I could find

[polar anchor]

Do you go through and select the UI elements?

[glass plinth]

I’m sure that’s what I need to do, I just can’t find the UI elements anywhere when looking through the categories

[polar anchor]

make it so the uncategorized textures appear at the top

[glass plinth]

https://tenor.com/view/american-psycho-willem-dafoe-duh-duhh-obviously-gif-16794513

I’ll try that tomorrow and I’ll share the results, should I unmount some games so I don’t have as much bloat to sort through?

I have HL1:S, TF2, L4D2, and Portal mounted

[polar anchor]

id say unmount hl1s

since they dont really look good with remix lol

[keen rivet]

Does anyone want to try out the new version of the rtx launcher before I merge it into main? I feel like I might possibly be forgetting features?

[hasty sonnet]

oh my god bruh

[keen rivet]

ok fuck it i'm merging

[runic gale]

eh.

[polar anchor]

Will it be replaced in an update or would we have to redownload the launcher?

[keen rivet]

replaced I think, but I wont do a proper release until i'm sure its working

[polar anchor]

The ground looks really good though id have to say the Metal Sheeting wall texture kinda looks odd in the 4th image

[keen rivet]

the PBR workflow for those textures seems really good

the upscaler is kinda crap but otherwise those are really good

[keen rivet]

got the automatic builds doing the linux thing now

[hushed trail]

Trying to get this working on the steam deck.

Is there a way for me to direct it to my Garry’s mod install? It doesn’t detect it.

[turbid barn]

gm_lakeview has unique skybox

ik there are much more maps

it's the map i remember

[turbid barn]

probably HUD addod

i've met simillar bug using Tarkov HUD

[keen rivet]

Ohh I don't have the setup done for Linux support at all yet

but @subtle bison I win the battle of being first to launch on steam deck

Guess that just means I need to somehow detect Steam installation location on Linux

[subtle bison]

for all i know my newer version works but it hasnt been tried yet 😭

[subtle bison]

you also gotta do all of the proton shenanigans 🫃

[keen rivet]

I don't have a Linux machine to test any of that on

Also I merged the codebases

I think some features might be missing like the auto extraction mounting stuff

[subtle bison]

mind trying mine
https://github.com/sambow23/RTXLauncher-rs/releases/tag/v0.2

[wintry hornet]

hey cr do you think you'll be able to fix where models arent being rendered in gmod with rtx mod being on?

[subtle bison]

got an example?

[wintry hornet]

wait i'll send you a image

[wintry hornet]

here as you can see it renders the cape but not the model

it works perfectly normal in gmod but in rtx gmod it doesnt render it

[subtle bison]

since the player model selector is rasterized, it just means it doesnt render in source engine's fixed function path

not much can be done for that

the model author would have to re-compile the model in a sw.vtx model format that is compatible

and if that doesnt work, its something else unknown to me

[wintry hornet]

i see i mean i created the model so i will try to recompile the sw.vtx then thanks for letting me know

[winter radish]

Wdym? I did it already

You’re second

[subtle bison]

@winter radish does my launcher work?

[winter radish]

I haven’t tested since 0.1

[wispy crest]

some of nemez combine soldiers do not render at all

[runic gale]

idk man

[wispy crest]

you not sending the images in the same message so i can quickly swap between them with arrow keys

second one you did

[runic gale]

yea

[wispy crest]

also those brick tiles are too deep

[wispy crest]

the thing separating the tiles are grout, not ravines

there should be no relative elevation change

i know you are using ai, but the ai is thinking is a deep gap

[runic gale]

probably, (and yes it's ai)

[wispy crest]

and I know it looks good at first glance, but anything more it just looks wrong

[wintry hornet]

Okay so I figured out what it was and I'll be leaving this as a fix for anyone who has same issue as I did with model not rendering

So appearntly the issue occures when you got too many vertexs on the model once it meets up 21000 vertexs it renders it normal above that number it will cause an error and not being able to render it

Hope it helps anyone in the near future

[subtle bison]

so do you just reduce it?

im gonna assume the shader backend of gmod doesnt have this limit as well?

[hushed trail]

Gets to the end of the process, but doesn’t actually launch.

Is there a location I can manually launch it from?

[subtle bison]

check to see if it can find your proton version, on my arch system it found it automatically, but you might have to specify it in settings

[hushed trail]

It found my experimental

Do I need x64?

[subtle bison]

it should work for x32 but it doesnt hurt to try

when you press launch, steam should open up and launch the copy of the game.

i think im gonna throw steamos on my bc250 so i can test this as well, maybe im not accounting for something unique on the deck

[subtle bison]

looks like the steamos kernel is a little too old for the bc250 so im doing bazzite, i hope its close enough

[wintry hornet]

yea you reduce the vertexs for it to work otherwise it would causae the rendering issue

sorry for late respond

[wintry hornet]

and im not 100% sure but i think gmod without rtx can handle more vertexs because it rendered mine with 51000 vertexs in it for some reasons that same method i used doesnt work for rtx version of gmod

[subtle bison]

to be clear, its not remix/rtx, its just the fixed function render path of source

if you turn of RT in the runtime, it will still not render

[wintry hornet]

ohh my bad >~<

[subtle bison]

all good

[wintry hornet]

yea it wont but i figured the fix so if anyone comes to the issue its that

[subtle bison]

yeah ill keep that in mind, glad the cause was found

[wintry hornet]

i mean one person stated some half life alyx models arent rendering either and said it could be the issue with like bin folder due of fixes being applied but i think its cuz those models use more vertexs and dont render properly cuz of it even the gmod console it self says the rendering error

[subtle bison]

im not an expert on source models, but is it not possibble to slice those up into seperate meshes to stay under the limit without reducing polygon count?

[wintry hornet]

i mean it can in bodygroups but my model was a whole thing as one which is why i didnt want to reduce any vertexs on it for example you cant put i believe arms and legs as bodygroups or as a whole model you can put like hats caps and those sort of small body groups but the problem on my end was my whole model was a high poly model and i used blender source tool to reduce the vertexs for it sure it makes it look like low poly model but its how it works

[subtle bison]

gotcha

[hushed trail]

Has anyone tried lsfg? I can’t seem to get any of my source rtx games to boot with it. But I’m not sure if I have it installed correctly, or if the steam deck just can’t handle all that.

[subtle bison]

lsfg on linux or just on windows?

ik there was a decky plugin just recently made that ported it

but i havent tried it

still trying to get bazzite to run my launcher atm lol, i fucked up some compile flags

[hushed trail]

Linux, trying the decky plugin

[subtle bison]

ill give it a go in a bit if i can figure out my current issue

[willow fog]

How are we feeling today, chat?

[wintry hornet]

good how about you :3

[willow fog]

I woke up. It's The middle of the night. Probably gonna fall asleep again.

[wintry hornet]

i see i hope you will be able to have a wonderful sleep and wonderful dreams if you do fall asleep again

[willow fog]

[subtle bison]

got the launcher running finally, it seems to "just" work for me on bazzite after telling it to autodetect the proton install

[hushed trail]

I must have the Curse of the Pharaoh unfortunately

[subtle bison]

did it ever launch for you on x64?

you do have to reinstall gmod rtx when switching branches

and i assume you have set gmod to use proton?

[hushed trail]

I did reinstall, and yeah no didn’t launch on x64

It try’s, I see the play button start then stop almost immediately.

Almost too fast in a way that makes me think it’s not trying anythng

[subtle bison]

sounds like proton itself is crashing

does the vanilla game run?

gmod rtx will use the same compatdata folder as vanilla, so vanilla should be having the same issue

[glass plinth]

sorry for late response but do you know where in the hud mod you were able to find the duplicate image?

[turbid barn]

i have no idea it depends on you

try cl_showhud 0

[glass plinth]

i found two duplicate screen textures but disabling them does nothing

[turbid barn]

if it won't help - idk then

[glass plinth]

and for some reason cl_showhud doesn't register as a command, but thats fine because I think the hud is essential to the Map Sweepers gamemode

i've never seen it look this bad LMAO

its like the camera is fixed in one position when i'm not in a vehicle/not looking up

[turbid barn]

my bad

cl_drawhud 0

i still can't remember this dvar lol

[steel lark]

my game never crashes but now it does very frequently since i've update my gmod install😭

[subtle bison]

ye newest x64 is very unstable and rubat is on vacation

x32 is recommended atm

[weak ermine]

wht

dammit

[wintry hornet]

im so impressed how lighting renders in rtx gmod gosh im fan girling

[glass plinth]

🥀 i feel you man

https://tenor.com/view/first-time-meme-first-time-the-ballad-of-buster-scruggs-gif-24656975

[winter radish]

@subtle bison why is the camera item broken like this?

[subtle bison]

i haven't looked into the actual swep but i think it uses some unique method of taking screenshots. It shouldn't be too hard to fix ngl

[glass plinth]

if it helps in anyway, the image disappears when I use the radial menu

[keen rivet]

damn i havent had any issues

CR could I kindly request your help in getting the linux version of the c# launcher working 🥺

[subtle bison]

so my rust one can be killed? /s

lmao

[keen rivet]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

idk

how good is the ui framework

i'm thinking about the mod browser

[subtle bison]

which ui framework, yours or egui?

[keen rivet]

egui

like is making that easy in yours?

its pretty darn easy in mine

[subtle bison]

its easy for the AI, but absolutely not for me

[keen rivet]

lol i mean fair

idk personally i don't want to be gated out of working on the launcher :(

[subtle bison]

yeah im not trying to do that, i was joking with the first comment

but i do like my rust launcher so idk how we're gonna settle on the launcher thing lol

i dont mind helping you on yours at all

[keen rivet]

merge them into the best launcher

[subtle bison]

if i had to "sunset" the rust launcher, i would like to carry over the UI, i think it looks pretty clean

[willow fog]

Stalemate resolution button

[keen rivet]

I sorta carried over some of what i liked about it

i want to do that setup screen too

[subtle bison]

yea my goal for mine was to remove ambiguity

[keen rivet]

but also i took my own creative liberties

like the progress up here with the most recent logging shown

[subtle bison]

is it hidden when no operations are running?

[keen rivet]

no it just says that

[subtle bison]

i meant the progress bar

[keen rivet]

no, but i can probably hide it

i dont mind it visible tbh

[subtle bison]

im fine with that too, i personally kept mine hidden but thats a small nitpick lol

[keen rivet]

the contents of the tabs are basically identical to the winforms version

[subtle bison]

we should probably clean it up a bit, or at least hide stuff behind a disclaimer

[keen rivet]

yep

i feel bad for basically pushing for the killing of your rust launcher but idk i want to work on it too lol

[subtle bison]

i think we're both at a standstill since we're pretty much matched on features lmao

only one way to go now

we'll make yours the primary

[keen rivet]

how do you find the library folder automatically? i'm thinking like

        var potentialPaths = new[]
        {
            Path.Combine(homePath, ".local", "share", "Steam"),
            Path.Combine(homePath, ".steam", "steam"),
            Path.Combine(homePath, ".var", "app", "com.valvesoftware.Steam", "data", "Steam") // flatpak
        };

        return potentialPaths.FirstOrDefault(Directory.Exists);

[subtle bison]

i still want to work on mine, but as a personal project

[keen rivet]

thats totally fair

[subtle bison]

rust has a handy crate called https://crates.io/crates/steamlocate that finds the steam folder on both platforms ☺️

iirc i have a non-steamlocate method that looks like yours

[keen rivet]

i just slapped that method in but no idea if itll work

i don't have a linux machine to test on is my issue

[subtle bison]

you can make a vm if you want, but i can do the linux work if you're okay with it. I got a few systems with different distros so I can also carry out the testing

[keen rivet]

that would be epic, i don't have the storage for a vm lmao

[subtle bison]

dead

[keen rivet]

also virtualisation on windows is a nightmare

[subtle bison]

just use vmware workstation, its free now

[keen rivet]

i wouldn't actually be able to test the installs on linux because no gpu in the vm

[subtle bison]

ye i assumed that, but getting the linux stuff working is a one-time thing so launching the game on the vm isnt a big issue, to me at least

[keen rivet]

i was gonna swap to linux as a host with my main being windows as a guest because of this, but never got around to commiting to doing that

[subtle bison]

if you dont wanna fight recent kernel AC stuff, i wouldnt do VFIO, unless you dont care about that stuff

but its definitely a fun journey

[keen rivet]

i have a linux mate that says if you setup a vm just right, you can avoid all of that

[subtle bison]

yeah i've done it as well

for some reason vrchat has a really solid guide on how to workaround 99% of it lmao

guess a lot of linux players

[keen rivet]

lmao

i'll look at that probably then if i ever do want to do that

[subtle bison]

https://docs.vrchat.com/docs/using-vrchat-in-a-virtual-machine

found it

crazy

[keen rivet]

https://github.com/Xenthio/RTXLauncher/actions/runs/17168079265/artifacts/3832733002

here i guess you can try the auto path detection now lmao

[subtle bison]

:3

worky

[keen rivet]

hooray!

i suppose I should introduce you to the new project structure, too.

core is where any non UI specific stuff lives, its like basically the functionality of the launcher

[subtle bison]

avalonia being the GUI?

[keen rivet]

this means the winforms project is stupid simple

[subtle bison]

its just like the rust launcher structure

[keen rivet]

yep thats the avalonia gui

[keen rivet]

oh lmao

[subtle bison]

why didnt you tell me the fluent design is so sexy 🤤

[keen rivet]

i disliked it actually lool

[subtle bison]

color scheme or actual design?

[keen rivet]

both?

[subtle bison]

lol

[keen rivet]

colour scheme mainly

too contrasty

its meant to look like the windows 11 fluent design guidelines, but its missing the crucial thing that is the slightly transparent window backdrop, so everything is stupid high contrast

[subtle bison]

ill have to look at the avalonia docs to see what else it supports

[keen rivet]

those are default two themes

but many more exist

https://github.com/BAndysc/Classic.Avalonia

here's a funny one i found

[subtle bison]

might as well include xp

[keen rivet]

this theme can look pretty legit

i mean i think my 9x theme for s&box ui is better but thats still good

https://github.com/Splitwirez/avalonia-aero-theme

[subtle bison]

ok no this is REQUIRED

🤤

[keen rivet]

lmao

i want to make the vgui theme

i think that would be funny

[subtle bison]

make it do the hl2 menu sounds too

[keen rivet]

lmao vgui doesnt have sounds but i guess i can

[steel lark]

no sounds pls 💀

[subtle bison]

lol

[subtle bison]

isnt vgui in steam the same as something in like hl2 or hl1?

[keen rivet]

thats vgui2

vgui1 is in half life 1, used for ingame stuff like the team picker in cs and tf and stuff, but in steam version of hl1 it also includes vgui2 for the main menu, replacing the win32 based WON menu

[steel lark]

xash3d's menu 😂

[keen rivet]

ive got prior experience in making a vgui theme for something, so i reckon I can cook hard for this

[subtle bison]

im messing with some hardware stuff atm, but ill get into the linux stuff sometime tonight or tomorrow btw

[subtle bison]

bruh

[subtle bison]

bro said we need source 2 running on goldsrc

[subtle bison]

whats goin on with the font in the 2nd screenshot

[keen rivet]

s&box doesn't load the right font, i type arial and it uses arial narrow for some reason

[subtle bison]

so did you just make an entire gui lib

[keen rivet]

yeah

it even has a ui designer lol

[subtle bison]

wtf

[keen rivet]

and also a test scene that is a stupid accurate recreation of windows 9x

including an x86 emulator that can run real windows exes with a reimplementation of windows

[subtle bison]

the fucking xenthio start menu lmfao

peak

[keen rivet]

that was a project that got wayyyy too out of hand lmao
https://github.com/Xenthio/xgui-3_test

[hushed trail]

Looks like it almost works on the steam deck, it shows as gmod_unknown for me

Let me try switching back to x86

[keen rivet]

is it the linux version of gmod?

that might show up as unknown

[hushed trail]

Oh I think it is

I don’t want that do I

[keen rivet]

nope

[hushed trail]

Even on the x64 branch it’s still Linux

How do I avoid downloading the Linux version

[keen rivet]

uhhh

idk

i think theres an option

its like use compatibility tool

and you can select proton

[subtle bison]

that is probably why my launcher didnt work lol

[hushed trail]

Ah I had no idea it downloaded different binaries for the game. Thought I had it already active. That’ll probably fix it

[keen rivet]

lmao

[brittle token]

i think i accidentally summoned some kind of demon while playing around with an ai

[weak ermine]

imagine hl2 alone with hl2rtx assets

alone and realistic

[compact blaze]

Have u tried contacting the gmod team recently about your rtx remix advances

[compact blaze]

Ah flashbacks https://youtu.be/n6QWTAqD9II

[compact blaze]

Dude this og gui is awesome I love it

[subtle bison]

its just rubat working on it

[compact blaze]

do u think rubat knows about gmod remix

[subtle bison]

probably

but i have reasons to think it's not something he'd provide support for

[compact blaze]

I do wonder what’s stopping rubat other than time and effort from creating a new branch of gmod that’s made on a heavily updated newer branch of the source engine, I remember hearing they don’t wanna do anything like that as that might break older mod support or smth

[wispy crest]

time and effort are 9 times out of 10 the main reason something is not done

the other 1 times its just not possible

[dense crow]

YAYAYYYAYAY YIP YIP YEAHGG

[wispy crest]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3552973123

this is super interesting

but the description says "-Infinity Ward for most of the models base clothing and gear"

[dense crow]

sssss

Sorry for spam

[brittle token]

i'll never understand how some people battle tooth and nails against the hammer editor to make a map and then proceed to forget to make the icon

[willow fog]

Kek

[brittle token]

kinda wish there was an addon that makes the icon

even a screencap of the spawnroom's view would help

that might take a bit of a while, and not even work under normal addon's rules, but damn, it'd be a significant upgrade

[subtle bison]

its funny because iirc you just need a .png named as the map

[brittle token]

yeah, i think so, only did it once tho, but it was quite easy

[subtle bison]

its infuriating the workshop page has loads of screenshots, but it has a blank thumbnail ingame 😭

[brittle token]

not sure how an addon would go about doing it tho

[subtle bison]

you would pack the addon with it

so the .bsp and .png would be next to each other

[brittle token]

hope more map makers do that, it's instantly a better map if i can get in it without having to read the name

[subtle bison]

this is how gmod rtx does it

thought it had to go to the materials

smart gmod

gmod map makers be lackin

[brittle token]

they a different breed, i wouldn't touch the hammer editor again not even with a stick

[subtle bison]

hammmer++ is a breath of fresh air

[brittle token]

def fixes a lot of the jank (and adds some cool stuff too)

i think it even had a way to see the game rendered in-editor

[subtle bison]

vrad realtime no way /s

[brittle token]

what if hammer, but cycles

[subtle bison]

yes

[brittle token]

hamcles++

[winter radish]

Would literally just be real time RayTracing 😭

Source 2 VRAD even requires a hardware RayTracing capable GPU now

[proven merlin]

Tried to install Gmod RTX and come to this problem any solutions?

[weak ermine]

read

uhh

letters

lol

[proven merlin]

Yeah I know, my drivers are up to date but it doesn’t fix the problem

[weak ermine]

huh

run as administrator, no?

[proven merlin]

So the problem is that Gmod isn’t porting correctly

[weak ermine]

what the fuck

u cant fucking read word in error window

[turbid barn]

means he probably didn't ported them directly from bf4

replaced some assets with high quality ones from cod

[proven merlin]

After I got rid of that problem it made another one

The reason why it failed it’s because my drivers were outdated

[weak ermine]

reinstall normal gmod

[weak ermine]

dumbest shit what i ever heard lol

[weak ermine]

or verify integrity of gaym files

[wispy crest]

yes after carefully inspecting the model and compared it to the on in bf4, they are slightly different

[subtle bison]

definitely not that. Re-read the install instructions.
It has to be ran as administrator and cannot be in a place like program files or a onedrive managed folder

[brittle token]

kinda sad that it does, there are probably a ton of talented mappers that dont have access to an rt gpu

would be preferable if it was like cycles, recommended to be used with the gpu, but in a last resort, you can just use cpu rendering

[subtle bison]

i guess the good news is that RT capable gpus are becoming more common each year

even intel iGPUs

[keen rivet]

hla map baking with cpu vrad was just a pain lmao

dude 8 hour compiles

[brittle token]

damn

[keen rivet]

actually nuts

[subtle bison]

can we make the launcher refuse to run if the user does either of these two things?
#1116089843479498782 message

[keen rivet]

It can be place in program files, like steamapps works fine, and for launching you dont need the admin perms, so its just annoying asking for that

and install doesn't even require admin perms for some people, like me

so its kinda odd

[subtle bison]

still introduces complexity

i'd rather entirely remove user error from the launcher

makes support less of a nightmare

[keen rivet]

thats why this error exists I guess, I would want to make this actually work and help properly though

[weak ermine]

imagine being "RTX ON" button

u forgotten

useless

and do nothing

💔

[subtle bison]

ye thats gotta go too

[keen rivet]

yeah agree

[subtle bison]

getting display resolution detection to work on wayland and xorg was a pain for the rust launcher, i just added a fuck ton of common resolutions

no complaints so far 🤓

current launcher does this too

[keen rivet]

I just realised I forgot to add back all the other resolution options lmao

does the vgui theme look correct on linux? i feel like font might render differently

[subtle bison]

ill try latest action rq

💔

[keen rivet]

it might still be building

yeah

[keen rivet]

build done

[subtle bison]

maybe turn on font smoothing for linux lol

❔

[weak ermine]

?

[keen rivet]

would be lore accurate to linux vgui2 anyways lmao

[keen rivet]

lmao i saw this and idk

wait you're highdpi

[subtle bison]

yea

[keen rivet]

what does it look like at normal scale dpi

[subtle bison]

😿

[keen rivet]

a

oh fuck that checkbox is a windows font lemao

wait linux doesnt come with webdings?

even macOS does

[subtle bison]

prob, but i imagine that depends on the distro

or even what kind of webdings font it uses

fluent looked fine

[keen rivet]

yeah im using webdings though because thats the correct checkbox i need

easy fix incoming

[winter radish]

Don’t matter much if Remix is only optimized for NVIDIA ones

The most common RT GPUs like RDNA 2 still can’t run

Turing and Ampere seem to be the most common NVIDIA GPUs

And then Intel ARC, I don’t even see them on the Steam charts

[subtle bison]

talking about source 2 vrad specifically

[winter radish]

Ah

I mean, since it’s Vulkan
You can use RADV on a bunch of older GPUs then for VRAD

[subtle bison]

guh whats different

[keen rivet]

the number boxes

[burnt agate]

ModDB doesn't have a public API, you would need to scrape the HTML pages to automate it

[keen rivet]

Would you or your host send the firing squad to my house for scraping it? lol.

[keen rivet]

okay! thats like atleast everything on the front page done!

I have no idea how well that custom titlebar stuff is gonna work on linux.

[burnt agate]

as long as the scrape is very light requests, and limited to only the required pages it is permitted

[keen rivet]

hell yeah

They grow up so fast

[cerulean moat]

Nah bro its pc-relatable thing, of course if you have slow as f pc its gonna be slow, btw there is a preset for 10 g version if you experiencing problems with vram (just a small tip)

[subtle bison]

yea

[weak ermine]

mind-blowing

[subtle bison]

just wait to see what i can do with gmod rtx when i enter middle school

[weak ermine]

gmod native rtx

without any engine staff

[winter radish]

could be possible with the new shaders stuff

[weak ermine]

i don't think so

[subtle bison]

yea if we could move to the shader backend of source i would be so fucking happy

could remove engine patches entirely

[weak ermine]

maybe ssrtgi yes

but full ray tracing

[subtle bison]

i think he means the remix shader fixes

[weak ermine]

i think he means new gmod shaders

[subtle bison]

nah

gmod shaders wont help us at all

[subtle bison]

its marked as archive bro

[winter radish]

Hasn’t been updated in 4 years but it has a pathtracer

[subtle bison]

i should probably take a look at what engine hooks it uses 👁️

[winter radish]

We had Gmod RTX before Gmod RTX

[subtle bison]

this could get us out of fixed function hell

[winter radish]

Since its DXR, it could also support FSR 4, lmao

[weak ermine]

ez win

we had gmod rtx before gmod pt

[winter radish]

Imagine we had the option between DXR and Vulkan for Gmod RTX

[weak ermine]

stop stealing ideas from my head

[winter radish]

@subtle bison seems all his things are open sourced like the binary module https://github.com/Derpius/gmod-binary-tracer

[winter radish]

CR could finally have FSR 4

I wonder if the Remix imgui could be reused since it seems to also be imgui

[weak ermine]

sick

[subtle bison]

i am not implementing an entirely different render framework, i just want the methods and engine hooks it uses to pass mesh data

[winter radish]

Wait, so does this mean we technically have a DXR pathtracer for Source?

[weak ermine]

thats what gmod without updated graphics do to people

[subtle bison]

remix is a much more robust platform to do this

[turbid barn]

i wish we'd ever have cool realistic re-animation addon on xdr base

[hasty sonnet]

thats a pain in the ass to get working

this is my literal reaction

[winter radish]

@subtle bison was it Windows or Linux that RayReconstruction worked on RDNA 4?

[subtle bison]

it was a bug with optiscaler with spoofing nvgnx extensions

it never actually worked since the RR model relies on cuda iirc

so it just broke the denoiser when turning it on

It did that on both platforms

[runic gale]

I have 16GB VRAM

[keen rivet]

what distro/setup you running?

i only have these 2 downloaded on hand right now lmao

10 minutes of black screen

forgor to disable hyper v whoops

[subtle bison]

ubuntu/kde wayland on my laptop
arch/kde wayland on my desktop
bazzite/kde wayland on my bc250

this is my personal opinion but we should be targeting wayland only

x11 is pretty dead

[weak ermine]

damn

lunix user

[subtle bison]

i use windows just as much 👅

[keen rivet]

ok now i got a distro running that actually wants to behave, i can try and see if i can fix this

[keen rivet]

guess ill just have to make it not use custom controls on linux 😔

i made it load the correct vgui font for the checkboxes and updown arrows from gmod if gmod is installed, and fall back to the ones you see there if it isn't (which is dumb if its not because gmod rtx installer lol)

[subtle bison]

what font is gnome using to make the launcher look like ass

i feel like my screenshot looked a lot better lol

[weak ermine]

BigPileOfShit font

[keen rivet]

idk

[keen rivet]

don't know what else to do with the launcher, lol.

does anyone have any suggestions or frustrations with gmod rtx?

DXR implementation /jk

[subtle bison]

fixed function eye rendering

can we tell this guy?

[subtle bison]

yea

[weak ermine]

damn new bloom shader

[brittle token]

we need rubat cooperationnn. im willing to sacrifice my first newborn on a blood ritual to garry for it

[weak ermine]

[winter radish]

I do think Gmod shaders will be more popular than Remix

[subtle bison]

for sure

[weak ermine]

lol of course

[subtle bison]

1000% easier to run and access

[turbid barn]

ofc yes

because remix isn't in workshop and nobody makes video about it lol

i think youtube is the best way to make ts more popular

[subtle bison]

please do not make a video about it ☺️

[brittle token]

for two reasons: easier to run
and the fact that gmod rtx seems to be dark knowledge only accessible to those who know about this thread

[keen rivet]

i have like 5 videos about it

[winter radish]

I wanted to make a video on it
Comparing the differences between DX9 Gmod and Gmod RTX

[keen rivet]

80k views each

[turbid barn]

since i've found this mod because of xenthios pbr videos

[keen rivet]

lmao

[subtle bison]

so maybe remix just doesn't catch on

[turbid barn]

remix is actually fire

[subtle bison]

im surprised richter overtime or someone equivalent hasnt covered it

[keen rivet]

probably not many people come to the server

[weak ermine]

we need someone like necros or whatever his nickname is to make tutorial

[turbid barn]

any remix game runs better than cyberpunk with path tracing but worse than ray tracing psycho

[brittle token]

to be honest, what kind of normal person uses this button?

[turbid barn]

and consumes way less vram

[subtle bison]

me

[winter radish]

I actually agree with this, I can run Gmod RTX up to Native 1080p at 40fps with DLAA

pls include rdna4

[brittle token]

what if rtx did more rt and less x

[winter radish]

I don’t have RDNA 4

[keen rivet]

lots of amd users for a nvidia disocrd...

[subtle bison]

then its not representative of all amd cards 🤓

[turbid barn]

take your rtx 580 and run gmod with ray tracing emulation

[keen rivet]

traitors

[winter radish]

I do want to eventually pick up a RX 9060 XT and a RX 6600 XT

[brittle token]

screw it, real time radiosity

[subtle bison]

me when i dont want to buy a gpu 2x expensive for 1.2x performance improvement

[winter radish]

I mean if I show a RX 7600 running it, it represents the lower end and shows last gen keeps up

[keen rivet]

its like 5x with raytracing though

[winter radish]

RDNA 4 is next gen and I would hope people assume it runs better with its promotion of better RT

[subtle bison]

thats only including frame gen right? a 5050 is barely faster than a 2080

in PT specifically

[turbid barn]

https://tenor.com/view/tf2engineer-imposter-it-could-be-you-meme-tf2spy-gif-23428001

i can't see AMD gpu users here

[subtle bison]

even the one with the amd gpu in their name?

[keen rivet]

whats the perf difference in raytracing between amd and nvidia then

[subtle bison]

depends on the hardware, rdna4 is a massive boost compared to previous generations. My RX 9070 is equivalent to a RTX 5070 Ti in Remix

[winter radish]

NVIDIA will always be ahead, especially with features like SER, OMM, NRC, RayReconstruction, etc

[keen rivet]

5070 ti.....

[lapis delta]

ahem... НУ И ГДЕ ЭТА ВАША БЕДНОСТЬ? (so where is this poverty of yours?)

[keen rivet]

oh yeah ray reconstruction my beloved

[winter radish]

Might need numbers, I saw HL2 RTX showing a RX 9070 XT getting 5060 Ti numbers

[turbid barn]

where is the poor*

[subtle bison]

obviously im missing RR but in raw performance im paying far less for a bigger performance gain

[turbid barn]

don't use yandex translator it sucks

[keen rivet]

ray reconstruction alone might be worth the 2x for how fucking good it looks

it fixes like all my issues with raytracing

[lapis delta]

fr?

[keen rivet]

i love playing dlaa ray reconstruction

looks so good

[turbid barn]

except reflections in remix

[winter radish]

Depends, I find RR can look smeary in some scenarios, especially at lower resolutions

[turbid barn]

they've broken with RR

[keen rivet]

oh i play at DLAA

[brittle token]

still cant believe they went through with calling a gpu "5050"

[winter radish]

Makes sense then, sadly not all RTX owners have that privilege

[turbid barn]

imagine 5030

[lapis delta]

gt 1030

[keen rivet]

rr looks good at balanced though

[turbid barn]

rt 5030

[lapis delta]

best ray tracing gpu

[keen rivet]

second hand 4090's for all

[brittle token]

New BUDGET GPU KING?

[turbid barn]

there is a single ray
and it can trace it.

[subtle bison]

ngl that was my 2nd choice, but the prices are so ass

[brittle token]

1660 be like

[turbid barn]

imagine 5050 have 4x frame gen
and 4090 is not

[keen rivet]

frame gen looks good i would be satisfied with it

[subtle bison]

except the 50 series is still plagued with driver bugs

[turbid barn]

I saw videos with ray tracing emulation on it but i have no idea how'd they've did it

[winter radish]

I don’t even use FG

[turbid barn]

ik mesa driver on linux has ray tracing emulation

[brittle token]

i dont understand i only have 1x frame gen

[turbid barn]

god bless linux

[brittle token]

it only does it once, per frame

[winter radish]

Because the drivers have official RT emulation for DXR 1.0 and some Vulkan

[brittle token]

30 fps -> 30 fps

[winter radish]

NVIDIA did it to promote the RTX series

[subtle bison]

crazy

[brittle token]

ikr

[subtle bison]

where is 0.5x frame gen

[winter radish]

GTX cards can emulate RT on Windows and Linux

[brittle token]

that's called dlss off

[keen rivet]

i wish there were two extra rendering modes in rtx remix

[turbid barn]

btw in optiscaler you can add amd fsr fg to any game that doesn't have fg at all
and
you can enable it (2x) and there is a button called something like "only generated frames"

so you've got 30 ai frames instead of real lol

[subtle bison]

guh

[brittle token]

i wonder what that looks like lol

[turbid barn]

it looks nice

[winter radish]

Give us DXR, NVIDIA

[keen rivet]

one is a raster render the style of source 2, where RTX is used for realtime lightmaps.
second is a raytracing renderer (not full pt) where its like quake 2 rtx raytracing
third is full pathtrace we have right now

[winter radish]

Isn’t Quake 2 RTX Pathtraced?

[subtle bison]

they're probably all possible but that would require significant refactors in remix

[turbid barn]

since it's uses motion vectors it looks nice
i've tested:
on 130 fps with no fg, 205 fps with fg,
turning on "only generated frames" it keeps like 102 fps
and they look nice
it's very very hard to find artifacts

unlike for example base of 30 fps

[keen rivet]

1st i would imagine getting 300 fps full res
2nd i imagine getting like 180 fps full res
3rd i get the current 70 fps full res

[keen rivet]

dont think so it runs way better than rtx remix at full res

[winter radish]

Well because the Pathtracing code is very simple, lmao
I’ve taken a look at it

Remix is far more complex and packs a lot more features that takes performance

[keen rivet]

oh then 2nd would be more like cyberpunk's raytracing mode

not fullly pathtraced

[winter radish]

Like RayTracing psycho

[keen rivet]

psycho doesnt look any different from high to me lol

[wispy crest]

people come into here asking how to make this mod work and they link your videos

saying "I followed this tutorial"

[keen rivet]

ok so i updated the 64 bit fixes on my install why is it crashma now

i didnt update gmod itself

[subtle bison]

is it the module itself? i couldn't reproduce anything there

[keen rivet]

if its what i think you mean you can fix it by turning this off

[turbid barn]

oh, didn't know, thank you!

but does it affect pbr materials?

i mean with RR they usually looks more sharper

[keen rivet]

i only notice a difference on perfectly reflective things

[turbid barn]

red

[keen rivet]
