Garry's Mod

[half viper]

im not an artist either lmao

id love to contribute to dxvk-remix but im not that much of a c++ programmer

never gonna use LLMs to write code for me

[polar anchor]

https://tenor.com/view/dexter-james-doakes-surprise-mf-can't-prove-it-gif-7408854170742055240

[half viper]

im probably gonna look into dxvk remix repo soon and try to figure out how to fix the tiling

[polar anchor]

I hella want to use llms to code for me. For random fixes and whatnot. Though never got the stuff to work in the end lol

[half viper]

https://iquilezles.org/articles/texturerepetition/

there is this article on texture repetition

[polar anchor]

S H I N Y

[keen rivet]

I'm away this weekend so I'm not gonna be able to finish up the pbr stuff on my own, I'll see how much I can do remotely

I think I've done all I wanted to do minus some cleanups though

[polar anchor]

The only thing that really needs a look over is the game acting funny after making some pbr (if im not the only one with this issue ofc). I dont think the vram leak issue is from it since I've been had this issue for a long time now

[willow fog]

Ok

Cod downloaded

Hopefully

I'm still in bed

But if it did, I can continue making my mod

[compact blaze]

i love this addon ❤️❤️❤️

[weak ermine]

holly fuck

can u check sas model?

[polar anchor]

uh. That is what I was playing as lol https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=838891458&searchtext=Sas+csgo

i said swat my bad g

meant sas

but lowkey swat sounds cooler

[weak ermine]

i mean like

send screenshot

of model

[polar anchor]

o

well

um

freecam broke again xD

so I can try to show you

[weak ermine]

u can just spawn model from spawnlist>addons>this addon

[polar anchor]

there is also an npc i believe

okay ill reboot the game lol

[weak ermine]

typical gmod🥀

[polar anchor]

i get random freezes

which I just close the game

and then delete the pbr since that seems to break my game

have to regen it every time

highest i ever saw it was 17GB

actually Ill make a profile with no custom guns in it

make it go faster

[polar anchor]

Third person looking a lil....... Messed up

[weak ermine]

ahhh terminal spec ops flashbang

oiled up sas

better than cs2

[polar anchor]

Im gonna have to ask you what you are planning to do with those oil bottles

[compact blaze]

i wonder how cs2 models translate

[weak ermine]

🤫

[polar anchor]

well if they werent known to be buggy in gmod rtx, id try them lol

[keen rivet]

Depends if they use the pbr data properly

[keen rivet]

And by properly I mean in a way we can recover it

Those pseudo pbr methods have recoverable data

[weak ermine]

isn't no one ported them to source at all?

no like uhh

i saw weapons

and

its all i saw

🥀

[polar anchor]

Dont know what it did exactly but something about it makes it look very good

[keen rivet]

You can hover over and do rtx_topbr_inspect to see what mode it's using

[polar anchor]

ah id have to do that later, game encountered a freeze when switching between models again

anyways surprised topbr does do something with this model lol. Since the default bodygroup for this model has cel shaded outline that breaks the renderer lol

[keen rivet]

It has phong that must mean

[polar anchor]

yeah

shiny

Wonder why my game freezes up on what seems to be random

[compact blaze]

people ported cs2 viewmodels and weapons to mwb

[keen rivet]

Can you attach a debugger

Do you have visual studio installed

[compact blaze]

why are her boobs so huge

[weak ermine]

💔

[polar anchor]

I might? It SHOULD be, but it has been acting up for the last few months 😭

[weak ermine]

take a guess

[polar anchor]

cause thats how I and and many others like it?

[compact blaze]

condition at birth?

[keen rivet]

Tumour growth

Very unfortunate

Few days to live

[compact blaze]

Unfortunate, hope she improves in health

[weak ermine]

okay i don't fucking know how to translate this so i just won't say anything

[keen rivet]

Huh

[polar anchor]

???

[weak ermine]

language barrier

brain barrier

[polar anchor]

ah a tumor

[compact blaze]

try translate “medical condition”

google translate be dumb

[polar anchor]

is there another debugger or do I gotta try to use VS?

[keen rivet]

Uhh idk

[polar anchor]

windows likes to act like i dont have it

but I KNOW I do

but search only nets me with the installer

[polar anchor]

which should I use?

[keen rivet]

2022

[polar anchor]

forgot about this, all that happens when launching is this

does it for both

i coulvde sworn there used to be some interface

when I had to compile the IW7-MOD client a year or two back

[polar anchor]

Um how long should it take to boot? IT is still on console only

[keen rivet]

You don't have actual visual studio installed that's just build tools

[polar anchor]

I never uninstalled it, where did go?

[turbid barn]

uh

that's not nice since (at least for me) water is flickering when water texture is on

doesn't matter dlss dlaa taau rr

[subtle bison]

yeah the rtx.conf is gonna have to be re-done for the remix logic update

[turbid barn]

What about water? Is it supposed to be that flickery when it's marked as «water texture» or it's only mine problem?

[willow fog]

Oh god damn

I was thinking about cchecking this map

[subtle bison]

the flickering is caused by RR

[turbid barn]

uh then it's noisy

neither good

[subtle bison]

shouldn't be, make sure you're using Transformers

[compact blaze]

@turbid barn https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3650043519

download this

[turbid barn]

even cooler

@compact blaze

[compact blaze]

its literally half life 3

[turbid barn]

i like this wooden flor

guys

you understand what

we now have

[lean hatch]

Fnaf

[zealous narwhal]

Crossbow scope can actually reflect surroundings now??

[turbid barn]

it did the same in normal gmod aswell

[turbid barn]

YES

[zealous narwhal]

Wasn't it cubemapped though?

[turbid barn]

yes

bear

[willow fog]

Okay. I'm going to attempt to convert all portal 2 textures

[lean hatch]

Good luck soldier

[compact blaze]

@willow fog can u compare a raw noise and RR denoised screenshot for fun

[willow fog]

Then paste them in portal 2

[compact blaze]

i wanna see how well it does

[willow fog]

no

[lean hatch]

[compact blaze]

what gpu u on?

[turbid barn]

4969

4060

[compact blaze]

u using transformer RR?

[turbid barn]

yes

[compact blaze]

hope they fix the issue with RR where everything under native kinda has a low bitrate blur to it u feel me?

kinda like im playing a 480p video on youtube

[turbid barn]

yes

the same with any reflections

even mirrored (white texture, 0% roughness 100% metalics) have broken reflections under RR

[weak ermine]

reflections are fucked with rr

fucking aidia

[turbid barn]

[subtle bison]

the duality of RR 🤓

[weak ermine]

oh stfu bro

still way better than having hyper ultra soft shadows

[willow fog]

gp2 downloaded. Time to get down and dirty.

[weak ermine]

with updating rate of turtle

[willow fog]

gmod froze

[zealous narwhal]

ToPBR on some L4D2 maps can look decent

Native 3440x1440 absolutely kills performance, I only enabled it for this screenshot

[willow fog]

not bad

[subtle bison]

is it me or all of the normals in that screenshot are like 10x strength?

[weak ermine]

god dammmn

what if

generate textures

and copypast them to l4d2 rtx mod

[wispy crest]

one again, that garmin foretrex is too bright

[weak ermine]

capability

[zealous narwhal]

Maybe, normals do look very pronounced

[wispy crest]

I know that's an old image tho

[winter radish]

Dem textures though

[weak ermine]

I'll do this when all cool stuff will be released

[willow fog]

ok.

[zealous narwhal]

Same but graphics have been set to Ultra and not High this time

[wispy crest]

I should do the cs2 models proper

if anyone has a link to working ones for gmod, I might do it

[weak ermine]

xyok

[wispy crest]

haven't worked on gmod rtx in a while

[weak ermine]

i can give u a cs2 orange

[wispy crest]

what

[weak ermine]

?

what what

cs2 orange model

[wispy crest]

why do you have that

[weak ermine]

bcz its exist in workshop

why not

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2954457748

[willow fog]

uhhhhhh

topbr not working with gp2?

@subtle bison

[compact blaze]

i wonder what causes the blockiness

[wispy crest]

i meant the playermodels

[weak ermine]

low resolution

[wispy crest]

i already did the weapons

thought I did mean to redo them

[compact blaze]

@zealous narwhal try run textures at the highest resolution

[weak ermine]

bro

highest resolution

literally 512x512

2007

[compact blaze]

shhhhhhhh

[weak ermine]

u want 8k ultra pbr textures in 2007 or what

[zealous narwhal]

Ok

I set texture detail to very high

[weak ermine]

insane

[zealous narwhal]

Looks the same to me

[weak ermine]

no shit changed

interesting why

[compact blaze]

i dont know if gmod changes the textures on the fly

[wispy crest]

is this l4d2?

[compact blaze]

its l4d2

[willow fog]

wha

[subtle bison]

gp2 doesnt make any difference to the textures

it should work regardless

[wispy crest]

forcing pbr on 512x512 textures isn't going to do anything

[willow fog]

There are only 123 textures in my folder

for the replacements

I have processed 3 maps

4 now

[subtle bison]

did you test the ones you did the other day?

portal 2 doesnt really use many cubemaps in comparison to older source games

[willow fog]

wtf

Okay wait

Remix issue

ah

What about the portals?

Camera gets messed up if I place one

[subtle bison]

no idea, gp2 is abandoned

also burrito that looks like the old remix runtime

[willow fog]

Did you push an update?

[subtle bison]

no but if you're testing the autopbr stuff, you need the async remix build that reloads textures correctly

me and xenthio sent it here a few times

[willow fog]

I must have missed it

[subtle bison]

#1116089843479498782 message

[lean hatch]

Whats gp2

Garrys portal 2?

[subtle bison]

its mean to be used with the continuous scanning so textures are instantly replaced when they are discovered #1116089843479498782 message

no stutter or anything

[subtle bison]

ye

[compact blaze]

old portal 2 compatability mod

sadly got left

[wispy crest]

cr did you ever fix eyes or was that a fruitless endevor?

[weak ermine]

the fuck are u talking about

[subtle bison]

wouldnt call that a fruitless endeavor, just something that is hard to fix

but its possible

[weak ermine]

u want to see absolutely flat textures?

[willow fog]

What about the skyboxes though

I bet they have materials that can be converted

[lean hatch]

So what exactly would you have to modify in the game itself for auto pbr

[subtle bison]

p2 is fucked in this regard

even in the official compat mod

[willow fog]

hm

[wispy crest]

oh yeah skyboxes

man i have been away from this project for far too long

[subtle bison]

glazed up portal gun

[willow fog]

Yeesh

[compact blaze]

https://tenor.com/view/up-is-not-jump-arousing-gif-15295658

[wispy crest]

i feel like the portal gun is far too reflective

[lean hatch]

Cuz unity rtx may benefit from it js saying

[subtle bison]

unity would be far easier

especially if the game already uses PBR and normals

i can just directly upload those textures

[cerulean moat]

can someone explain how to install topbr thingy, looks insane

[lean hatch]

Oh

[subtle bison]

#1116089843479498782 message

[cerulean moat]

what fork of gm do i need to use tho?

[subtle bison]

normal gmod rtx

[cerulean moat]

perf or default?

[cerulean moat]

ok

[wispy crest]

has anyone used skurtyyskirts' substance2remix plugin?

[subtle bison]

gmcl_RTXFixesBinary_win64.dll goes into garrysmod/lua/bin
remixbinary.zip replaces the remixbinary folder in garrysmod/addons folder
extract the contents of remix-for-autopbr.zip into bin/win64 and replace all files

[subtle bison]

guh wheatley has PBR

[wispy crest]

clearly not

[willow fog]

lol

[subtle bison]

hold on

#1116089843479498782 message

@willow fog are you using the binary module and addon from here:
#1116089843479498782 message

[willow fog]

Now he has

[compact blaze]

https://tenor.com/view/green-what-is-wrong-with-you-breaking-bad-saltreaver-gif-9468746290147426058

[subtle bison]

pls tell me ur still not using the process command manually

pls use the newer version 😭

[wispy crest]

still looks kinda flat lol

[willow fog]

Guh I'm downloading it

I hadn't updated sinec xenthio uploaded the first one

[subtle bison]

ye its MUCH better now

[willow fog]

Where does the thing go now?

Remix

runtime

[weak ermine]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3149710836&searchtext=shipment

can someone check

it

[subtle bison]

i overhauled the asset loading system to be asynchronous so any mod changes are loaded instantly

[willow fog]

where does it go

the rubnnrtime

[subtle bison]

i just sent the instructions 😭
#1116089843479498782 message

[willow fog]

ajh

[compact blaze]

@subtle bison what state does this mod need to be in for an official release

[subtle bison]

probably just per-material tuning?

the async stuff was the big hurdle ngl

[willow fog]

I'm just flying thrugh these p2 maps without using portals

[weak ermine]

are u home?

[subtle bison]

yeah but im still trying to get a dev setup for linux

[weak ermine]

so u cant send todo list

[subtle bison]

i mean the todo is gonna be the one thing

[willow fog]

we tley

fucking DIE

[stark ether]

Valid

[lean hatch]

K now give his eye an emissive mask and a cone light and youre good to go

[subtle bison]

auto legacy emissive already works for him

also the cone light works

with remix api light wrapper

[willow fog]

He should have them in p2. I'll show it once I've gotten most of the textures for aperture.

[wispy crest]

AAAAAARGH

[winter radish]

Valve’s highest resolution I’ve seen in source is 1024x1024 for textures that had multiple objects

[subtle bison]

naw look at the lost coast fisherman

dude is HI RES

iirc 2048x2048

[winter radish]

https://tenor.com/view/gla-dos-suk-gif-26015574

[winter radish]

Brave for Valve :o

[willow fog]

My favorite easter egg in all of portal. Also one of my favorite music in games in general. I was listening to this in the background during the toolkit early access meeting with nv guys back in 2023

[winter radish]

I wonder what resolution GLaDOS is

[willow fog]

#1116089843479498782 message

[winter radish]

@subtle bison time to remove Uncle’s favorite Easter egg from P2 RTX

[willow fog]

AAAARGH

[winter radish]

This reminds me that we have a bunch of unmerged assets

[lean hatch]

I once tried to make an 8 bit version of this when I made 8 bit music

It had a good start then it fell off

[willow fog]

merge em before I install the gmod autopbr assets

[weak ermine]

aand?

[willow fog]

https://youtu.be/Ez1-F5-qL8w

[weak ermine]

these objects uses like 1/50 of that texture

so idk why u said that

[winter radish]

Because I’m bored

[weak ermine]

or dumb

That's NOT turret wife seranade

[lean hatch]

Yeah

Its carra Mia addio

I never did finish it

[willow fog]

26 subscribers

[lean hatch]

Yeah

[willow fog]

Still collecting assets. I'll get them all up to old aperture

[lean hatch]

I quit 8 bit music like 2 years ago

[willow fog]

25 before I got my hands on the link

[winter radish]

@subtle bison once he’s done, raid his hard drive for them

[lean hatch]

Ty lmao, rate the song overall fr

[willow fog]

7/10

Not that bad

[lean hatch]

Can I talk to you abt this (#offtopic ) cuz theres a couple songs you should listen to

[weak ermine]

oh no

[willow fog]

Sure. Or just put the list here

[lean hatch]

Well this is gmod

But sure

[weak ermine]

self-advertising

[lean hatch]

Thats why I wanted to off topic

[weak ermine]

mods ban them

[subtle bison]

@winter radish so wine-msvc is not enough for the USD schema BS that remix uses, so uhh yeah

[weak ermine]

they have opinions

[subtle bison]

the rest of remix did compile though, just not usable

[winter radish]

https://tenor.com/view/the-northman-northman-reasonsimbroke-willem-dafoe-focus-features-gif-24200263

[subtle bison]

im just gonna use it as a remote compiler

thats literally it lmao

hence why its a docker container

[winter radish]

Me who uses Windows daily despite hating it:

[subtle bison]

i would be fine with windows if the AMD drivers were good 🙂

but after waiting for a year, it aint gonna happen

[lean hatch]

Me who

Duel boots

Or did dual boot

[subtle bison]

ye but dual boot isnt fun when you spend a lot of your time developing for remix

which means im using windows 99% of the time anyway

[subtle bison]

💪

[winter radish]

@subtle bison one thing that pisses me off about Remix, the longer I wait to fix things like FSR or ReStir, the more issues that might pop up when trying to merge into all those new commits

[subtle bison]

wdym

[winter radish]

Yesterday, I made a branch, and 40 minutes later there was already 6 commits

[subtle bison]

you mean from upstream?

[winter radish]

Yeah, and if they keep changing so much, I can imagine merge conflicts will arise eventually

[subtle bison]

i wouldnt dwell on it too much unless you're going to PR it

you can pull and rebase your commits based on the latest changes as well

[winter radish]

https://tenor.com/view/batman-thinking-gif-9694222

[winter radish]

That’s the plan for things like FSR and ReStir FG

And FSR would be almost ready if it wasn’t for the stupid device queues

[willow fog]

Ayy his light works

[subtle bison]

bro turn on the automatic legacy emissive pls

[willow fog]

COMPLETELY YOUR FAULT

I thought it was on

Also chell's potato

Oh cool

[winter radish]

The real Portal 2 with RTX was the friends we made a long the way

portal 2 chapter 5 subtitle

mmm

Fully automatic

[lean hatch]

My fucking earns

[willow fog]

my fucking earns as well

[lean hatch]

Good correction

[willow fog]

This is the whole map. Wow, valve

[weak ermine]

my beautiful ears

😭

[willow fog]

Wow. This scene looks really good.

OKay I am in old aperture now.

These textures better work in portal 2 or else I'm brutally murdering cr

[winter radish]

I just realized we can now use Remix logic to control the lights

[willow fog]

WHERE THE FUCK IS CR?????

@subtle bison

[weak ermine]

oh dyam

hyper realistic gloves

and goofy ahh cartoony skin

😭🙏

[lean hatch]

holy shit...

[stark ether]

Would this be easy to implement in the P2 Comp mod?

[weak ermine]

mmm

metal

😋

[willow fog]

He's getting fucking murdered

Violently

Right before before I painfully castrate him

That's right

[lean hatch]

alright im hoping

[compact blaze]

whats causing the hands to glow like that?

[turbid barn]

anime pm which doesn't work properly with remix

it's black by default

deep black

[weak ermine]

n...

[turbid barn]

so i've marked it as "world space ui"

[compact blaze]

how did u get it working?

[turbid barn]

but it's glowing, unfortenatly

[lean hatch]

loading up gmod to install this topbr

[weak ermine]

did u tried legacy emissives?

[turbid barn]

also

it's alternative fix

[weak ermine]

set as legacy emissive with 0.1 strength

[turbid barn]

it would be darker than supposed

[weak ermine]

🥀

[turbid barn]

like it got sunburned

ohhhhhhhh im mad

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

@subtle bison show yourself coward

[weak ermine]

shhh

[compact blaze]

whats wrong

[weak ermine]

chill man

[willow fog]

Someone is getting killed today

[weak ermine]

its just a video game

[willow fog]

That I spent

2.5 hours on

[compact blaze]

dude what happened

[weak ermine]

cr just shoot him without any words he's gonna eat u alive🙏😭

[willow fog]

That's 2.5 hours closer to the time I'm buried

[compact blaze]

also it'd be nice if gpu's had a mode for heating

so it'd double as a gaming card and a space heater

getting all the cores to max heat right before instant meltdown

[willow fog]

Cr said that gmod and portal 2 had the same hashes. I spent all that time generating ToPBR materials. Pasted them in portal and found out different hashes.

@weak ermine

[weak ermine]

its normal

[sonic apex]

albedo?

[weak ermine]

im about fps

map is ultra unoptimised

fuck why map dev doesn't port normals for dirt

so fucking bad

[turbid barn]

r_3dsky 1 to go boom

[weak ermine]

💔

[willow fog]

I an barely run it without the sky

Also abandoned mall looks pretty good

[weak ermine]

daym

interesting how dods maps looks like

[winter radish]

@keen rivet did give us permission to port his ToPBR tool, though I have no idea where the source code would be, lol

[willow fog]

I was gonna port it regardless of permission

But idk where the SC is either

lmao

[subtle bison]

can you quit your fucking bitching and try rtx.useObsoleteHashOnTextureUpload = True in p2

[willow fog]

I'm gonna now

[subtle bison]

i think xoxor4d updated his p2rtx runtime and i think it changed the texture hashes

[willow fog]

loading

[subtle bison]

you probably need to put that setting in dxvk.conf as well as the rtx.conf might reject it

[willow fog]

9B91ED578420AC35

Alright but it breaks the rest of portal 2

[subtle bison]

so it works?

[willow fog]

.

[subtle bison]

i dunno what im looking at

[willow fog]

Same hash

one from gmod

This ss from p2 with obsolete hashes

[subtle bison]

ok so yes that was the issue then

[willow fog]

No

The game is still unplayable

[subtle bison]

sure but your replaced materials are there so

[willow fog]

They are not

[subtle bison]

huh

[willow fog]

Let me test a different map

bts 6

lights are all gone. Can't see a thing

[subtle bison]

yeah you'll have to re-add those yourself

or find the hash of the map anchor and change it in the relevant usda

[willow fog]

Enhancements did in fact not work

uhhhhh

9B91ED578420AC35

what

the fuck

Where did it go?

fuck

wait

4BF084594769D522
Okay this is the exact hash here in gmod

4BF084594769D522 And the hash is same in portal 2 as well

But the replacement texture doesn't exist??

?

What?

uhm

@subtle bison we have a problem

I...

Don't understand

[subtle bison]

when you pasted the mod in p2, do the relative paths match?

it seems like remix isnt finding the mod or something

[willow fog]

No, the texture hash

It's not physiccally present in the folder

[subtle bison]

oh i get it now

[willow fog]

You can clearly see that texture 4bf has a replacement

But the textures aren't in the folder

[subtle bison]

its one of those materials that use two blended textures, so the one you selected in remix isnt the actual texture

did you copy the entire folder?

[willow fog]

yes

[subtle bison]

weird, should work

is everything like that?

[willow fog]

Not a single replacement has shown up

[subtle bison]

can you open the materials.usda and show the block with that hash?

[willow fog]

Not present

4bf.. is not in the material usda

[subtle bison]

ok so yeah its a blended texture

and its not easy to find the real hash either

[willow fog]

Uhm Could be a priority thing

In the usda

[subtle bison]

but then we would've seen at least some kind of replacement

did you remove the p2rtx base mod

[willow fog]

gmod to pbr

portal 2

Let me try removing

ohhhhh

there we go

I think

Wait

Okay so the portal gun and a fey unblended textures show up

No, this should be unblended, right?

[zealous narwhal]

I don't remember this material being this wet and reflective

[turbid barn]

because original texture have envmap in it, so it was converted to roughness 50% i guess

i like oily tf2 characters

cr and xenthio please keep it

[polar anchor]

then how do I install the full tools?

[subtle bison]

@winter radish

took a bit but its just a script to run a remote ps session to the vm to compile remix. I created a smb share to mount my projects folder into my linux user's home directory

its pretty seamless now as i dont need a GUI for windows at all

[sonic apex]

is gmod in linear?

[sonic apex]

with a physical skybox that would look sick

[winter radish]

https://tenor.com/view/all-that-for-a-drop-of-blood-gif-20148205

[sonic apex]

thunar??
based

[subtle bison]

yes thunar is absolute peak

along with xfce4-panel (even if its used on things other than xfce 🤓 )

[subtle bison]

❔

[sonic apex]

is the game's rendering done in linear space or gamma space?

[subtle bison]

for vanilla?

[sonic apex]

yeah

[subtle bison]

dunno

[sonic apex]

was just curious because if the original game is in gamma space there might be a better curve to linearize the legacy assets with

[subtle bison]

@keen rivet https://tenor.com/view/curious-very-curious-magnifying-glass-looking-peeking-gif-3027926178787907205

[sonic apex]

the skyrim community shaders team found that skyrim's (gamma space game) assets look best with pow 1.3 iirc instead of srgb or 2.2

not sure how they went about figuring that out though lol

[keen rivet]

The assets are as is in the game

Any gamma stuff happens in post

so applying it to the assets I don't think would make sense

[willow fog]

Uhm... not necessarily

Data assets like specular and normals are read as linear

[sonic apex]

specular / normals get stored in linear and are read as linear but diffuse / albedo should be stored in gamma and linearized on read no?

[willow fog]

Correct

[sonic apex]

and remix linearizes legacy assets with srgb, no?

[willow fog]

Not sure

[steel lark]

hmm can anyone pin the autopbr stuff i can't find it properly tbh

lazy ah

[cerulean moat]

#1116089843479498782 message

[willow fog]

Not released officially so no pin

[cerulean moat]

gmcl_RTXFixesBinary_win64.dll goes into garrysmod/lua/bin
remixbinary.zip replaces the remixbinary folder in garrysmod/addons folder
extract the contents of remix-for-autopbr.zip into bin/win64 and replace all files

[steel lark]

are those the most updated versions?

[cerulean moat]

I think so

[steel lark]

i saw another version i think

here

no no that's older nvm

[steel lark]

thank you

[steel lark]

this will be garry's mod in 2008

[subtle bison]

i am finally converted, dev setup and all 😭

lets see how long i can go without my windows partition now

[winter radish]

Someone should convert the Half-Life 2 assets to PBR

Then we got HL2 RTX

[willow fog]

Not gonna. I was violently disappointed with portal 2

It could have looked SO good.

[lean hatch]

Why not js like

Use the toolkit and add the pbr

[willow fog]

To every single texture manually?

No thank you

That's defeats the purpose of autopbr

[lean hatch]

Shrug

[keen rivet]

With what

AutoPBR?

[subtle bison]

tl;dr the assets didnt really work

even when the hashes matched

[willow fog]

Yeah

[subtle bison]

portal 2 is doing something weird

[keen rivet]

Ah

[subtle bison]

its weird because like a year ago, i was making PBR assets for p2rtx in gmod before the official compat came out and we were able to move them to p2rtx when it came out

uhh i dont think the combine elite playermodel is supposed to have a metal ball for an eye

[lean hatch]

Yes they are, anyone who's says its red is gaslight

[subtle bison]

@winter radish 😋

idk if its in the build i pushed earlier here but it should work for all upscalers

definitely makes xess sharper

[winter radish]

I hear it's better than NIS even when paired with DLSS

Did you merge just the FSR upscaler portion or something?

[subtle bison]

no i did it myself because i couldnt remember what you added to yours lol

i figured it wasnt too hard to add since its a simple shader

[winter radish]

Nice, so it's just RCAS?

[subtle bison]

yeah

its very clean

no oversharpening artifacts or anything

[winter radish]

AMD being better at something for once

[subtle bison]

i would record a video but window recording on anything other than kde on linux sucks on wayland

not to mention my hw encoding doesnt work yet

[weak ermine]

in original it has very strong cubemaps reflections so no surprised

its like glass

[clear tendon]

uhhh idk why the spotlights on each map look like this now. anyone know how to fix this?

[subtle bison]

you probably have an addon replacing the default light sprites

you need to ignore those textures

yeowza this is a massive difference (left: init ver of autopbr, right: latest)

[onyx ridge]

aw heck we got the everything is shiny treatment

[stark ether]

Ok, I'll install Garry's Mode

[wispy crest]

not sure if concrete should be the reflective, but sure

[steel lark]

on hl2 it was kinda of reflective wasn't it tho lmao

[stark ether]

I be getting "FATAL ERROR: Remix package does not have a recognizable structure (missing 'bin' or '.trex' folder)" with the RTX Launcher

This is in the zip under AppData

[subtle bison]

you need to be using the x86_64 branch of the game in steam

[keen rivet]

I think it's meant to be glass covered emissive

[keen rivet]

It's pretty reflective irl

[keen rivet]

It'd be cool if somehow we could detect this and make volume fog equivalent

[clear tendon]

yeah that'd look really nice

[subtle bison]

you can technically do this with API lights, they have a "volumetric influence" variable

i have sliders that control it for all 3 light types used in maps but i could make it more granular like per-light

[keen rivet]

API lights still don't look correct 😔

[subtle bison]

meh i think the point and spot ones are good now, the distant one needs work still

[winter radish]

https://tenor.com/view/give-me-give-it-to-me-not-playing-hand-it-over-give-it-here-gif-4575914747970682174

[sonic apex]

holy shit...

[keen rivet]

I think in the first version for you the envmap wasn't working because it looked like the right image for me

I have another idea of how to extract metal information from source materials

Let it cook

This could bring us closer to having materials look as they do in non rtx

[sonic apex]

how many games do you think this concept is applicable to? like what about games that heavily rely on cubemaps and bump maps?

[keen rivet]

https://github.com/Xenthio/garrys-mod-rtx-remixed/pull/33

somebody give this branch a try

[subtle bison]

xoxor4d is working on it for gta 4

[sonic apex]

honestly probably makes the most sense for gta 4

would take many years to fully remake all the assets in that game

[keen rivet]

rtx_topbr_metallic 1

[keen rivet]

Is what you need to run for this

I'm still not home

[keen rivet]

Also asked it to do envmap tinting

[half viper]

Would it fix RR blurry textures?

[subtle bison]

idk

its just a sharpening filter

[half viper]

A sharpening filter to combat RR blurriness somehow

[subtle bison]

i dont think a sharpening pass over RR is going to look good

it might be sharper but its just gonna add to the AI-look it already has

[winter radish]

RR is just shit

[subtle bison]

i would say i agree but them shadows 🤤

an amd user can dream

[winter radish]

Can dream about RR on Vulkan

[keen rivet]

metallic extraction from source materials

theres really not that many perfectly metal things in hl2 for me to test this with lol

false positive sorta props look acceptable too

[weak ermine]

holly fuck

[dusk wagon]

think it could look a bit better but im happy

[keen rivet]

feel free to try this if you have metallic things in source you want to see shiny

[compact blaze]

this mod already feels so complete, what else is needed for a full release?

cause im genuinely so excited what could be done to make this better

[clear tendon]

HELL YEAH

[stark ether]

Very nice

[compact blaze]

what hud is that?

[clear tendon]

ZL hud https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3365657132

nah nah its not a gmod

no fucking way

peakest shit

[clear tendon]

ikr it's actually insane

[stark ether]

Not a lot of PBR mats in this Anor Londo map but I had to check it

One day you will be fully path traced, Anor Londo my beloved (and also the rest of DS1)

[keen rivet]

Are you guys crashing a lot?

[subtle bison]

no crashes for me

[clear tendon]

nope

[stark ether]

I'm crashing loading certain game maps

[onyx ridge]

where's the latest things to try this out

[stark ether]

#1116089843479498782 message

I guess there is a newer thing for metallics

[stark ether]

Does this need to be compiled

[subtle bison]

ye

i can compile it and send it here rq

[subtle bison]

for this PR ^

[stark ether]

Thank you

[onyx ridge]

wait is this for perf fork or regular

[stark ether]

Reg

[onyx ridge]

dies

[steel lark]

that's 1 fps with that many grass particles 🙏

[steel lark]

i'm using it on regular and it's working

[subtle bison]

i think i could port it to perf real quick

it doesnt depend on anything in the regular ver

[cerulean moat]

it would be nice

cuz regular has terrible culling

[subtle bison]

huh? regular should have 0 culling

perf is the one with issues sometimes

[cerulean moat]

sec will send a video

[steel lark]

do you mean a lot of culling or no culling (it could mean both)

[cerulean moat]

like here

[subtle bison]

ah the binary patches arent being applied then

do this in Advanced Install

[cerulean moat]

alright

[steel lark]

do you have to reapply once you install the autopbr?

[subtle bison]

nope

[steel lark]

ok then

do you know why there are some parts of the construct grass that are invisible sometimes in main rtx?

[subtle bison]

iirc its an issue with the nvidia driver, i saw it happen on my rtx 2080 rig

you have to re-toggle RT to fix it

[steel lark]

i also had a bug where i applied an opaque material to a window prop and the glass parts didn't change but whenever i got out of the map and back inside it would be fully opaque (or disabling and re-enabling rt)

[subtle bison]

mind getting a video for that?

[cerulean moat]

no changes
im using x86-64 version of gmod with chromium if it means something
and i installed default gmod preset, just when entering avalonia launcher im not switching anything

[steel lark]

sure

[subtle bison]

what did the launcher say when you ran the binary patches

[subtle bison]

uhh

can you open your vanilla gmod and run version in the console and send a screenshot?

[cerulean moat]

ok

seems it fixed itself

rubat

please

[steel lark]

video tobig

[subtle bison]

guess ill try a clean install as well, if none of the patches apply im gonna cry

[steel lark]

i updated the game before the patches broke 🙏

also cr the spawnmenu seems to be making me lag A SHET TON

[stark ether]

I'm sorry

[steel lark]

like 20% less fps

[stark ether]

Here's the log

[subtle bison]

hasnt that been a thing for a while? or is this only happening with the autopbr stuff

[steel lark]

idk i really only noticed it happening with autopbr

maybe it's because i've never used goverlay on rtx remix

should i disable it?

[compact blaze]

what gmod map is this?

[subtle bison]

NOOOO

[compact blaze]

what view addons for that slight screenshake and viewtilt?

[steel lark]

xess looks pretty good with sharpening lmao

[cerulean moat]

im not using any addons for this

[compact blaze]

how do i get that then?

[cerulean moat]

i have only addons for weapons

[cerulean moat]

get what😭 its just default gmod

[steel lark]

oh what

breens private reserve is bugged?

i'm pretty sure it worked before

ig it was just that one

[cerulean moat]

side question: but is there any addon to like spin weapon in hands to see it from all sides?

[compact blaze]

the viewtilt

[compact blaze]

flat/ugly lighting and culling?

[subtle bison]

just culling 💀

[compact blaze]

ah why lighting look so ugly

[subtle bison]

because culling makes the map glow lmao

[compact blaze]

also u really need to find a way to get gmod rtx to become official after the sky and autopbr stuff

[steel lark]

cool

[stark ether]

It's not a Gmod map, it's just a map of Anor Londo someone uploaded for Source Filmmaker

[compact blaze]

how easy is it to load source filmmaker maps in gmod

[subtle bison]

not sure why the launcher says it cant find anything, its just two that broke (for culling 🙂 )

this will be fun to fix 😭

[steel lark]

here if anyone uses papirus themes

a black and white version of the gmodrtx logo

they look like this

[steel lark]

nice normals

[cloud thunder]

oh no

[cerulean moat]

topbr is truly neat on cod weapons👀

[weak ermine]

ooohhh

im gona come

[cerulean moat]

my texture folder already 17 gb dang😶‍🌫️

[woeful phoenix]

That looks crazy

Deriving from the original textures is always the best

[willow fog]

Oh by the way does arc9 work with metallic yet or nah?

[lapis delta]

yes?

[willow fog]

No

There was some issue with the metallic maps

[lapis delta]

[lapis delta]

show me

[subtle bison]

@keen rivet mind taking a crack at this? I think its more than the offsets changing, i havent been able to fix it yet

im gonna port over topbr to perf fork real quick so we have that as a workaround

[weak ermine]

he is about converting to remix

[subtle bison]

iirc arc9 metallic maps for MW2019 are badly made and fucked

[willow fog]

yeah

[lapis delta]

https://giphy.com/gifs/yeah-speed-ishowspeed-D63HGAzG15LQrjBPRE

[willow fog]

WHYYYYYYY

@subtle bison

[subtle bison]

it probably broke during the refactor for the remix logic update, the rescan mod button should still work

[willow fog]

I wanted to disable my mod

[subtle bison]

it will be fixed for the proper release

[steel lark]

chromium is still not working for me on cachyos

[subtle bison]

weird, my 2080 rig is running cachyos and it works there

made sure you're using proton experimental

[steel lark]

i am

damn

[subtle bison]

hmm

[steel lark]

wait where is the custom proton?

should i use it?

the cachyos proton

[subtle bison]

you can, i use proton-ge but it shouldnt make a major difference

how did you install steam btw, native arch package?

[steel lark]

yeah

i don't have a single flatpak or snap 🙏

[subtle bison]

gotcha, same as me then

[willow fog]

Big cow

[onyx ridge]

i was just about to ask

[cerulean moat]

yay!

[subtle bison]

everything needed is in this archive, just extract into your perf installation and replace when prompted

[willow fog]

STOP HURTING MY COW MAN WTFFFFFF

gENUINELY FREAKY

[cerulean moat]

everything works🙌

Do we know of a good,, dense, forest map?

I wanna hunt dinosaurs in a forest

pool day 2/

Not even a lick of pbr

4 entire frames in one seond

[keen rivet]

Bro...

[subtle bison]

yeah hl2 ep2 is also pretty barren

[keen rivet]

Idk how those patches were found in the first place

[subtle bison]

nullderef helped a lot

i spent like 2 hours trying to find similar ones in ghidra but man i was so lost

maybe we should start merging the perf fork sooner

[keen rivet]

Yes

I agree

[subtle bison]

iirc its just world backfaces that are broken, entities arent culling

[keen rivet]

runtime patches too

[weak ermine]

source ports

[keen rivet]

Some patches can probably be replaced with hooks with sigs which are way less likely to change over time

[weak ermine]

i love recreations

[subtle bison]

yeah

[willow fog]

Epic

[weak ermine]

different things

[subtle bison]

turn off RT

i wanna see the engine fps

[willow fog]

probably 4

[subtle bison]

nah

[willow fog]

It was 4 when building cache

[subtle bison]

i remember the game itself being fine, my 9070 was on fire

wait is this perf or normal

all of that alpha foliage will bring down any gpu

[willow fog]

normal. I promis it was 4 fps when it was buildig the ulling cache thingy

[weak ermine]

https://gamebanana.com/mods/113909

[subtle bison]

normal will still lag due to the displacements

so try it on perf

omg i swear lost cost and ep1 are like peak normal maps and roughness/metallic
🤤

valve why did you regress ts for ep2

[weak ermine]

i think

bcz

ep1 is dark

player always uses flashlight

flashlight = normals

[willow fog]

alyx got stuck

fucker

[weak ermine]

without normals game gonna be look like shit

[willow fog]

Is there a gordon pm?

[weak ermine]

so no one gonna speak that source are not revolutionary

= - money

, - respect

[subtle bison]

yeah ep2 has like barely any normals

[weak ermine]

ep2 is bright, so no flashlight

no normals, bcz no one gonna see them anyway

same shit with css

flashlight in css off by default

so

[subtle bison]

omgggg these tiled floors 🤤

[weak ermine]

ez mathematics

[subtle bison]

wish i could live inside ep1

What is the diff between reg and perf

[willow fog]

perf

[weak ermine]

fps

[willow fog]

Believe me or not

[onyx ridge]

do i have to do something to get topbr to work because it doesn't seem to be doing 🥹

[subtle bison]

restart your game after you load into a map

it has to generate the mod and remix wont load it unless it sees it on startup

[onyx ridge]

[subtle bison]

only needs to be done once

[subtle bison]

perf fork doesnt use source's traditional way of rendering the map, instead it uses lua-based renders which bypasses a lot of visibility checks which prevents culling

also runs faster because it batches a lot of geometry into smaller drawcalls

[stark ether]

I see

Anything missing rendering-wise?

[subtle bison]

so you could call it a more "remix friendly" way of doing things

[weak ermine]

can someone tets it

[subtle bison]

map decals is the big one

[onyx ridge]

grtx should support minecraft mods and use flywheel for rendering

[willow fog]

thx alyx

[subtle bison]

it also isnt completely culling-free for dynamic entities like NPCs and physics props

[weak ermine]

imagine world where's minecraft blocks have normals by default

[onyx ridge]

the humble tacz

[subtle bison]

holy shit its hatsune miku

[onyx ridge]

why is tacz the only mod i've seen that includes _n and _s textures

i wish more mods would include them as like bundled resource packs or something
