Re: VXGI 2.0 is out!!!!!! (dynamic ray tracing)
What makes you think this is 'dynamic ray tracing'? it's voxel based, and the only tracing I think it has is voxel cone tracing. I could be wrong, as I don't know how 2 differs from 1, but with it coming from you I'm going to want some sources... -
Re: VXGI 2.0 is out!!!!!! (dynamic ray tracing)
found this video pretty cool, but trying to figure out how to install this seems like a nightmare. you have to download the ue4 source code and compile a new build or something through visual studio? yuck. what is this 2003?! Looks fun to play around with but seems like it would take a few hours to get working properly.… -
Re: VXGI 2.0 is out!!!!!! (dynamic ray tracing)
Someone asked me how I set it up and I told them I just followed this tutorial (it's for version 1.0, but the same steps work for 2.0). It's not too hard to get it installed. You do have to follow some of the steps carefully to keep advancing to the next. When Visual Studio starts to compile the source code together, it… -
Re: VXGI 2.0 is out!!!!!! (dynamic ray tracing)
'Dynamic cone tracing' doesn't sound as cool. :s Incidentally, the first whitepaper using this technique is called "Ray tracing with Cones". http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.32.6170&rep=rep1&type=pdf -
Re: VXGI 2.0 is out!!!!!! (dynamic ray tracing)
I haven't tried it out yet, but from what I've read in the documents, some leaking is unavoidable due to the nature of voxelization/cone tracing (at least until more hardware power drives it out completely) . My personal opinion, I don't think it's anywhere near as obnoxious or noticeable. Especially when compared to its… -
VXGI 2.0 is out!!!!!! (dynamic ray tracing)
Remember all those dynamic ray tracers that were on display at GDC? One of the lesser known plugins is now one of the first to come out! VXGI 2.0 is now out with a bunch of upgrades. * VXAL, or Voxel Area Lighting * Improved overall performance * One-pass voxelization * Simpler controls for tracing and voxelization *… -
Re: VXGI 2.0 is out!!!!!! (dynamic ray tracing)
Definitely experiment more with your settings. If you're using any sort of ambient occlusion, including HBAO+, I found it's better to tone it down to get a more natural look. It has a tendency to interfere, in my opinion. Also, I noticed that screen space reflections stick on- so I had to check the box in the active PPV… -
Re: VXGI 2.0 is out!!!!!! (dynamic ray tracing)
If you guys want to play with VXGI without having to build your own exes, just download Toolbag. I'm not sure what nVidia's latest version has or how widely it differs from what we're doing, but it will give you a good idea of how the general concept works. Generally speaking, VXGI can look pretty good in small scenes, as…
