just disable raytracing

[DaylightDemon]

game looks amazing without raytracing aswell. in fact its hard to even see the difference most times. with raytracing and FSR i got 30 fps in coruscant with a 3070 everything on high. in fact FSR doesnt really seem to do much. without it i get 60-50 fps which isnt amazing, but playable.

im sure performance gets much better when they patch it, but in the mean time just play without raytracing, you wont regret it.

Yeah, I've turned RT off and on in multiple areas, and the biggest change I saw was a little bit of water on a desert planet looked slightly better but my fps was cut in half.

This is why we can't have nice things.

what most ppl dont realize is that as of yet, even if you run a 4000 series card, raytracing is a mere gimmick. it doesnt really make games look nice. its just a tech that makes lighting less time intensive for devs when they can fully rely on it in the future.

RT is a gimmick like PHYSX. Need to just drop it.

lol AMD is the only gimmick I see these days. Nvidia's like 90% market share seems to agree. AMD gpu's may as well not even exist, just like ARC. They are pretend hardware, for people that like to believe lies, tho at least ARC is cheap....

funny how raytracing dosnt seem to add anything. at best it screws up a month or so after the game comes out (looking at you hogwarts)

Hey man really appreciate your thoughts on this, I'll turn off RT and see how it goes.

well, there are always exceptions. anyways, the main point of raytracing isnt how good it can look, since baked lighting can look just as or even more beautiful, depending on how much work you put in. the main point of raytracing still is you can achieve beauty without putting in tons of work. right now we are in a middle ground, where due to the majority of systems not being able to run raytracing at good framerates or at all, devs have to make sure the lighting works both with and without raytracing. hence raytracing being a pretty pointless gimmick so far in most titles.

They still haven't fixed that nonsense in HL. It was fine, but then nope, can't have that working and we're just going to abandon it to the sound of crickets chirping.

Already disabled raytracing but framerate is extremely too low somehow.

I never activated raytracing but the game still freezes starting planet 2

You leave PhysX out of this

Every single game since it was introduced dies with ray tracing that tries to use it no matter the monster machines they have. It just isn't perfected or an industry standard yet it seems.
