Can’t enable Ray tracing for Resident Evil 4 on PC
As the title says it won’t let me enable Ray tracing on RE4, the option is greyed out.. my graphics card is the Gigabyte AMD 7900XTX and CPU is Ryzen 9 5900X, I can do Ray tracing in Cyberpunk so I know my system can do it but for whatever reason it won’t let me on RE4. I have all the drivers and stuff up to date so I’m not sure what exactly is wrong but if anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it. Also when I enable HDR the image becomes all washed out looking.. I have my PC connected to my LG C2 oled if that helps troubleshoot my dilemma, thanks everyone.

Any idea why HDR is making the game look very washed out? Is HDR bugged as well?

They didn't do anything to it since the game hasn't seen a single update since launch.

No they didn't. You can only enable it from the main menu.

Hmm I see.. well would you happen to maybe know why I am not able to turn Ray tracing on in the menu options? It’s greyed out for me and not sure why..

What model of monitor do you have? Many come advertised with "HDR" but its a bs fake HDR that looks terrible. I brought a 1440p one last summer and turned out it was one of those.

You can only enable it in the main menu, and it tells you this in the description.

Before you load into the game, at the main menu.

Then it's quite possible your PC is not capable of raytracing.

Not misinformation, you require modern hardware to enable raytracing.

Ray Tracing can be always enabled. It's a graphic option. It isn't like DLSS.
