How do i install the Ray Tracing mod.. The instructions are not clear on the github.

The steps are quite vague on the github.

Unzip TFE_RT_Bin.zip into an empty folder

Unzip TFE_RT_Textures.zip to the same folder
This archive contains textures (upscaled/PBR)

(Optional) DLSS:
download nvngx_dlss.dll, place into the Bin/ folder
download RayTracedGL1-DLSS.zip, and replace RayTracedGL1.dll in Bin/ with the downloaded one

Copy these original Serious Sam: The First Encounter files from the Steam folder:
Levels folder
1_00_ExtraTools.gro
1_00_music.gro
1_00c.gro
1_00c_Logo.gro
1_00c_scripts.gro
1_04_patch.gro

Launch Bin/SeriousSamTFE.exe

It all sounds quite clear to me. Download, unzip, copy files.

yes but where does anything go? do I just dump this in TFE directory or what?
They said to put it in an empty folder, where does that folder go?

Where do the OG TFE files I copied go? If I wanted someone to quote the github i would have asked that, but I asked for clearer instructions to the installation because I don't understand the steps that are given on the github.

Thsi means you should create new empty folder where the RT game will reside. You can choose any location, e.g. C:\Games\SamRT\

There are two common ways to install source ports - either you put them in separate folder and also put original game files there, or extract archive into the current game location. Sam RT is the first case.

Ok thank you. I am use to traditional "directory dumping" mods or using a mod manager.
Appreciate the specification, take care.
