      I was actually thinking the same thing lol. technically I think there is a mod you can download so that you can bind a key from your keyboard to turning path tracing on and off but honestly I already have over 110 mods running and I'm tired of modding at this point lol. I just want to enjoy the game. I wish there was an option for it as well though. the only difference during the daytime I really notice is that the shadows are slightly more lit up and "yellowed" because the sunlight is yellow which is cool but I just don't think its cool enough to lose 30 fps over honestly. hopefully in future AAA game * *cough* * GTA 6 * *cough* * they will have something like that a lot more optimized and figured out. there was a mod that made the the path tracing performance a lot better but 4 years later and they're still doing patches to this game and the latest patch unfortunately broke that awesome mod and the modder said that he's basically given up on trying to find a fix for it since it made the path tracing performance sucky again. but yeah at night it really does make a cool difference and indoors.

      Once she is in the car and everything becomes dark everything would look like that, but become brighter within seconds.
      They already do that the other way around. The open door is blazing bright and still everything returns to normal if the player would leave the car.

      That's the beauty of ray tracing and path tracing (full ray tracing). In some situations it can look near identical with raster but in many others it's such a huge difference as raster loses coherence outside it's sweet spot for viewing the scene.
      Ray tracing on top of raster changes the game completely makes the game scene look so much more dynamic and coherent but path tracing delivers it to a whole new level.
      I just can't wait for the games to start shipping natively with path tracing.

I suppose it's easier to take 10 shots of the overworld and call it a day. Stop being lazy. It's so easy to show the massive improvement.

    Similar to how the original Pyscho RT implementation made the games graphics/world more consistent and grounded compared to rasterization, path tracing continues that tradition. Only thing they need to touch up is tone down some things illuminating to much light and blowing out the scene e.g. 5:24 the advert billboard is completely blown out/washed out but they did say they're still working on the implementation so hopefully by the time the DLC comes out it will be perfect! I think I will wait for the 5000 series + DLC + Patches + 12 months of modding to revisit this game in all it's glory, great comparrison!

  • @imqqmi
    @imqqmi Před rokem +2

    Path tracing or global illumination works best when light can bounce around with indirect light. ie a sunny outdoor scene doesn't really allow light to bounce. Look for the shadow areas, these light up a little different compared to ray tracing. Where ray tracing often doesn't change brightness in a shadow when moving away from a reflective surface but path tracing shows you a subtle gradient, lighter closer to the indirect light source and falling off farther away.
    Especially the interior of the vehicle, the eyes of the lady is much more realistically rendered. In the last scene the edges of the piano are much better highlighted, so in those cases the detail in 3D models are better represented ie all those rounded and beveled edges really show off the realism of the models.
    Path tracing can really help with immersion in the game if done correctly and appropriately. But many games don't really benefit from it and doesn't make sense to use it.

    I've been playing with this on my laptop RTX 4090 (desktop 4080) and having some mixed results. It has a huge performance hit and in many cases like the scenes here, there's little to no difference over maxing out the previous ray tracing settings. Then, you'll find some places like the Esoterica shop and the ripperdoc clinic, and the effect is very pronounced. The weight of the objects on the shelves is just communicated so much better because the lighting is much more realistic. It's really stunning to look around slowly and take it in. Then you get into the outside world and parts of it (eg anywhere there's a high dynamic range of lighting and shadows) looks even better with path tracing, but most everything else looks unchanged and you've halved your frame rate.

    There is some improvement in indirect lighting. But this is probably because they increased the number of bounces and made more lights emissive, so the RT fakery in darker areas can be removed, like in cars. But still not all object emit light when they should. In the car when the displays were lighted up there was no change on the skin/hair shading of the lady, so the car display is not emissive.

The visual quality loss going from DLSS Quality to Performance is noticable in CP2077 on my 48" LG C1 and the PT mode also has some issues with shimmering and noise on some surfaces, this makes PT a hard choice even on a 4090 imo.
      Personally I even prefer the visuals of the rastered version of CP2077 in some scenes, though I do prefer RT most of the time, so it's not a flawless victory for either PT or RT in this game even when you have the hardware to run it well.

    Reflected lights take on the COLOR of the source light now. All rhe lighting coming from nowhere is gone so some scenes are appropriately dark. Light bounces around the scene, so some scenes are appropriately lighter. This is what we were waiting for with ray tracing.

  • @EhurtAfy
    @EhurtAfy Před rokem +13

    The main part of ray-tracing I've enjoyed on RTX 3090 are reflections. The game looks so much nicer when buildings are accurately reflected in the water. In general I prefer normal rasterized lighting, not just for FPS, but for visual clarity. Ray-tracing makes lights give off a kind of 'bloom' effect in the air, makes things look murky and cloudy sometimes. Sometimes realism makes it harder to play a game by reducing visual clarity in this way

  • @Tripnotik25

    Night time and shadows making RT looking like standard rasterization. Performance isn't all doom like you read in comments either, thats 4K with balanced DLSS, no framegen and you have screen space reflections turned up all the way to psycho, which by itself is a massive performance tax, still 60fps+. Great videos, thanks B4B. P.S.: the black caliburn really is the only car one needs owning isn't it lol.

    It's a bit of a weird comparison, but I wonder how the Overdrive Optimization Mod version would stack against the Psycho RT version with hd texture, LoD, minor effect, and lighting mods performance wise. The optimization mod reduces quality but gains performance, and the lighting and texture mods don't really affect performance that much besides VRAM, and you'd only match the Overdrive usage. You could even use ReShade to match the Overdrive look and SSGI to mimic the emissive lighting. A sort of Peak Ray Tracing and raw fidelity vs Limited Path Tracing comparison.

    The difference during generally indirect lit scenes and scenes with a lot of emmissive lights are noticable. Don't think it is worth the performance hit, just to get more fidelity during those specific conditions.
    I stand by my opinion. It looks as good as a UE5 title with hardware lumen enabled, but with performance like ass and much much worse LOD management. Cyberpunk serves and served as a paid advertisement for nvidia.

      So Global Illumination (Psycho RTX Lighting) uses a Hybrid system, using Raster skybox baked lighting, but adding color and light bounce in a single pass, so some under cover areas that should be dark, have prepared lighting in there glowing up the scene by mistake on a ceiling or floor, path tracing calculates all light bounces and interactions from the get go, showing more accurate lighting values and also includes multiple bounces of light.
      Lights casting shadows has a limit, path traced shadows, every light contributes shadows and light bleed over the scene.
      There are some other aspects to it, but those hybrid systems have light leaking and limited bounces, path tracing is pure maths while hybrid RT uses predone calculated systems with its own flaws fixed by the more accurate model.

    Fun tech demo - definitely not worth the fps hit. (It is a tech DEMO after all)
    In the final scene with Hanako, the lower resolution DLSS setting is like a "beauty" filter on her forehead! There's better lighting in the ceiling and reflecting off the piller on the right, to the left of the tables (and the chairs at the tables have much different lighting on their cushions). But the lack of depth on her forhead is also pretty crappy. Maybe reshade would help?
    The improvements are so minor, the resolution sacrifices so steep... makes you really appreciate how much regular ol' ray tracing is accomplishing. (4090 and 7950x3d here and I have enjoyed the 80ish minimum ~100ish average frame rate with a gsync ultimate monitor but I think I'll be turning off path tracing after a few more hours of exploring the technology - I like sharp textures and more pixels).

  • @TheLoneWolf00

      Than don't use it.. No one is telling you to turn it on. Its the next step in lighting tech, so its expected to come with a performance hit. Nvidia is using Ai to mitigate the hit, this is the next evolution is graphic technology. Just because older preshading is computational cheaper and it can look very often as good doesn't mean we don't strive for better and better results. The performance will eventually catch up.

Also in 1:56 on-wards, i highly doubt her jeans would reflect (idk if this is the right word, maybe "be so shining" or smth like that) this much life if the scene was recreated in real life, and her skin, shirt and straps too, especially those black straps which in real life wouldn't be so overly exposed and there's no difference of reflections on her skin and shirt which should be, as they are different "material"

It has some washing out effects and handles shadows sometimes to the point it like adds additional shadows that shouldn't even be there and other times deletes them.

    For me, the big difference is between raster and hybrid RT, then PT can, sometimes, be on a whole new level even compared to RT.
    Hence RT is the perfect balance between visuals and performance.
    Overdrive will be great when hardware acceleration manages a -50% in framerate instead of the current -70% with ADA.
