NVIDIA makes it easy to redesign old games with RTX Remix
Introduction
NVIDIA has finally released the long-awaited beta version of the RTX Remix tool. For fans of classic PC games who are eager to experience modern graphics, this tool provides an all-in-one solution. Designed specifically for modifiers, it allows AI-enhanced ray and tissue tracing to be integrated into older games.
RTX Remix: Revolutionary Tool Detection
NVIDIA developed RTX Remix on its graphical collaboration platform, Omniverse 3D. The tool consists of two basic components: one app to create new lighting scenarios and another to redesign and add assets to the scene. According to the company, this tool can be used to completely redesign games based on DirectX 8 or DirectX 9, although it is still in beta.
Compatibility and download
The tool is now available for free download, as NVIDIA encourages editing communities to try it out and provide feedback on future updates. A non-exhaustive list of compatible games has been released, including classic games such as Call of Duty 2, Hitman 2: Silent Assassin, Garry's Mod, Freedom Fighters, Need for Speed Underground 2, Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines, and more. Notably, Portal: Prelude RTX received improvements in textures, models and lighting.
Miscellaneous Applications
Not only was NVIDIA's tool used to improve existing games, but it was also used to create downloadable content. Orbifold Studios uses RTX Remix to develop Half-Life 2 RTX: An RTX Remix Project, a paid version of the popular game. The tool is expected to open up a wide range of redesigned games for modifiers to explore.
Advanced Features of RTX Remix
One of the key features is the AI-powered generative tool that uses Tensor Cores in GeForce RTX GPUs. This tool analyzes low-resolution assets, creates detailed materials and increases accuracy by four times. Modifiers can benefit from the actual display of the precise interaction of materials with ray tracing lighting. RTX Remix lets modifiers integrate ray tracing, DLSS 3, and Nvidia Reflex for an end-to-end gaming experience.
