Half-Life 2 receives ray tracing and NVIDIA RTX Remix effects
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
To this day, Half-Life 2 continues to attract the attention of players and enthusiasts releasing various modifications
Recently, NVIDIA released the RTX Remix modding platform, which allows creating remasters (the corresponding tools should be released soon). However, enthusiasts were already able to access RTX Remix through a workaround, thanks to the Portal with RTX remaster that was built on this platform.
As a result, the graphics of Half-Life 2 have been improving for some time now. Developer Igor Zdrowowicz shared footage that caught the attention of journalists.
Half-Life 2 is gradually looking better, but not everything is going smoothly. For instance, it turned out that the original textures look bad when upscaled, so they had to be recreated. Water and fire rendering also present issues. Nevertheless, work on Ravenholm is nearing completion.
Igor Zdrowowicz published several screenshots of the updated Half-Life 2 and compared them with the original.
