  1. issues with ray tracing xbox series x


    Hi guys, I'm having problems with most ray traced games, some work flawlessly (the medium, resident evil 8, cyberpunk 2077) while others freeze in game after a few minutes (matrix awakens, metro exodus, doom eternal, guardians of the galaxy).

    Already tried with a full reset to no avail. All other games work fine.

    Console has plenty of air around and doesn't seem to overheat.

    Tried plugging the console directly to the wall but no dice. I've seen other people having the same issue, appearing exactly in the same way:

    - matrix awakens crashing to dashboard at the same moment for everyone who's having the issue;

    - metro exodus having the problem of all lights going dark after a few minutes;

    - GotG freezing with sound working and able to close the game via the xbox button. Makes me wonder if its not an "hardware" issue, but some kind of driver/firmware problem with some units. Could it be? I bought my unit on February 2021, so might be considered close to the launch units. I've also read on the net someone who was having the same issues, who serviced his xbox and noticing that they solved the issue in a few minutes without opening the console.

    :)

    Ray Tracing

    Hi,

    Ray Tracing is on a per-game basis on both the Series S and the Series X. Some games have it, some do not. If a game has Ray Tracing it will normally be in it's options menu. Some games such as Watch Dogs Legion have ray tracing enabled by default.

    Unlike Series X, the S model does not have RT for some games that the Series X has.

    Xbox Series X/S ray tracing

    Ok so only certain games will have ray tracing? Do you know if any games that were on the xbox one will be capable of it on the series s/x? Also I’ve seen videos showing the series X’s ray tracing abilities and they used minecraft as an example. Do you now
    if this is real and if minecraft will support ray tracing or is this unconfirmed?

    One of the main reasons I plan on buying one of the new consoles is for the ray tracing abilities (especially on minecraft)

    Ray-tracing & Lower resolutions

    Hi,

    Ray tracing isn't about resolution. Ray tracing is about lights, shadows and reflections. There are three main types of RT that you'll see on Series X/S. These are:

    • Ray traced global illumination.
    • Ray traced reflections
    • Ray traced shadows

    It's unlikely you'll see all forms of RT in games as it is a very demanding graphics feature.

    There hasn't been any videos of note released about the true ray tracing capabilities on Series X/S yet, but there are loads of videos about RT on gaming PCs if you're curious about what it will look like.

    But regardless of what TV/Monitor you are using, if a game has Ray Tracing it will be available to you.

    Minecraft Ray Tracing

    Expect from mojang and microsoft ray tracing on the xbox series XIX.In the near future, it is not worth it because so far, beta testing is taking place on windows 10 and there is no point in waiting in the near future. Maybe when they finish with windows 10, then they will switch and start working with ray tracing on the xbox series X S. We just need to wait if you think about it, then somewhere in the middle or at the end of 2021, there will be an update for the Xbox Series X Series.
