Ray-tracing & Lower resolutions

Thank you, this was helpful.

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.

Are you playing in windowed/ borderless 4k? Thats the issue the minute you put the game into 4k and go full screen the resolution gets wacky and you cant see the menu to do anything. To your point on Ray tracing, if like you im playing on a 2080ti Then
why wouldnt i want to use the Ray tracing the card is capable of.

I'm playing at Full screen at 4K...





with ray tracing turned off, the menu screen is normal / fine for me, but as soon as i turn ray tracing on with full screen at 4K, the menu screen goes all weird as you have described,

The solution that works for me is to turn off ray tracing.

No i tried to activate ray tracing before creating world 1st time than created world & tried to activate ray tracing but both wouldn't allow ray tracing activation
