Ray tracing is incredibly expensive to compute. To keep frame rates high, RTGI only casts a few rays per pixel per frame, resulting in a noisy image. RTGI 0.17.0.2 deploys an overhauled temporal accumulator that blends data from previous frames with the current frame. This eliminates the "fizzing" or "boiling" visual noise often seen on moving objects, resulting in a silky-smooth image without causing aggressive ghosting or trailing artifacts. 2. Infinite Bounce Overhaul
Always leave this checked. The 0.17.0.2 optimization ensures that the visual leap of multi-bounce light is well worth the negligible performance hit. Final Verdict Ray tracing is incredibly expensive to compute
Place the RTGI .fx files into the Shaders directory and the lookup tables into the Textures directory.
Next-Gen ReShade Lighting: The RTGI 0.17.0.2 Release The release of by developer Pascal Gilcher (better known as Marty McFly) represents a landmark moment for PC graphics customization.
