Nvidia’s latest RTX Remix update brings path-traced particles to classic games — major overhaul promises 'tens of thousands' of particles without significant performance reduction
Nvidia's RTX Remix update introduces path-traced particles to classic games, offering real-time effects like fire and smoke with full lighting and animation controls. The update allows for rendering "tens of thousands" of particles without a significant performance hit. Modders now have access to advanced visual effects tools typically found in modern game engines. The update also streamlines the authoring workflow, making it easier to add particle emitters and tweak properties within the Remix UI. Over 165 games are compatible with RTX Remix, with the community revitalizing classics like Half-Life 2 and Need for Speed Underground.
