You’ll learn how to leverage Nucleus for collaboration, AI for asset tagging, and USD and MDL for ground truth content creation and lighting using ray tracing. Traditionally, game developers have baked most lighting and supported a small number of “hero” lights that are computed at runtime.

Wisely, the game doesn't really explain invasion conditions, and the uncertainty is a lot more interesting (until it isn't). Bot invaders often don't interrupt a boss fight. except the "Egor" boss fight, which takes place in a free roam area and gets much more interesting with an invasion.

DLSS uses advanced AI rendering to produce image quality comparable to native resolution, and in some cases even better quality, while only conventionally rendering a fraction of the pixels. This AI based anti-aliasing mode is for users with spare GPU headroom and looking for higher levels of image quality.

One good reason is to know your inheritance, to reexamine it, to look for ideas which were baked into the very earliest version of the game and see if changing them could transform the experience. Why go back to revisit games that stand well on their own and, moreover, are part of a franchise that is continuing to succeed and grow.

AI: The New VFX Sidekick AI tools are now slashing rotoscoping time. Filmustage fundamentally changed VFX pre-production by introducing AI-powered script analysis that automatically identifies and catalogs entire VFX sequences. Studios keep their color management as perfectly matched as synchronized swimmers.

As I look back at the history of NVIDIA RTX, now with over 500 RTX games and applications powered by DLSS, ray tracing, and AI-enhanced technologies, I thought it would be a good time to sit down and talk with Alexey Panteleev , an NVIDIA engineer who worked closely on the Quake II RTX project.

Here you can see the Sponza demo model, with baked direct lighting, and the corresponding light map: Note that this first pass is not taking occlusion into account yet. If I still have some time left I will take a look at adding some sort of AI denoiser, but I can't promise anything :). That will be added in the following weeks.

Bianca manually did the retopology for the nymph, unwrapped and laid out the maps, baked the details, and started to spend time learning more about texturing in Substance Painter. This sprint, Bianca continued tweaking and refining the model, adding detailed clothing and experimenting with hair cards and skin color.

Speaking of AlphaGo, it is interesting to note that the architecture of the world’s best game-playing AI reflects this same search/heuristic balance, its Monte Carlo tree search uses heuristics to channel the raw power of pure look-ahead, efficiently searching the game tree for directions with the greatest average value, and its board-evaluation (..)
