UE4 plugin (Download here ) Leveraging the power of ray tracing, RTXGI provides scalable solutions to compute multi-bounce indirect lighting without bake times, light leaks, or expensive per-frame costs. RTXGI 1.1.40 As a developer, System Latency (click-to-display) can be one of the hardest metrics to optimize for. and natively supported.

Q: Does the scene have to be pre-baked in any way to use ray tracing and/or path tracing? Pierre: The path tracer does not require any pre-baking, thanks to its more brute force (and slower) approach to lighting.

Ensure your meshes are marked as "Static Bake", then enable SDFGI in the Environment settings. There are also some new debug modes to visualize how SDFGI is working: SDFGI Cascades: Show the world as SDF, helps you understand what voxel sizes are, so you adjust your geometry to work better with those voxel sizes.

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. It was initially intended just to help with misclicks but became a pillar of the game (and was awesome for debugging too).
