Nope, I just double checked (you really had me wondering, I didn't even notice the options as I configured the graphics from the ingame settings, where I didn't see these toggles!)...

Goes to show how interchangeable they really are ;) For shits n giggles I'll load up that same scene in RT in a bit and add screenshots to compare!

Ahaha... the RT ON option seems to give me a black screen. Sound, but no image. Game doesn't crash. Lel

Here I am filling in for vayra. This is in mendoza, RT Low, RT High and SSR High, reflections only, no shadows, TAA off. (cropped so as to not reveal the mission objectives for spoiler reasons)

RT Low, RT High, SSR High, in that order (though you should be able to tell anyways).

thanks. no surprise to me RT looks better



How does RT lighting reflect on 47's bald head?
fun fact. the original Hitman: Codename 47 devs made him bald on purpose because they couldn't make his hair look realistic enough and they didn't want some ugly Lego hair look for him lol. that and they then come up with the iconic barcode on his noggin' idea, which obviously would be hidden if he had hair.


thanks to that decision, it has all ultimately lead up to the epitome of modern gaming graphics! :laugh:
Funnily enough as you go up from SSR, to RT low (which does a lot of its tracing off of screenspace information, but still does some with offscreen rays) to RT High (which has much better coverage than low) you can see 47's mirror-shine polished head getting increasingly lit up as it better reflects the environment.

And they say RT is worthless.
