Remastered at its finest with Nvidia RTX Remix beta

To experience the nostalgia of classic games with 2024 graphics? Yes, the Nvidia RTX Remix beta brings a breath of fresh air to the modding community.

Half-Life, Portal and many other classic games have already earned a place in our hearts. We can no longer enjoy these games as portals to the past because, unfortunately, it’s been a long time since we’ve seen an original idea outside of a few indie game companies. AAA game studios are no longer able to offer us original games, perhaps due to laziness or rising production costs of the games, but our eyes have gotten so used to the graphics they offer that we can’t even replay a masterpiece like Skyrim without mods.

The Nvidia RTX Remix beta addresses exactly this problem. It’s time to experience games with high replayability, games that we will not get bored of finishing over and over again, once again with new technology graphics!

How does it do it? See how the NVIDIA GeForce YouTube channel showcases the capabilities of the Nvidia RTX Remix beta in the video below.

What is Nvidia RTX Remix beta?

The Nvidia RTX Remix beta is a revolutionary new modding platform that allows creators to easily remaster classic games with cutting-edge graphics and effects, powered by the magic of Nvidia’s RTX technology and the AI prowess of Omniverse. Think of it as a one-stop shop for breathing new life into your favorite old games.

What can you do with the Nvidia RTX Remix beta?

• Full ray tracing: Add stunning real-time ray tracing reflections, shadows, and global illumination to your classic games, making them look more realistic and immersive than ever before
• DLSS: Boost performance with Nvidia’s Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) technology, which uses AI to upscale lower resolution images to higher resolutions while maintaining sharp visuals. This means you can enjoy buttery-smooth framerates even with ray tracing enabled
• Generative AI tools: Take advantage of powerful AI-powered tools to automatically enhance materials, textures, and even generate new assets, saving you tons of time and effort
• Modern physically-based rendering: Bring your remastered games to life with physically-based rendering, which simulates the real-world behavior of light and materials, making everything look and react more naturally

How does Nvidia RTX Remix beta work?

RTX Remix is built on top of Nvidia Omniverse, a real-time 3D collaboration platform. This means you can work on your remasters in a collaborative environment with other creators, making the process even more fun and rewarding.

The basic workflow of Nvidia RTX Remix beta is as follows:

• Capturing game assets: Use RTX Remix to extract assets from your classic game, such as models, textures, and animations
• Enhancing assets: Utilize the built-in AI tools to automatically improve the quality of your extracted assets or manually fine-tune them to your liking
• Creating new assets: If needed, you can use Omniverse Create to generate entirely new assets for your remaster, such as environments, objects, or even characters
• Adding RTX effects: Apply ray tracing, DLSS, and other RTX effects to your remastered game to make it shine
• Sharing your work: Once you’re happy with your creation, you can share it with the community or even release it as a mod for others to enjoy

RTX Remix is perfect for anyone who wants to revisit their favorite classic games with a fresh coat of paint. Whether you’re a seasoned modder or just a casual gamer with a passion for old titles, RTX Remix gives you the tools and technology to make your dreams a reality.
