BF5 with AMD Using Rx570 -Ray Tracing

stuman · 1 Sep 2019 at 20:37

It’s not ray tracing.

Reflections beyond what is drawn on screen are not drawn.

Flames don’t reflect.

Where do people host pictures nowadays?

Can someone go to a building with its glass still in tacted and see if the players reflection shows in the glass. This will 100% confirm if Ray Tracing is indeed working on AMD in this game.

I can see the reflections of other players, but not myself.

Depends on the positioning of the other players, if they are on screen or not (could be SSR) The fact the player model is not reflected makes me feel its not ray tracing.

SSR doesn't show players though if players are being shown then its defo Ray Tracing.

Have I caused drama lol

I now need to see if Nvidia Ray Tracing on this game renders the player on the glass. I am sure it does, I am also very sure other players dont show on the glass for none ray tracing.

But it doesn't reflect the player model? Very strange.

Best way to confirm would be can you see another player's reflection in a window or other reflective surface around a corner when their player model would be off screen.

Yeah, its very strange this needs to be shown better. I just can not be bothered re-installing BF5 otherwise I would record some gameplay.

The fact players are being rendered in the glass tells me its Ray tracing is working I am very sure standard BF5 on AMD doesn't show any player reflections

Not really the player model is a vampire.

Don't blame you, bf5 is a waste of ssd space.

I'm sceptical. Just not seen enough evidence so far. Like off screen reflections, flame effect reflections and the player model reflection not just in glass but other reflective surfaces with differing relectiveness (if that's even a word)

So I managed to find a nice room

Off

On

Other player

Off

On

I did see another player run through the room and he was reflected in the shiny floor, then someone blow the house up lol, still not sure if this is RTX or not, the reflections in the fancy house floor look rtx'y tho

Is there a single player bit of the game that would really show it off, I feel like I'm messing up peoples games, when I find an empty server other people join, ended up with 3 other people on one all on my team, no idea why O_o

shankly1985 · 1 Sep 2019 at 22:01

Wow it seems to be working then lol
What I am more surprised about if it is indeed Ray Tracing is the performance hit isn't really that bad.

Edit
I now must reinstall BF5 lol

So the reflection of players is working, what about fire? does it reflect onto the players gun?

Edit2

I really do think this is Ray Tracing! If you look at the picture above in the room with it on the player's weapon is reflecting the room onto the gun. LOL

Reflections are as good without this on sw bf 2 new one when on naboo palace in dx12 mode on amd cards.

Yes thats proper BF5 ray tracing mate.
And we know the 2070S has -30%to -40% performance when RT is active, seems the 5700XT barely loses 10%.
So what the RT Cores are doing?

That's performance whilst queueing for wow classic, Spotify and 480 chrome tabs open lol

caliberlife · 1 Sep 2019 at 22:28

Nvidia RT cores just a gimmick? unless Navi RNDA really shines more than Nvidia RT tech

Poneros · 1 Sep 2019 at 22:30

Always funny to see who takes the bait with these videos.

What RT actually looks like

caliberlife · 1 Sep 2019 at 22:31

I’m very happy with my 5700 XT purchase now. All we now need is AMD to roll out ray tracing enabled on 5700 series and other AMD cards.

Once I have my battlefield 5 installed and tested tomorrow I'll know for sure. Am still not 100% if this is ray tracing and I want to test fire.

But so far the screen shots above are looking very promising.

Hell even if this isn't ray tracing why isn't this a graphics settings its clearly better than default setting.
