Ray Tracing in War Thunder!

Any news for Ray Tracing on MacOS?

Still total waste to this day. I have a RTX 4090 and still can´t max Raytracing. Heck, i can do cyberpunk 2077 Pathtracing and still have above 30 FPS in 4K.
But WT manages to drop below 30 regularly.
Thats besides constant crashes.

This isn´t a Beta, a beta is rough and unpolished, but is fully playable.
This is more an alpha if anything and that you people released it taht way with all trailer and everything is embarrassing to say the least.

Thats strange because im running it very nicely at around 120fps right now using 4070ti super

I’m finding Ray Tracing to be pretty decent on my end, I can get 60FPS test drive on movie settings with low ray tracing on a 6gb 3050, which in my opinion is definitely really good. I don’t use it because I prefer to have higher FPS but it’s stable for me and definitely playable. Well done!

That’s unusual you might be the only “One” experiencing this. Could you share a screenshot of your ray tracing settings and your screen resolution, please?

For context, I’m using a 4090 with a resolution of 3840x2160. With maximum ray tracing enabled, my frame rate drops from 140 to 70 FPS, and when viewing through a tank sight, it further decreases to around 40–50 FPS.

I’m eagerly anticipating the NEW patch to see if it’s made any improvements.

I’ll give it a shot when I get home from work and share my findings in this thread as well.

By the way, do you have the most recent NVIDIA drivers installed?

(I am NOT using Ray Tracing still) however, I gained something like 20-50+ FPS after new update.
Using DX 12 with 3090ti.

If/when I retest RT I will post an update here.

I did my own test.

RTX 3060, 1080P, TSR, upscaling native, ray tracing medium and it’s really good.
I had 3-4 drops to 2-3 fps and I thought my computer will explode but after that it’s actually stable 60 fps, sometimes 50-55 fps.
Before the update I had regular drops to 35-40 fps no matter what upcalling and what ray tracing preset I used.

So far so good, at least on maps without windows, I just played on remastered Rhine and it’s gorgeous.

DLSS 4 support added !!!
I don’t think I can use DLSS 4 cuz im on 30xx series, but very interested to see if this works well for the 40xx / 50xx users!

EDIT: Soooo looks like there were some improvements to DLSS (with DLSS version 4) even for 30xx series cards? I don’t quite understand the articles, but if anyone understands more and/or sees improvements for 30xx cards with DLSS, please let me know! I currently do NOT use DLSS on any game with my 3090ti due to the “blurring” that occurs.

Nvidia DLSS 4 update post that I found, I don’t understand what it really means for 30xx and/or 40xx cards: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/forums/geforce-graphics-cards/5/555374/dlss-4-faq/

DLSS 4 is less stable and looks worse than TRS in my case.

Hello, what about PS5pro, now that AMD received Ray Tracing support?

RT seems to work pretty nicely now! I haven’t seen performance degradation after the first match anymore.

Water looks bad, though. Very blurry reflections and massive instability especially at the waterline when turning camera.

DLSS4 is gorgeous! Crisp detail out to horizon, ghosting gone.

Running 11520x2160, raytracing medium, DX12, DLSS4
FPS about 100-120
RTX 5080

Peak Warthunder achieved!

Oh yes, I changed TSR to DLSS and it looks better. I don’t know why it didn’t work for the first time.

Seems RT now crashes my game when switched on irrespective of settings, its fine in game itself but any hangar or menus stuff and it just freezes up and crashes me out
Was absolutely fine for me prior to the updates too averaged around 80fps with it on ultra, get a few more fps now but I can’t leave it on without crashing out
