I wanted to show the abysmal performance first, but then the hornet sting update happen and i tested a second time.
To say it short, the previous Ray Tracing performance was utter shit, but now they made fucking good improvements.
In worst case scenarious i jump from average 30 to average 70 fps.
Also the effects, especially the windows look much MUCH better.
For comparisen:

Hornet Sting Update: https://youtu.be/Ve6xgcPHS8w
Thats with a RTX 4090.
Wow, that is a huge improvement, and still very obvious when watching a youtube video (my monitor is 2k, and I made sure to change the youtube quality to 2k/1440p) versus seeing it in person on your computer. I really like that you showed your settings before you entered the map too, great work, thanks for sharing!
Yes, its randomly crashing when with RT on.
Already opened a bug report, but no response until this time.

Gaigin are clearly early in the optimization regarding DLSS.
While we know they are using “DLSS 4” there’s a lot of detail missing.
DLSS4 includes:
Super Resolution
Ray Reconstruction
Frame Generation
Multi Frame Generation
So far all we know for sure is Super Resolution is supported. Frame/Multi Frame Generation is not, and Ray Reconstruction is unknown.
Some other DLSS4 games have checkboxes for each of these options.
The good news is that framerates should only go up in the future as both NVIDIA, and Warthunder optimize with better drivers, and more DLSS features enabled.
I do have your cpu and a 7900xt nitro+ i testet RT, it works fine with about 70fps on 4k.
But i prefer to disable RT, cause i dont see any differents. Just in Windows. How many maps with windows we do have?
Also reflexion on water is better with RT, but yes during a match often there is not much time to enjoy the beauty graphics now 😁
Which grafic card do you actually use?
Maybe u should try a AMD card next time. We dont have any problems in 4k i do have about 70 fps with everything maxed out. Incl RT Ultra. Just tree and grass distance rendering is at 50%.
Zotac 4070ti super
its not an nvidea issue. I only use nvidea and the game looks and runs amazingly
Yeah, so far DLSS 4 works great with DLAA and Ultra Quality Preset Enabled however Warthunder Raytracing definitely needs Ray Reconstruction as an option. The Artifacts from Raytracing is very noticeable and feels just as bad as Old DLSS before the update even on high presets
