RTX Remix, NVIDIA’s innovative, new modding platform for remastering classic DirectX 8 and 9 games with RTX technology features such as path tracing, NVIDIA DLSS, and AI-enhanced textures has had a major component open-sourced, and it is available today.
RTX Remix, part of the NVIDIA Studio suite of apps, is composed of two core components that work together to enable modders to remaster classic PC games: the RTX Remix creator toolkit, and a custom RTX Remix runtime.
The RTX Remix creator toolkit, built on NVIDIA Omniverse and used to develop Portal with RTX, allows modders to assign new assets and lights within their remastered scene and use AI tools to rebuild the look of any asset. The RTX Remix creator toolkit Early Access is coming soon.
The RTX Remix runtime captures a game scene and replaces assets at playback while injecting RTX technology, such as path tracing, DLSS 3, and Reflex, into the game. Already, mod developers have been using the RTX Remix runtime from Portal With RTX to create experimental ray-traced scenes in numerous classic games.
The RTX Remix runtime is available on GitHub today with a permissive MIT license. Modding is all about community, and providing an open-source RTX Remix runtime will help empower mod developers to expand Remix compatibility to even more classic PC games, alongside broadening the types of mods that can be made when the RTX Remix creator toolkit is released.
