...The RTX Performance Test doesn't work here (with RTX 2080 Ti) :

Looks like RTX is not enabled, please make sure you have a driver installed of at least the versions mentioned at the beginning of the release post.

No, RTX now is really useless thing. I tested it in many scenes and yes i checked on RTX in device settings.

Could you please share your driver version? Enabling the flag in the device settings will just make use of RTX if the driver has support for it.

Man, this has to hold the record for first-day posts on a release, no!?

So okay--- Is this the successor to 2019.2 XB3?

I tested the hair - excuse me, HAIR Material - and I still can't seem, without bringing roughness to 0, to get the Jet black I was hoping to get. Also there is no Opacity node....so not sure if anything was added changed.
And then, was also hoping for a 1.5 Up-sampling mode. We still only have 2x and 4x.


PS - I tested denoiser on 2 scenes and it does work, with path tracing.
But, Despot, it happens to you, say, even with a simple primitive in a super-default lighting scene? Curious if that could be Nvidia driver related, but just a random guess

Thanks team

Spotlight is affecting DIRT texture.

Dirt in 2020 can consider other objects and I think this is an unexpected result from the spectron light cone. We will fix it.

hostage seems to be the right word for this scheme...i don't like it as well...

in my case I DONT need other plugins....just the standalone and 3dsmax ones...

Could you access the 399 Euros upgrade page? I am having issues to get there.

I can yes..but its 499..not 399

I think the amount of 500 to pay immediately for one upgrade is big, there should be an upgrade function to 2018 then to 2019, it is much easier to pay 100-150 euros than 500 at once

@Goldorak... can you please consider this? it makes a lot more sense... I believe that many of us, including me, we NOT able to update earlier because of ongoing jobs..and so to upgrade in mid project is a risky thing to do... at least that was my case... thats why I kept testing only demo versions up until now...

Awesome features...Can't wait to see them implemented in the plugins in 2 years time.

That is some expert-level, ninja-worthy shade, @mikeadamwood. My compliments.

That's quite cool actually. Should be a feature!
