    Nice. I think the code is at https://github.com/NVIDIAGameWorks/rtx-remix for those interested.

    I had played with version 0.0.1 trying to get it to work with https://www.freeallegiance.org/, but ran into issues. I'm glad to see they are improving the documentation. I'll have to try it out again.

  • three-gpu-pathtracer

    Path tracing renderer and utilities for three.js built on top of three-mesh-bvh.

  • Project mention: CUDA Accelerated Raytracer | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-06-15

    Yeah this is neat but it is 90% not done and that is being generous.

    For a open source path tracer with a full glTF compatible material model and lighting and runs in the browser check out:
