It is THE technology of the moment. Ray Tracing is talked about when it comes to an AAA game or state-of-the-art graphics cards. And as we know, nVidia is a partner of Giants Software, the game's introduction video is there to remind us at each launch. It was therefore logical that the developers ended up integrating the famous reflection effects specific to RTX rendering. It is finally in the form of a patch, downloadable at the end of the article, on PC only, which you can make FS 19 compatible. The first ingame tests show a slightly improved rendering, with reflections on the bodies of traffic cars, and on the roads in rainy weather. At the beta stage, the developers announce that they will go further for the final version and that all vehicles using the metal shaders will benefit from this visual boost.
Compatible materials
Your PC must be equipped with an nVidia RTX (20 or 30 series) or AMD card from the 5000 XT series. As with most games using this technology, the Radeons seem a little more "behind" compared to the RTX, more comfortable. Once the patch is installed, start the game with the -GiantsFool command (for example: "C: \ Program Files \ Giants Software \ Farming Simulator 19 \ FarmingSimulator2019.exe -GiantsFool" for the default installation)
