However, ray tracing is heavy math. Expect a performance drop depending on your hardware:

That clock had never received light before. Not in any version. rtgi 0.17.0.2

The architecture of RTGI 0.17.0.2 relies on rendering data extracted directly from the software execution pipeline. Unlike native hardware-accelerated ray tracing (such as NVIDIA RTX or AMD DXR) which utilizes dedicated BVH (Bounding Volume Hierarchy) structures built from true 3D scene geometry, RTGI functions strictly within .
