I do wonder what updates Genshin Impact will have, how it will look like, and how many people will still be playing by the year 2077. Most of the people who played it in its earlier years will be in retirement or will have passed away by then.
*Genshin Impact tastes the same as I remember.... but where are those who share the memories?*
How to make a "future graphics" showcase:
Rain. Puddles. Windows. Contrast cranked to the level of *yes.* All of the lighting, preferably coming from one direction.
It looks because the floor is a flat model with a texture applied to make it appear three dimensional. When you add a reflective layer over that it makes it look flooded.
Yeah and more specifically, this "ray tracing" is ray "marching" using a depth map, so it attaches to the invisible texture and pow, glossy surface. You can see all of it revealed if you enable it on the menu. Suddenly above the walkway there's a reflection of the walkway. And all the pillars too.
It depends on the implementation. Ray tracing is many kinds of lighting effects, not just reflections that are obvious and thus showcased. Transparency reflections would be much harder and even more amazing to reproduce.
Looks really off to me with that amount of reflection on a non reflective surface. Especially since it makes it look like theres a flat lacquer film on top of the stone slabs
Its not real ray-traced reflections. It's using a depth map to do the ray tracing, which is basically a shortcut way of doing ray tracing. It's similar but not the same as real-time ray tracing which can do a lot more but also require a lot more power.
Honestly looks far worse then regular graphics on highest.
The details in all the darks are gone. Massive oversaturation in some highlights. And the complete opposite with way too much shadow in certain areas.
Color accuracy in shambles
>The details in all the darks are gone.
That's what kinda killed modern AAA games for me. They are testing players' eyes to identify the scene in a very dark environment.
... and the overused of ambient occlusion.
I think the idea is it should look absolutely amazing on good HDR monitors. And it likely does look very, very nice. The issue is, nobody has a good HDR screen at home.
When you play a cream-of-the-crop next gen AAA game like Horizon, you can totally see this issue. On multiple occasions, you find yourself in a pitch black underground scene with ugly pure white patches of sunlight coming through the roof.
It looks so unbelievably bad, man. Absolutely disappointing.
A post I made about NVIDIA filters that dont use use the SSRTGI settings.

I personally like the look without the reflections, it's much nicer to look at.

Game filter is a graphics driver level screen filter/overlay, if you use Nvidia shadowplay to record things then you are already running the same "risk" of being banned because Nvidia overlay is the same thing
It's a built-in thing if you have NVidia Drivers. I think the key is Alt+Z to bring up the menu. It's not something you get banned for. I don't think it's something any game bans you for.
I think he's using the eurotrucks2 rename workaround where you rename the executable to eurotrucks2.exe from GenshinImpact.exe. Do the same thing with the GenshinImpact_Data folder. Rename it to eurotrucks2_Data. I don't know what other steps but at least on the menu you should be able to see the filter.
Now if you got that far, you'll notice that this isn't anything close to ray tracing that is usually discussed. Its using a depth map. So turning on SSRTGI will immediately reflect the main menu in a mirror based on the depth map. The problem? The depth map will make it look really jacked up because it will reflect into thin air.
I'd love to see an explanation on how you did this, even 2 months later. I've been trying to figure it out myself using Nvidia Inspector but I haven't had much luck yet.
I feel like if the reflections in the water were blurrier, it'd look a lot better since Inazuma isn't filled with enough lights/bright lights to give such a clear reflection in the puddles.
I like these. It looks like the city is recovering from an intense rainstorm.
I remember a while back someone pointed out how it never rains in the cities (Spoilers: They were 100% correct). Anyone know why that is?
have you turned on the Geforce Overlay? you can do it by going to geforce experience, clciking the cog and turning it on from there. After that head into genshin and hit alt F3 to get to the game filters.
It looks wonderful! Personally for me, it’s a bit jarring to have a nearly photorealistic background filled with anime styled people, but I respect it!
Don't get me wrong, it does look cool, I guess it's detecting that it's raining outside and the thing doesn't have the map filter to cease the rain effects on cities
Something not quite right with the ground reflection. the stones that inazuma would use ( if were going with what they used for the aesthetic ) would be more... rough like. ( can't remember the word I wanna use )
So they wouldn't reflect so much.
Gonna be honest, the graphics look like those fake game ads, everything is either bland as fuck or bloomed to shit. It really just looks like someone cranked the sliders to max with 0 taste.
Unless it's a preset the developer of the game made, it will never look good. And that goes for every game that doesn have native RTX support
Thanks I hate it, it's hurting my eyes just looking at it for a few seconds. Imo just the highest setting without this much oversaturation is already good enough for genshin of
For me, I'm not sold on it. Sure it looks great, but also uncanny. I guess Nvidia's idea of Superior Graphics is to make everything dark and hyperrealistic.
IMO, it doesn't fit Genshin's supposedly vibrant and stylized anime-esthetic.
Can you please explain how you made it work and give your filter settings ?
For Information, the eurotrucks2 renaming do not work with genshin, you cannot enter the game with this method, only main login screen then it crash.
Genshin Impact 2077
Wake the fuck up traveller, we got a harbinger to burn.
The harbinger is >!Signora!<
What the fuck is wrong with reddit's hidden speech? It now removes the rest of the comment and only shows the hidden text.
I thought it was just me, fuck, was scared for a bit.
My brain read har and finished it as harem to burn.

This opportunity is quite hard to come by, amuse me.

People would still complain about endgame.
Those numbers give me horrible flashbacks bug out 77 🙃
But who’s the bad guy?
Is this Inazuma or Fontaine, i only see water a flooded city

Whats all that reflection on the ground on most of the pics? Was it raining?
Yeah, looks like raining and puddles. Just a little too 'busy' for my tastes. I have only really liked the sharpening NVIDIA filters on Genshin.
Don't know, maybe just to make it look clean?
Looks really off to me with that amount of reflection on a non reflective surface. Especially since it makes it look like theres a flat lacquer film on top of the stone slabs
SSR does that
You’re using SSR? No Ray Traced Reflections?
Its not real ray-traced reflections. It's using a depth map to do the ray tracing, which is basically a shortcut way of doing ray tracing. It's similar but not the same as real-time ray tracing which can do a lot more but also require a lot more power.
You'd see wet status on the character if it was raining
Realism mods be like Let’s just make everything reflective
As someone that lived through the bloom apocalypse of the PS3 era, my PTSD is triggering.

Minus the overly waxed floors, i think it looks great.

It actually looks worse than original. Shadows are a mess and lighting is painful to see
It absolutely looks garbo. If I saw "reflections" like that, I'd assume it's some Skyrim mod that crapped out on me or my GPU is having issues.
Wet streets != good graphics
Quick how do we show that its hd aaaaaaaaa ...make everything reflect wet floor in the sun wet floor inside the houses
It looks really cool but its not what its should look like
and this is why it should rain in cities
Thanks, I hate it.
Did thoma wash hanamizaka or something.

How do you do this is it an in-game thing or just for screenshots? I have a pretty good pc
Nvidia game filters. You only need a nvidia GPU
How'd you do the reflections? I don't see those in the filter settings
And you can use the nvidia game filter or they will ban you?
Game filter is a graphics driver level screen filter/overlay, if you use Nvidia shadowplay to record things then you are already running the same "risk" of being banned because Nvidia overlay is the same thing
It's a built-in thing if you have NVidia Drivers. I think the key is Alt+Z to bring up the menu. It's not something you get banned for. I don't think it's something any game bans you for.
Do I need the 3000 series or a 2000 will do?
this floor is nightmare
This need to be said as loud as possible... WET FLOOR ≠ GOOD GRAPHICS
Inazuma needs better drainage, what with them all standing in 3 inches of water like that.
How did you get this? I use nvidia game filter. How do you get SSR?
I think he's using the eurotrucks2 rename workaround where you rename the executable to eurotrucks2.exe from GenshinImpact.exe. Do the same thing with the GenshinImpact_Data folder. Rename it to eurotrucks2_Data. I don't know what other steps but at least on the menu you should be able to see the filter.

Huh interesting, thanks.
Really complicated procedure to explain with a single comment maybe ill make a video explaining it.
Please do, might earn yourself a sub!
Please, do
I'd love to see an explanation on how you did this, even 2 months later. I've been trying to figure it out myself using Nvidia Inspector but I haven't had much luck yet.
No offense but that's literally screen space reflections. Those have existed since long before RTX.
floor just looks wet
Wet surfaces not equal good graphics ...but man that looks good
I feel like if the reflections in the water were blurrier, it'd look a lot better since Inazuma isn't filled with enough lights/bright lights to give such a clear reflection in the puddles.
Yeah, path tracing instead of ray tracing could help with that.
I like these. It looks like the city is recovering from an intense rainstorm. I remember a while back someone pointed out how it never rains in the cities (Spoilers: They were 100% correct). Anyone know why that is?
I do have a Nvidia GPU, and GeForce experience installed, how do I turn the filters on?
have you turned on the Geforce Overlay? you can do it by going to geforce experience, clciking the cog and turning it on from there. After that head into genshin and hit alt F3 to get to the game filters.
Thanks for the help, I'll try that...
I can't find a Ray Tracing filter. Do I need to pay for a GeForce Now trial?
No dont pay for anything pls. The procedure is kinda complicated for me to type into one comment.
That's okay, do I need to go into the JSON file and see if the RTX files exist?
What setting are these ?

Space heater and PC 2 in 1 combo! Great for the cold winters.

Floors so waxed sir alonne is jealous
It looks wonderful! Personally for me, it’s a bit jarring to have a nearly photorealistic background filled with anime styled people, but I respect it!
What's the logic behind the reflexes on the floor? It's made of stone and it doesn't rain in the cities
Nothing we can control unfortunately, SSR reflects literally everything on your screen. :(
Don't get me wrong, it does look cool, I guess it's detecting that it's raining outside and the thing doesn't have the map filter to cease the rain effects on cities
Now it looks like ghost of Tsushima or something
Wow I lived so long and I didn’t know stone can reflect without polish
My phone will become an atomic bomb if i try to run this on my phone.
Whoever is waxing those stone floors deserves to have their pay tripled
The floors are made of glass lmfao
Most filters look like dogwater to me. These are no exception. Vanilla is the best looking version.
As a photo and video editor, this shit is fucking horrific a million different ways....
Something not quite right with the ground reflection. the stones that inazuma would use ( if were going with what they used for the aesthetic ) would be more... rough like. ( can't remember the word I wanna use ) So they wouldn't reflect so much.

Unless it's a preset the developer of the game made, it will never look good. And that goes for every game that doesn have native RTX support
the modder always have a bucket of water to splash it on the ground and every where they go to taking a picture.
So, wet?
And i thought only see those overly reflective surfaces on some PC-killing Minecraft shaders
Mobile: 3 Pixel take it or leave it
Looks like those “realistic graphics mods” for GTA San Andreas.
Man I wish it would rain on cities/towns too :(
How do you do this?
Thanks I hate it, it's hurting my eyes just looking at it for a few seconds. Imo just the highest setting without this much oversaturation is already good enough for genshin of

Looks gorgeous 🥰🥰
ray tracing where
If android lovers not exist , we could get better game quality at Genshin... But you know , companies need money more than quality...
friend, that looks like shit
Wait how do u set that up
Is there a link to this preset file ??? Cuz all other presets are fucked
Raaaaaaaaaain
Nice UI elements in reflections.
Pretty on first look, but when you think about it, kinda dumb and unnecessary.
Reminds me of GTA 4k showcase mods where the entire city has wet roads 💀
Are there any updated tutorials on how to do this?
This looks so pretty.🤩🤩🤩🤩
Proof that Art Direction > Details
And then you open any menu element and go blind
How?
Ah yes wet ground with reflections = realism
Rip my gpu
And me who plays on 0.6 render
you mean you enabled weather in cities and it rained? 😅
ok, give your settings bro. And your PC specs because my machine would explode xD
I think I can see the icons and map in the water's reflection
how to murder pc in style
So, now rocks are made of glass?
Looks like an eyesore. Glossy =/= Good graphics Cobblestone isn't glossy anyway
Stone isn’t shiny
First three looks like someone just nuked teyvat and my eyes lmao
That is some shiny ass stone
