[Solved] Direct3D 11 mesh issue

Post by Dennis »

I am running v436 vanilla only added Direct3D 11 as renderer to support my RX 6900 XT video card. This card comes without raytracing however it seems this renderer adds this by default to stock maps like agony on picture. Also health viral mesh has become oval instead of the original shape why? Is there a way to make it run without changing the look and feel this much as I see no ini file for this driver in my install? HELP!

The settings for the renderer are under [D3D11Drv.D3D11RenderDevice] in your UnrealTournament.ini.

The readme for the renderer says
A:My mesh from custom Unreal mod looks weird and infalted like a baloon ?
R:Add a line to tessellation.cfg file with mesh material name and a desirable factor. You can find mesh material's name in UnrealEd editor.
You can also change TessellateOnlyInCFG option to True.
You could try setting Tesselation=True to =False.

[I have the renderer installed but found that I can't use it.]

Sadly this is not helping on my problem meshes are still blown out of proportion for whatever reason and raytracing still forced on the surfaces :-(

What version of the d3d11drv.dll do you use? 1.6.1?
Post here your [D3D11Drv.D3D11RenderDevice] section of UnrealTournament.ini

Unfortunately, I have no way to check various settings D3D11 now.
Are you tried Tesselation=False? or TessellateOnlyInCFG=True as OjitroC advised?

Yes I have tried those settings but they do not work with this but the "raytracing" did go away with setting ShinySurfaces=false but fat blobby meshes are still there making it look very weird to play.

Have you tried setting the value for the JVial in tessellation.cfg to zero (or removing it) with the setting TessellateOnlyInCFG=True? At present the value for the health vial appears to be 0.6 which means that there should be some tessellation.

Just found the solution in the unrealtournament.ini D3D11 settings:

default:
Tesselation=True
TessDefaultFactor=0.300000

must be set both to:
Tesselation=False
TessDefaultFactor=0.000000

Thanks for the information on the solution Dennis. :tu:

Well, tweaking "unrealtournament.ini D3D11" settings (as OP suggested) does seem to work at first sight:

However, other rendering issues come up after tweaking, take a look at the arm. Additionally, weapons (first person view) turn way too shiny:

D3D11 still has a number of issues to work around; it's a nice renderer, though.

I do not get the hand issue on my PC? I have not seen anything unusual after latest settings but I will look closer to see if there are any strange things going on :-)
