Modder adds RTX path tracing to 1999's Grand Theft Auto 2
Modder gebdag released GTA2 RTX Remix, a mod that brings full path tracing, dynamic day-night cycles and 60 FPS frame generation to Grand Theft Auto 2 using Nvidia's RTX Remix technology. Because the 1999 game used legacy DirectDraw and early Direct3D APIs incompatible with RTX Remix, the mod includes a custom Direct3D 9 renderer built from two DLL files that translate the old graphics pipeline into something RTX Remix can process.
