Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines RTX Remix Remaster Alpha 0.0.1 Released

Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines fans, here is something for you today. Modder ‘Safemilk’ has just released an alpha version of his RTX Remix Mod for this classic RPG.

As with all the RTX Remix Mods, this one will add Full Ray Tracing/Path Tracing to Bloodlines. However, since this is an alpha release, it may have numerous visual glitches. Also, it’s not representative of what RTX Remix can achieve. At least in its current state. I mean, even the modder calls it a “rough” release.

For instance, VTM:B uses the alpha channel as an emissive mask for many textures in the game. So, the modder did a rough pass of converting these to emissive maps and applying them to their corresponding textures. So now the things that should light up, should light up.

In short, you should temper your expectations. This mod is still in a very early dev stage. So, don’t expect it to look as polished as some of the other Path Tracing Mods we’ve shared. Still, this is a start.

... I think some of guys havent seen the video to the end

While it can look good sometimes, most of the time its baked in shadows and you cant see shit

"Remastering" old games with RTX, specially those from an era with no SSAO that had shadows baked in textures require adding many new light sources. The modder havent done this here.

Still, appreciate the effort.
