Entropy Zero 2: A New Look with RTX Remix Path Tracing Mod
3 min readEntropy Zero 2, a Half-Life 2 total conversion mod, has recently received an upgrade with the RTX Remix Path Tracing Mod. This mod brings a new level of visual enhancement to the game, showcasing stunning graphics that are sure to impress even the most discerning gamers.
The latest build of the mod includes new assets that have been created by the modder. While there is still work to be done, the WIP screenshots look impressive, with improved lighting and textures that bring the game to life.
For those interested in trying out the mod, the latest beta version is now available for download. However, it is important to note that not all versions of the game are compatible. C2_1 and C5_1 have been reported to cause the game to crash at launch. C3_1, on the other hand, is fully playable. C0 and C1 can also be considered “playable,” though they do have some bugs.
Entropy Zero 2 is not the only game to receive an RTX Remix Path Tracing Mod. In January, several other titles were showcased, including Tomb Raider 2, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Manhunt, Dark Messiah of Might and Magic, and Garfield Kart RTX Remix. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas RTX Remix and Need for Speed: Most Wanted, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 4, and Midnight Club 2 were also featured in a recent article.
Path Tracing Mods for older titles have also gained popularity. Modders have released early demos for their Path Tracing Mods for Tomb Raider, Max Payne, and Call of Duty 4. It is important to note that the COD4 Mod is a “proof of concept” demo and does not look particularly great. The RTX Remix Mod for Max Payne, on the other hand, looks amazing. Other notable Path Tracing Mods include those for Call of Duty: World at War, Doom 2, Quake, Half-Life, and Serious Sam.
