NVIDIA plugins: Global Illumination (RTXGI) and DLSS not working with the last update .

 

Hi! With the new version 2022.1 when I enable the RTXGI plugin, and the plugin is in use, for example, drop the DDGI Volume to the scene and enable it via command in the ouput log Unreal for aximmetry suddently closes unreal without any message so any crash report to check, nothing. I have repeated the process changing the order but same. With the older version was just fine and I commonly use this plugin in my workflow. Anyone with this plugin working with latest version of Unreal for Aximmetry 2022.1? 

I have tried DLSS as well and the same problem after activate the plugin then switch to performance for example it suddenly Unrealo crashes. In  last version was just fine.

I have istalled the plugins as allways and i didnt get any wrong message on the process so installation seams to be good.

I have updated to the latest nvidia studio driver as well 512.15 

I have tested both plugins on the original Unreal editor and they work as expected.

I have rolled back to the las version of unreal for aximmetry 2021.4.2 that these plugins works to check and install all plugins again. Both plugins (DLLS and RTXGI) work on that older version. So should be something with the last update I guess. After check that plugins works with older versions of Unreal for Aximmetry I have updated again to the last version 2022.1 to check the problem again and yes, there it is! when the plugin is active (not just activated on the plugins tab) means in RTXGI, you have enabled raytracing, Directx12, and when send the command to activate the plugin (it supposed to see the probes for example) unreal crashes with ANY message even on the log. Same again with DLSS. 

Any help will be appreciated.. I like the idea of a sharpie image on the billboard when allow virtuals is active but i guess performance room is very important too in a live show and these plugins save me in many shows going from 90% percent (red) to a confortable 65% (green) GPU usage. So for the moment i will stay on the older version. Hope is something stupid Im missing but dont know what more can i do..

Using RTX3090 Ryzen9_5900 and very basic scenes with a floor, 5 cubes and 1 movable light.

Hi,

You are not missing anything, currently, the DLSS plugin doesn't work with the latest Aximmetry (2022.1). It has also been reported here: https://my.aximmetry.com/post/1752-scenes-stopped-loading-using-the-dlss-pl
We know DLSS is used by many and Aximmetry is working on a fix. We apologize for any inconvenience this is causing.

Warmest regards,

Hi,

As an immediate solution, we compiled the RTXGI and DLSS plugins on our own to make them work. Please ask for the working plugins at sales@aximmetry.com.

We are working on a long-term solution that will work with the original plugins.

Warmest regards,
