Unreal Engine's NVIDIA RTX (NVRTX) has also been updated with Unreal Engine 5.6.1, RTX Mega Geometry, and performance and image-quality enhancements via Restir PT. The Bonsai Diorama demo showcases RTX Mega Geometry, Restir PT, and DLSS 4 technologies. Furthermore, the updated IGI SDK—which powers features seen in the demo—includes Magpie Flow for real-time, multilingual speech conversion, multi-lobe adapters for rapid model tuning, and CUDA support for Vulkan graphics backends to optimize workloads. The latest IGI SDK and plugins are available now.
