Re: Ray tracing with no reflections in battlefield V and AMD

Hey @el2ady24, RTX in Battlefield only supports NVidia cards, Battlefield V was never updated to work with the lates AMD tech.

  • ok, are you sure about this? what about other games that support ray tracing?

    A 100% sure on that, it would needs a game update for that to work. @el2ady24

    As far I'm aware Battlefield V is the only game that we have added a form of ray tracing support.

  • So, do you mean that other games that support ray tracing will run ray tracing with no problems via my amd rx 6800m ?

    You would need to ask them, I cant answer for what other company's have done with ray tracing support for their games and system or how it would be integrated with AMD version of it. @el2ady24

  • How is it possible then that some people have RT enabled without a problem on AMD cards? I have RX6700XT and have same issue as people mentioned here... but as far as I know, some people don't have that kind of issues?

    My problem looks like this

    @EA_Atic 

    Just to add info, RT IS WORKING ON AMD cards. As far as I can see, there seems to be problem with newer drivers. I've used DDU to uninstal my current driver, 21.8.2 and installed first driver ever released for my RX6700XT wich is 21.3.1... Guess what, RayTracing is working with this driver.

    So, if you all wanna use RT on AMD, tested driver that works with RT is 21.3.1, sadly this driver doesn't support RX6600XT GFX...

    Cheers...

    @el2ady24 @EA_Atic 

    Did a bit more testing today, latest drivers that work without a problem are 21.5.2, anything beyond that breaks RayTracing... Also none of the drivers work with M3 Infrared sniper in DX12.

    Cheers...

    So, I need to get 21.5.2 driver or older to get ray tracing to work. How am I supposed to get it?

  • When you select your GFX card on AMD support web page for drivers, you scroll a bit down, and before Knowledge Base should be written in blue Previous Drivers, you click on that... and viola...

    Cheers...

    The oldest driver is 21.6.2 I can't go anything beyond that, I need 21.5.2 or even older drivers

  • I see why there is no older gpu drivers for amd radeon rx 6800m, because the laptop was issued in June 2021. what shall I do now?

    @VVarlockSRB yah,3080 same issue. Maybe the whole DXR in BFV runs on the M3 bug😂 Now using 6900xt decided to turn off DXR

    @VVarlockSRB the ray tracking is a exclusive feature in BFV, even u enabled it in setting, it didn't have any effect on AMD GPU, as it is exclusive feature on Nvidia in BFV. u just waste ur (AMD)GPU resource only if u enabled it .

    u can enable DX12, but not ray tracing in game setting. AMD GPU have no ray tracing in this game even ur GPU can
  • @GVlXxf not sure if you know what you are talking about... DXR (DirectX Raytracing) is part of DX12 (DirectX 12) API and it is available on any DXR capable GPU, this means it is working on AMD RX6000 and nVidia RTX2000/3000 GPU's.

    And as I said before, here is video that shows DXR working properly on RX6700XT GPU without a problem:

    although it is on nvidia GPU, but the "off" is similar what u see in the game as u enable "ray tracking"( = none on AMD GPU). u will see what AMD GPU have no ray tracking(locked) in BFV. 

    Below is the demo of if there was ray tracking for AMD GPU, like the mirro reflection, it looklike what above video as. u dont have it , right in BFV? as it is exclusively on Nvidia( the game designed or using the ray tracking from nvidia, u know, it is something like a business partnership, pay exclusive part of engine...) 

  • @GVlXxf

    you are persistent I see... Well, here is small compilation of videos with DXR off, DXR on 21.5.2 and DXR on 21.9.3 on my RX6700XT... please explain to me how is it that RayTracing (or DXR) is working on my GFX car even it's not a nVidia card?

    @VVarlockSRB i just give ur info about DXR in the game, it is what i see and read from many source, u take it or not, it is true, AMD GPU have no ray tracking effect in BFV( it is exclusive on nvidia as i said)
  • @GVlXxf

    man, WTF is wrong with you?! I posted a video to prove it's working on AMD GPU and you all over again... all reviewers that are testing game engines and GFX tested BFV on both AMD and nVidia GPUs and none of those tester said it is not working on AMD... for Gods sake, read a bit this thread and see what even those people here have to say about DXR...

    And just to be clear DXR is DirectX implementation which nVidia by some strange coincidence renamed to RTX for their own good... DXR as is works on any GFX that is capable of RayTracing, doesn't matter what brand it is... if Intel comes with RayTracing ready cards, it'll work on those two...
    Stop living under a rock man, get out on the sun, see what's world doing...

  • @el2ady24 you have a 6800m, not sure but I think that is a 6700 for desktops... try downloading older driver for any RX card, choose 6700XT instead of yours and see if it'll work...

    @VVarlockSRBor u should read more top reply from EA moderator"...RTX in Battlefield only supports NVidia cards, Battlefield V was never updated to work with the lates AMD tech."

  • @GVlXxf
    you are aware that sometimes even stuff doesn't know what works and what doesn't... I've talked to him already, this is not the only thread where AMD graphics have bugs with DXR... just get over it, and go to your nVidia if you are so persistent, and don't bother replaying... I've posted you proof of working, and most guys that had same problems resolve those problems with older drivers...

    It doesn't wanna do this, whichever old driver I install, it gives me that error while launching any game detected amd driver 0.0.0. I don't know the reason behind this, shall I get windows 11 and try. I have two issues actually, the first one is that there is no real tracing reflections in bf v, the second one is that there is no recording and streaming tab in AMD Radeon software

  • Hello 🙂 I wonder if this is still the case? I played the single player wit Raytracing on with my new RX 6800 XT and it seemed to work ok, the graphics card was definitely. under a heavier load. But playing multiplayer, i ran into crashes. So i ended up turning off raytracing to see if it would fix it, and indeed it did.

    Now the gpu isn't even running at max clocks and even the cpu load seems lower! 

    I know this is an old thread but it was useful, and the main reason i tried turning raytracing off
