Ray Tracing can be integrated as part of Vulkan, it's not specific to any Card Type, ie GTX 20x0 Series.

If Done through Vulkan, AMD GPU's starting w/ GCN1.2 Support Hardware Ray Tracing Already. (starting w/ 500 Series and Vega GPU's)

 

If a GPU Doesnt Support Hardware Ray Tracing, the feature will not be used, or it will be calculated by the CPU depending on how it's implemented into the Graphics Renderer.

F-14 Heatblur info on reddit.

 

Carrier and Ground Crew

 

It should be (Carrier available). It's already mostly functional (can take off and land, and it looks fantastic), barring some important bits like FLOLS.

 

Ground Crew

Probably not at release. We've made some quite detailed deck crew models long ago (you may recall screenshots), so this is planned, but meanwhile ED also announced plans for detailed carrier deck ops a while ago. My guess is this is still many months away though.

 

Would be really cool to see the shooter etc. while doing a cat launch of course, we want to make it happen, but also not duplicate work ED is doing.

 

F-14 Weapons

Off the top of my head, we already have MK-81/82/83/84 (and MK-82AIR), Zuni rockets, MK-20 cluster bombs, GBU-10/12/16/24, parachute flares, BDU-33 .

Question will Path tracing be somthing we see as well in the future, or would that be different, as in redundant, financially prohibitive or etc. thanks
