World position offset simulation for ray traced instanced static meshes (beta) Allows ambient motion of foliage like trees and grass. Inexact Shadows (beta) Deals with potential mesh mismatches of ray traced and raster geometry. Enables approximations that improve performance in the management of ray tracing data.

RTX Global Illumination (RTXGI) Leveraging the power of ray tracing, the RTX Global Illumination (RTXGI) SDK provides scalable solutions to compute multi-bounce indirect lighting without bake times, light leaks, or expensive per-frame costs. Version 1.1.30 allows developers to enable, disable, and rotate individual DDGI volumes.

By adding a simple cache to it, we made it so that light map texture coordinates are only computed when there's an actual change to the geometry of the mesh. Here you can see the Sponza demo model, with baked direct lighting, and the corresponding light map: Note that this first pass is not taking occlusion into account yet.
