THIS VARIANT OF VANILLA RTX IS DISCONTINUED!
Reason: You can now achieve the same visuals as this pack by flattening either Vanilla RTX or Vanilla RTX Normals through the Vanilla RTX App — Here's how:
Set surface normal intensity of either Vanilla RTX or Vanilla RTX Normals to 0% and press Tune, which will achieve virtually the same visuals as this variant. This pack no longer receives updates to conserve developer's time.
For the most up-to-date information about enabling ray tracing, see Vanilla RTX's page.
While using the Pure variant, you still get all of the correct & consistent materials and enhancements from Vanilla RTX—the only difference is block surfaces which now appear fully flat, this is visually closer to vanilla graphics modes, which to some players is a more faithful representation of Vanilla RTX.
Think of it as the regular pack, stripped of all of its bumpiness!
