Installing AquaRay

DeferredShadingRenderer.h

• Add two new Function Declarations from Here

DeferredShadingRenderer.cpp

• Modify If-Else block adding AquaRayPrepareRayTracing() call
• Modify If-Else block inside if (IsRayTracingEnabled()) block
• Replace AnyRayTracingPassEnabled() Function
• Replace HasRayTracedOverlay() Function
  All From here

AquaRay.cpp

• Create a new folder called "AquaRay" inside Engine\Source\Runtime\Renderer\Private\RayTracing
• Add a new .cpp file from here into Engine\Source\Runtime\Renderer\Private\RayTracing\AquaRay
• The full path should look like this: Engine\Source\Runtime\Renderer\Private\RayTracing\AquaRay\AquaRay.cpp

Shaders

• Create a new folder inside Engine\Shaders\Private\RayTracing
• Place all shaders from here. The full path should look like this: Engine\Shaders\Private\RayTracing\AquaRay\AquaRay.usf (and the rest)

Launching the Project

• I recommend using the Sample Project to get Familiar with The Renderer
• If Unreal Engine complains about Project Version, Select "Convert in place"
• When Loaded (hopefully without explosions), load the emptytestmap level
• In this version the Renderer is force-Enabled by a console command "r.RayTracing.AquaRay=1". That is temporary. I dont recommend Disabling it in this Build
• After that select the AquarayController Actor and in the Properties Panel click the "Apply Settings" to Initialize Scene
