I have to admit I was wrong about this being an easier way to try path tracing on Minecraft. I followed all the steps in preparation late last night:
1) Owned Minecraft Win10
2) Updated to Nvidia 'Day 1' Minecraft driver
3) Downloaded Xbox Insider Hub and opted into the Minecraft Beta
Woke up today all excite to play, and then found out you have to go
back into the Insider Hub and opt into the newly listed RTX Beta, which is stuck on pending. This is way more convoluted than the SEUS PTGI setup. Oh well, wish in one hand, shit in the other. Just gotta wait now.
*EDIT* The new RTX Beta opt-in finally went through. Took about 30 minutes. Had to uninstall and reinstall the Minecraft App to get the RTX Beta to work. Pain in the ass, but I'm happy it working now.
