GalaxyMan, are you sure you are still human?
Anyways, thank you for your work you put into this (and sharing it with us).

Very good job man.
Since Turbulence is now only left and 4.9.2 came out recently, can you possibly update to 4.9.2 the release with everything?
Are there any major changes between 4.9.1 and 4.9.2? Or not worth it?

That is awesome, looking forward to playing around with Turbulence.

Well the bad news is, Turbulence won't make it in. It uses an older version of the PhysX SDK. And is not compatible. If Alexey or Mike sees this, is it possible for me to get a version of the Turbulence DLL's and libs that are compatible with UE4.9.1? So I can merge it in with the other GameWork techs.

I plan to release the 4.9.1 branch first, just because that is what I am using for my project currently, then I will look into upgrading it to 4.9.2, I suspect it shouldn't be too difficult for others to do if they don't feel like waiting

Okay new branch is now available: https://github.com/GalaxyMan2015/Unr...1_NVIDIA_Techs

Make sure to hit 'N' when asked to overwrite files when running setup.bat, and also rebuild "ShaderCompilerWorker" before running the engine. This contains VXGI, HBAO+, FLEX, HairWorks, and WaveWorks. Unless I get updated DLL's and LIB's, I won't be able to merge Turbulence.

I will look into what it will take to upgrade to 4.9.2 and upgrade accordingly.

Remember, any issues you experience with this branch are not the responsibility of NVIDIA. If you really want to help NVIDIA improve their techs then use their supported branch.

Also, as someone mentioned I should setup a donation option. Here it is: Donate There is absolutely no obligation to do so, but if you want to, it is welcome.

Thank you!
I hope you can get access to those DLLs and libs!

well compiling is failing cause of external reference with the D3D11 and it isn't asking to hit Y/N like it used to, it just goes straight to downloading so I am assuming it is overwriting something when doing that. Tried running as admin, changing where I put it on my pc etc..

Same error here, started with clean clone from github.

Just manually rebuild ShaderCompilerWorker by right clicking it on solution explorer and select rebuild. But it compiled just fine this time for me, without having to manually build it..
