Universal Ray Tracing in Brutal Engine means any ray type can trigger any shader behavior, without limitations.

Whether it's a camera ray, a shadow ray, or a probe ray for volumetrics, the engine treats them with the same fidelity. This allows for complex effects like:

• Ray-traced subsurface scattering without approximation errors.
• Nested dielectrics (ice in water in glass).
• Custom AOV capture from any bounce depth.
