However, there will be files that will no longer look the same because how Photoshop handles certain materials differently.įor example > Photoshop went from Specular-Glossiness to Metal -Roughness The Ray Tracer has not changed, however, the material model has changed and Photoshop tries to match previous versions as close as possible.
