Describe the bug
Star Wars Battlefront 2 (2005) (Steam), Sky Tuning's Sky Auto Detect not taking effect. When enabling Sky Auto-Detect to hide transparent objects in the distance between other geometry, said transparent objects as of Remix 0.5.0 no longer remain hidden. Hence always visible.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in Star Wars Battlefront 2 by enabling Sky Auto-Detect with “By Camera Position and Depth” under Sky Tuning, then inspect d3d9.log, NvRemixBridge.log, BattlefrontII_d3d9.log, and rtx.conf. Done means transparent windows or command-post holograms are hidden when behind non-transparent geometry, while the reported reproduction steps no longer show them through surfaces.
