Some kind of new 3D real-time engine
-
16 Apr 2010Hey, people, just run upon this interesting link!
http://unlimiteddetailtechnology.com/description.html
What you think of it? It is stated of this thing being some sort of new semi-engine of real-time 3D. Technology called mass connected processing
States as being capable of showing something very detailed none of current real-time engines could grasp. -
16 Apr 2010Interesting. I'd like to see a video of it in action - the clips didn't seem to work for me
-
20 Apr 2010Curious if there will be some sort of free learning edition to this stuff
-
20 Apr 2010im not even sure if this way of producing gamed will be practical for the next couple of years.
Its hell of a nice technology though.
I remember delta force 1-2 had a voxel engine for terrain
looked really nice at that time -
Gotmilk 228 posts20 Apr 2010I saw the same thing posted over at unity3d forums. They have somewhat mixed feelings about it. Some are even claiming that it is a scam for venture capitalist. We just have to wait and see.

Jonathan 480 posts08 May 2010It's sorta interesting I 'pose, but there are so many ideas for "next gen" (years from now, probably 2013 at the earliest),
like sparse voxel octree rendering, which some of these ideas are used "this gen" but to a lesser degree,

raytracing

and then hybrids between the various approaches
Either way, it'll come down what suits next generation hardware, IMO. -
08 May 2010Was just thinking that perhaps militarists and some NASA folks already enjoy ride of such technologies. Can't bring facts "on the table" but have such guess anyway. What stop those technologies to be inplemented almost now? They do show those demo vids, things looking to work. At least with videocards they mention like Georce GTX where was shown this head skull volume real-time rendering. Its of course no joke to make such engines to work but still, is it profit motif hidden underneath?
