Wow. I actually found something that makes the fan on my Core2 Duo speed up. :-o
Bloody cool.
cv643d: I hate these ~150 KB demos that in reality is much larger.
Demos aren't about being practical -- they're about being cool, and this is DEFINATELY cool.
Faster load times would be nice, but most demos don't come close to this kind of detail and weigh in at 5-10MB.
Now, a hybridization of procedural synthesis (for normal maps and detail textures) and regular artwork (for main textures) is what would allow mainstream software to pack a huge wallop on detail without requiring a 5GB installation. Hopefully, other developers will pick up on this.
Of course, that never seems to happen. :angry:
Nothing more lamer than that.
Well, until Amiga gets a decent 3D API with drivers, Windows will continue to be the more bestest platform of choice.
