I think Grass is just a texture :( I don\'t think that autograss is impressive at all,Well thats just me ofcourse.

The autograss is animated, and much more than just billboarded. There is a randomized grid it uses to generate on. It's all adjustable with several commands to get a really tall/short/thick/thin grass, or sparse weeds...a very nice feature, which just sets off any outdoor map it's used in.

Yeah, hopefully the performance is fixable (probably due to me having anti-aliasing on though).

Like I said before, the underwater caustics are hot :)

If you read that website, Lex Luthor, you will read there that it took 5 Minutes to render that Image with one Single Glass-orb. Ask again in 10 Years when we have Quantum-driven GPUs... =D


1*2 <-- osbios, you were wrong... :P

Despite how much SauerBraten is improving,Version by version one day that feature could happen.

Well, they say that they achieved up to 22fps on non-trivial scenes. While this is still not playable, plus their "non-trivial scenes" are nothing compared to a map in sauerbraten (I guess), I doubt this will come earlier than cube 3. =)

Besides this – sauerbraten does not use raytracing, does it? I'm not the expert, but I think it uses Z-buffering. Does Photon Mapping work with Z-buffering? I don't know.

Never said Sauerbraten is doing (or would do) it I just highly doubt caustics are as far off as 10 years.

How's it made?

I'm assuming by the shadowed areas that its probably absorbing the color of the texture beneath it? Or is it just its own map?

The thing that scares me is if it's gonna slows down my PC :| Too many grass sprites would be bad but it looks cool,I hate it when my PC Won't support everything.

True, maybe.

Yes, you did not say it coming to cube, Lex Luthor did. I quoted the wrong post, sorry.
