Rendering movies with realtime engines.
I've been wondering about this, but are there any short movies rendered using real time engines? I'm not talking about traditional machima, where the asset specs are kept relatively close to those of the games that use the engine, but something high(er) poly, with 'actual' animation (by that I mean entirely animated… -

[ QUOTE ] personally i found the crytek machinima stuff entertaining, in a probably unintended way hope that's not the kind of quality to aim for. in order to save rendertime i'd rather do it the other way around, match my prerendered output to the looks of a game engine to save rendertime and remain being able to use all… -

"Far beyond the usual blow-away-the-monster visuals, machinima offers photo-realistic cinematic computing where scenes, sets, and characters can be pre-visualized and rendered in real time, and where the mood and perspective can be rapidly changed." LAFF. -

Why not just use video card hardware accelerated rendering, like Gelato: http://www.nvidia.com/page/gz_home.html That way there's no conforming to game standard, importing, setting up scripts, animation, etc in game format. Camera work typically sucks in getting to game engine as well. The main problems with using a game… -

Re: Rendering movies with realtime engines.
This has been on people's minds for years. I've even spoken to some people about doing this in a production capacity. If you consider the beefy systems you can get these days, you may be able to set up a relatively complex scene. It's something I've been interested in for years, and I encourage you to find out as much… -

This is the closest thing to what you are talking about that I can think of. http://www.ati.com/gitg/promotions/crytek/index.html -
Re: Rendering movies with realtime engines.
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] some machinima reaches this quality level you speak of. not all machinima is made up of choppy movements from already existing game charcters. i've seen some that are very high quality all with custom animations and content. [/ QUOTE ] Well that's what I was wondering, as I've only seen those with game… -

ATI's X1K Ruby and ToyShop demos looks pretty neat and run realtime. http://www.ati.com/designpartners/media/edudemos/RadeonX1k.html
