what exactly is the tech here? seems more like some clever rigging to me.. assigning verts to bones is pretty old..and this is just eyes.. i see no tech here to warrant the term "tech demo", they would have to be showing off tech.. there is a skin shader, i guess thats tech but i have seen better.. i don't understand.. its…

If you want to write an essay about how awesome the tech is, go right ahead. It's not my job. The title of the thread is in response to the "crossing the valley" comment, not about the engine. Despite the extremely limited scope of the video, we already know the tech can allegedly do some cool stuff. If you want rants…

did anyone mention that the tech demo was labeled as a raw mocap dump and a realtime 3d? probably more than a little premature to use that as marketing material given all the aforementioned problems... but if that really is a raw dump, then yeah, i'd say it's promising.
Considering most studios are well on their way to beta in the time it has taken this studio to crank out two tech demos. I really hope they aren't wasting their time trying to bridge a gap when they could have just cleaned up what they had and it would have delivered the same emotional punch in a much more realistic way.…
James, I've gotta agree with Ferg on this. There is a tonne of nitpicking and people are ignoring that there is some impressive tech being shown. Seems utterly rediculous to ignore something new and impressive because of a silly claim someone made. Esspecially when this video is not hitting the uncanny valley so far as I…
