Unlimited Detail in games
Came across this new computer graphics rendering technique yesterday called Unlimited Detail. Since then I have been thinking of various possible uses. I hope it takes off in some form, so much potential - fully destructive environments with unlimited graphics detail, real materials, carving 3d models like an evolved Zbrush etc
Looking forward to finding out more and seeing where this goes, just wonder why I have only just heard of it. Watch the video to see what im talking about.

GPU giants have been trying to block this technology advance because it's diffuses the aggressive research and funding behind traditional polygon developments rendering their research pointless.
If you're a game developer, industry giant or investors then please look at Unlimited detail at their website and get in contact with them.

Volition did deformable terrain in Red Faction on the PS2 and the recent multi platform release of Red Faction Guerilla has a version of destruction on the buildings. Sure, it's limited by GPU usage but I'm sure on the PC it's a lot closer to life.Also, you've always got Attak!

Attack, best game on here...As for this. I cant wait until someone implements a fully destructable environment with millions of those little alien animal things.

I have Red Faction: Guerilla and the latest Bad Company has pretty realistic destruction. This is very interesting though, it would be a shame if it was lost to history.

Damn. That's all I have to say. Except that unlimited detail is awesome. I wish you could kill buildings... That are mad of creepy alien things, like dolphinator said.

Glad people are finding ways of talking about Attak ;)Few notes on this - in another video they talk about if nintendo let them put it on the Wii they could get better graphics out of it then the PS3 can do - imagine thatOh and on destruction - ive always wanted to make games with it in, our next game has destruction.
