Ferris here...second released 4k intro for me :) What started as a first attempt at Win32 Assembly coding turned out to be one of my favorite projects I've ever worked on. It's the first time I've ever felt I was pushing the limits of what I was using since back when I was involved in the Blitz Basic scene, and I'm quite proud of this...Huge thanks to Gargaj and his melodic wonder, which I feel has been a perfect fit for these visuals. . I always wanted to see a 4k with very coherent design, and since I saw Texas on the bigscreen at NVScene, I have yet to come accross this, which sickens me. We wanted a multipart 4k with progression, style, and flair, and I think all of us have accomplished that here :) . . As far as technical information, this intro uses one GLSL shader pair that calculates all timers, objects, camera angles, etc. For rendering it uses the Sphere Tracing algorithm (or rather, a beaten and pwned version of it) to display two objects at a time, but with some clever math alot more are achieved. Deformations are spatial, and this little beast also can calculate multiple reflection recursions, as well as realtime (NOT SCREEN SPACE) ambient occlusion, correct Phong lighting, fog, and also some more cute little tricks we're not willing to disclose yet :) . . Thanks to Psycho/LNS for his (however brief) explanation of the sphere tracing algorithm. : -- : -- : -- : -- : -- : -- : -- : -- : -- : -- : -- : -- : -- : -- : -- . Decipher on the keyboard! Well, as I write this Mentor is standing besides me. Funny thing this actually turned out to be a fucking wonderful collaboration between my mate Jake and me; and what's even weirder is, I stayed up 36 hours straight without any sleep to be able to at least make my contribution to this intro worthy. Then I came to Assembly (mind you, 600+km) like nothing has happened. . I had nothing in mind when I first decided to supply the sauce for the 4k but apparently you don't really need anything but some will and luck to come up with something. . Bah, I am pretty drunk already so I should cut it short. I am really satisfied with this intro and it's always nice to see that we can deliver much more than what can be expected from us (Okkie's reaction was something along "Wow, you kiddies from Youth Uprising actually raymarched in realtime?") :D. . Sure this is all nice and stuff, but each and every single one of you should know that we're here, and this is just a fraction of what we'll be delivering... Just so you know. // Eof .
