Ray Tracing Second Life

[Amunication]

I think i speak for everyone when i say "what the fuck is this shit?!!!"

[monademaidi1412]

could anyone please tell me where i can find this code.

[cinema2k]

cool



[KirillStaRRR]

this is shit ...

[MatheusMK3]

How you did that man???

[MuffinMan9k]

Interesting. I'm actually quite curious as to how you managed to do Ray Tracing with LSL... As far as I know, there are no functions for finding the color of a specific point. How DID you do it? O.o

[Jimmg2point0]

Assuming he made his own.

[Interleap]

what is raytracing

please explain in 5 lines

[TopGunMan]

Fuck You.

Go Google

It You Lazy

Son Of A

Bitch.

[Interleap]

I fucking did.

[b00n707]

lol

[TopGunMan]

then fucking awesome.

[cyberwaffles]

ray tracing is a technique for generating an image. the quality is so high that it actually looks real if used correctly. however, because of this photorealism quality, it requires an ass load of computing power and modern day consoles and even PC's aren't capable of handling ray tracing to full potential. look up some more on it, it's really interesting. the graphics will literally make your jaw drop; too bad we won't be seeing it any time soon in gaming.

[Interleap]

OK thanks I will check some videos on youtube.

[Interleap]

lol it takes 3 ps3 consoles just to render a car in a small enviroment.

This is the video PS3 Real-time Ray-tracing its on right.

[cyberwaffles]

this ain't the same video but i know what you're talking about. one video has six, another has 3.

however, i heard that killzone 2 supports a little bit of ray tracing although i doubt it.

[Interleap]

The lights in Killzone 2 look so nice.

[cyberwaffles]

true, i love the lighting in the game.

@interleap

True it did take 3 ps3's to run that demo. But Each ps3 was only using 2 SPU's out of the 6 SPU'S available on a single ps3. So that demo could have been rendered in realtime on a single ps3 if those people had a ps3 SDK (dev kit) to program for all spus.

[Halfback1990]

@Metallica737 i can render realtime on my pc :D

[SLGeek]

how u made a ray tracer, i tried and failed :(

[radkid1]

good and bad the bad make ezer for attack sim the good make ez run script

[Torley]

Very cool! Someone should compile a collection of Mono demo vids, already (incl. Conway's Game of Life and the Mazes ones which've been circulated).

[manzed]

i want mono!

[AWPPoductions]

yes nice show where do you pick one up at in game?

[sldanielvoyager]

Wow, this is great!

[JimPurbrick]

Yes, the LSL script is doing the ray tracing on the simulator and then changing the colours of the 70x70 grid of cubes that make up the display.

[AySz88]

Just to be clear, you're using the server to raytrace, and then throw the pixels onto a big array of prims?

[TenebrousPau]

Very nice demo sir.

[JimPurbrick]

Mono is first, then LSL the colours are randomly assigned by the ray tracer.

[csven]

So which is which? And what accounts for the color variation?
