Wow that realtime rendering is SICK, but I bet so is your computer, could you tell me the specifications of the machine used for this demo?

[8monkeylabs]

@slice135, thanks! Toolbag runs on a wide variety of hardware, the most important component being your graphics card. I do believe our workstations were running on some GeForce GTX 260's at the time this footage was captured, but you should have no troubles with performance on cards dating back to the GeForce 7 series or ATI HD2000 series.

nice program, is it a game engine or a 3D Program ?

[8monkeylabs]

@Suprem3Gamer, Thanks for the kind words. Marmoset Toolbag is a standalone realtime renderer good for quick previews, material testing, and also includes screenshot and turntable export for final presentation.

What's the point of this? Couldn't someone just export to UDK or Crysis?

[8monkeylabs]

@WinterXL - It's personal preference -- same as the choice you'd make to load it up in UDK or CryEngine. The extra benefits of Toolbag is that it's bundled up in a nice little package that will give you your great rendering results super fast. It's also a step-up to those who aren't as well versed in an entire game engine or simply don't want to spend the extra setup time.
