- Unreal Engine 5? PlayStation 5? It's real, it's happening, and it's simply amazing. Alex Battaglia and John Linneman sit down to discuss the phenomenal new technology.
Note: The PS5 UE5 tech demo runs with dynamic resolution scaling and temporal upsampling. Typical rendering resolution is 1440p but it does vary. Read more in Rich's web article, with more detailed info direct from Epic Games: www.eurogamer.net/articles/di...

Fun Fact: John and Alex were rendered in real-time by Unreal Engine 5 for the making of this video.
Might be true
It rendered his English indecipherable!
(I'm kidding! His English is way better than my French)
such technology.
Whoa dude
John Alex - reverse it - coincidence ? Bush did 9/11
The best thing about this next-gen tech is it's actually cutting man-hours to make games. Ray tracing + global illumination changes save so much time in the lighting pipeline. Nanite makes the mesh / asset pipeline so much faster considering most of these assets are hand crafted at max resolution and then thrown through a blender multiple times before it gets to the game. The idea that someone might be able to model something in Z Brush and get it exported directly to Unreal Engine 5 and have it "just work" is amazing. This should cascade to level design as well as the engine will ideally handle the performance details and let the level layout artist slam down what they want.
Draanor agreed, it’s insane the changes this will make to the art pipelines. Having the engine just automatically build the lighting, and the removal of the need to retopologise and UV unwrap assets is crazy. It’s just insane
Yeah, agree. The graphic quality will be not really have big difference (aside from ray tracing), but (at least i hope) there will be big difference in level design, interactivity, etc from more simplified workflow
"it just works" ~ Todd Howard
@@Clarkey7163 its insane but its how it should of always been
I got really hard when they said assets could just be imported straight from Zbrush, this makes things so much easier for artists
2 most impressive things in the demo:
-her scarf didn’t clip through her body.
-the audio sound of the rocks falling.
Yup! I watched that scarf the entire demo, and not ONCE did I see any clipping at all! :D
This tech demo had more gameplay trailer than the assassin's creed gameplay trailer. talk about unreal.
tbh all tech demos should be like this
Thats why its called the *unreal* engine
All pre-rendered, that made zero sense.
DogTown you’re saying this is pre rendered?
Well, thats what tech demos are.
Shows more gameplay than Valhalla even though its a tech demo.
Ikr ? It was so awesome!!
well a tech demo without gameplay is useless
@@PixelTrooper and a "gameplay" trailer without actual gameplay is...
@Valhalla Rising You do know this demo was in 1440p 30fps right? If you didn't then you need to watch the video...lol
True
I can't wait to see a future dark raining city environment with a busy lively crowded atmosphere.
Like Cyberpunk 2077 for example, that's going to be amazing.
Cyberpunk 2077 remastered for next gen then
you mean ghostwire tokyo ? Hell yeah son !
Thinking of that Unreal Engine 4 tech demo?
You can get that from "Sleeping Dogs".
The biggest thing with this is how much load it takes off developers. Dev teams keep ballooning out of control with more and more complex visuals. This actually seems to focus on making things simpler for developers and reducing iteration time while increasing visual quality. A lot of technical steps are eliminated where you don't have to bake down your models or your lighting. Artists can use assets directly as they made them and the level designers and just throw them in and use lights directly. You might potentially be able to make AAA quality games with smaller teams with UE5 compared to the last 2 generations.
I guess, any game performance issue should be sorted out after running through the game engine's profiler
There are still a lot of what if's that would need to be answered first.
Authoring meshes with 35+ million tris is a pretty messy affair and would only create more headaches if you needed to rig it for animation or do a destruction pass. The improvements to lighting, rendering, and LOD management will help speed things up; but I'm not fully convinced it would speed up asset creation all that much.
IMO developers would be better off authoring their assets the same way but instead, utilize displacement for up-close detail like Bluepoint did on Demon Souls.
I'd love to be proven wrong, but it's too early to say rn
10:29 "next gen PC", you heard it here first bois, PC2 is soon to come.
Also, love the Crysis shrine.
I hope PC2 gets RRTX QUADRO TITAN X TI SLI graphics!
*cried on core 2 duo,2gb ram,intel hd graphic
I hope Next Gen PC2 gets Next Gen SSD and a controller with a rumble pak
@@jamezxh next gen pc will have an ssd in its gpu. Mark my words.
@@nomoredistraction329 Well they already have that. AMD created one with if I remember right a 1TB SSD onboard as a cache to greatly speed up certain applications like video editing raw files. It's beneficial in that it just stores all the data on board so the GPU doesn't have to ask the CPU for data, CPU get that data from memory, memory to fetch, memory to return, and then the CPU send every bit over the PCI pipeline to the GPU.
So yeah it just basically sent the entire raw file to the SSD onboard once then was done and was used a basically L4 Cache.
UE5 is actually a god-sent gift we devs have been aching for.
Imagine hours saved to adjust lights instead of baking Every Single One, just to realise your Renderfarm has 1 stupid slave that can't keep up and wreck the whole process.
Imagine not having needs to buy expensive assets and break them down or scaling down your megascan just to keep the game stay consistent while sacrificing so many beautiful edges and textures.
And Imagine tons of profits and man dates saved to produce games - even movies - under faster pace !
Thank you DF for another amazing analysis yet again !
If you save hours of worked hours, your costs fall, and also accordingly the price you can charge. Profits are directly linked to exploited human work. Less human work, less hours you can exploit, and less profits, in the average production and distribution economic cycle. This is basical Marx.
I was always curious, is a third party engine better than a in house one ?
Agreed with everything except the last sentence - you know that as we get more time-efficient in our processes, that time saved is never returned to the workers, it just means that the next project can start sooner. Expect to be exploited, just with better tools. Tons of profits for sure.
Honestly, I think the high poly tech is too good to be true for now. Don't you think?
I want to believe it's true but having billions of polygons with no restrictions and 8K textures and just running fine doesn't sound right.. hahaha
Leo M im not a developer but i am a producer. So im assuming devs will be credited for these games, surely being able to develop more games in less time would make for more advanced payments, and then more royalties in less time?

0:43 That Crysis shrine at the back is ever-present.
It always cracks me up when I spot it
Lol, I heard they are developing ray tracing for all , so who knows maybe they will Remake Crisis with thier new engine for next gen using new global illumination system just like what we saw in unreal 5
@@ludologian they are already making a crysis remastered with ray traced reflections. Its been officially announced a while back. And add far as global illumination goes, cryengine has had fully dynamic voxel ray traced global illumination since long ago. And obviously crysis remastered will use that. Unreal engine also tried to make a fully dynamic voxel ray traced global illumination, built they failed to do it without causing a massive performance hit, they even admitted this and also admitted that cryengine was able to do it. There is some nice competition going on here. I love it.
@@ludologian Whatever they do, cryengine had always a more realistic look than unreal engine.
@@ludologian
Crysis Remake wont need Unreal's implementation as CryEngine's solution is superior, Crytek's SVOGI is the only lighting technique that can get slightly close to RTGI (Ray Traced Global Illumination) , in the end, both are inferior to RTGI but Unreal's solution is far inferior, Crytek's solution is not THAT much worse.
If RTX 3000 series truly has a 400% performance boost in Ray Tracing over 2000 series, then all of these rasterization lighting techniques will essentially become obsolete, as the Ampere GPU's will allow devs to use fully RT'd lighting without losing almost any performance, so my conclusion is that all of these solutions will be almost exclusively console-aimed , particularly the PS5 since the XSX will be able to Ray Trace a lot better than the PS5.
I seriously hope Sony's first party devs figure out a way to achieve a similar end result as either UE5 or CE5 (almost impossible though).
The thing I find most fascinating about this--and it's the thing I didn't really expect--is how much easier developers' jobs will be with this tech (at least on some levels and in some departments). Not having to spend time baking lighting is huge, being able to load in assets without having to worry so much about LOD is HUGE. I had always worried that the more we increase fidelity, the more the budgets and development time will inflate. That's gotta still be the case to some extent but I hadn't considered how much these robust real time tools could actually save dev time.
Indeed, for several years now, one has been able to create 3rd-generation console games with only art tools (no programming skills required). And later this year, perhaps 4th-generation console games as well.
Perhaps by the 2030s, we'll have game design so automated that even AAA games will become ridiculously fast, easy, and cheap to produce!
Unreal 4 itself was already a quantum leap, especially for artists. The game I worked on prior to a UE4 title was on an in-house engine at a small indie studio so usability was utter gash compared to what things like the material editor afford you. Can't wait to get my mitts on this!
Demos are not the same as games. Game performance and demo performance are not 1:1. Games have hundreds or thousands of different scripts, models, animations, deformations etc. Dumping assets with millions of polys into games is not a good practice, and the processing power used on rendering objects with unnecessarily high poly-counts can be used elsewhere much better.
Would be nice if they could pump out twice as many games but if its this easy like they say i doubt it. As if nobody had this idea before, it probably brings difficulties they havnt mentioned that has put people off. Pc has had over 10 teraflop gpus for years and has had pc only games developed without using this method so its not due to gpu power.
And AAA developers like Activision/EA/Ubisoft are gonna continue bitching about how games are more expensive to make every year, just as an excuse to put their lootboxes and MTs in their games. Heck I can even see a future where games are all made entirely by AI and companies like EA are still gonna push for microtransactions citing "development costs" as the reason lol. No matter how cheap it gets to make them, we the players won't see the benefits, just more trash games coming out faster than ever.

ephphatha230 I feel like we're not quite there yet. This is a big leap for tech but in possibly 2 future generations we won't be able to tell reality from pc generated graphics in real time, not just static images
Good one, 5G and UE5 my body is ready

@@antwango ahem, Digimon would like to introduce itself
Right?
Working daily with Unreal Engine 4 myself, this got me excited like a child again - I am looking forward to what else they unveil for UE5.
if you work with ue4 daily.. are you making some game ?
There is an announced that Epic is waiving fees for less than a million dolars.
My office who works with Unreal was giddy as a kid as well. We definitely got less work done today because of this demo.
I don't think people fully understand how this new tech just opened the floodgates for so many things. I play in Unreal Engine, but most of my work is on the pre-rendered side of things. If what this tech does as advertised, that line between real-time and pre-rendered pipelines is going to get hazy in a way previously unheard of. There's been buzz-word style examples in the past of game engines getting on the same-par as pre-rendered, but the barrier of optimization and working high-poly models to something workable in an engine has been the divide and norm since the beginning of time. To be able to just drag and drop a high-quality photogrammetry scanned object into a game environment and call it a day without checking for topology is... I have no words for that. To see that many high-poly Z-Brush models just happening to be in the same environment literally made me stand-up from my chair.
What if UE5 isn't free and open source? :o
The crysis shrine with the candles in the background :D
I think anyone who works in graphics department of video games appreciates it's achievement, crysis was so good when it came it literally came up with new graphical sittings, it invented SSAO for god sake .
Yes the game was a good piece of shit

So ur telling me a console is better than a pc??
@@goldensperm7182 depends on the pc. 90% of pcs, yes, the new consoles are more powerful. The 2080ti gpu beats them and there ARE higher powered cpus but they reach into the enthusiest category with a price point to match. Even if they price the next gen consoles at 700 dollars (they wont) it would be a screaming deal over a desktop
@@dr._breens_beard it would be a screaming deal over a desktop with current gen components, but PC is getting some nice stuff soon as well
@@edgyboi1995 ....you do know 3000 series graphics cards are coming out later this year as well as Big Navi. Not to mention Ryzen/Threadrippers that are already out. PS5/XBox is not going to be more powerful than 99% of the pc's lol pure silliness. I am just glad they have caught up now I can get some sweet sweet ports.
@@edgyboi1995 did you pull that comment out of your ass? 🤦
My reaction: FILE SIZE, how is this going to affect the already bloated game files we're seeing these days, if we're introducing uncompressed models into the equation?
Probably less. This is a render technique of just HQ assets not a multi-asset swap thing including HQ and LQ assets. My guess. Unless of course the game has the "Low" quality options that translates to legacy techniques where all of the above still has to be included.
@@tylernol1566 Was just thinking along the same lines. In the current method, you still have some massively detailed models (though not to "billions of triangles" level), but also all the LoD models as well. "Billions" though is a *big* step - you could have a thousand LoD models for a 3-orders increase.
file size of what? a tech demo? youtubers should be the ones to explain how this bares little meaning but that wouldn t give them views. but if you like tech demos just go around youtube videos, you can find really old tech demos even more impressive
But game files are only bloated from the perspective of limited storage and poor Wi-Fi, right? If the storage on the PS5 is bigger and Wi-Fi gets better, then I don't see a problem.
Size doesn’t matter

Seriously. That characters left nostril has as many polygons as an entire scene in Wrath :)
wow, coming from offline rendering with Redshift, its quite impressive to see realtime micro-polygon rendering!
Yeah v-ray guy in here this is awesome
People who say stupid crap like "Games won't look like this" pretty much ignored every amazing part of how this streamlines content creation. The features talked about in the video lay out how devs will spend less time programming stuff like multiple LODs and baking in illumination, and more time on the game itself.
I love how development blew up through the ages and only now developers get stuff like this and Vulkan, making their job easier and giving us more performance
If the publisher is greedy enough to use those "easier way" as excuse to release subpar game sooner, i think the dev will have the same amount time to focus on the game itself

Keen for that deep dive breakdown Alex!
16:00 games like God of War, Tomb Raider, Uncharted which are not open world (have hub areas at most) can benefit this type of fidelity but AC Odyssey for example have to share that fidelity / quality to its assets because of its massive world and design. But, still, open world games like these can use it closeup views or photo modes which would be good.
I think semi-open world games like Metro:Exodus would benefit really well from the new engine.
@@DC-yh1on Hi, The only problem being that the Metro games are built on the 4A game engine not Unreal, The 4A Engine's a good one though so I imagine they'll have their own versions & upgrades for whatever's next from the Metro Universe.
Hi, The demo has a solid Tomb Raider\Unchartered vibe about it & I imagine that was done on purpose, At the moment the Tomb Raider games use tweaked versions of the Crystal engine that they call the Foundation Engine & the Unchartered series uses the in house Naughty Dog Engine so if EPIC was able to persuade big franchise's like these move to Unreal it would be quite the coup, this demo shows that the new version of Unreal is more thsn capable of running such games, my only issue with that is how they'll likely end up with timed exclusivity to the Epic Games Store on release.

Put it this way: the original UE4 engine demo for current gen systems was running on a high spec pc and games never really reached that demo in terms of lighting, effects, geometry. This demo is purportedly running already on a PS5. Serious game changer. Can't underestimate the power of good software optimized for good hardware. And it will just keep getting better. With that said, let's see some games running it and know for sure
exactly ..the difference is that ur4 engine demo was never running on the ps4. This is running on ps5. The specs are way higher i don't know why people don't believe the new systems are capable of this. John and Alex both think they are their questions were about how will it scale.
@@CC42_ people are let down in other places of their lives and project it onto their hobbies lol. Yes - it will be interesting to see how it scales. Given the new systems have so much more memory and processing power to work with I think we will see some very impressive results. I think we all need to remember too that this is the first wave of games, and that you will see game engines really squeeze every ounce out of these systems in the coming years.
There was a version of that UE4 demo running on PS4 hardware... And did you forget about Driveclub which wasn't even using UE4 and I think pushed well beyond what we saw in that demo all at 30FPS in 1080p.
Granted UE4 games didn't push graphics on the current PS4/XO consoles anywhere near as far as they initially showcased.
@@CC42_ Disappointing that DF never really talked about the instant streaming from the SSD, which no other system can do and this was mentioned in the Unreal video by the devs.
@@Rufnek2014 that's a different solution to the same issue though. You can get the ssme result with a better GPU and more power in general. It's not a game changer. It just helps supplement the lack of power compared to say, the series x.
And again, as he said, its optimized for all hardware across the board. Which means it wont be optimized primarily for that ssd. Because that isnt standard on the rest of the next gen platforms.
This has me nearly as hyped as the 2004 Killzone E3 ‘demo.’ 💯🔥
Prince Groove oooooooooooooooooooh that’s some high quality top tier shitposting right there.
2005*
@TITANIC BROWNEYE yeah that's the impression I got from the UE5 tech demo
A whole bunch of remakes incoming with this generation again then. I'm calling it now.
Yea, probably a lot of "ray-traced" or some other software "dynamic lightning" option. Since they really change the look and feel of a game more then most people realize. And many current gen PS4 games would scale really well I think.
Yup instead of innovation, we will get replication...yay
Not only that but they will go woke on most franchises.
I've been waiting for Crash Team Racing with real bandicoots and tigers driving sedans my whole life.
Final Fantasy VII Remake Remake?
19:01 ah my man Chad Warden and his PS Tripple... Good old days when youtube was still young LMFAO

Remember the days when we thought PS1 FMV looked amazing? That was an awfully long time ago 😭
Coombesy yes I remember seeing Tekken Fmv on ps1 at a friends house and being disappointed with the actual graphics in the game but I was a Nintendo fanboy then rocking Turok on N64 😁
Now videogames almost look like CGI films.
Ff7 cgi was the best in the world at that time! Edit: I remember killing emerald then ruby! Wow what a true worriers time!
FF7 looked amazing 🤣
Just the UE4 demo that was shown at the end of the video looked kinda potato, but I remember I was really really impressed when I saw it back in the day and it's not even that long ago! It's insane how far we have gone.
"Now this is next-gen!"
This title is my thoughts exactly upon seeing that demo
I noticed evident noise in the illumination (I don't think it's a film grain filter applied, it wouldn't make sense for a technical demo)
I believe that that real time GI is using some form of path tracing.
But, even with that, the poligonal details makes up for it.
The details in this game is so real that when I went outside I was extremely disappointed
Just play tomb raider lol
@@theichi4135 Tomb raider ??? Wtf looks like shit compare to this
Tommek461991 The real amazing thing is the instant map loading while she’s flying. That’s not possible on PS4.
Your smart jokes makes my cry 😂

"Look how flat and low res that rock is. Pathetic."
John has two Vitas on his coffee table! He really is the best DF got.
3, There is a OG PSV behind his arm

The vita is the best kept secret of the gaming world
Came to the comments to see if someone mentioned them.
There is a Vita in my pocket right now.

I’m curious how the lighting engine scales with number of lights. I did notice that the demo only had a single primary light source, being the sun.
I'm surprised his desk can run that 'Crysis' shrine.
The sound was just as incredible as the gfx. I can see why Sonys tempest engine is a big deal.
Was it just me or did the birds sound 3D?
The Rocks crumbling down behind you at the passage felt really 3d
@@kraenk12 it's called 3d audio
This was not tempest engine (probably) but just UE5 engine

IGN: Lower your expectations on next-gen graphics
Unreal engine 5: Whose Man's is THIS?!?!
I think IGN was talking about cross-gen games which look like ass on next gen.
lol
Giuliano López Raffo well they still look good, just not like a big leap outside of better resolution and frame rates.
@@RockyRacoon5 These days everyone needs a step by step explanation of everything what is being said. Otherwise it goes over their heads it seems....
You got dam right Victor Crackhead! 👀🤘
11:23 Says "Epic", points at self. 😄
Seriously though, I loved this discussion. Definitely got the next-gen hype train rolling! 🙌
He's was just preparing his very next gesticulation.
You must be madly fun at parties bro.
Cheers mate 🍻🥳
Thanks for the coverage! I have one question, how different is REYES from other methods like Frustum and Oclussion culling? :)
*My mind was blown when I found out the two devs were rendered in unreal engine 5*
Akzork they were??!
Sukiru No...
@@narukami6364 lol
your mind is rendered in unreal engine 10
UNATCO music from Deus Ex playing in the background. ☺️👍
Still it makes me goosebumps after 20 years!Holly crap I was 10 years old I just realised it... And that game is still my favourite!no game can surpass that epic plot and story!
Makes me feel like setting up LAM mines in Manderly's office....
What a coincidence, I'm playing through the game for the first time atm.
Multiplayer game with those graphics, would be freaking awsome.
Fun Fact I Noticed: At 7:15, the bugs are rendered as a particle system and are therefore not casting any realtime shadows at all.
Lmao give a raise to whoever snuck Chad Warden footage into this video.
LMAOOOO he ballin'
I ain't playin with no DILLLLLDO
Seriously. We on that quiple now bruh.
Lmfao! The LEGEND! 😂 (He's around 18:55 for those wondering)
Xbox ain't got no gaymez is truer than ever. 😅
Holy hell this looks good
@Equinox Man all depends of the devs but it can look like that
@Equinox Man AAA games Will ir even surprass from mid to end of the nextgen.
I wouldnt doubt Horizon 2 is looking on par with this already. Decima Engine is insane, so is the talent of guerrilha games when It comes to graphics
I’m excited for the day when fire looks anywhere approaching reality.
Is it me but when they was displaying the lumen engine for global illumination, the light source in the background didn’t change. Is that supposed to change as well? Plus there is a little ghosting after she drops the light ball into the mechanism before opening the ceiling. Just a little nitpicking but still greatly impressed.
Just imagine the first party developers at Sony and what they’re developing
its gonna be an uncharted demo with raytraced facial hair
bet
Fr, these next Naughty Dog games are going to look fucking insaaaaaaaaane
Don't forget about Quantic Dream and the OG David Cage
Yes, but remember that this is in engine, not in game. It has a striking difference between the two. Expect what you saw but downscaled.
nersoparanaense this is a better showcase of next gen than what we saw last week let’s just appreciate that
As someone who works in a game studio, this is all we are talking about today haha XD
It does seem very exciting for artists. Where do you work?
Revolutionary for sure. Like no other engine up to this point.
@@HesselFolkertsma Yeah, for future projects using UE5 this would save us soo much more time and would allow us to produce so many more assets. I work for a small studio in Portland, Oregon called Super Genius. We don't produce any of our own IPs unfortunately but we do work closely with other large developers ^_^
@@XcogamesLLC Yeah, the lighting is really impressive!
@@HesselFolkertsma Also if you're a 3D or VFX artist we are usually hiring in case you're interested!
With that much geometry... I want to see it up close in VR. That'd be so awesome
Man why was the background music so epic for? I thought it was Bruce Facloner for a second.
Absolutely, totally incredible! I believe that time will come when people now laughing at Mark Cerny talking about the importance of the ultra-fast SSD integrated into PS5 will realize this is really a big step towards the true next gen. It’s all just more complex than TFLOPs alone and significant part of the next gen may really come from an unexpected direction. So, seems like we’re really starting to understand what games of the future are going to offer to us. This is truly awesome!
It’s not just the super fast SSD though. It’s also the removal of all the other bottlenecks which will allow the SSD’s bandwidth to be utilised. The PS5 will be a lot quicker than people think in many ways.
@@amnril Correct. That custom memory controller will do wonders. But I'm more interested in what they're doing with audio. It honestly haven't changed drastically since the early 2000s and this might be a huge leap forward.
@@nouryy Those rocks falling sounded incredibly realistic.
This is unreal engine 5 which is available to all platforms idiot
One thing that impressed me was that I was amazed with this demo, but I only saw it on a 1080p CZcams stream. Image composition, not resolution is going to matter most. This was a perfect example why TFLOPs aren't everything. Being able to stream high quality assets is a huge deal. Oh and that demo sounded totally bad ass. Tempest engine will be no joke.
These demos always make me depressed because they always looks so cool and unique but naturally never get made into games as that’s not their intention. It’s sad how most tech demos look more exciting than 90% of game releases.
Was going to say this. We’ll likely never see a game that resembles this demo. Still impressive though. A nice proof of concept!
@@nyx3983 was there really no game that looked like the unreal 4 tech demos? I think unreal engine 3.5 Samaritan Demo kinda looked like Batman Arkham Knight so does that mean games on next gen consoles will only look like the unreal engine 4 demos we have seen 7 years ago?
Sad true
90% is a big number man. You might wanna lower that a bit. We’ve had some incredible titles this generation both gameplay and graphically.
with Death Stranding looking as good as it does on the Decima engine playing on PS4 i have no doubt games WILL look this good, the real question is... will developers work on a game long enough to make it look as good as this tech demo? ... i think they won't but they have the option too
Greatly appreciating the Deus Ex, music in the background!
Wonder if the idea or influence came perhaps from Euclideon Unlimited Detail thing that they presented many years ago.
I like how Xbox had a whole presentation and most people were dissapointed while Sony just got a shoutout from Epic and earned themselves some kudos.
"In the demo we actually did use dynamic resolution, although it ends up rendering at about 1440p most of the time"
Ramon Nakamura And?
obviously series x will be able to run this at higher resolution.
Z A after their event, doesn’t look like it lmao
@@TylerBR97 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 There is so many clueless people in the world, what you see in inside xbox were games, real games, this is just a tech demo....
Z A higher resolutions come at much higher cost. Don’t expect too much like this in 4K. It’s just 1.8 tf peak difference.
Is there a version of the Demo that hasn't run through the You Tube compression for download anywhere?
Really curious how they designed Nanite. Seems like they're using some custom, black magic index buffer optimized for fast, spatial dependent queries... or something.
