yup, been around for a few years now. If i remember rightly the guys in talks with some dev studios so hopefully we'll be seeing it used for games rather than just tech demos :)

At 8:42 - "Fractalopolis?" :icon_lol:

And does anyone recognize the second airport by any chance?

Note, no stuttering, smooooooth frame rates... :)

Whats really wild is that alot of the scenery is created by matchmatical fractals, if I remember correctly, like all the trees on the mountains, all done by distancing and fractal structures. Its a totally new science in virtual space creation in a sim.

I found this while looking for game engines... really doing some research on game engines to match what I want in a naval simulation.

Looking at this,Quest 3D and Visual 3D.


Right now just seeing how to import models and create real landmasses and water.

Looks very promising, doesn't it? Lukla never looked so good. I posted an interview with the devolpers recently:
