Re: Ray tracing

The water effects will indeed be difficult to replicate (still working hard on that), but the first photo is impressive mainly because of the quality of the materials rather than the raytracing-ness. On that note, UE4 has an excellent materials system, and since we're gonna try super hard on the tex...

Re: What island is this?

Re: Linking into two ages at once?

In Modern Physics class I remember it was said that two events can be simultaneous, but they might not be simultaneous to all observers (depending on their speed and possibly something else). It was my gut reaction to conclude that the events are either simultaneous or not, and that whether they app...

Re: 233rd age

We currently have no plans to release another demo, at least for a while.
