QUAKE Ray Tracing Movie

[Jun 10, 2008, 10:15 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

PCGH has video from the Game Developer's Conference earlier this year, showing off ray tracing in Quake III Arena, Quake 4, and Enemy Territory: QUAKE Wars using specially modified versions of each game. This is an academic exercise, but offers a nice primer on the benefits of ray tracing.
