It may be a small step in the wide-ranging universe of outmoded #videogames, but it is a step! Take heed, publishers hoarding old games!! #RetroComputing #tech https://mjtsai.com/blog/2024/11/22/unreal-on-internet-archive/

How to build a video wall for VFX. If you've ever wondered how they build those video walls so they can film people without green screens in movies, but with the background projected on screens, this video explains it. They build a video wall with 56 columns, 10 rows high. Each panel has 192 by 192 pixels. It's grouped into 4 sections, with 14 columns and 10 rows in each section. Each section is powered by a separate computer running Unreal Engine. They employ a variety of tips & tricks to get the panels exactly lined up. If there is even a tiny misalignment, the glitch creates visible seams. The firmware color settings have to be exactly the same for all the panels. The panels are often sold differently and any differences are visible when you have cameras pointed at them all day. So they have to be reprogrammed. It takes about 8 people a week to make the whole video wall.

Unreal Engine 5.2 – Next-Gen Graphics Tech Demo Showing Real-Time Rendering

Rivian electric truck with one wheel on a protruding rock, with forest in the background
I certainly could spend a whole day watching the details of this stunningly beautiful world being explored by driving this Rivian through it. The level of detail is truly mind-blowing now.

Two things that are shown off here are firstly the type of detail that can be rendered for a vehicle, and secondly how changes to the virtual world are just rendered in near real-time.

I’m just picturing in my mind having the game Snowrunner releasing something with this level of detail…

Wow the trailer is so cool

Hello dear Mastonauts and friends of productive procrastination, the vacation project to get down has come to an output - here and now you are watching the world premiere of a rare teaser of the 70s movie "John Mastodon". It's about time travel, so no contradiction there.
That's also why I know you liked the teaser. 🤓

I ask you anyway: what do you think?
