Quotewith your technology you could compress a dvd to a floppy disk!

you got it all wrong. .the .product is not about compression, it's about generation. we can only "compress" data generated with our tool.

They didn't actually compress anything, what they are using is called "procedural textures", and obviously, procedural audio, vertex data or whatever. I'm not saying it's simple, on the contrary, it's more complicated, they had to come up with formulas, that look and sound nice, but I'm saying they didn't start by having 1.9GB of data to end up compressing them in 64K. The scene rules, btw ;)

the textures are created & rendered when you launch it, it's all just code.
Parent

ag0n 7 Nov 2007, 08:05
its just cpu based.Cpu calculate all th stuff at right time. i know
Parent

so it has nothing to do with codecs or compressing.
