CC bought out by Toribash? Where would you get that idea? I think Hampa and Data are quite satisfied with how their games are turning out, so I don’t see them selling any time soon.

On Topic: Toribash “3″ looks awesome and very clear, what anti aliasing settings can we expect?

Off topic: I hope that CC will stay independent. Though if it is bought by Toribash I don’t mind much.

Data from Cortex Command and Hampa are friends?

(Well, the should, as everyone I know that has Toribash is going to buy CC)

Alright, thanks. I think I’ll be able to run it pretty well, but my video card is a little messed up. I think I’ll be able to buy a new one pretty soon though.

It’s not ACTUALLY raytracing, but motion blur and HDR lighting, previously limited to high-end 3d rendering - are now quite easily done in realtime. I’d say the majority of Xbox 360 and PS3 games now use both features.

It’s good to see motion blur being added to Toribash, though. It’s such a subtle yet effective effect, and allows things to look so much more fluid than they might otherwise.

Ok. I didn’t think raytracing in realtime made sense. It looks very good, regardless! Very good work.

At the moment we run demo tournaments every weekend.

The graphics in the demo is made with shaders. It looks like PovRay (a bit atleast) but is real time.

I’ve been out of the toribash world for some time now. Have there ever been tournaments that demo users could participate in? I just haven’t been around enough to know…

About the graphics… is that actual raytracing, or did you use another method? It has that same quality as POV-RAY videos.

We will probably add some servers for different belt grades in the near future.
