Is there a way you can release this as a real tech demo? (Like how CQ should have been as stated on Fanfest). As this will make people intresting in the tech EVE can offer and also if you played it good, you will get more data about how all the different PC setups will respond to tesselation.

Also you should make more techdemo/video`s, like the Carbon one with the lady and the dress, but also the exploding ships and other stuff you are planning / experimenting with.

As this question is probaly a long shot, this is one thing i would like to try out. (And maybe others people as well.)



I made a presentation in 2003 at WinHEC about hardware tessellation. Matrox had great support for it, sadly the development community showed little interest and we never made it a major part of DX-9. It is funny to see nVidia pushing it now because back then they were one of the biggest opponents of us trying to drive it into the industry.

It does make for great demos, not so sure it will prove to be as wonderful in practice. You are basically turning a lot of control of your geometry over to the GPU and results can not be as intended.
