It's ray-traced into boxes that make the body parts. It's movement is using verlet physics, and the voice is made from a creaking door sample! :) It all runs in real-time on a GTX 260.

Love your rendering engine, good luck with whatever you have planned next for it. Title: Re: Mandel-Spider!

Thanks.Love your rendering engine, good luck with whatever you have planned next for it. I never said it had to be made of mandelbulbs. It can be any distance field object of any colour or pattern. This is a work in progress. Title: Re: Mandel-Spider! Post by: schizo on January 06, 2013, 01:57:55 PM Minecraft ist old - Mandelcraft is the future :dink:
really cool virtual world and the spider moves perfect. Title: Re: Mandel-Spider! Post by: John Smith on January 07, 2013, 11:39:18 PM Quote Minecraft ist old - Mandelcraft is the future I had the same thoughts. When first I saw your terrain project. Any chance you could add a creeper, with perhaps a fractal fireball? |
