'make game ready' surely referes to the act of re-topologizing zbrush/mudbox models exported into Max/Maya/XSI into far less geometry in order to use it in the game engine. The model then has the normal/displacement maps applied combined with tesselation to create a model that looks similar to the ultra-high end digital sculpture.

Yeah...well that's Dead or Alive, they need high poly character models. It shows too, GTAIV's character models were pretty awful.
If the average character model next-gen looked as detailed as kratos in GoW3, i'd be happy. I'm guessing we'll be seeing 150,000 Polygon characters in the high end games next gen which i personally would really like to see.
4 ≈ One
Like everyone else is saying I doubt the the actual models will be 1Mil Poly count. More like 150'000 or so cut still that is quite an accomplishment.

Lets put it this way that Haven demo has a slider to adjust the level of tessellation in real time lol, most people crank it up to max so the difference is more pronounced. One of the main advantages is you can scale it in real time so closer you get more detail is added etc, of course on consoles it will be up to the developer to set the level of tesselation etc but I doubt they will go to the extreams that certain tech demos do as they will be trying to maintain realism or keep to their art style the huge displacement seen on the roads in heaven are very unlike to be seen in actual games. Of course there are other uses for tesselation as well not just adding detail to models or enviroments it can also be used for effects like smoke and water and also for things like realtime deformation for much more realistic destruction, like for example you could use tesselation to make realistic craters in the ground etc, it really very cool technology. This is one of my personal favorite DX11 tessellation demos, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LzULTgyn-3U, I can't wait for games to start utalising things like this the possibilities are endless. |
Okay, good.
That alien demo surely must have utalized some other new techniques rather than just tesselation? Tesselation doesn't provide character models with organs and skeletons and stuff right?
