It is still very special, and optimisation isn't over yet, and soon more optimisations on newer x86/SSE machinery will be done. ...

_Picogen_ is/will be a rendering system for the creation and rendering of artificial nature, primarily based on ray tracing. While the primary purpose of picogen is to display realistic 3d terrain, both in terms of terrain formation and image plausability, it also is a heightmap-creation tool (th...
