for those who care, here's some more information:
rubicon itself was planned since late 1998,
but its actual development was started one week
before takeover 99.
the raytracing engine was coded a while ago and
contains a considerable amount of work.
if fact, it is pretty fast now, considering the
complexity of the scenes and the resolution.
some features we show in rubicon:
> pointlights, spotlights, fog, shadows
> reflections, transparency,
> ambient, diffuse & specular shading
> texture- and bumpmapping
> antialiasing (in the high-quality version)
everything is true raytracing, no fake techniques
like gridinterpolation are used.
this intro is intended to show that a lot of
nice things can be done with raytracing, and it
is also meant to make use of your fast processor.
as usual, internal rendering is done in
truecolor, and you should really use a 24 or
32 bit mode to display the output.
more versions of rubicon will be released soon.
