<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="437">7:17</a> and still, almost 20 years later, we don't have games with such detailed smoke or water physics. Today, it's all "ray tracing this", "ray tracing that". I wish there was a focus on physics simulation. Good memories. I remember downloading the stuff from 2006. Blew my mind that I could actually control the demo in real time.

I definitely remember in Stalker Clear Sky there is a moment where volumetric smoke is used, or rather steam comes from the ventilation and if a box is placed in front of it, the smoke will spread around the box and not through it, and I haven’t seen this in any other games.

Becuse we hadn't had any actual technological advacenements in aobut 15+ years. It's all just raytracing this, ai graphics that but we're stuck in a limbo. I pity all kids who didn't experience 1990-2005 and the insane leaps graphical development did in that timeframe. You went from 16 Color EGA to 3DFX to actual photorealistic graphics. In the past 15 years people couldn't even make water look realistic.

@theblah12 7 күн бұрын
We’re at a point where the biggest bottleneck for creating amazing graphics is from creating the art assets itself, not the rendering tech. A tech demo made by a small internal team is going to have a harder time impressing then an environment created by a AAA studio with hundreds of accomplished artists and a hundred million dollar budget, even if the tech demo is using more advanced rendering tech. Plus, devs have gotten extremely good getting the most out of “old school” rendering techniques that newer types of rendering tech don’t hit quite as hard as they might have - ray tracing and path tracing looks amazing, but the older baked lighting systems games used a generation earlier still hold up really well. The most impressive tech demos coming out these days are ones from Epic Games in my opinion, but that’s because they have the combined power of impressive tech, a hugely popular engine to sell that tech to, and a massive army of artists to enlist to showcase their engine’s latest features in the best possible light.

I didn't know about a lot of these. Every time I get a new graphics cards I have always enjoyed going back and trying older tech demos that used to make my system struggle and watching my system plow through them with ease. For example, I remember trying Unigine Heaven on my GTX 460 back in the day and it would really struggle with any of the medium/higher settings. Then my GTX 970 did fairly well on it but still wasn't flawless at Ultra. I wasn't until my GTX 1080 that it was able to blast through it on Ultra settings at 1080p, and it was very satisfying when it finally did. Cheers!

For a long time, PC graphics were leaps and bounds ahead of what was available on consoles. I used to love downloading the latest nvidia tech demos just to see if my computer could run them. I remember the wolfman demo running at like 5fps lol. I found it fascinating to look at the advancements in reflection and water graphics. The 1999-2000 demos bring back some fond memories. It was fun time to be a kid and into computers.

@@Henrybramthis is just my feeling, I have no idea if it’s factually accurate, but it seems like today most PC games can still be tuned down to work on consoles. It’s essentially just effects like ray tracing that make them look more impressive, they aren’t using dramatically larger worlds or complex models or anything. Back in the day, it seemed as though there were many games that would be impossible to run on the consoles of the time no matter how you optimized them. I’m talking during the PlayStation era. But it may have just been a difference in development software and proprietary hardware of consoles. Maybe now it’s all a lot more universal.

Its seems, you only took the demos Nvidia currently lists, but sadly, they missed a few. E.g. Nalu Demo from 2004, which was mermaid with very beautiful long hair. She is actually hidden on the Geforce 6 card even in this video in the top left corner. Actually someone found out that Nvidia removed all demos with female characters, quite some iconic, but too sexy now? They are Dusk, Dawn, Nalu, Luna, Adrianne, Medusa and A New Dawn

Haven't seen most of these since back in the day when I worked in a shop building PCs. Interesting that some of the demos have CPU bound speeds, the fireflies or whatever they are in the 'Grove' demo flying around the tree are meant to be slow, but are going way too fast here on non-original hardware. Also the water in tide pool is too fast.

I had just graduated high school and was building my own PC’s in the early 2000’s and I remember how you couldn’t keep up with the video card changes. A game that came out like a year after your video card already wouldn’t run on it. And I don’t mean would run poorly. I mean you couldn’t even start it up.
