NURBS are.. swass?


UPDATE - 2:30 AM Eastern
by Chris Playo

The Internet forum, Gaming Age is speculating that further details about the Nintendo Revolution will be made available on Wednesday August 24th. For those who do not know the significance of the date, both the GBA and the GameCube were discussed on that day.

However, news regarding the Revolution may have come a little sooner than expected. On the forum, a user posted a French article regarding the graphical capabilities of the console.

Apparently the Revolution will utilize a new form of a polygon currently referred to as a NURB or nonuniform rational B-splines. These NURB's are said to be able to generate very detailed graphics within an enormous scope.

In addition, NURB's are known to be much more efficient than standard polygons. It is much easier on a machine to generate an image in terms of NURB's rather than traditional polygons. This fact regarding the new type of image formatting fits very well into Nintendo's design for the Revolution.
Given the inherent design of NURB curves, the Revolution could be substantially smaller and less powerful than the competition but would still be comparable.

Please remember that this information has not been confirmed by any official source. However, for a detailed history of NURB's check out this page. GC Advanced will keep you updated regarding this developing story.

OMG!! :lol

Can't...breathe! Laughing...too...much!!!!
 
Seriously - FUCK NURBS!

I remember them being the big 'hip' word like two/three years ago. People act like they're some industry breaking technology/method or something, I don't even think their use is preferred by developers.
 
Everyone on these forums are like "NURBS teh suX0rz." and everyone outside of these forums are like "NURBS teh \/\/in.".


What is the DEFINITIVE answer regarding NURBS vs. POLYS?
 
What makes it so funny is just...it's so far beyond ridiculous to run that story with NO facts. The fact that they say using nurbs means the console can be smaller without losing power is just the funniest thing I've ever read

Did anyone else read this and think "The Lincoln Squirrel has been assasinated. We'll stay with this story all night if we have to!" :D
 
NURBS have been around forever, THEY ARE NOT LIGHT WEIGHT, and they have very little place in Realtime 3d rendering due to their rendering cost. You use NURBS for movies, not games. The author of this article is a dumbass.

Do you have a 3d modeling program handy, you can teach yourself.

You can do a little experiment. Create a sphere using roughly 40 polygons.

Now create a NURBs surface and form it into a sphere.

Or, if you want a polygonical representation of what NURBs are like, create a sphere using 400 polygons. Notice how they seem so similar to your eye. Thats the rub. The is a finite amount of detail where, adding more polygons DOES NOTHING. This is why using NURBs is pointless.
 
Tomorrow is August 24th.

Also, today is August 23rd and when you eat at Hank's Look Around Cafe, you and your food.....well....they go on an adventure.




I'm stronger now.
 
Remember:

11:00 am Wednesday Japan time is equal to 7:00 pm TONIGHT (Tuesday) Pacific Time.

So it's possible Wednesdayton will actually be Tuesdayton!!!

It was Wednesday in the US when the Gamecube and stuff was revealed. So this should count as a Wednesdayton, unless Nintendo decides to reveal the information at a slightly different time.
 
You guys do know that when actual news IS release... someone is going to have to create a new thread for it?

This one is soooooooooo far gone

And the Benny Hill music DOES make this thread even funnier.
 
Could a mod change the title "Wednesdayton!!!" into "WEDNESDAYTON" ? That would make it look better and stand out more.
