Unfortunately, the nodes for MAP18 were corrupted, which made the level unplayable. This wasn't noticed for 24 hours, by which time it was too late to withdraw the release. So comes 0.6.2, containing fixes for the... http://www.doomworld.com/vb/doomworld-news/42738-carmack-on-id-tech6-ray-tracing-voxels-and-more/ http://www.doomworld.com/vb/doomworld-news/42738-carmack-on-id-tech6-ray-tracing-voxels-and-more/ Fri, 14 Mar 2008 02:37:14 -0500 PC Perspective posted an interesting and extensive interview with John Carmack detailing his opinions on what will matter for future 3d engines, as well as a bit of information on what he hopes to achieve in the future.
