SUPERBRILLIANT code!
Breathtaking, very elegant! And nice music, too.
Kicked my ass!
not even 1fps with the low version here :-/ but even at a slideshow pace i can see this is amazing raytracing in 4k :)
hell yeah! not really real time on high version, but you just RULE.
Amazing rendering.
Cool

Oh yes
this one was just great! :o

Cool stuff!
Got only black screan and music =(

Verry nice !
What a magical moment, seeing this moving. It looks so awesome, but it would have been cool to have more demo style in it. Faster camera, more twists and a different music style. It's a bit too calm for me, but visually a full blast!
Something I don't need to see to thumb up.
lol so fucking heavy !! but still great SS ! =D
16 minutes precalc here -_-
I'll back with new machine... in 2015

Awesome...
Shines!
Slow as hell, yet an amazing thing to pull off
neat
It looks really neat, but it is rather dull. Still; nice technical achievement. :)
As mentioned by everybody, looks awesome, feels dull. Thumb for the looks :)
ray my pov
tech rulage.
It moves :)
we are not worthy!
Holy shit! I expect it needs a beast of a machine to run, but the video looked incredible. This is the sort of thing Nvidia should use to show off their technology.
this is completely gorgeous! well done!
needs some hw powah! but its looking fecking nice!
That’s absolutely impressive - it looks so much better than Photon-Race 1, the camera moves, music and this all only a few days later. Thumb up!
good looking - next up: silly robots wrestling in shattering glass? :D
Super slick mega boredom generator.
This worked better as 4k gfx, to be honest. Nice raytracing or whatever it is, but after a few moments I'm done marvelling at the technical achievement and want something more interesting.
Still, having rendering like this in 4k with sound and all is pretty damn awesome codewise, so I really can't give this a thumb down.

Gorgeous!
excellency codewise.
the code is ace.
but its a bit too similar to your 4k procedural gfx for me

wow!

Worked a lot better as the 4k gfx. The rendering quality is turned down a lot, the framerate is really too low to be enjoyable (for any decent quality) and the camera movements etc is not really what I would call an intro.
what gloom said
great one :D
what wullon said
Best glass I've seen in a scene production. ;)
jaw dropped
another heavy achievement here. gratz,archee :)
Realtime-Raytracing in 4k,what time is it again? ah,2008 :)

The future is now, just have to wait 10 years for the hardware :) tech tech
me likes. hopefully opencl will be finished soon ;)
amazing!
Coolest RTRT so far!
Surprisingly fast, I think (with some semi-recent dualcore amd)...

super!
Excellent.

looking very nice but gets a piggie for just rotating the camera instead of actually doing something with the thing
should have won. imho
next time moving stuff please ;)

Coder pr0n and a tune.
black screen only (with music) on 7900 nvidia card...
Wow!
Great models, but more action please.
can it be more static? I don't care if the rendering is cool actually.
Whoa!!
looks even more photorealistic than the still from buenzli. nice tune!
Is there a low_low available?
F*cking beautiful! / Kiba... jó! :)
omg wtf!
Looked good, but the camera and sound sucks big time. Thumb for the visuals.
technically impressive ... but way too slow on my machine :(
Oh, they even had a Cray 2 as compo machine???
Seriously, this is some mad coding effort!
Seriously, this is some mad coding effort!
impressive visuals... but a bit boring sadly.
I love the blue glas here.
the medium-1024x768 version runs beautifully here (r4850) but no music, which is weird. i liked the still version so it follows i like this. :)
Astounding!
Impressive raytraced sequence with good music in 4k
really nice, but too slow for a thumb up (ATI 2600XT)
Aua
Nice. Gets a bit boring after a while though.
great code... but would have been rocked more if you would have done some effects with it... instead of just a fly by... now it looks good but gets boring after some time...
What everyone who said it worked better as a 4k gfx said..
the demo was running too slow. (1-2fps)
but great code.
but great code.
I've always been great fond of raytracing so this really was cool. The whole concept reminds me about topics from 1992-1996, during the DKB, Vivid, PovRay time, when guys like Coy spoke about "realtime raytracing" :) Nice nice and it runs fine on my box in high res.
when trying to unpack, antivir keeps telling me about a TR/Crypt.XPACK.Gen Trojan horse, why is that?
Great looking! :D
Fantastic coding
very impressive.
not as fun to watch as h4vok, but very beautiful and impressive
Thumbs for not having a gazillion of cubes
The first words out of my mouth as it started running was "Holy *bleep*!" A really impressive in4k.
very impressive. like it!
very realistic glass
coder p0rn at its very very best!
impressive
pure pr0n !
hot.
:o
Very nice!
Amazing coding.. and doesn't run too shabbily on a GTX 280, either.
Great!
very impressive!
c0derpr0n!!
What loady said!
Great!!!
nice rays.
Unplayable on my old PC. Looks nice in MP4 format. However, I saw shimmerings on the edges when not moving. Is that part of the source or encoding?
<3 Archee
isn't the screenshot already pr0n enough? :D
music wasn't really good, though.

Coderporn!
black screen and music x1900, win xp sp2, latest drivers.
looks great
3000 stills of 4k procedural gfx winners
A perfect example of lovely code, lovely technology and utterly shit design.
It's really Awesome!!!
Great!
Cool!
So wow!! ... iam speachless
So nice objects, good Synth and a totally convincing rendering. Is this real raytracing or is the refraction a fake?

the code rules.
great code but rather boring presentation. the tune is quite nice though.
re-releasing the same thing twice is no good.
W T F
Excellent code, music and not to forget eye-candy!

only saw the YT vid,but AMAZING!
woot
There should be laws that forbid rocking that much.
how?
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this is sick
I really LOVE your stuff!!
Stunning!
Speechless.
What Hicks "says"!
The glass is so beutiful! And this is 4096 bytes?!?! OMG! Dude, you rock! I have never known that so much amazing stuff can be done in realtime even with a decent GPU...
Impressive.
booooring
great 4k
AWESOME! I love it <3
Yes.
Best glass shader I've seen yet.
eyecandy! sick 4k!
this is insane. dude, what the fuck?!
Good 4k.
Very nice
great one, featuring Pohár :D
Seems to just crash
I do like it as an exercise in rendering technique, though of course a lot of it is precalced and thus very static.
Other than that, it's forgettable and by now hardly remarkable at all. Thumb goes up because it was one of the first 4k intros I saw and I was very impressed back then (though a lot more so with texas, in the same compo).

Belated thumb for a historic prod from one of the best 4k compos in the past decade.
I am even more impressed now, realising the technical flex you managed to pull back in 2008.
