anims illustrating texels technique
Here are some examples of complex animated scenes
using volumetric textures (or texels ).
Most of them needs 20 minutes for rendering
in ray-tracing, without aliasing, at video size (768x576),
on an Indigo2 at 250Mhz.
See my
main texels page in France,
with more anims and images,
plus explanations and papers.
