This is amazing - it will be cool when these models in unity can be turned into real buildings where one can design the interiors as well, and maybe use this in Hitman to play real cities.


what if you could own a build and the receive points on either survival or the other version points?

And you can build your own maps - and you set A and B and you win creds based on winner.

Fuck you Morgan Roberts at BLIZZARD you stole my legos


It's super cool.

Does the 3D tile mao extend down to the street level? I would have loved to see flying along the streets between the buildings.


Might it be the extreme chromatic aberration? I once read an article saying how to achieve 'photorealism' in computer graphics, one should add chromatic aberration, as that's what camera lenses naturally produce. I think some people take it too far though!


No lenses except the cheapest Chinese ones made for CCTV cameras exhibit noticeable chromatic aberrations. It's really annoying it's being pushed in video games so much lately.


Yeah but it looks pretty weird and blobby down there, and a lot of the street data is pretty warped and strange looking. I'm playing around with this for a cycling app, I think I'm going to go with sort of a drone follow camera.


Thanks for the video! Really neat technology, seems like a great way to explore. Something about the FOV makes me ill.


What is the music in that video? My Find Sound app is failing.
