> Be as it may, I've seen the 'fake 3D' claim before and I'm starting to wonder if I'm missing something in my understanding of this technology, maybe someone can offer a third opinion? I agree that all 3D is 'faked' in the sense that it's drawn to a 2D grid of lights eventually, I guess it just depends on where in the pipeline you make that fundamental transformation. I only meant faked in that the GPU itself is 2D, whereas the GTE is just math. So it's kinda like doing CSS transformations to make a web page all 3D-looking (a gross understatement I know, but, nevertheless). Though, semantically, I guess the '3D' part of a modern GPU is also 'just math'. Well now you've got me thinking about it harder... Wonderful article by the way! I've read yours a few times myself. |
