Parisian Apartment in Unreal 4 engine

You can see the video or download the demo and run it yourself. Pretty amazing graphics. But the game play is not really that good.

Damn, looks extremely realistic, but quite jittery. I wonder what the Hardware used was?

 

[Insomniator]

Wow, and you think current games look good until you see what true next gen can be.

Even considering diminishing returns, we still have a loonnnnggg way to go. And this is just graphics on the surface, what about when you sit on a couch cushion or pick up a towel? Might need physx cards after all

I tried it on my rig @2560x1440 and it didn't feel fluid, probably around 30 fps.

Doesn't seem too bad. Probably a couple generations of GPUs before 60fps.

Oh my god, completely unreal graphics!
60 fps version here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6P...eature=iv&annotation_id=annotation_1876126005

Very cool... probably most photo realistic real time rendering I've seen, but I haven't really been looking.

Good performance for me at 1440p / G-sync. Wasn't jittery (probably between 40 and 70 FPS).

Edit: as well as your custom resolution, add -fullscreen to the shortcut. It should run smoother.

They have a Unity apartment too. I guess it's a nice demonstration of how games can look in the future but we already knew that.

Not true, just runs like garbage in the default windowed mode. G-sync helps too if you have it. I get ~60 FPS for most of the demo. Particularly impressed with the wood table reflections in the kitchen.

Bunch of other videos of similar and some I think are better than that. That part of the forum has other screenshots and videos also of that type of stuff.

Edit: there is no reason a scene like that shouldn't have good fps.

I feel so stupid now, having watched Witcher 3 gameplay earlier and thought "wow, nice graphics, can't wait to get to play this!"

 

[kagui]

from that video one fair comment .
how much off it is premade.
because i dont see any dinamic lighting

edit: some objects do have real time lighting and some doesnt have real lighting behavior like the mirrors

Looks fantastic and runs like butter on my system.

 

[Udgnim]

ran it on my PC

no idea what settings it was using, but it looks better in video form than actually on my PC

not liking the filter that makes everything look lower resolution unless it is running lower res than 1080

 

[soccerballtux]

can't wait for UT4-Bloxeh_2016 to make full use of this engine...

 

[at80eighty]

neat, but iirc people like Koola on archviz have made arguably better stuff, with minor physics too - e.g. leaves settling on water. excited to see where we will be in another 5 years. gaming with this level of detail might actually happen soon enough

 

[Gloomy]

The reflective surfaces ruin it.

Those reflections are not good looking at all, when they stop reflecting things they should reflect (like the bright windows) as you walk around.

I don't care if most of it is premade, the fact that my rig was showing these kind of graphics on screen, real time, reminded me of the day that I played Farcry 1 or Crysis 1 for the first time. "Is this box beside me actually doing all of this? Damn!"

Butter smooth on a 290 at 1080p. Of course once you start adding interactivity/movement to the scene and the endless list of tasks a game engine does in an actual game you'll have to give some of the fidelity away, but to think games that realistic (at least graphically) would be possible in a few years' time with these new engines, it is actually exciting.

Bring it on, UT4!

Maybe FRAPS can be used to see frame rates?

 

[Kippa]

Aesthetically it looks very nice although I don't think it was the bleeding edge of current graphics. The reason I am critical is that if you forget what it looks like and think about the actual underlying geometry involved in the video, there was a lot of flat walls and flat doors. At a guess the details in the ceiling was a single texture bump map and not real geometry. In comparison think about a real fps game, compare a flat wall geometry wise versus a highly detailed high polygon character in an fps game. If the same demo ran fine in high fps with lets say with 10 high polygon detailed characters from a current fps game included inside the demo and still maintain high fps, then I really would be in awe.

word, archviz's stuff is definitely more impressive tech-wise than this.

just look at this:

It looks good sure, but there are some textures that up close lack that clarity and some round objects aren't perfectly round and show some sharp edges. There is too much use of reflection. Taken as a whole though it is very nice to see that this is where games are going.

 

[biostud]

Just did some benchmarking with FRAPS @ 2560x1440 fullscreen.

Frames: 1982 - Time: 60000ms - Avg: 33.033 - Min: 27 - Max: 46

I'm pretty sure it doesn't support CF though.

and some round objects aren't perfectly round and show some sharp edges.

That one vase on the table caught my eye, very low polycount.

 

[Dankk]

My 980 runs it buttery smooth at 1080p. Looks nice.
