Crystal
Dynamics have belted out 15 GIANT screenshots
showcasing TressFX technologies used to animate
Lara Croft in Tomb Raider. AMD states TressFX
Hair revolutionizes Lara Croft's locks by using
the DirectCompute programming language to unlock
the massively-parallel processing capabilities
of the Graphics Core Next architecture, enabling
image quality previously restricted to pre-rendered
images.
"Graphics
cards featuring the Graphics Core Next architecture,
like select AMD Radeon HD 7000 Series, are particularly
well-equipped to handle these types of tasks,
with their combination of fast on-chip shared
memory and massive processing throughput on the
order of trillions of operations per second."
Both
nVidia and AMD with DirectX 11 will animate Lara
Croft in this way. Follow the fetching
