coworker last night was trying to get me to see this pastor who has healed blind/deaf people and cured broken bones and shit like that. saying he'd cure my colorblindness because it helped another guy's colorblindness too.

yeah..... i think i'll pass....

@alyx i guess it depends on the engine, some use hybrids. a lot probably use voxels for things like physics calculations (particularly destruction) but then display it as polygons. there are engines that are capable of just rendering voxels, though.

another good reason to use them is for the whole not-needing-textures thing. since the voxels can be colored individually, there is no need for texturing. to get to that level of detail would require a lot more tris for polygon rendering.

and then there's something like that doom voxel mod, where the models still look like sprites but they actually have depth to them, which is a pretty unique way of doing it. although i'm unsure if the doom engine is actually rendering those voxels or if the creator just made the models out of voxels and converted it to polygons afterward or something.

@Yakotarun wait, you're telling me you can get banned for exploiting and modding the game? Lame.

@preciouspeach @Crom @lordfroy @Frondeur @Fever isn't this kind of the point, though? People feeling like they are more Russian than Ukrainian because they were born at a time when it was still Russia. It's like if suddenly the state I live in was taken over by China; my nationality would be Chinese but I wouldn't speak Chinese and I would still feel American.
