NVidia announces Cg: "C" for Graphics
mr_sheel writes: "Thresh's FiringSquad has an article about Cg, a new language developed by NVidia in collaboration with Microsoft. 'Up until now,' Brandon Bell writes, 'game developers have had to use complex assembly language to create the lifelike graphics gamers experience in today's latest games.' Cg eases the process of bringing graphics to the screen and compiles for DirectX 8,9 and OpenGL 1.4. Many companies, including 3D Studio Max, Blizzard, and over 100 game developers, have already jumped onto the Cg bandwagon. Will this replace assembly graphics coding once and for all?"
This is the news release that Slashdot actually gets paid for by Nvidia.
Hey Timothy.... go to your preference page and UNBLOCK all CmdrTaco stories.... this way you can see what he posted and not post it yourself.
I know some of his stories suck but it's for the good of all of us.
You can keep Katz stuff blocked.

Next door to whom exactly?
Saying Java is nice because it works on all OS's is like saying that anal sex is nice because it works on all genders.

A bass player? Pshaw, as if.
That means that the developers have moved to Australia! *drumroll*
Thank you, thank you very much.

If you know so much about pro game developers, you must be one yourself. Oh but wait, you're hanging out on a community site. I'm confused.
nVidia doesn't make graphics cards, they make graphics chips. Its like saying Linux is an operating system.
What we see depends on mainly what we look for. -- John Lubbock Now search for that bug slave!
With Microsoft involved we will still get the Blue Screen of Death, only now it'll be anti-aliased, vertex shaded, and happen at 400+ fps.
Geez! You got + karma out for just posting my bio and asking a quest on my sig.

That's total copyright infrigement.
