Phoenix Engine 6-19-05 Dynamic Cubemapping

I added support for dynamic cubemapping. This means that reflection and refraction effects can be applied to other object in the scene, and not just skyboxes.

Dude.. most excellent.

What graphics library are you using for these demos? GLUT?

Just OpenGL

I think he means how are you using it? GLUt is ok for demos and stuff, but SDL is much better for large-scale stuff.

oh man this is so awesome. i've actually only seen one other game to do this. although it will slow down the framerate by a considerable amount, it looks great!

One word (possibly two) KICKASS. I'm going to try to do somthing like this, but not for a long, long time.
