Street Fighter V is out featuring some awesome tech from Geomerics.
Today, next instalment of Capcom’s beloved franchise Sreet Fighter was released. Geomerics‘ lighting technology, Enlighten, is reported to be used in Street Fighter V (which is actually powered by UE4) to bring the characters and stages to life. This technology allows the game to deal with indirect light and the way it bounces off surfaces. Enlighten helped Capcom achieve the greater degree of awesomeness in creating iconic characters.
Street Fighter is back with its fifth installment bringing Enlighten to rebuild beloved title. Enlighten’s advanced spherical harmonic probe technology, the element responsible for shading objects that move at runtime allowed Capcom to create indirect lighting for its characters.
We couldn’t have brought the characters and stages to life like we did in Street Fighter V without the help from the team at Geomerics and their Enlighten technology.
