Unigine Tests Key Enhancements To Unigine Engine

Posted by Michael Larabel on February 28, 2012

Unigine Corp is reporting today several key enhancements to their visually-impressive Unigine Engine.

Among the enhancements they have reported on their development log for their proprietary engine is improved support for NVIDIA 3D Vision, improved support for Intel HD 3000 (Sandy Bridge) graphics, better GLX_ARB_create_context extension support (benefiting Mesa on Linux), performance improvements to its renderer, improved shadows quality, and much more. The list of changes is quite extensive so be sure to check out their development log posting for details in full.

This is the first major advancement we've seen to the Unigine Engine since the recent release of Unigine OilRush. Still coming up from Unigine Corp is their Unigine Valley tech demo, updates to their existing Unigine Heaven benchmark, and other announcements from their partners.
