Presentation from GameFest 2008

Many innovative global illumination techniques have been described in recent years, but using these techniques in actual games seems to be a non-trivial task. This presentation sheds some light on these difficulties and discusses possible solutions. We review a few of the recent global illumination techniques and, in particular, discuss a detailed implementation of reflective shadow maps, with demos. The goal of the presentation is to leave the audience with a renewed optimism and excitement for implementing global illumination techniques in their games.
