i remember that in starfox adventures. quite an amaxing effect. its a shame devs havent taken a shot at it since. rare really could do amazing things on ninty hardware.
on the wii, galaxy has the same fur effect seen on the moogels in FFCC (though for some reaosn FFCC on wiiware doesent have that effect).
im guessing its a B*&CH to pull off...thats why devs stay away from it. id imagine that they would need specialised skills in assembly to do it, good skills with C++ wont cut it. the wii is not an easy console to develop for when u start going down the rabbit hole...so to speak.
Edit: sorry just thinking about it....starfox adventures was a really amazing technical achievement. pillars made of water (like the water in galaxy, not some blue texture), real time lighting as seen in splinter cell on the xbox, the fur on fox. no loading and really detaild textures (for the time). who ever developed the tech for the game at rare......pats on back all round. really a stunning looking game.
