I mean the irony of telling people to study well using short hand.

-thinking lightning is harder to render then textures

Lighting IS harder to render than textures. Texures are just images draped over a mesh, lighting has to be calculated on the fly depending on where you are, what direction you are looking and what surface materials are around you(reflections, etc)

you know that textures these days have to react to lightning ? Iam not saying Lightning is harder, Iam just saying it is not easier to apply textures, and I as a advanced Modder ( photoshop and 3dMax) can know that

If you mean that it takes more human work to make and apply nice textures, then sure I agree with you.

I assumed that you thought textures take more GPU clock cycles than than a lighting engine. Textures do not need much in the way of raw calculating, they just use up an assload of bandwidth and video/system memory.

-Did you mean Linux will play windows games? Because Linux runs on PC's and so by definition any game you can play on Linux is a PC game.

-Who said that streaming is the same as rendering? And why would anyone care?

-Lighting is harder to render than textures. You say you use 3Dmax, try rendering with Ray tracing off or on, on the same textured image. Which takes longer?

Please think before you accuse people of saying idiotic things.

He's referring to the topics already posted about the PS3 "playing" PC games through streaming.
