Chapter 15 Intelligent Game Engines
In the science and technology museum, just as Xu Lei expected, as the influence on the information screen next to the intelligent image restoration technology booth officially became [-] points, a soft light was shot from a booth not far away, It is particularly dazzling in the hall.

Seeing this scene, how could Xu Lei suppress his inner excitement.

Before the light dissipated, he quickly walked over, wondering what the booth that was unlocked this time would be.

"This is……"

Xu Lei stood in front of the booth. When the dazzling light gradually dissipated and the items inside jumped into his sight, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he couldn't help murmuring.

Unlike the previous black and white old photos, what appeared on the booth at this moment was an editor page.

Because it contained too much content, Xu Lei couldn't determine its use in a short time, so he had to pin his hopes on the information screen next to it.

Name: Smart Game Engine

Level: zero-level civilization

Evaluation: A work that changes the industry structure and builds a real virtual world.

Influence: 0/10000
Collection unit: Science and Technology Museum of Cosmic Civilization

"I didn't expect that the exhibit unlocked this time would be a game engine. It seems a bit difficult to handle."

No matter now or in the next few years, games are always a very profitable industry, such as Penguin, Wangyi and Miyou in China.

However, due to the huge investment in developing game engines, major game companies do not develop new game engines at present, but tend to use third-party off-the-shelf engines to make their own games, so that a huge engine licensing market has formed.

However, since the mainstream engine Unreal has already established a complete ecosystem, it is difficult for new game engines to come out.

What's more, the value of influence has also increased to ten thousand points this time.

Combined with the previous situation, at least 100 million users are required to continue to unlock new booths, and the difficulty can be imagined.

You must understand that the Unreal Engine company that has been operating in the market for many years has only a few million users.

And also globally.

After all, unlike application software games, the engine is a highly functional editing program, and only professionals in the relevant industry will use it.

of course.

Compared with AI image restoration technology, game engines are undoubtedly more valuable and can bring unimaginable profits to the company.

If the intelligent game engine collected by this museum can be successfully produced and a benign ecological environment can be established, the licensing fee will be an astronomical figure.

"Forget it, let's look at the details first."

These thoughts flashed through Xu Lei's mind quickly, and in the end he decided to put them aside for the time being, and let him understand this so-called intelligent game engine clearly.

Find out what special features it has.

As a museum that collects the science and technology of various civilizations in the universe, although the exhibits may be at the same level as now, since the word "intelligence" is added, it should have good advanced technology.

Otherwise, I am afraid that it is not eligible to be collected by the museum and placed on the exhibition stand.

Thinking of this, Xu Lei no longer hesitated, and immediately clicked on the note in the lower right corner.

Immediately, the detailed function introduction of the exhibits, the technical knowledge involved, and all the source codes were displayed in front of his eyes.

……

"This is too strong!"

I don't know how long it has been, Xu Lei reluctantly withdraws his eyes from the information screen. At this time, the state of the whole person can only be described in two words.

Shocked.

Yes, he was shocked.

After carefully reading the detailed introduction of this smart game engine, Xu Lei found that the effect of this engine has far surpassed any game engine he knows on the market.

He had to admit that he really underestimated the museum's collection standards just now.

Because the core of this smart game engine is a program similar to artificial intelligence, and more importantly, it is qualitatively different from the smart voices produced by those manufacturers. The creators can quickly complete steps such as modeling scene effects, etc. And it has powerful functions such as virtual micro-polygon geometry system sub-components, full dynamic global illumination, etc., which can also meet the production of high-level cinema blockbuster movies.

The other is its visual real-time rendering, which can reach a level of ultra-high efficiency.

To put it simply, film and television works such as game animations that used to take several years to produce can be completed in as little as a few months using this intelligent game engine.

Even the final effect is even more perfect.

The key is in terms of operation and use, and the intelligent game engine is also simpler and more convenient.

Unlike the mainstream Unreal Engines on the market, systematic learning and accumulation of experience is required to meet the requirements for participation in production.

Xu Lei can imagine that if this smart game engine is released, it will definitely change the global game, animation, film and television industry structure, just like the evaluation given by the museum.

By then, there will be an endless stream of well-produced game animations and special effects blockbusters, and players will be annoyed because they don’t have much time to experience them.

As for those shoddy works that rely entirely on marketing, they will be completely expelled by the market and audience.

In this case, the production company can only work hard on the plot setting and other aspects, opening an era of introversion between companies.

What a sight it will be then.

Xu Lei is looking forward to it.

-

"It's a pity that with the current level of hardware development, I'm afraid the computer with the highest configuration can't play [-]% of the engine's processing speed, but it's still enough to beat the mainstream game engines on the market."

Temporarily calming down his emotions, Xu Lei began to consider the next question with rational thinking.

With a deeper understanding of this smart game engine, he has made a decision in his heart to make it a product of future technology no matter what.

However, such a large and complex program component is impossible to complete by himself, even if he knocks his fingers to pieces, and the time cost needs to be considered in the process.

As for Future Technology, there are only two people including him as the boss, and it is not so easy to form a complete programming team.

It seems that no matter how you look at it, this smart game engine will not be able to go online in a short time.

But when Xu Lei fell into deep thought about this, suddenly a flash of light flashed in his mind.

"By the way, artificial intelligence."

"I can first use its core program to produce an advanced artificial intelligence, and then let it assist me in developing the engine."

"This method should be feasible. Even if the final effect is not ideal, it will definitely improve the efficiency of development."

Muttering in the mouth, the eyes are getting brighter and brighter, and I can't wait to leave the museum immediately to make it.

But Xu Lei is also very clear in his heart that the artificial intelligence knowledge he has now alone is not enough, so he needs to immerse himself in the various knowledge and technologies in the game engine annotations, and learn to master them.

Determined to pay attention, Xu Lei entered the state of selfless study again just like last time.
