I have reading a lot about the potential use of sparse voxel octrees in future graphics engines. However I have been unable to find technical information on them. I understand what a voxel is, however I dont know what sparse voxel octrees are or how are they any more efficient than the polygonal techniques in use now. Could somebody e...
I have got a 3D grid (voxels), where some of the voxels are filled, and some are not. The 3D grid is sparsely filled, so I have got a set filledVoxels with coordinates (x, y, z) of the filled voxels. What I am trying to do is find out is for each filled voxel, how many neighboring voxels are filled too. Here is an example: filledVoxel...

Hey there, What in your opinions, would be the best language to create a large (massive..) 3d voxel based grid in? i.e. like Minecraft (http://www.minecraft.net/) I note that Minecraft was created in Java, this obviously has it's disadvantages. Help me make a decision! :) p.s. This is community wiki, so no points gained, just after ...
