So it seems Rayman Origins has been done using textures too! I think I'm focusing too much in tech field and underestimating the importance of professional artwork I guess that's ok, I'm just a programmer after all ____ "The unlimited potential has been replaced by the concrete reality of what I programmed today." - Jordan Mechner. |

Paul whoknows said: underestimating the importance of professional artwork Are you saying that it takes no skill to create good looking vector images? Anyway, it's waste to not use pre-rendered vector graphics unless you plan to do deformations and/or massive scaling.

No. I'm saying those game look so great that I thought they were made using real-time vector graphics techniques, but I was wrong, those games look great mostly because of the artwork of professional artists and designers. ____ "The unlimited potential has been replaced by the concrete reality of what I programmed today." - Jordan Mechner. |

Does one take more memory than the other? I can't find anything about that. Was just curious about the pros and cons of Vector graphics to bitmap graphics.

Bitmaps will usually take more memory, especially at larger sizes. Vector graphics require more computing power.

LennyLen said: Bitmaps will usually take more memory, especially at larger sizes. Vector graphics require more computing power. So it is one of those things where you are trading one for the other.

Essentially, but he forgot to include vector graphics can also be transformed, though, that may have been implied.
