Nocturne Update

Nocturne is today’s business-side update, the sort of suit-and-spreadsheet news that still decides what games actually reach players.

The useful part: There is a lot to know about this game, and we are going to start by giving you specifics on the Nocturne Engine and how it affects gameplay. The Nocturne engine is divided into many parts, including the Nocturne Rendering Engine, Nocturne Sound Engine, Night Moves character engine and Nocturne Cloth engine. The Nocturne Rendering Engine incorporates many technologies proprietary to Terminal Reality. The engine itself supports either 16-bit or 32-bit color rendering, with 32-bit color rendering supporting 1 billion visible colors through a proprietary. File it under the usual 1999 PC pile: interesting, crowded, and probably fighting five other releases for attention.
