Unreal Engine 4 - Impressive Video Shows Off An Entire Honda Jet Rendered In Real-Time

Company 4T has released an amazing video, showing off a Honda Jet that was rendered in real-time by Unreal Engine 4. This tech demo showcases an amazing level of detail, really high-res textures, great reflections and refractions, as well as GI effects. What’s also impressive is that the entire scene is dynamic and dynamically lit. According to the company, each cabin light can be toggled and adjusted and anything that can move does (arm rests extend, knobs turn, tray tables extend and even the sink in the lavatory works).

Okay

Okay we know the engine is attractive. Let's see a real game.

I don`t know if it`s just me, but i didn`t think it looked that impressive. Some sound would`ve helped too i`m sure.

The outside of the plane is just way too shiny for me. Almoast like the covered the whole damned thing with lipgloss or something. The lighting and clouds don`t all that good either.

The inside was better, but still too lipgloss for me.

I was thinking the same thing

[cyclindk]

I was thinking too much eye shadow, or anal bleaching...

I was all like, "dang, that jet is waaaay too bleached."

I completely agree with you. Unreal Engine just isn't the definition of graphics anymore like it used to be.

Just better engines out there now, Unreal had its time and who knows maybe it will again someday but not this moment. Not saying this looks terrible either but it definitely is not the most impressive thing I have seen engine wise and it isn't that realistic looking.

[Fireseed]

While I do agree that there are better engines, the main reason this was so lackluster was because the artist is pretty bad.

[Visiblemarc]

I agree, it just seemed OK...but not great. Like, if it were in-game that would be one thing, but an isolated tech demo? Wasn't impressed.

Youtube compression is no doubt a factor here, but um, yeah seems weak.

[purpleblau]

Same with me. Looks like a Cinema4d render video. rather mediocre. don't see the awesomeness of this graphics.

[Maldread]

Hahaha cyclindk. You`re right about that. Bubble for the laugh :)

[xtheblackparade]

I wasn't impressed either. Should make a next-gen shooter to see.

[Yahdaree]

Ya, that's alrigh, I guess... I wouldn't say it's anything super great though..

[MaxwellBuddha]

Looks great considering it was made by four guys in their spare time over the course of a month.

Ok, so, we just watched 3:47 of a private jet with no strippers, no champagne and flying without pilots?

Not impressed.

I was silently hoping for Marcus Fenix to chainsaw Lancer his way out of the side of the jet and skydive down towards a locust swarm.

But, no, it was a silent video of a tech demo jet.

[MaxwellBuddha]

You're not impressed by a jet flying silently without a pilot?

[Audiggity]

Call me a snob if you must. My standards are high sir...

[AnEwGuY]

Something tells me Epic would not endorse this video as a promo for UE4. This looks more like something done early on in the UE3 life cycle.

[Milruka]

That's not even remotely impressive, the quality was just all around average at best.

[Sketchy_Galore]

Meh, not impressed (haven't watched the video yet but just wanted to fit in).

[Adityac]

The Unreal Engine video demonstrations look great but when we actually see games running on Unreal Engine, the game looks OKAY. Games like; Mortal Kombat, Unreal Tournament 3, the Batman Arkham city series etc. None of those games look anywhere close to the demonstrations. I think history is just going to repeat itself with Unreal Engine 4.

[mysteryraz11]

looks like that can run a on ps3 or 360 almost, show something like unreal infiltrator level or dont make a article about this

[BlakHavoc]

What I noticed in games is that they tend to make things look TOO shiny, this plane is an excellent example of that, the lighting could be a little better and there's just way too much gloss on this plane. I've seen it done to people in games, where they tend to make the skin look to shimmery, almost as if they have on a ton of baby oil, in real life things are normally not that shiny unless it's been waxed and has a brand new paint job, idk what it is but in real life colors just seem more dull and there's not that much shimmer to everything.
