Mar 8, 2016 at 19:44 comment added Bálint @Kumaresan Sandran If it's just a small level, then spending a lot of money on it would be insane. But yes, the fact, that you have a small scene makes some things easier, for example if you need dynamic shadow mapping, then ypu can get away with a smaller shadow map.
Mar 4, 2016 at 3:02 comment added Kumaresan Sandran @Balint actually its just a prototype with only a small level. I would agree its pretty unrealistic to build a game with ray casting quality alone. You said a game should be a game and not real life. But isn't everyone trying to make games that are ultra realistic, almost real life? I mean I havent seen a game that looks 100% real but its close or there maybe some elements in the game world that does actually look real. I have always felt that hardware is the only stumbling block for everyone, a problem I believe will be solved eventually.

Feb 23, 2016 at 15:47 comment added DMGregory The Unity blog you link already provides the basic recipe: high quality assets with physically-based materials, a good lighting setup with an HDR cubemap, and light probes to approximate realtime global illumination. (If you're not using dynamic objects/lights in your scene, you may be able to bake the lighting statically instead)
Feb 23, 2016 at 12:33 comment added Philipp Raycasting is a completely different rendering approach than the scanline-based engine of Unity. So you will never achieve the exact same results with these two techniques. However, Unity also has some nice tricks up its sleeve to make scenes look better. But describing them all would be far too broad for the format of this website.
