Quick .plan - TSE works...

Hey GG, long time no .plan.
Here's a quick run-down of a few of the projects I've been working on in recent months:
TSE Lightning: A complete rewrite of the lightning object/system with a major graphical update.

Another shot:

GPU based perlin noise generator: Speedy perlin noise generation taking advantage of the GPU's superior image processing power.

FX Light Corona: This is really just a prototype I made one day for a shader based corona effect renderer.

A*: Good ol' A*. What can I say? It kicks ass.

Cloud Renderer: A shader-based cloud renderer using billboard sprites and dyanmicl LOD imposter sprites(still working on this part).
FYI-This shot is rendering ~80,000(overkill) particles at a close distance with no object imposters or other performace boosters.

Maybe I'll find the time to post a .plan with substance sometime soon.
