I'm going to make better anti aliasing, lighting, focusing and reflectance, crespuscular rays and smooth shadowing.

Any ideas what I should add?

Nice! But what could these be used for? I mean, they're pretty laggy, so slapping it on a SurfaceGui or ScreenGui where it's constantly rendering is a big no-no, so.. why?

Make it have transparency, like the ability to see through windows and have the pixel slightly tinted? I was doing that... Of course, I didn't even think of making reflections with it.

Coming from the person who boasts a script builder as the most complicated thing he's ever made

"(of a person, place, or thing) possess (a feature that is a source of pride)."

"The hotel boasts high standards of comfort"

I'm not referring to the bragging version of "boast".

You keep claiming that, yet you never have anything to show. You think you have a good method figured out for how to make something, but there are often unforeseen complications with the goal or even that method. You never know until you try. Once I was comfortable with Lua's syntax, I thought I could make anything only to find I was completely wrong when I attempted to make a pathfinder.

I know i am not perfect, you never stop learning.
But i do know how to create a camera, and what most people use is either roblox's raycasting system or their own, you simply cast a ray to check if theres something in the way of that ray, if there is, you can make a pixel on that spot that's the same color as the parts color.
Creating reflections is fairly simple to, its not very hard to create a rebound, or to launch extra rays to check whats behind a transparent object, and after that deviding the color of the transparent part with the one behind it.

I wish it was THAT simple. :)
Lerping Colors is the most hard thing after the lighting. My Lighting is still really bad actually... I'm just not showing it on that scene.

Way easier than mustering the nerve to post that something you are incapable of making is easy, right? :)

I am capable of making it, what makes you think i'm not?
Just because i haven't made it before doesn't mean i couldn't make it if i wanted to.

@dog: You have next to absolutely no scripting experience at all. When you stop whining that everything is simple, and actually make quite a bit yourself(you have a huge list at this point), I will bend my knee to you and worship you as the one true almighty god (sorry SN0X).
