Using CUDA in Openttd?

Post by Letharion »

Hi!

I'm looking for an interesting test project to do in Cuda, and I would like to do something "real-life".
I like OpenTTD and wanted to ask, if any devs know of someplace in the code that could be optionally parallelized, if
the user has a cuda capable graphics card.
It's my understanding that OpenTTD has a "police" of remaing low on system requirements, so any computer equiped with a cuda
device is unlikely to NEED this extra speed boost, but none the less, I'd like to contribute to this project, if I can. :)

If anyone finds this idea interesting, please give me some ideas of what I could do.

If you're not familiar with Cuda: http://www.nvidia.com/object/cuda_home.html

Regards, Claes.

Well, I get the point. That's a shame. I'll find something else to do. Thanks.
