Engine Supports Glass Shots
Explanation:
If the engine allowed dromeders to simulate the old movie trick of painting an elaborate background on a piece of glass to provide elaborate back-drops eg a roccocco ceiling of a mansion, a detailed cityscape stretching into the distance etc.
Points to bear in mind:
This would be a good workaround on the large detailed spaces vs polycount balance.
All it would need is the ability to import a large JPEG or AVI onto a flat surface, and locate it in an inaccessible area of the screen. (Complicated billboards?)
