Chrome And Opera Pass The Web Graphics Test Of Epic Citadel

Apart from Mozilla Firefox, browsers like Chrome and Opera had been successful enough to win the graphics test for web based 3D gaming engines. But Firefox had used the asm.js technology whereas the latter did not.

Epic Citadel’s Unreal Engine 3 Game and the demo built by them on 3D graphics technology were first used by Mozilla Firefox and now by Chrome and Opera. The confront from the new demo include 3D graphics covered with 2D textures, flowing water, rustling leaves, lens flare, reflective stone floors and many other effects of lighting.

Recently, new advanced web programming techniques were introduced by Epic Games and Mozilla. Mozilla technologies were utilized for introducing the same. The new technology that was demonstrated includes Ernscripten that helps in converting C or C++ software into JavaScript. asm.js that was chosen and demonstrated by Mozilla Firefox was capable enough to run a subset of JavaScript on a high speed.

Mozilla had been successful enough to introduce the new advanced asm.js that could speed up the JavaScript whereas Opera and Chrome had to take part in the graphics test using their very own technology of JavaScript. The demo by Epic Games also utilizes WebGL standards for performing 3D graphics and the same is welcomed by Mozilla, Chrome and Opera as all of them are found to support the same.

The support that is offered for the new browser is remarkable and it gives priority to web programs that could work on any kind of computer with a browser. It also supports working on different platforms and it would be easy for writing codes that could make it work on even iOS, Windows or any other preferred platforms. The developers would find the web programming to be quite easy, but they need to develop quite complicated programs for web apps that are quite complicated ones.

Both Mozilla and Google have been focusing to improve performance through different methods. Mozilla’s technology asm.js has been making use of ahead of time compilation to enhance its performance and to encourage the same “use asm” hint is sent to the browser along with the Web app to encourage the latest technology.

If you wish to know more about the performance of Mozilla in graphics test conducted by Epic Citadel, you could contact the Mozilla Firefox support team. Mozilla Firefox support center can provide you more information on this topic.
