Nvidia has released a new video for its Hairworks middleware that enables developers to simulate and render fur/hair to provide a truly interactive game experience. FYI, the video features some animals from CD Projekt RED's highly anticipated RPG, The Witcher 3.

It doesn't really have to, lots of cool stuff in GW and not necessarily a gpu hog. It's all about how it is implemented.

The demo video is nice, I want this or TressFX in every game, if more GPU muscle is needed then that's what Crossfire/SLI is for. :nerd:

That is the reply to TressFX I suppose . Looks fantastic and should be well optimized.

Not sure why they wanna call it Hairworks. This should be a part of Gameworks.

No actually PhysX has been around way before tressFX was even a thought. You must be new to pc.

Its optional, why not allow people with better hardware to get the best out of their game?

Seems very strange for a PC gamer to hate on having more options for improving the visual quality of a game and its scaling over time.

I totally agree with you, it is very strange but fanboyism is usually the reason. Usually the ones who talk crap are the guys who have a pc that cannot use these types of features. Also no one is forcing anyone to use these kind of effects. They always give us a box to check or uncheck if we want to use or not.
