Realtime Nebula Rendering

Have a look: Infinity - Nebulae. Be sure to watch his realtime recorded video here [AVI].

I would really dig having a skybox generator that used this technique. According to his writeup “…In the game, they will be used as “render-to-cubemap” to generate a skybox that is only updated when the viewer position within the galaxy changes” that’s exactly what he will be doing. But I’d really like a stand-alone application that does this too.

I bet it would make a great screensaver too. Big kudos to Ysaneya!
