Through a graphic interface artists can develop, test and maintain shaders with
realtime feedback - without the need for programming skills. Complex
cooperating shader networks for generating photorealistic effects can be
created without deploying dedicated shader programming expertise.
Mental Mill supports MetaSL, the universal meta shader language developed by
Mental Images. Using MetaSL, shaders are only created once independent of
the target platforms and then compiled into highly efficient code for execution
on general purpose CPUs as well as on GPUs or custom processors.
