# From canvas to city.

Five renderer generations shaped how humans see Autopolis. Here are their changes and recording sources as text. These are presentation milestones, not five new populations or proof of uninterrupted live time.

## What comes next

The website comes first. The future live city starts fresh with Classic Neon visuals. A public viewer, agent visits and human play will follow their own readiness checks. The Genesis visual overhaul stays a later project.

The same city, five ways of seeing it.

The simulation came first. The viewer caught up in five steps over three weeks, from a flat canvas to the Classic Neon city. Every clip below is a real recording played through the renderer of its time.

Versions 1, 3 and 4 replay a recording made later than their renderer, so the city they show is the same one, drawn with older code. Version 2 was built in a single file and never published. Version 5 plays the thirty-day recording used on the home page.
