hey i know the subtitles are super honky wonky, if anyone knows how to do the thing where you upload custom subtitles, pls help, i had to re render this video like 5 times, so like 23 hours of rendering, and i wasnt about to do it again to change the subtitles, pls help, pls
hey, i bet you are wondering "wait a minute, where is the lights section"
and the answer to that my little child... i didnt finish it!
sorry, it was because of time constraints lol, thats life. but here is the script for that part in case you want the info :Ok, looking good, Now every thing we need to do is to light this thing, how will we go about it? well, its important to remember that at the time a lot of games couldn’t really handle real time lighting, from a light source anyways, so objects would go with one of 3 options. First, having a set lighting, second, having lighting be portrayed by vertex colors, or third, having no lighting at all, and having things be displayed with flat shading, some games might also employ a mix of options 1 and 2. In cases where games had to change the illumination of characters in real time, like in this room in majoras mask, as I was told, everything that’s really being done here is the game putting a different environment color over the model at that time. Games might also just change the set lighting of a model on the fly on some ocations. Its also important to remember that games of this era were, for the most ,unable to cast real time shadows, tho some games had certain work arounds, such as using textures to replace an actual shadow. However there are some very few exeptions to this rule, such as conker’s bad fur day.

corrections thread: pls comment here any corrections you wanna make or things you think i should have added into the video!

@HiimIny 3 года назад

correction by user jimmy: 1. the ps1 used the compact disc which held 700 megabytes of data. 2. n64 cartridges actually held 64 megabytes of data note by me: yes this is true and i forgot to mention the exact amount! but actually is more of a "could hold" rather than actually doing so. ps1 disks usually did get to the 700mb, but 64mb cards were super expensive to make, so only like 3 games or so actually did use 64mb cards. still thanks!

@HiimIny 3 года назад

correction by user Bukachell: One important detail is vertex snapping for PS1 mainly if you're doing animations, since if I remember correctly the PS1 used decimals to calculate vertex positions or something but it wasn't able to do it as precisely as the N64 note by me: yeah pretty much, I forgot to mention that. vertex in the ps1 couldn't move sub pixel distances, so they either were in the center of a pixel, or they would snap to the center of the neighbor pixel. it was either that, or the vertex could only go to coordinates that were whole numbers. so like, a vertex was either in position 1, or position 2; and it couldn't be in position 1.5 per example. its one of those two, cant recall it from the top of my head RN

@guillermo9171 2 года назад

Just a few details: 1- The N64 antialiasing blurred the whole screen, meaning it didn't detect edges like MSAA (I think the closest way to approximate it would be a rough form of FXAA?) 2- It also used dithering like the PS1, but thanks to the aforementioned blurring it was less noticeable (but still definitely noticeable, so if you want to recreate the look you should definitely include it) 3- Many N64 games actually ran at a lower 256x224 but 320x240 is still a good compromise. 4- The texture filtering applied N64 is called "3-point filtering" and doesn't look anything like the default bilinear applied on PC (it has to be recreated with a shader) 5- The N64 could selectively leave some layers or textures unfiltered, which is useful so HUDs don't look blurry. 6- Not sure about this but wasn't the PS1 able to render more textured, lit polygons than N64? But still games couldn't take advantage of it because they had to subdivide large polygons to prevent textures from going crazy? (from lack of perspective correction). Anyway great video. Good stuff on the use of vertex texturing/shading I didn't know about.

@llcoolgames Год назад

the console manufacturers always state max polygons per second. if you want to get the polygons per frame you divide the number by fps, obviously. like by 30 for an adventure game or 60 for a racing game. this is what a scene would look like back than realistically.

@HandlebarOrionX Год назад

Some N64 games utilized extra boundaries for some textures for added detail. With some being 64x128 or 128x64. Though most would be 64x64

One important detail is vertex snapping for PS1 mainly if you're doing animations, since if I remember correctly the PS1 used decimals to calculate vertex positions or something but it wasn't able to do it as precisely as the N64. Most N64 games used 32 x 32 textures instead of the maximum 64 x 64 resolution

@jlewwis1995 2 года назад

Actually technically the max possible resolution on the n64 is 64x128 if you go on n64squid you can see some info on all the supported texture formats and resolutions

@hendosboxofmystery1359 2 года назад

n64 used floating point math which in basic terms is a mantissa (the significant digits) and an exponent (the position of the decimal point) this system could store fairly precise numbers and could also store really big/really small numbers but would lose precision the bigger/smaller they go the ps1 used a much simpler fixed point integer system where a 32bit integer is split in half with 16bits for the whole number and 16bits for the fraction this is much less precise than floating points but is also much cheaper on processing power so it was used a lot back in the day for video games

You would need to use arithmetic and do the wobbly calculations of vertexes and vertices in the 3D environment. It is not easy to pull off I think, but if someone manages to find the code for that exact calculation, it might be possible.

I think you forgot about affine texture mapping on the PS1 which is essential. Also I think you can just take 360 000 flat polygons per second as a reference and then count flat shaded poly's as 1, textured as 2 and gouraud shaded as 4 and add it all together. Other than that it's a good video, even though I knew most of it already I kinda forgot about some.

@HiimIny 3 года назад

absolutely did forget that, and as you mention affine texture filtering, i just noticed that i also forgot to mention mip mapping in the n64 textures, as well as as that they specifically used 3 point texture filtering, rather than like, normal filtering. lmao, well anyways, could you paste your comment into the pinned comment of the video? thats where i expected corrections to go, well anyways, thanks for the correction!

@Definitely_a_Fox 2 года назад

As far as I'm aware, there were also games on the PS1 that used Mip Mapping, but I don't know if the PS1 natively supported it, or if some developers implemented it into their games themselves.

Just a couple of corrections: 1- The N64 also does use dithering when outputting images to the screen. It has a higher color depth (21-bits I believe) than PS1's (15-bits). 2- The N64's largest texture can be 90 x 90, but it only allows a very low depth as a tradeoff. I don't remember all the details (you can look up at the N64 Homebrew scene if you want to learn in depth), but this is how I memorized for my 3D artworks and projects: - 32x32 = Full color depth, unnecessary because it devours texture cache space - 48x48 (or 32x64/64x32) = High enough color depth, for detailing - 64x64 = Low color depth, most common depth (see next paragraph) - 90x90 = Very low color depth Color depth and resolution aren't necessarily locked with each other, but rather neither can be exceed if you use any of the listed samples I mentioned. ALSO the N64 also supports greyscale textures, which occupy half the space (if I'm not wrong) for the same amount of colors if you were to include hue on them. That's where you'll want to use vertex colors even more (Link's clothing in both OoT & MM is the most omnipresent example I can think of). PS: TOOLS FOR TEXTURES: Both GraphicsGale and Paint.net can lower the color depth of images. Pro Motion NG allows you to edit a color palette (up to 256 colors, you can also manually allow a max number of colors). But I only use them for doing the fine-tuning I just described on each program - I do the main job on Krita (I know, not the best option, but it's good enough and free).

@kiwirocket64 10 месяцев назад

Can I just say I think the PlayStation one aged way better than the Nintendo 64 just because of how it draws textures it doesn’t it uses linear filtering and I think that single fact just makes everything look better than on the Nintendo 64 because it’s moved everything out making everything look bad

@mikeshaver-miller745 Год назад

Colour depth differed between the two consoles, with PS1 having a lower depth than N64. Hence the dithering, which, thanks to NTSC artifacting in CRT displays, could result in a higher perceived colour depth and overall smoothness in presentation. PS1’s instability was caused by not really handling floating point numbers, like at all? You can actually see similar results in modern game engines by looking at objects rendered at great distances from the local origin of the scene (the middle of the game’s current map space, or coordinates 0,0,0). If you want an easy example of this, load up the original 2011 release of Skyrim and head to the southeast corner of the city of Whiterun, on the road between the farmsteads and Honningbrew meadery, then look to the west at the mountains on the edge of the world space. If you slowly pan the camera from side to side, you should see the snow caps on the mountain where it meets with the rocks there “warble” a little bit. This is because that location is incredibly far from the local origin of your current cell, so when the engine tries to convert the polygons’ XYZ coordinates to a vector (a value between 0 and 1), each frame gets vastly different and inaccurate approximations due to decimal rounding errors.

@MizoxNG 10 месяцев назад

one of the reasons it's hard to get a solid figure on polygon count limits for the consoles is because fill rate and overdraw were generally more limiting than raw triangle count

@HiimIny 10 месяцев назад

yeh, the numbers I gave were like, mostly scene averages, like, how many triangles would generally be on any given scene per console, if im not mistaken the number used for the 64 was like, the average of all of the mario 64 areas including npcs, and a couple areas from the zelda games (plus maybe something else but I cant remember) but I couldn't get as good averages when it came to the play station, cause like, stuff varied a whole lot more in that console. cause like, yeah because of stuff with the rendering pipeline and whatnot, a scene with 100 triangles of the first type and another scene with the same ammount of triangles of the same sort could easily have very different prefformance. the actual practical architecture and modeling techniques used to count how many polygons are actually optimal for any given scene scapes me, cause I know virtually nothing about programming, and I sorta gotta go off of what I can see surface level as an artist.

@Budderguy Год назад

I under stand how much work go's into this thank you very much for the work I support your work

@mjcox242 10 месяцев назад

one thing to note about N64AA, its not true anti aliusing, its more like a soft blur.

@HiimIny 10 месяцев назад

actually it has both if im not mistaken. the n64 uses an old equivalent of the thing that most modern games have on their options labeled as "quickAA" (or just as the "anti aliasing" node in blender) which is like, not *true* anti aliasing in the modern sense of the word, its more of a filter than anything else, but it is a lot more complicated than a simple blur. but the n64 does also have a flat horizontal blur, if I'm not mistaken it is a blur of half a pixel? as in like, the image is rendered in 320p horizontally (as an example) then it is scaled linearly to 640p, and then those pixels are squished so that they occupy the same space as the original 320p. so the result is like, every even pixel horizontally is the original color, and every odd pixel is the average color of both the pixels to its sides. or at least thats how I think it works? I'm not 100% sure. the n64 probably did things slightly differently internally, but that's what would be the closest recreation that can easily be done with modern art tools for non programmers. but correct me if im wrong.

The ps1 polycount is wild... Becouse it could output actualy a lot more than you would guess. But they were such shitty poligons that every actual 3d game on ps1 used some form of tesselation so the textures dint became a mess. Funny is that there were some isometric ps1 games that becouse of the lack of perspective had amazing detailed scenes, wild arms 2 comes to mind

@fungo6631 4 месяца назад

Please take this video with a massive grain of salt, as it mostly regurgitates info from Wikipedia and other retro game RU-vid channels that they themselves mostly regurgitate it from Wikipedia. The whole N64 texture size thing is mostly a myth. Proof is several N64 games that have motion blur framebuffer effects. The way they do it is that they load chunks of the two framebuffers into the texture cache and blend them there before storing the result into the framebuffer. It seems like the N64 can actually handle any size up to 1024 pixels horizontally or vertically if it fits in the texture cache. I believe you can actually get up to 1024x1024 textures on the N64 by loading them 4K chunk by 4K chunk. However you also want to subdivide it into multiple long horizontal rectangles for each texture load for rendering efficiency. If you want accurate N64 style graphics, I'd suggest you Saauren and Kaze Emanuar's videos as resources for documentation.

yeah honestly, I would have adored to touch on the dreamcast, but like, by itself my research for this video was pretty... not amazing as it is. and the dreamcast just sorta worked completely differently, it was a very very unique system, the way it managed lighting and materials and texturing, something completely different from anything before or after it, not quite a modern (ish) material based rendering like that of the gamecube or the ps2, but also way more sophisticated than the stuff on the ps1 or the n64, far beyond the stuff I understand how to use. not to mention how inconsistent (tho rather high) the polygon counts were on it.

The PS1 is better in storage, and only this. Oh yeah, and 64 can handle more resolution too. You can compare with Rayman 2 and hot wheels for example.
