I lost my sanity programming a PlayStation 2 

A real world would be: Make custom game engine from scratch with DX12 on board and try to port it to PSVita. It already took me 1.5 months to just... see nothing on the screen, because architecting just some basic things in it takes a lot of time and I still haven't got it to load files, let a lone textures or shader files. it starts with: let's learn how you could make swapchain to swop. And then it takes you months of your free time to make basic functionality and resource synchronization... But it's fun! ✨✨✨✨✨ (:

@@SweetieSnowyCelestia i personally stick to the easy route and focus more on different aspects of design, while throwing everything together in Unity But i have a valid excuse for it: work full time as a project manager in an indie game studio, so my coding abilities are between an average junior and middle devs

​@@AlexGFrank i know why people usually stick to the easy to use engine - because it is a tool to achieve your goal. My personal favorite is to sharpen my own tool, which is always exciting in terms of flexibility, power and other cool aspects. But it comes at a great cost of time. And instead of making the game, I take my time sharpening my engine.

Ahh, but is that floating cube performant enough? Is it up to standard coding practices? Also, Bill is asking for you to change it to a tetrahedron in cornflower blue.

​@@AppliedCryogenics we should implement full blown Render Graph and Visibility Buffer with custom GPU Software Rasterizer in order to optimize it enough for our computers to run it smoothly!

People who can code on pretty much any legacy hardware like that are amazing to me.

@@costelinha1867 i really really really dont wanna take the credit away from anyone, but you can definetely find SDKs available online for pretty much anything, legal or not, official or not, you can learn how to code in most languages nowadays on youtube, and then download the SDK, code it, and find a way to get your final rom on an emulator on on the og hardware yea some consoles are very harder than others and it is easier said than done, i myself made snes and mega drive rom hacks and i can not fathom how much effort it would take to build my own engine to run my game's logic but it is definetely possible, specially in the world of newer consoles, where they are pretty much just PCs running on a different architecture, and with given time, the modding community makes it even less harder by making new tools, such as lunar magic on windows, imagine how much the snes developers would love to have a modern computer with lunar magic, snesgss, some modern IDE and zsnes emulator, we have it even easier than the og devs nowadays dont get me started on uLaunchElf and modchips that can boot off of USB edit: just to clarify, im not saying bandwith is not amazing, just that you and i are just as amazing as him.

@@costelinha1867 thanks to some tools making Gameboy, NES, and Atari 2600 games are easy.

@@manciv510 the genesis also has really good tools, reason why it's targeted so much for new retro releases.

@@manciv510 is it illegal to make such tools?

God have mercy on him indeed if he decides to go that dark path.

he basically choose violence at this point.

Well not necessarily because you can literally run Unity on it if you want to.

developing a app/game on ps3 should be doable as long as you use the Sony's SDK and a game engine SDK like unity for ps3. Optimizing the game on PS3 is a different whole can of worms though or if your a game developer who wants to use you own game engine to PS3 from scratch, someone like Valve and Naughty Dog already experienced the pain process. This is why PS3 is filled with Unity Engine based games.

MGS4 which has *still* yet to be ported to anything and is the single most difficult game to emulate on RPCS3 *GOD HELP YOU*

Thanks a ton!

Fr but he saying facts

But can it run python

Yeah... I'm insane..

​@@Bandwidth_ytb Good luck with that :D Btw I wanted to thank you because your videos are what motivated me to try to code games for the PS1 too :)

@@asmoth360 same lol I even bought a ps1 last week and have been thinking about it for months since the first ps1 video came out.

We know. 😆

Yes - they can do things we mortals can not even imagine. And when they do something, we can nothing but pray :D

@@filipnovak2544 but programmers are also mortals

Someone falsely submited that me creating a minecraft server for you guys is a sponshorship. I spent like 15 seconds talking about a company who just gave me a minor discount. And someone went: Yup I'll tag all of it

Awesome! Thank you!

Or switch to UDP, which is not a bad idea for gaming stuff. But missing TCP_NODELAY was exactly my thought as well.

The wire is just hidden! :D

I'm using it as well. Don't know why the entire Minecraft part was tagged as a sponsorship.

The first GTA litteraly existed on the PS1... (though I admit it's a bit different than the following GTAs)

@@asmoth360 I know but that game sucks and is nauseatingly bad. Theres a reason GTA was irrelevant until GTA3

It just disappeared. The controller I used is still the original from that one but that's all I have left of it...

@@Bandwidth_ytb Huh, maybe someone you know got rid of it. Thanks for replying though! Great channel

I hope :D

PSP development is heavily documented and already has a ton of people who've made things, which means the quality would be really good, so yeah, i do hope he makes a PSP game.

Too overdone, Dreamcast is where it’s at

whoa now thats cool
