Off Camera Secrets | Animal Crossing + City Folk - Boundary Break 

Hey folks! To see the source of the Gif from Kotaku. Its in this newer episode for Wild world and New Leaf ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YjtfQoyrRRs.html

"If you can recall correctly, when you visit a friend in accf" I would probably have remembered such thing if I had some damn friends as a kid

The villager is a harmless default person that the fans made evil

You really couldn't see flowers in that calendar? I saw flowers straight away.

Cell Phones were already massively popular and ubiquitous in Japan when the first AC game launched.

9:50 in a LOT of Nintendo games, textures are mirrored across models. This has actually given a lot of people making texture packs some issues since they're limited to how detailed they can make it. It's a smart move by Nintendo with the limitations of their consoles, though. Just have one texture that can be flipped over to the opposite side!

My body could not comprehend this and i vomited in result. thank

6:01 Shesez: "What's on the calendar? Again, I have no idea..." Me: Flowers, maybe? 6:13 Shesez: "... *the inside of a human body?* " Me: .....well ok, i guess

The calendar looks like red flowers on a green background, white centers for the pollen center

You should do one for Silent Hill 3, I always wanted to see how that lady behind the hospital glass looked like...

It stands for choo choo...uh...16

1:57 they even animated the phone to flip closed🧐

After that intro, I don't think I'll sleep again.

I noticed that sneaky Pocahontas reference at 6:52 "let's look once more just around the river bend." 👍🏻. Looks like we got a fellow Disney fan. Over the web high five to you my friend! 🙋🏻

that intro needs more k.k. dirge honestly the villager would be scarier if he had a gyroid face, which you CAN do in the original.

Awesome episode with cool secrets! After working on this episode, it's enticed me to put Animal Crossing on my backlog. Thanks again for the shout out!

"It's a bus... driven by... *KAPP'N!"* Yeah, Kapp'n is obsessed with- Wait, HE CAN DRIVE A BUS!?

I find it really cool that Rover even flips the phone closed before putting it away, an unnecessary detail when considering you'd never see that side of the animation. Due to the low resolution of the N64 and the television it needs to be played on, I always thought he was just grabbing a phone that was on the wall.

Everyone: "better check out this episode before nintendo takes it down"

10:06 a saloon in animal crossing I WISH! but that my friend is a salon, not a saloon.

yet another great boundary break! good job! and i love the intro

Aurum brought me to this series and IM SO GLAD HE DID. i was always fascinated with what was outside the boundaries. This has now become my new fav series lol

I think the City Folk town hall calendar has red flowers on it.

I soooo want an over-the-shoulder view for the next Animal Crossing. Would be so much more immersive.

ah, yes, the fish in Animal Crossing come from T̢ ̸ H ̡E̵ ͏ ̨ ̧V̧ ҉O ̴I D and simply swim downstream into fishing range. The more you know~

As a kid, I used to think the cliff areas were other towns, and I wished SO BADLY to go up there.

1:26 lmao in the most Caucasian voice ever, "When Rover leaves to.. help a brother out..." 😂💀

How can you not have 1,000,000 subs? This series is awesome and needs to be seen by more people

This is the boundary break I really wanted to see

11:24 Not gonna lie that is adorable!

Wow, Aurum sent me here (through one of his videos) and I'm loving boundary break! For a while now, I've been trying glitches that get you out of the map in games just to see what lies outside, but this takes that to a whole new level! I'm going to watch other Boundary Breaks tomorrow, but for now know that this is awesome! ^-^

thanks for the nightmares...

The intro left me like: "OMFG What am I watching?!" The rest of the vid left me like: "Well, this is ok"

I did not expect for these to be so interesting!

I love your videos so much, they bring back nostalgia and a feeling of just knowing more and I really like that. Thanks!

I can explain what happened with the triangular texture piece on the roof around 9:50. Texture changes are expensive, so you want to draw as much with a single texture as possible. Furthermore they introduce a seam where the same vertex would need to be stored multiple times. A seam is present if either the vertices share coordinates in space but don't share the texture coordinates, or if they must be drawn as a separate mesh because they carry a different texture. So what they did, they had ONE texture for the whole roof including the protruding section. This texture is mirror mapped on both sides of the roof, so top vertices share the same texture coordinate and no seam needs to be made, then the protruding section gets the face part of the texture with the window drawn on it, while hiding the unsightly window on the roof plane. The sides of the protruding section also carry the same texture, stretched - it's the triangular sections above the window part. There is simply no clean texture for this blue roof otherwise. An extension of this technique to the extreme is atlasing, can be seen in that one Pokemon game you showed, where they'd just merge all the textures they needed for a room into one, put it onto the whole room, and the proceed making seams and shifting around texture coordinates until the whole visible part of the room was textured correctly. The most universal answer to "I don't understand why they did it? They didn't have to" is because of habits, one gets to develop particular sets of habits when working under particular constraints. Indeed, all buildings should go a bit into the ground to avoid aliasing, they still do in most games, and you can just as well terminate them with one vertex underneath instead of a whole polygon, because why not if the texture allows. On the vases, they used the termination vertex also for the bottom part of the shape.

Came here from Aurum and instantly subscribed! Awesome video! :)

wtf i always thought that was a built in phone when rover calls tom nook on the train

I’ve been bamboozled. All this time, I thought that train had a pay phone between cabins.

Thanks for doing all these! I can't wait to make my own videogames, and it's thoroughly fascinating to see how all these games actually work!

I love Animal Crossing, thank you so much xD

the moment you said that, i had to go listen to the whole pocahontas soundtrack

Once again, magnificent video! Sadly once again not much to see, but you still make it very entertaining.

It's been cool seeing this channel grow. I hope it continues to.

Those SFM shorts at the start are amazingly! This series is amazing! I am gonna stay subscribed!

So couple things: I really like this series, but some of your terminology is way off. You said the devs "re-rendered" the bus in a lower poly/lower detail, while in a round about way this is true, since the bus is "re-rendered" every frame, it doesn't make sense. They remade it or remodelled it. Rendering is the process that the game goes through every frame to get the image to display on screen. (to rend literally means to tear. ie: to render a 3d model is to tear away the 3rd dimension to turn it into a 2d image) Anyways, keep up the good work, exploring the outside of maps like this was one of the biggest things that got me into game development (PS: try the halo series, there are tons of amazing and cool hidden areas and stuff, and a lot can actually be accessed without hacks at all :P at least for the first 3 games)

Literally just watched 10 of your videos straight ... subscribed ... I like

I hope you get to 1 Million subscribers. I love the content of your channel! :D

cool high quality vids :o gg wel done! m8 earned yourself a sub

Woah this video is... AMAZING! How do you do that?

That opening sums up me on tortimer island

9:48 I know, I'm years late, but that tile appears that way on the roof because it just shares the same texture information as the other part of the roof. It's not that they went out of their way to do that - it's actually the opposite - They didn't bother to make a new texture for that part of the roof at all

Don't forget about Wild World

0:07 that is the sound effect is from when you get a character upgrade in Sonic Adventure 2... God I'm so lonely

Hey! I just discovered your channel thanks to a plug in Aurum's latest video. Just wanted to say that I'm loving this video series. It's exactly the kind of thing I've been interested in since I was a kid. Being able to see hidden things in games is always so intriguing! Keep up the great work! (Also, any plans on covering Splatoon? There are so many things to get a good look at!)

Easily my favorite commentary from Shesez from any episode

THERE ARE ANIMAL CROSSING PLUSHIES?!

Those are red flowers on the calendar

To be fair about the cell phone thing, even the N64 version was released in 2001, just a few months before the GameCube launched.

City Folk looks amazing in HD! It's so nice to look at! :)

0/10 didn't look up Isabelle's skirt

Why did you haven't check under the K.K's guitar if it is all right ?

I've always wanted to explore beyond the regular camera view in these games. Great videos!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I always wondered that it might look like a cylinder all together... Thank you, this is so neat.

Chu-chu 16 is best train

hey shesez, in your poll Wii Sports is clearly going to out vote Dark souls but will you bring dark souls back for another poll in the future? i bet there is so much hidden stuff you can find in DS

Great video! This entire series is great!

Animal crossing looks really cool with the over the shoulder mode

OH MY GOD, YOUR PROFILE PICTURE! AYY MIKE!

Me...

I'd been wondering about who did your elaborate intros, so I'm glad you've told us. :)

nice vid, I'll probably end up bingewatching the series at some point.

Where did you got that Star Fox plushie??

notification squad

I love this series so nice to watch

I smiled to hard when I saw this once again in my reccomended

Omg yas

Flowers ;)

Thank you so much man! Love Animal Crossing. Awesome video! Love your channel. Just subscribed :-)

These videos make me smile.

animal crossing series? more like no new leaf!

what's with the murderer villager crap

That camera angle at the museum is very artsy.

I like your vids before I even watch them, because you haven't let me down yet.

You had parents that would just come in and press buttons on your console huh. My mom would incessantly hit esc until the one time it actually worked and I smacked her wrist away so hard, it hit the wall and sprained it. She never fucking touched my shit again. Never should have taught me karate either, those reflexes are uncontrollable.

Good to know the original kid was such a fan of mascara and mold, what a personality trait we've been missing out on FF writers.

7:55 might be the case, makes sense (i used similar technique though i didn't go into cones, i just retained the originall shape), although i suspect it also might just be an artifact of the vertex shader which makes the world look round/cylindrical.

I love Wild World so much. Great video and.... Thanks!

kudos for mentioning the series had previous releases outside the US

I love the series and your t-shirt!

1:10 that pig thing in the back had me horrified as a kid😂

Why don't these videos have more views?...Awesome job!

Due to your comment about the "Great Crossing Wars" is to why I made my island resort in NH based on a retired battlefield... xD

Normally I wouldn't watch videos like this because when I watch videos where you do a breakdown of out of range stuff or glitches, I feel like it breaks the game in my opinion knowing that some of the stuff is just an allusion to make it look like something else from the games perspective. I like the way this was showed off because it pretty much shows how they made the game...

"meanwhile, back at the gamecube version of animal crossing, pure chaos ensues!" sounds in-character for the first game.

6:52 Beyond the shore, Where the gulls fly free!!

I hate to say it, but the letters on the train number thing actually stands for the railway the engine works on. For example, the Flying Scotsman's number data is LNER4472 because the number it was given was 4472 and it worked (because it now is under the jurisdiction of the national railway museum) on the LNER. LNER stands for London North Eastern Railway, for anybody wondering.

I find it so funny when in Wild world Cap'n's lil bobbly boat falls off the dash and Cap'n panics

I can provide another explanation for the cones below buildings. This could have been done to save polygons. It takes more triangles to make a rectangular prism than it does to make a triangular prism.

I honestly thought the dark void sky for the GameCube’s over the shoulder view looked kind of cool.
