That's some fucking hax man.

It's not real 3D.
Just a good use of camera and view.
>>338832039
Holy shit this was GBA?
>>338833853
So what, it still manages to emulate a 3d environment on a systems which generally was not able to do so in the slightest
Someone did normal mapping for the DS as well.
Can't find the video.
>>338832039
Looks like shit
GBA was surprisingly capable system in the right hands.

Underage millennial piece of shit. You have no respect or appreciation for the work laid out before you. Born into a world with real-time physically based lighting, high polygon counts and texture resolution. You have no idea what it's like to witness the sheer will and determination to innovate and progress to where we are today. You just assume everything has to be as it is now, and if it's not it's shit. Fuck you. Fuck you and your fucking hipster haircut. Fuck you and your smartphone mobile shit. Fuck you and everything that you are.

It's "impressive" but also looks fucking disgusting and unplayable. Things just end up looking awful when devs push such low-res and simplistic hardware. Even if it looks more "impressive" it still looks worse than any simplistic game on the system suited to the resolution.

I know it's technically impressive for a GBA game but holy shit my eyes.
>>338836771
There's nothing really weird about this, though.
Since the camera will move and zoom in and won't be static at that specific range, the models and textures would need to be of a higher quality. Since the inherent resolution is so low it's still manageable.
The N64 port of RE2 is pretty fucking technology

I think this mostly uses pre rendered 3D sprites in a 3D world.
Doom uses ray casting across a 2D floor plan similar to Wolfenstein3D but with a bunch of other tricks to simulate different heights
>>338837332
nintendos next handheld better higher than 100p this time.
>>338834389
what is this
>>338837170
>>338837287
Holy crap
>>338837454
The point is to show much hidden detail there is behind the low resolution you fucking retard.
And not all NDS games have it. It simply depends on whether the devs left high-quality assets in the game (even though it reaped no benefit).
>>338837527
What's the difference between this and the normal DS one?

But thats boring. Its more interesting to look at older tech achieving things greater than it should.

I still think this is pretty amazing for the GBA, how they managed with two different background sprites (one for the ground and one for the "wall") and multiple angles for sprites to simulate 3d...
But seeing that asterix video was pretty dope, too.
>>338838932
I am not sure I follow. What counts as "technology" to you? Uncharted 4 screenshots?

>>338839981
No 3d is real 3d.
It's just using mathematical formulas to project vertex onto a screen.
Doom just did it in a less computationally expensive way, with some caveats.
Although looking at the video, it looks like a normal rasterizing pipeline you'd find in modern hardware: the worl seems to be triangle-based, you can see many different shapes in there.
The textures just look like garbage because of inaccurate UV mappings interpolation, I think.
>>338840270

Still tons of issues and speed is ass.
>>338839803
Yes.
>>338840308
>No 3d is real 3d.
3d means triangle based generation in gaming, noob.
>>338840270
You can emulate enough to make pretty screenshots, but not enough for the games to be actually playable.
>>338840568
And somehow you don't see any triangle in that asterix game ?
You might want to get you eyes checked.

I still don't know whether to condemn or commend this. On one hand they're so fucking lazy they can't even animate a tram moving like ten metres, proving the incompetent abilities of Bethesda's animation team even more.
On the other hand it's a great way to save time by just making it a fucking hat so you don't have to animate shit, not to mention it's fucking hilarious. Has anyone ever triggered the cutscene and used tfc to go under the floor and look at the person running?

It had droplets flying, pools collecting and dispersing and all sort of cool shit.

>>338841121
That's an engine limitation IIRC.
>>338841257
todd pls
>>338841190
If I remember correctly that shit was all Nvidia exclusive tech. Maybe that's why it's missing in the final game.
>>338841257
No it's not. Plenty of games with good animations run on Gamebryo. It's a Bethesda limitation.
>>338841143
a quad is really just 2 triangles stuck together.
>>338841464
But it processes in quads.
>>338841508
exactly, it had to process 2 triangles stuck together at a time.
>>338837332
>>338836771
WOULD YOU STOP POSTING THIS SHIT!
Left are native resolution upscaled with Nearest Neighbor. It is INCREDIBLY inaccurate to how a NDS, or anything else displays the image. These images are ONLY useful for demonstrating quality of image for upscaling on LCDs between nearest neighbor vs. internal resolution upscaling.
The extreme level of jaggies and loss of detail are results of nearest neighbor. On a display that can show native resolution, the image is MUCH sharper. To make a REAL comparison to see how detail has actually improved, you'd need a shader that replicates the detail and effects of the NDS screen. No such shader exists.
Same thing with old consoles. Peopel post HD screenshots vs. nearest neighbor, and people gasp how ANYONE could play the games like that. But the games NEVER looked like that on CRTs. A little blurry, sure, but never that level of jaggies.
>>338841561
But to the system it's not 2 triangles. It's just a single unit, and that unit is a quad.
It's not "processing 2 triangles"
>>338841619
People are lazy. You can't expect more.
>>338841561
>I'm expert in computer graphics and everything has to be triangle
>>338841561
quad is two triangles in geometry, that's true
but sega's graphics processor doesn't know what is a "triangle", its basic primitive was quad and it operates on quads, it doesn't process triangles
>>338841619
Thanks for capitalizing important words for me senpai
>>338837332
I have to agree with >>338841619, I have Prime: Hunters and it doesn't look nearly that jaggy on actual hardware.
>>338841650
I'm sorry I was just being an ass, in all honestly when it comes to polygons I feel as though quads create weird angles that don't end up looking as nice as tris do.

I'm sorry, I haven't heard of Rockstar, Voilition or Ubisoft animating their trains in by putting a fucking hat on a pedestrian and having him noclip run under the tracks, you fucking apologist cunt.
>>338843857
you don't know shit about videogame development, it's a smart trick the likes of which have been used for decades
>>338843857
Probably because their games that feature trains don't have them as just a 10 second set piece where animating an entire train would be useless. Would you even notice it if it weren't for /v/ memes?
>>338843857
But that's a genius way to get a train in a game. Its not like the player would ever know unless he looked under the hood.
>>338843857
Re-purposing shit for uses it wasn't quite intended to have is pretty common in game development. The whole thing is just an illusion anyway.
If Bethesda had never released their mod tools nobody would ever know how they did the train and it wouldn't matter that they didn't.
>>338843857

One is a clever trick that you might not see through without being told, the other is just a necessary but boring trick where the entire secret is just the magician distracting you to keep you from looking where they don't want you to.

Rendering a character and room twice at the same time is a drain on resources. It's a nice touch when they do it, but sometimes the hardware isn't up to snuff.

Valve has done similar things in TF2
Remember when Crusader Crossbow fired an actual arrow similar to Huntsman bow? That is because Crossbow was just Huntsman that had a new model to cover it.
That´s why it also fired from height of Medics eyes rather than waist as he really holds it.
Tank in MvM is basically a bomb cart from Payload game mode. One person found out that when you spawn tank in payload it automatically starts following the traintracks.
This gave birth to a mod called "Stop that tank"
Pyros flamethrowers visible particles do not match the actual damaging flames that are invisible.
Melee weapons as a whole are just very short range bullets. Also the thrid person animations do not match the first person animations.
Righteous Bison and Pomson 6000 use flock of flamethrower particles as a projectile. This is why both weapons can light up Snipers Huntsman bow arrows. It also explains the huge hitboxes those projectiles have.
>>338846610
Do demos even count? I mean, they literally exist to be TECHNOLOGY
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CR0MWpOK1RU
Okay, this isn't much technology, but this game really amazes me to this day. Music tracks are also like 8+ minutes long.
Really hard as fuck though.
>>338846980
>Melee weapons as a whole are just very short range bullets
thats extremely apparent with Dayz and every arma mod that implements melee
where TF2 handles it fine, the arma engine was never ment to have a melee system and is therefore extremly clunky in that regard
>Also the thrid person animations do not match the first person animations.
yeah duh, we know about CS, or rainbox six siege is a great example, where models are not representing the hitboxes
on the other hand we have arma that do the oposite, and star citizen, where you have, what you see is what you get approach

Original DS had a GPU, but the main CPU was a 66MHz ARM9, with 4MB RAM and 600 KB VRAM. It does have a coprocessor though, 33MHz ARM7 IIRC.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0rStdHowAg

>>338842625
you would have to find a way to have the lower resolution scale up to your screen-size without bilinear filtering, and stay linear instead.
>>338848761
On the DS you can do whatever on the ARM7, it's a coprocessor. But official games all use a premade binary that does a few fixed functions like sound or touchscreen.
>>338848989
The point is that the DS is a direct upgrade on the GBA, since it can do backwards compatibility in hardware.
>>338842156
this is not impressive at all though
>>338838397

their whole M.O. is to cast ultimate wizardry on a console while it's on its lasts legs. They develop games for each system for fucking ever and then they blow every other game out of the water visually. Nintendo needs to recruit this company in house, Retro Games style.

Just having a video isn't impressive because it's not 3D rendered in real time, especially when the sound quality is so fucking godawful like it is in Cannon Fodder. The only thing that makes KHCoM more impressive is the quality of the video but, it's still just a prerendered video.
Alone in the Dark is also not very impressive because it is prerendered backgrounds with a size changing sprite, something point and click games have been doing for decades on less capable tech.

Granted, but the Metro car is a good solution.
Fallout's engine can't handle vehicles without a lot of reworking and having to recode a large part of the engine for a 10 second set-piece in a DLC is unthinkable. It's not buggy or glitchy like most quick fixes Bethesda uses and would probably go unnoticed were it not for mod tools.

I only said "near" because I wasn't 100% certain they were a solid 60fps, even though I was fairly sure.
In any case, they're magical. Nowadays they'd be rendered with all sorts of shitty post-processing where dips below 20fps would be considered acceptable. Very unfortunate.
Actually, that's probably not true. Retro is a fucking great developer. I doubt they'd fall into the same pitfalls as a lot of modern developers.

They use DX libraries because there's no other way to get it to run on PC hardware. If they had programmed it for one specific setup and hit the metal, it still could have been done in 96KB .

There's always some debate and lack of consensus on where it starts to where it ends, personally I just prefer to keep it simple.
I think they started counting in WW2 in roughly around 1945 and adding 20 years so that's why it always has goofy timelines

That's used by amateur game devs who don't have the means or coding experience to make proper version of the object or vehicle.
Which is something Bethesda should be past by now. They aren't a fucking fledgling indie game studio. They have million dollar budgets for their games.

Congratulations, I've spent better part of my life programming on a ZX Spectrum clone (although I have no idea what has that anything to do with current PCs) and I'm fairly confident that implementing all of the DX stuff their executable is simply just calling would require well over a few kbytes, even if you targeted a single machine.

Yeah only the 3DS version was sprites, Wii was modeled.
This thread conforts me in the idea that maybe I should stop caring entirely about new games, and just eternally play old games.

That game is fucking eerie. That mix of pixelated tiles and 3D leaves me speechless. And those on foot sections almost had me fall off my chair.
It's as if video games had evolved differently in an alternate reality.
I'll spend the rest of the night playing this shit.
>>338855481
Yeah nintenshit was not getting the processor and graphics to power up a 720p handheld in 2011. Hell, I have doubts they'll do in 2016.
Pay in mind the Vita had pretty high end hardware for early 2012 and many of it's games are not native res.
>>338870684
To be fair, if you're young and not experienced in this, most of the games back then that piggybacked and marketed their technical prowess *usually* ended up being shit, they essentially would fall in love with smell of their own farts and never focused on actually making a fun game. Specially in the west.
Weirdly enough Japan's corporate culture would pair up great artists with great engineers and it all went well.

Those are Screen-Space reflections, not REAL reflections. And by "real reflections", i mean rendering the scene a seconded time from the 'reflections' point of view, and then superimposing that rendered image on the objects texture. The source engine has real reflections for water, for example.
In the most simplistic terms, Screen-Space reflections take the already rendered image, flip it, and then project it on a floor/wall/ceiling/etc. to give the illusion of reflections. It's a relatively new technique that is being used quite often now. It's very cheap because you don't need to redraw the scene twice or more, and only involves some fairly basic image processing.
The obvious flaw with this is that if you are facing the reflection head-on, it won't work because it doesn't have information outside of the already rendered image. Boot up DOOM, go to where you see a reflection on the floor, and slowly start looking down. You will see the "reflection" start to fade away. However, you do the same thing with water in Half-Life 2, and it will work in all situations.
Nobody read this wall of text :)
>>338869845
It still does have it's tech, the sound driver witch Jesper Kyd programed for his composing needs. And used for other titles he had worked on.
Similar to Matt Furniss.
>>338871153
Well I'm not quite young anymore, and it's been some time since I've been really thinking about this.
I'm well aware that old games rarely ever combined technology and good gameplay, but neither do modern games, and they rarely pack either.
>>338852481
>Fallout's engine can't handle vehicles without a lot of reworking
Then maybe they should have thought about putting vehicles in the first place when they started working on it and not be lazy as fuck?
>>338855481
I know I'm alone in this and obscured by nostalgia goggles but I rather have it this way.
I have a huge boner for low res in portable devices and I know for sure that the next portable console I'll stop being able to see the pixel grid. It will essentially be the end of pixelshit for consoles, and the 3DS is the last hurrah.
Feels sad man, pixels will be gone for good.
>>338856084
>>338864392
Almost sure that's done to grant stable good FPS since that matters more than actual graphics.
Super Mario Maker also has sprites instead of 3D models for the New version theme so the screen can get cluttered all it wants (and it fucking will since retarded kids love to do so)
>>338871021
Have they gotten the music in Doom working yet?
>>338867390
As the guy above said, it's all screen space. Anything that is reflected has to be in view. Killing Floor 2 does this too. For a game with real mirrors in 2016 look at Hitman, though there's very few of them outside of toilets. In the Paris mission there is a hall where there is one in a bigger environment, but it's noticeably low resolution. "Real" mirrors are still a pretty hard problem.

You don't need to reimplement DX or OpenGL drivers/APIs. Instead you hit the registers of the graphic cards directly in the code. No abstraction layers, no drivers. Of course, it's pretty damn hard to do that, considering the ridiculous number of registers in a modern GPU (which is why graphic drivers are always full of bugs), but if one had the time to do that, 64K intros would still be the same in terms of content.

I might be, they're still following the late Gunpei Yokoi's moto "Lateral Thinking with Withered Technology", so you know for sure they're going to use old and cheap hardware.
The question is, is that cheap hardware the display as well.
