Nopy

Thought I was done with this, but I tinkered with the subdivider yet again to free it from broken edges that may "leak skybox". (Patched those situations before with very thin triangles.) But totes worth the revisit - polycount down. Vid: "V"s everywhere travelling with the LOD.

@Visuwyg Yeah it's my own game, not PSX hardware but a custom engine with the same sort of limitations.

@qristofer Wow, is this your own game? Or an original vintage PS1 game? I genuinely can't tell!

Fun times

@Hennejoe Looks like the effect is achieved by copying a 16x1 portion of the screen around and behind the afterburner for palette-usage when drawing a 16x5 semi-transparent rectangle with a plasma looking texture at the same spot. The whole cycle repeats for 8 or so times per engine.

Best I can tell, it's emitting slightly altered textures of the engine at full blast with some more intense dithering

Someone pointed out this effect in Ace Combat 3 to me What a brilliant way to replicate a heat shimmer/mirage effect #psx

I love how responsive the PSP UI still feels after 20 years

@amidnightmedium I also gave it another shot recently, thinking I'd grown into a more patient man... I was wrong.

Behold, after 14 years, I return to Resident Evil 6. Lets finish it this time.

@mankrip @Colonthreee perfect vintage, for chernobyl radiation to settle in the soil and add flavor to the wheat

@Colonthreee Still fresh after 40 years!

Communist noodles from 1987 are better than expected actually, and one of my first introductions to instant noodles. :3~

@FrogmanDev Luvit.

@Windows adding or removing context menu items should be as easy as right-clicking a context menu item and "remove" or "add new". Don't make me use regedit all the time. Or install some fishy third party program.

@Colonthreee notchifications

The notch-effect...! 🫷((ÔwÔ))🫸

@redroacter @e_ohkushi Do you use Blender? You can adjust a Camera's focal length there (in millimeters even). Looking at the camera in 3D view, you'll see the distance to the "lens" increase while the angle shrinks. It's simplified (rect-linear projection, no real lens etc) but it gives you an idea.

@e_ohkushi Sorry, i am stupid. What is this supposed to mean? Camera lenses?

The only interruption, Youtube, is your "Experiencing interruptions?"-popup.

In K&L2, bullets originate from guns instead of the camera, so one must compensate for offset/distance when aiming. This threw a lot of players off unfortunately, but I sorta liked that extra layer. Added to challenge and made it different from Gears etc.

@Textilismusic Aah, I should have guessed RR. I did play the first RR and the PSP games, never RR4, but still. But yeah, locked angle makes does make sense, same with Wipeout.

Hi there! This game is primarily inspired by the Ridge Racer Series, which uses a similar drift and collision mechanic. It's kind of necessary for a game like this to have a collision system designed to pull the car away from the wall without disturbing its rotation. If you look at this example from RRT4 here, you can see it behaves similar to my set up. And if you go up the thread you can also see the problem I was encountering before. Also vertex lighting is the best, i love it!! I just need to figure out to do light projection textures on the front and rear of the car as well, for the whole completed look.

Just wanted to share a few updates, I got specular highlights now, and I've been working on the collision handling system. I think its just about how the other games do it. Basically it just resets the car's angular velocity to zero every collision, but I also have it gravitate towards the spline. No more getting stuck on walls for me.

It's alive! Left to dry and now it works again. Amaze!

washed my mp3-player fffffffff

@greayson2532 "𝙷𝚎𝚕𝚕 𝚘𝚗 𝚂𝚊𝚝𝚞𝚛𝚗" <3 Can't speak much on what it'd entail. Maybe a from-scratch-version less like PC, designed from the ground up for Saturn. OG Sat. v. probably had to change a lot as it is to fit in memory, but I haven't looked into it.

@qristofer I would love to see a new and improved version of Doom for Saturn Smoothness, stable frame rate. Dynamic lighting. Much more refined sound Physical format, official from id Software, approved and signed by John Romero. What do you think? x.com/i/status/20263…

@valigo Yeah, a gaming CEO probably doesn't need to play hardcore games every day in order to support game developers really well. At the same time

Why are people mad about new Xbox CEO? Xbox was abysmal dogshit ever since Xbox One reveal in 2013 with "tv tv call of duty tv tv tv" disaster. The only "good" from the last 15 years of Xbox is slightly above mid controller. She can't do worse because the bar is on the ground

File Pilot 0.7.0 is out! Drag & drop from external apps and ZIP archives is finally here, plus dropping files onto other files. Also launching the public roadmap toward v1. filepilot.tech/roadmap
