Yeah but his project is a labor of love, redrawing the textures has a certain charm to it as opposed to just hi-res textures. I think there are already multiple hi-res packs for MM, but Nerrel's is just on another level in my opinion

Nerrels art is soo good tho, besides that sort of dark ironic twist would be befitting someone so charmingly sarcastic

Also need more channels as good as nerrel, gimme some

Probably still worthwhile, his textures are a straight up improvement on and remix of the original.

So glad I found this channel and Nerrel’s one. His video on why majoras mask 3D is a bad remake make me realised that the art of the game is in the gameplay. Now when I see people screaming for « hd remakes » for zelda’s 35th birthday is no sens, the gameplay will change! So after that I can just agree on what Nintendo made for the mario 3d collection why mario 64 just in high res. Nerrel’s work on re texturing majora’s mask is insane

OutKast would be proud

I was actually planning on doing that lol

And gathering and collecting it for everyone is an amazing task.

yeah I think that sounds so cool

Makes me wanna do texture archaeology for the Touhou games. It sounds fun.

What is the end goal of it? Obviously to match a texture to its source, but why? What gain is there from this?

And here I always assumed video game texture graphics were all drawn and built by pixel artists or something.... The lesson here I guess is that everyone is lazy and it's ok to steal verything

So THATS why they used that wall back in my school at the playground backyard, i almost ran head first into one of those, but i protected myself by shielding my head with my whole right arm and my elbow took all of the damage.

There is this one stock sound effect I hear everywhere, but cannot find. It's this kind of of mechanical rumbling with the high pitched air escaping sound at the end. I've heard it anime, videogames, tv shows. Commonly used for mechanical doors, rotating platforms, cannons aiming.

HALF AS INTERESTING CONFIRMED??? 😳 😳 😳

omg yass the icon of Club Penguin is here

Why are you still using 2007? Damn

For sure. When I was studying vfx in college we used a lot of these random textures.

@@KawaiiCat2 Another great example is that one bear roar and wolf howl you hear in like every video game

you CANT leave it there. what have you found!!!

Some of us bought them when they were new. They were advertised in graphics/designer magazines or at trade shows. I still have hundreds.

@@houstonhelicoptertours1006 The concept of texture CDs or audio library CDs always seemed strange to me, especially the audio side of things. I'm always wondering how they made some of these sounds in the first place.

For sure! I have a story that might interest you, and others who also enjoy these sorts of videos. It's a long story but it starts like this: I used to watch this one VHS as a kid - the last time I watched it, I couldn't have been older than 6 or 7 years old. My mum sold it as I grew older, or gave it away, and claimed to have no memory at all of the video. But I clearly, clearly remembered parts of it - a 2d animation, sort of grey-looking with muted colours, and no dialogue, of a boy with a kite who looks after an injured white bird, and a live-action short film of a bear that gets trapped in a wooden cage in the woods and mice that rescue him, with character voiceovers of the animals. I thought I would never, ever find the videos I remembered, but I googled it over the years now and again and eventually, FINALLY, after over 20 years of searching, I finally found what I had been looking for! The VHS - and I grew up in the UK so I have no idea how we came by this - was a collection of short films by The Film Boards of Canada, a sort of government-run short film production company, from what I understand. You might also have heard of the band Boards of Canada, who I was a fan of and it was googling them that took me to the Film Boards website, since they take their name from the Canadian company. After searching the film boards archives, I finally found the two short films I remembered from my earliest years. I found the bear video first, and that is what confirmed for me that I was on the right path to find the animated video as well. But even knowing this, it took me a long, long time to find, because I wasn't sure, I didn't have the search terms I needed (like the title) and there were so many videos on the website that I would give up and come back to it every couple of years. I was probably around 21 years old when I found the bear video, but I didn't find the animation of the boy and the kite until I was around 28 years old! I was overjoyed! And when I linked it to my mum she was shocked that I even remembered it, let alone had managed to find it. But she remembered it too, once she saw it again, though she had not thought about it since I was very young. It's incredible what we can remember and what the internet can preserve and help us find. One of the biggest mysteries of my childhood was answered that day, and it had taken me well over 20 years to find it! But as long as websites continue to preserve as much as they can, I'm sure many people all over the world can reconnect with these half-remembered parts of their childhood, which can only be a great thing.

@@Eilavamp you should drop a link to those if you still remember where you found them.

Who cares

50 years ago the internet didn't exist - that would've been the 1970s. 1983 is when TCP was created, the internet protocol you're using right now to see these comments. There still wasn't a widespread infrastructure across the world. It was really just laboratories and universities & other gov. orgs with private LAN networks so that the local machines could communicate. 1993 is the generally accepted date that the internet became popular, although some people argue it was even later in the 90s. It was about 25 years ago that the internet became what we know it as today - give or take a couple years.

@Qimodis yeah ur right and so is the other guy sorry ‘bout that

I think it's perfectly reasonable to round up to 30 tbh, especially given it doesn't even matter in the context of the op

Perhaps but many of us genuinely love this era of gaming and want to learn more

It's not about making it sound dramatic, it's about knowing how to say why it's actually interesting

in the end, its all a matter of one thing: presentation.

I once watched a half-hour video on boxes. It was fantastic

The subject was interesting.

This kinda already happens, in fact it has a page on TVTropes called "Real Place Background." My favourite must be GTA V because a lot of the houses are replicas of real houses and there are people trying to find the buildings on GTA Forums

@Merraine Half-Life 2 takes basically all of the Citadel ambience from Zero-G's *Altered States* library... citadel_drone_loop3.wav, citadel_drone_loop4.wav - Overwhelming Feeling citadel_drone_loop5.wav - Leaving the Gas On citadel_drone_loop6 - Winter Bus Shelter, 45% slower field_loop2 - B-Movie Drug Head citadel_ambient_voices1.wav - One Too Many at the Fete, 40% slower citadel_ambient_scream_loop1.wav - Insect Infestation citadel_hit1_adpcm - Physco Train (sic?) 45% slower Basically all of the citadel_strange_talk sounds are short clips from Winter or Space Mission. Even the AR2 alt-fire sound is from this! Specifically Computachat 2, about 3 seconds in.

Metroid Prime music is completely, or nearly completely, stock and pre-set sounds. It’s all about what you do with the tools, eh.

I had a lot of stuff on gta garage! shout out to those days

In times when I got no internet, I repainted and replaced all gta 3 textures with ms paint. It was, um, coroful.

We are still doing it for RoSA Project Reborn, there is a texture hunt channel on our Discord.

yeah I am now learning graphics programming and I thought I'd have to learn how to make textures (because I dont want to buy pre-made ones and I also don't intend to pay for artists at this moment). Although I want to learn texture making, it's not my goal now, so it was pretty cool to see that professionals in the area just used actual photos, now I'm thinking of doing something like that.

@@undersc0r Nothing ever happens 🙄

I never thought twice about the game textures, but I did notice sound effects. When I realized that Duke Nukem Zero Hour's spider enemies (if I remember correctly) used the same sound that Turok 2 used for smaller dinosaurs, I figured out that game developers don't make new sounds for every single game they make.

@@bbbbbbb51 What

And how you thought they are made? Created pixel by pixel in paint.net? They are just only snapped and cropped to the resolution for cappable hardware to handle. Yeah and made to look seamless wich is not hard to do

@@marosis99 I expected images to be drawn in some way. Like how the enemy's and characters are designed from scratch. It's not a hard leap to think an artist drew a rock pattern or something.

@@dylandreisbach1986 yeah characters are biggest problem. I thing in old games they are created via panoramatic view somehow and then a bit changed to not looking like a person from real life. But in latest games they are using 3D graphics for that
