Thread 720640036

What tech would /v/ rather have in a game? Water physics or Raytracing?

>>720640036 (OP)
water

It took me far longer than I care to admit to understand that image.

>>720640036 (OP)
water with no swimming

IT"S AI SHIT

You now remember Hydrophobia.

>>720640036 (OP)
water

>>720640647
i 'member
interesting game, i should go actually finish it instead of fucking around in the tech demo start

>>720640542
Looks like standard photoshop to me, but I'm not a retard so what do I not know.

>>720640542
ai is based tho

>>720640542
Your own link disproves your spergout, retard

>>720640647
Even the tits were physics-based!

Watertracing or ray physics? Which way white man?

>>720640036 (OP)
Water physics, but good. I don't want a raytracing tier knockoff that tanks performance, and I want it to have meaningful interactivity with the environment

>>720640036 (OP)
it being a good game in the first place.
Truly the ultimate lost technology.

>>720640036 (OP)
god i hate normies. fuck this shit. fuck that dress. morons.

Fuck you now I want cheese cake.

>>720640647
Some nobody game studio that made nothing but snooker games somehow managed to come up with this back in 2010, surely someone can make something more impressive in 2025. I'm not saying that Hydrophobia is a god tier game or anything because it's definitely not but come the fuck on.

>>720640036 (OP)
A sequel to this

It'd be so satisfying to do this with ethanol. The PC would have the bath of its life. But it'd waste so much ethanol.

>>720643363
Why not distilled water?
2bh, neither that or ethanol baths would be good for it. You shouldn't overdo the ethanol.

>>720640036 (OP)
Both? Water physics is a CPU workload. Raytracing is a GPU workload. They largely don’t conflict.

>>720641995
READ WHAT YOU FUCKING POSTED, UNDERAGE FAGTARD FUCK OFF

>>720643530
It un-distills itself with all the gunk and it dries up a lot longer.

>>720643241
I wouldn't be surprised if a game like this wasn't possible on modern day game engines. We're so ass backwards that physics-based anything besides lighting is lost technology.

>>720643848
I have no idea, ngl.
But eth would be the same if you don't wipe it regularly I'd imagine.

>>720643241
My nigger. I loved that game.

>>720640542
Looks like a slice taken out of a really nasty pie.

>>720643241
This game is fucking weird.

Fuck I'm old.

>>720640036 (OP)
raytracing, water is for fish

>>720640036 (OP)
I've made something like that a couple of times before so you only got me for a second.

>>720640036 (OP)
Neither? Neither. Neither is good.

>>720643530
>You shouldn't overdo the ethanol.
It depends. If you get some valuable electronics wet and have good ethanol on hand than a bath gets rid of water thus reducing risk of corrosion so it's a great thing to do.
>>720644007
It also gets gunked up but it evaporates away relatively quick (taking some dirt with it if you're lucky) so less risk of a missed drop under some capacitor than with now-dirty water.

I just want cheesecake and fishing now. OP is just promoting Cabelas and big cheesecake. Don't believe his lies.

Water physics is absolutely critical if it affects gameplay.
Like stealth games.
Raytracing is unrealistic light, so it's irrelevant to gameplay.

>>720640036 (OP)
Any sort of cool real time interactive physics would be better than how raytracing is used right now.

>>720643556
>Water physics is a CPU workload.
If you're mimicking a wave effect like in the OP, Sea of Thieves, Batman Arkham Knight, you're more than likely using a shader effect on the GPU to simulate and displace the vertices on the mesh. And if you're straight up simulating an actual fluid, I think it's still preferred to use GPUs like this guy. https://youtu.be/_8Ed8ET9gBU
