>Texture translates while surface oscillates

>>12007505
the fuck does that mean?

The way the water works in OP's image is that the surface just goes up and down while the same texture gets tiled across it. Weird thing to marvel over is what I'm saying.

It means he's cumming so(y) milk from his feminine peni.

The bot is really repeating lots of stuff lately.

Swimming is for nancy boys. Elite SAS members just give up and die.

forced meme. we get it, that one nintendo guy said "amazing water"

>>12007473
is this a mod? i don't remember something like that in the mainline epsiodes

>>12010889
That's E1M8, the first episode's secret level, so you maybe just missed it?

>>12009478
Game?

>>12011339
>filename "Unreal Gold Ruins"
Unreal Gold

>>12011469
Was on mobile, forgot to check the filename at the time

>>12011326
>first episode's secret level
yup...didn't know about that...

>>12011863
imagine if we continued in a world where the CPU was the most important...

>>12011873

The gaming world would be a better place?

>>12011912
it'd probably be a cheaper place

i don't have a gif, but paper mario 64 had some spiffing water, i tell you hwat

fucked up in most emulators

This one isn't a game, but I'll post it anyway.

>>12013015
this old gif always makes me nostalgic

>>12007505
Still works that way in every single modern game.

>>12011469
nice black water in this game

>>12007465 (OP)
I love early 3d graphics

>>12011469
but who was gold and why were they unreal?

>>12013210
Gold was a protagonist of the hit video game series, Pokemon, particularly Pokemon Gold/Silver.
He is unreal because by the nature of being a fictional video game character, he is not real.

>>12013015
Palette shifting is such a cool trick.

>>12013019
how would someone even create this

>>12013836
More Unreal kino. >>12013836 is Project Zephon right?

>>12013015
Did 3D graphics arrive too soon?

>>12007756
Wwhat game is this? looks familiar

You’re all going to hate me for saying this, but I’m so glad my first experience with Blood was in VR. I wanted to play this game my whole life but never had the means to, then was finally able to on a Quest 2 and it was perfection

Captcha: VRVRX

If I was rich I would try to find and hire a bunch of talented game dev guys who were around from 1995 to 2005 to make some kind of amazing retro looking game that has some of the magic you see here. I wouldn’t even care if it made a profit frankly. Just something that could be appreciated for decades to come.

>>12014586
It is easier than ever to just make your own game, so you could always just try to learn stuff and then noodle away at your own thing. It could be a small but nice project.

>>12014615
yeah I know but there is a surplus of indie devs making shitty early 3d games that have some of the visual appeal but don’t have the soul of older games.


I wonder what sort of genres would be best for this. there is just a magic to the old graphics from 1995-2005 I appreciate a lot. I think that’s part of the appeal of older videogames frankly— because they looked good enough to be impressive but not realistic enough to seem like “real life” so you get like you were exploring a different world. That’s my theory anyway. That was obviously lost around the 360 ps3 gen.

>>12014763
There isn't really any one genre, just 3D games from 1990-2000.
It's the result of being limited by the hardware constraints of the time and using creativity to work within them.

wasnt there a few youtube channels where a guy just showed off different games early 3d graphics like these webms? but it would be a video for one game?

>>12014212
hidden and dangerous

>>12013313
very slowly

>>12014403
what's this?

>>12007465 (OP)
If you want to see water gameplay done right... and even comfortable to play, Capcom's The Little Mermaid on the NES is it.

>>12015347
Pocahontas on Genesis.

Comfy

>>12007465 (OP)
nice water
>>12007469
eh water
>>12007473
wtf water
>>12007483
that's a dolphin
>>12013012
nice looking water
>>12009478
very good looking water

>>12007469
That just looks comical. The top being a water-looking flat texture, then the "waterfall" being laughably pixelated and moving much faster, then the past below which is flat again yet still pixelated and moving fast.

>>12018307
interesting observation but you forgot one simple thing

>>12018312
What, you're the high king of Skyrim?

>>12018320
not retro

>>12018320
that i simply never asked ;^ ) heh got em!

>>12018339
Skyrim existed in TES lore before the cutoff date.

>>12007465 (OP)
Comfy thread. I fucking love water in video games.

>>12013875
I always thought it was acid, until someone pointed out the Hindu statues, then I realised it was just water.

>>12019574
wow what game

>>12020091
It IS acid, it has a stage fatality where you uppercut your opponent into it, and it dissolves them down to their bones.

>>12020215
the joke is India

>>12014214
Good looking water
>>12019574
Nice water
>>12013846
Amazing looking water in this game
>>12013012
Amazing water for a Saturn game
>>12011314
Ok looking water in this game

Not very good water

Very ugly looking water

Bad perspective on this water

That one is from a screensaver/background pack from back in the 90s, it was all these fanciful landscapes which were animated purely through color cycling. Some of them even had day and night cycling, which could be synced to your computer's clock and all.

I believe these are all from that set:
