Warcraft 2.Age of Empires. Done. By the time Empire Earth came along to complete the logical extension of the concept, and proved me some fun times, I was already tired of the rock-paper-scissors combat system, the rushing, and the paper thin diplomacy and state craft. So I'd move on to Civilization 3, Medieval Total War, and Europa Universalis 3 😊 and then I had no time to play games anymore

Ah. Lovecraftian Doom! A game where you battle unspeakable and nameless cosmic horrors in a space covered in black protean ooze, and where THE ANGLES ARE ALL WRONG!

What in the world?! 😮

You could have just made a TH-cam video you didn't need to get a whole audience, golly 😢

Lookup tables for trig functions are required because manually calculating them is massively slow and frame rates would tank

Bro sounds like Zoidberg

What is the highest playable value of pi?

pi = 3

Trust me, this guy doesn't really know what he is talking about or even understands what he is doing. The fact that the game uses lookup tables has nothing to do with graphics cards not being available back then. It has to do with the fact that the targeted hardware didn't have a floating point processor. Also, non-Euclidean geometry has nothing to do with straight lines no longer being the shortest path between two points. It has to do with the fact that two lines, running parallel, are no longer running parallel. He is also surprised he can still shoot enemies. Of course you can. Things like enemy hit registration and collision detection are done separately from the renderer. In fact, the calculations over there are 2D instead of 3D. The Doom engine is not a true 3D engine. Only certain parts are 3D. Changing a value in source code and recompiling that code is not black magic. It can be easily done with the right toolchain. Easy money.

10:40 - yeah, a little...turn it off that shit :)

Non-Euclidean Doom looks like Doom on PS1, generated by AI

Who'd have thought changing a variable to random numbers screws up a program?

The title oversells things quite a bit. Mostly they change the value of pi, which affects graphics rendering. Non-Euclidean geometry would be things like spherical or hyperbolic geometry. That would make traveling between rooms quite interesting!

Чисто поржать

Just as the Bible says, pi=3

Doom but Ïa Ïa Cthulhu Fthagn.

surprised no pi = 1 test

I need to try this in vr

So what's the significance of this... find?

wasn't the first physical meet in april this year?

Now imagine the irony of breaking all the software that to this day is on GitHub using the wrong value for π, by LITERALLY FIXING the code and replacing it with the right value, as it breaks everything that was bound to the incorrect numbers

Can this work with GZDoom? I'm spoiled with full mouselook.

Is that xisuma's skin?

Yeah… yeah… yeah… it’s… yeah…. Yeah

running asteroids on doom via jpeg is the craziest thing i've ever seen

I just love when he says "with enough intoxication you can recreate this"

pi = i ...

Me as a doom vereran nodding along as if I understand any of this

As a human I eat pie

I’m here because of doom scrolling

it would be fun i flund you tried multiple diffrent constents to see what result they would give

4D Doom

Me: I will sleep early and stop wasting time on the internet. Also me 3am:

Most entertaining talk I ever see 🎉❤ amazing.

3.33. only half bad.

John Carmack has basically hacked the universe through his mistake. Given enough time his wrong value will be picked up by so much code that eventually we will have no choice but to keep using it .

π ≈ 2

4D Doom is unacceptable

If you keep your eyesight unfocused and move around, you'll experience an approximation of Non-Euclidean geometry.

Now I only need to create version with pi=2.9 and distribute it on Lan party to other so they just die internally.

Playing Doom on drugs be like...

Does anybody know exactly WHERE to find the value of PI in the source code for chocolate doom?

Why is everyone talking about pie are they hungry or something

Also ich finde die Präsentation sehr gut. Er hat viele bilder benutzt und frei gesprochen

Leaving a comment 😊

8:35 Pi = 3 9:36 Pi = e 10:20 Pi = Pi/2 11:15 Pi = 0.0001

Doom but you are a 3 dimensional being trying to perceive a 4D dimension

It’s like if Bloody Stupid Johnson from discworld made doom

would make for a really cool mod
