    If you’ve wondered where I’ve been for the past 10 months, it was working day and night on this one video. In other words, I never actually left, I’ve been working on sm64 the whole time. So I didn’t forget about you guys :)

    1:38:30 “Hey, this is the invisible wall I showed in the intro. Remember that? You were so innocent back then. You had no idea how deep this rabbit hole went.” This hits so hard after sitting through more than an hour and a half of technical information on mario 64’s collision systems.

    I'm expecting an entire 10+ minute section of this video dedicated to TTC.
    Edit: Having now finished the video, I reflect on just how shallow my expectations were.
    This video had some of the funniest one-liners, beautifully heart-tugging moments and accomplishes all of this while being a technical marvel that never stops presenting engaging educational material about one of the most important cultural landmarks of our generation.
    People always say "This man could accomplish any world problem and instead he's making videos about Mario 64" and meanwhile I am left here thinking "If this man has all this passion to keep making these beautiful videos in such a creative and entertaining way, why would you ever want to force him to do something else?"
    Don't let anyone else tell you what value you should hold to the world, because your work inspires people in more ways than you could ever know.
    You have a beautiful soul and at this rate, you have my undying support.

      most of the visualization were those lines which displayed where the invisible walls were, which was already really technologically impressive alongside the graph, but when it came to showing an example where there was a whole entire area which was an invisible wall, it blew my mind that it seemed to be rendering an actual 3D object, even with a spherical section cut out of it. i seriously wondered how that was even done, and it seems seriously impressive. crazy

      In fact, it's something quite common in video game programming and engine logic, don't think it's something so special either.
      Once you learn to develop something (even somethat basic), you learn that a game is an infinite loop of threads that complement each other simulating an ordered system (software in general it's like this), and the apparent logic that you see visually has almost nothing to do with the logic applied behind.
      Many developers or programmers are simply fixers and engineers who seek a goal through an engine, but they almost never understand a damn thing about the engine or how its very inner core works, they simply get carried away and fix the bugs that appear in the process.

      Technically it's just resetting the state of mario and then correcting it within the same frame internally, there's no actual hat being removed in-game so the performance hit is minor. Probably it fixes some other major animation issue or something.

    We, the educated audience: "Well actually, it's the same structure's invisible wall, you just weren't aware of the structure it generated from on the first collision because the ceiling extends upwards infinitely and hitting it again on the immediate lower end didn't clarify that relationship from to the first collision so many units above."
    Then he hit the same invisible wall a third time...

    Unbelievably good video. It made me realize there were many things I glossed over when explaining SM64 stuff (mostly in the ABC). Your explanations of concepts I have also covered were far more thorough and obviously come from a much deeper understanding than I could ever dream to have.
    One of the things that surprised me the most was the castle OoB to the floor above - I completely forgot this was in the 120 star TAS at all, and I sort of can't believe I didn't question that further when I saw it years ago.
    All things considered, I'm actually kind of surprised there aren't more invisible walls. It's like they're all concentrated in the same areas and 95% of the game is fine.

    I feel like when people ask "why is there an invisible wall there?" they assume a lot of intent. That the wall is the first kind, a wall with no texture. People hit an invisible wall and think "why did the game developers, in their infinite wisdom, purposely place a wall at this exact spot that you can't see."
    And honestly I'm glad this video exists now to show just how janky this game, being mario's first foray into 3d, is and how ultimately human the devs were. With how ceilings work, it's no wonder that stuff like this is all over the game if you know where to look for it.

      The execution on that collision code is plagued by poor decisions. The idea is to have the inside of the world geometry being fully solid as a redundancy feature, so that the player always gets pushed inside the level. The issue is that the quality of the rest of the software is not high enough to afford this kind of strong behavior without it breaking a lot of other things. Because of gravity, it's not even useful to have the ceiling being extended, the floor would seem to be a more sensible option.

These are the types of videos I absolutely love on TH-cam, weird quirky things that get explained in vivid detail about something you'd almost certainly never use again in your life.
    Plus, reading some comments, the fact this video which is two minutes LONGER than Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers EXTENDED, has such a hilarious script and amazing editing, is peak TH-cam.

      @kolskytraveller1369 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +52

      ​@@buttecake it would be funny, but I believe it would be impossible given the explanation throughout the video. "Walls" update every frame, but you have to hit the ceiling for two consecutive frames to bonk on it. Even if the "wall" interaction happens before geometry update, which is the most generous case, the most likely way to achieve that would be:
      1. Tilt the platform.
      2. Somehow generate or use enough speed to collide with the first ceiling while having an upwards trajectory. This cancels the vertical speed component. On the same frame tilt the platform again (is it even possible?). Notice how we have to come from "below" the platform due to an upwards trajectory requirement while staying on it on the previous frame.
      3. Use the horizontal speed component to bonk into other ceiling. Notice how, in order to stay on the platform and hit the invisible ceiling on the previous frame, our horizontal speed component must be facing away from the next ceiling, and redirecting it back was impossible back then.
      Even PUs won't help, since objects do not exist in PUs.
      I also don't think cloning would be useful. Cloned platforms are intangible (or can't be interacted with).

    The #1 lesson I get from watching these videos is that the pioneers, literal pioneers, who made this game were able to accomplish an astronomical feat in making a fun, playable game in three dimensions while lacking the tools to do anything perfectly or automatically.

    I've watched this entire video 5 times now and I just wish there were hundreds of hours more of this content. Something about the direct explanations and visual aides in SM64 makes it perfect for my brain to consume. I would 1000% watch a 12 hour top to bottom explanation of Sm64 physics/rendering/gameplay educational document. The level of granularity I think is what makes it so interesting. There's only one pannenkoek, and thank god we have him.

    I laughed when I saw an almost 4 hour video on SM64 walls come across my feed, but I'm impressed. Early on in my programming career I loved finding the little "hacks" that made things work but weren't intuitive. I still do, but now I take greater joy in trying to poke holes in things. This is NTSB or USCSB level analysis. Your ability to explain the complex systems involved in terms that will make sense to someone with a general understanding of the underlying concepts is impressive. The corporate world loves people who can translate stakeholder speak to engineer speak and vice versa.
    One piece of advice I received many years ago from a friend of mine really stuck with me and I'd like to pass it on to you. My friend is in sales. He told me, "never point out a problem without offering a possible solution."
    I'm only halfway through the video so I'm not sure if you give your 2 cents or not, but based on your through understanding of the issues at hand, I'd be curious to hear what you're proposed solutions would be.
