[@pokeboi5438]

@@sanfordrussell8549 aliasing is the jagged edges around an object (e.g cortex’s model) and anti-aliasing is the smoothing of those jaggies

[𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐰𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐍𝐞𝐨 𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐱 𝐏𝐨𝐝𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐭 + 𝐁𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬] -N' Gin works on the show's lighting. The first person that Neo Cortex convinced to join the stage crew for the show. Obviously it was pretty easy to recruit him given his devotion to Cortex like the weird Hunchback of Notre-Dame creature he is, though it was found pretty difficult to find a proper job for him given all of the many contraptions he fought Crash with were made by the many Lab Assistants that Cortex either hired or kidnapped. N-Gin didn't really have a lot of knowledge of anything other than destructive weaponry, so to give him at least a role in the show, Cortex appointed N-Gin the role of Lighting Maintenance Guy. A job so simple I'm pretty sure it's illegal. -Tiny Tiger runs the camera in the back. Originally going to be the bouncer for Neo Cortex's Castle, Tiny Tiger was instead tasked with managing the camera work for the show. It's a bit obvious that he's a newbie at the job since he doesn't know how to move the camera to any spot other than the desk, which forces Cortex to host the show primarily at his desk. -Pinstripe secretly funds the show with counterfeit money. Of course, a gangster potoroo has to have some money in his safe, and in this case, that money ended up in the hands of Cortex. Originally against the idea, since he blamed Cortex for his previous defeat against Crash, Cortex struck a deal with Pinstripe, granting Pinstripe partial ownership of the show's revenue on one condition only if he could help manage the show's funding via counterfeit money. Pinstripe, blinded by easy riches, decided to help Cortex and is now funding a significant portion of the show with money that's probably illegal in multiple countries. -Papu Papu is the only viewer to watch the show in the Wumpa Islands. Originally against the idea of free television because it's Papu Papu, he eventually gave in and watches the show every week. Either by choice or by force, we may never know. -Ripper Roo is the show's technician, but ends up causing an explosion by the end of the show. Original gonna be the mascot for the show because N-Gin thought the show needed a mascot, Cortex instead suggested giving Ripper Roo the role of technician. Dingodile (will be mentioned later) hated the idea, finding it to be a stupid choice since Ripper Roo only had his feet to use, and seeing how being a technician involves using your hands, he found the idea to be dumb and a waste of potential for himself. Cortex, however didn't care cause he found more use in Ripper Roo than in Dingodile, and put Ripper Roo as the technician cause he thought it would be a perfect role for him. Though because of the explosions after every show taping, he's been slowly contemplating the idea of replacing Ripper Roo with Dingodile. -Dingodile works as the show's editor, a bit furious that he couldn't get the technician job. Cortex found him unfit for the job when Dingodile first brought up the idea, seeing him more for his flamethrower collection and him being Australian than his knowledge on tech behind the scenes. -Koala Kong runs a gym that gains him enough money to donate to the show's funding, chipping of more than half of his monthly earnings. -Crunch unwillingly works as the show's security, since a lot of people are probably banging down the show's door as we speak. -The Komodo Bros work as janitors for the show since Cortex couldn't find a good spot for them since the rest of the spots were taken. Edit: Here's some late additions for ya cause why not? -Uka-Uka is the Co-Host for the show, with Neo Cortex obviously being the main host for the show. -Oxide is the show's satellite maintenance guy. Since he's the only one out of the bunch of has at least a sliver of knowledge when it comes to anything space related, Cortex tasked him with signalling the show to other channels across the world. Unfortunately every time he attempts to do so, he ends up signalling the show to random locations every time he does it, making viewership incredibly all over the place. -N-Brio is the show's money manager. Cortex originally was gonna have Pinstripe be the manager for the show's money, however, seeing how he believed N-Brio to be a lazy sack of wumpa fruits, he tasked N-Brio to handle the show's money out of spite. -Dr. N-Tropy is the show's schedule manager. Given it's the only role in the show to make sure everything is up to snuff on time, he tasked their universe's time-wizard to manage the schedules of every person there. N-Tropy, however, saw this role to be a waste of his own talents, and saw Cortex as a wreck less fool. -Fake Crash is the show's artist. Originally mistaken for the actual Crash because Cortex has the visual perception of a cornflake, Fake Crash was tasked as the show's artist. Since Fake Crash was good at looking like a deformed Crash clone, maybe he could draw deformed Crash clones...right? Well yeah, actually! With his job being the only one to actually have some skill put into it, he gained praise for making Crash look like an absolute abomination. Being assigned as the show's employee of the month, to the dismay of the rest of the cast.

This isn't VTuber content. VTubers are 30yo japanese men hiding behind a facade of sexy anime women because they want to get donations, like OnlyFans girls do. This is actually funny. Mimicking Cortex while playing Crash 4, especially if the steamer has a voice similar to Clancy Brown/Lex Lang's, could be genuinely amazing. Similarly, playing as any of the TF2 cast or other memeable characters like Senator Armstrong is actually good content if they are mimicked well.

[@MammalianCreature]

@@tragedyplustime8271 Pretty sure you're wrong. VTubers get doxxed every once in a while and the only one who's turned out to be a guy wasn't even popular. Weebs are so odd that they've been doxxing or trying to leak info about their favorite creators, and everyone who has been revealed is a woman, except that one dude.
