this is how gamedev works. Tilesheets.

[@hazchickgames2840]

The "Official" name for it in 3D is created what's called a Texture Atlas. In old PS1 games, they would have have an Atlas either for the entire game or per themed area. So for instance, any "snow levels" or "Sewer levels" like you see in Crash Bandicoot would use the same atlas to texture the whole level. Interestingly, someone ripped every texture atlas from a emulated copy of Silent Hill 1 and all its models. I'm sure with some googling you'd be able to find it, just to see how they constructed it all.

That’s what I’m talking about! You can add a lot of features and content, while your PS1 style game will weight 20gb for example, just imagine how a lot of content there would be… And also, new and not dumb physical engines, I don’t mean “realistic” physics, we are not in a simulator, but nice and soft physics without any bugs… Better graphics also, I know you said about all stuff should be simplified etc, but this is also possible to create beautiful but simplified graphics! And in conclusion, of course I am now talking about mostly PC, but also, main idea is multi platform game with reusable content, to weight not more than 5gb.

Awesome stuff!! I loved that you utilized tile sets for texturing and the scene is absolutely gorgeous, looks like something I’d come across during the Max Payne or Silent Hill era.

[@Summmer85]

Thank you for review! Happy you like it. Yes, of course, you can use higher resolution textures, but we have a club here for those who are nostalgic for the graphics aesthetic of that time :) Well, yes, pixels will be lost in this case. At this stage I am only learning modelling, but as far as I know tiles are used in the development of different game styles.

Incredible work, can you please do a tutorial 3:14 how do you texture that way? I'm a beginner in 3D and Blender stuff

[@Summmer85]

Thank you! I have no experience in creating tutorials yet, but I'm planning on trying.

[@5ld734]

To texture like this first you need a trim sheet (a collection of textures that are on the same image) and once u have that make sure to model out your scene, but basically in this style each polygonal face has a separate UV rather than the traditional method of putting uvs together as an island. So for this style don’t UV unwrap (I learned this the hard way and after UV unwrapping I found it challenging to align the shapes with the right texture) Instead go to the uv editing panel in blender, open up the trim sheet, and select the face u want to texture and drag it onto the texture you want. Ideally make all faces as simple squares for best looks. To see the change in real time assign a material to the object with the trim sheet as the base texture image. This is a great way to texture quick assets for games honestly much faster than handpainting and gives a beautiful style. This works for photorealistic Hi-Res games as well, if you’re trying to make assets in the style of half life 2 or silent hill this is the same method they use. I don’t know how experienced u are but if u have any questions feel free to ask I’m bored at work and love talking about this stuff ALSO another note is I recommend leaving space between the textures on the trim sheet so there isn’t overlapping, sometimes when exporting to a game engine you’ll find lines in between UV faces that only show up far away, this is due to texture scaling being wonky. You should give space between each texture and extrude the pixels out a lil bit about 6 pixels is a nice safe bet. You’ll see better results that way and not have ugly lines bleed into your uvs on low res settings

Cool as hell But! If you’d like a more authentic PS1 look Aside from texture warble and vertex snapping I’d suggest lowering the render resolution Quantising the texture colours NOT using regular lighting but instead using vertex colours to fake that And maybe using some dithering in composition

[@Summmer85]

Thanks! I agree, it is not 100% the original look of the PS1, but rather a style inspired by that era. To be honest, it’s hard for me to keep myself strictly within certain limits.

I almost have not played games for the last 20 years I think. All the inspirations are from my childhood when I was playing PS1. Some people in the comments compare it to Metal Gear.

[@Seedy32]

I'd be interested to see if scenes like this could actually be rendered on PS1 hardware/an emulator. The textures are low res, but the models aren't exactly small. The graphical limitations of the PS1 were WAY tighter than developers were given credit for being able to innovate with. I think what you've made here closer represents early PS2 graphics/models more-so than PS1.

[@Summmer85]

Yes, I agree. Recently, I've been playing PS1 games again, and it’s becoming more and more clear to me that the graphics back then were even simpler-at least with an even lower resolution. On the other hand, if the PS1 era had lasted a few more years, I think we would have seen even more amazing examples of games. It seems to me that the PS1's potential wasn’t fully realized. Remember the manta and dinosaur models from the demo disc-that’s a completely different level compared to the graphics in most games.

[@Seedy32]

@Summmer85 There's a really cool documentary on here where the developer of Crash Bandicoot 1 talks about what he had to do to squeeze every ounce of power he could out of the chips on the PS1. It's fascinating. He went right down to the assembly language level to "steal" power from parts of the system that weren't supposed to be accessible to the game ROM's.

I am glad that so many people are involved in this direction and that we can share our experience each other. If you talking about fallen snow at the end of video, yes, it's just planes with subdivisions and after I moved the vertices a bit to create bumps and shade smooth after. The method is primitive, but it turned out quite realistic.

Hey, thanks for such a helpful guide! I have one question that I can't find an answer to anywhere, it would be great if you could help Do you make sure that textures have the same number of pixels? If so, what do you focus on when changing the size of each texture when you put it in one texture pack? I've also seen some people make a separate UV for each item, but I don't think that's quite optimal if you assume that these textures will be used in the game.

[@Summmer85]

Hi, thank you for your feed back and question! In fact, I didn't really bother about this. In some cases, I changed the size of the texture as it looked on the model, jumping from blender to photoshop several times. Probably, first of all, you should take into account the size of a particular asset and allocate appropriate space for it on UV-map. Lately I've been mostly drawing a separate texture for each object (separate file). I'm currently working on detailed tutorial about this style of graphics.

Yes, perhaps so. A lot of people here have also said that it's more like PS2. PS1 graphics were even simpler.

looks really cool 😊👍 I wonder if it's possible to emulate PS1 texture wobbles in blender 🤔

[@Summmer85]

Of course, somewhere there is already tutorial about

[@cosmicrdt]

You should have added texture warping like the og ps1 had.

[@Summmer85]

I'll try it somehow. Thanks!

How did you project from view the plane/cube ? I select all , going front view and "uv project from view", the front face and down face is good, side ones are blurry

[@Summmer85]

Project from view assumes that the side faces will not be unwrapped properly - this is normal. In some cases I ignore unwrapping of some faces, if it is not important in the scene.

Hey!I would like to ask, I really like the ps1 style, I create low poly models in a blender, but I still can't figure out how to save texture resolutions, if the object is larger, it needs more texture space, but how to maintain this balance between the same texture resolution between large and small objects?

[@Summmer85]

Hey! This is an interesting question. I thought about this myself, but usually I don’t bother too much and try to roughly match the texture resolution. If an object has a seamless texture (for example ground, grass or wall), then you can simply reduce or increase UV map. But if this is some kind of object like a TV, you can always change the resolution of the texture, for example, make it smaller and look at it. Sometimes I edit and resave the texture several times before it suits me. I try to create textures whose resolution does not exceed 256x256 px. But sometimes I neglect these restrictions :)

@@Summmer85 thank you very much for answer, I want to try to do as you said and I will definitely answer if it helped me!

[@pstuarts]

Is there any specific place where you get those PS1 textures? And also, hat movement on the lines when the camera is moving, it's because of the textures? Thanks for this simple and amazing tutorial, you're inspiring me to create something like this.

[@Summmer85]

Hi, glad it was interesting to you! I looked for textures on the Internet in different places. For example texture.com What about movement on the lines - this is due to the low resolution textures and some pixelation settings in Blender.

How did you create the snow and shaders?

[@Summmer85]

I did snowfall via Particle Properties menu. There are tutorials about on KZbin, I recommend watching them. Snow on objects is just usual modelling from the planes. I didn't use any shaders. For pixelation I used Nodes of Compositing area.

[@Krucek_v2]

Anyone knows how he got the windows to emit light/stand out like that? 6:20

[@Krucek_v2]

Figured it out. You basically mix the Emission node with the texture and that's it. Then you just add point lights.

[@Summmer85]

@@Krucek_v2 need separate material with emission, which assigned to specific faces (window in this case)

[@Mindyourownbsht]

yo nice video, but how did you add the snow?

[@Summmer85]

Thanks! I did it via Particle Properties at the right panel of Blender. I watched some tutorial on youtube and followed the instructions.

How do you record the screen so good? Do you use OBS and vegas? I can't record like that my ps1 syle game :(

[@Summmer85]

I record the screen simply via QuickTime. Working on Mac
