Out of Bounds Secrets | Zelda Twilight Princess - Boundary Break

[@BoundaryBreak]

Thank you guys. This was my only vid this month because it was a monster to look at front to back. Its why it took this long to work up the nerve to do it. I knew itd take me a whole month so i appreciate everyone whos taken the time to watch it. Lots of ways you can show support if you want to. But this month I'd really appreciate anyone supporting my path to Twitch partner. just need a consistent 75 concurrent viewers to pull it off so if you want to help with that, heres my link twitch.tv/boundarybreak

[@ghostsinthesnow_makes_music]

you should do the mass effect series! always been curious about the out of bounds stuff in those games

[@xslowdeath420x]

Any chance you can see where the OHO goes when you fast travel to Vah Ruta and it falls from the sky? Goes right through the ground but you can track it with the shieka slate, I just wanna know where it goes

The fact that the Gamecube can run this amazing monster of a game very smoothly is a miracle. Still unmatched to this day.

[@robjackson4050]

yup the fact that very little was changed between the wii and gamecube versions is amazing

[@thefallencog]

Afaik Twilight princess was one of those games that originally couldn't run at all on Gamecube no matter what they did. So they had Miyamoto still in his waning prime work some programming magic to make it work on the gamecube. There were a lot of cut corners, and as you can see here in the video they went to an extreme effort to limit polycount and cut off excess terrain when they could.

[@YunaBelmont1]

It's not a miracle at all, NGC was a very powerfull console

[@TubboDaKittyCat]

The gamecube is actually more powerful than the original xbox. The only reason games tend to look worse on it is because of Nintendo's decision to use mini-DVD's. Devs had to use lower rez textures because of the limited space on the smaller disc.

[@warlockpaladin2261]

It was actually designed for the GameCube, it was merely ported to the Wii. The only real innovation for the Wii version is the controllers which I've heard (not sure if actually true) that had been conceived initially for the GameCube but pushed up to the next console because Nintendo was trying to get away from legacy hardware.

This whole video is meme worthy. Probably one of your best episodes yet. Thank you for revisiting it when you could

[@SatyrToon]

Animator here. Ganondorf's crossed eyes (at least in the execution scene) can actually be explained. There's something in animation known as "tricking the camera" and it's basically making a pose/expression look good ONLY from the angle that it's going to be seen from. This saves time but also results in a character that may look a little goofy from unintended angles. Sometimes it's just a funny face, but other times it can be things like not animating entire parts of a character or having weird positioning that looks find from one angle but TOTALLY off kilter in another. In Ganonforf's execution scene, he has to give a very intense expression and it looks perfectly fine from the correct viewing angle, but since he's looking so far forward, it tends to have the effect of crossed eyes. Additionally, something I was tought to do when animating was to create an object and placing it where you need to character to look and then using that object as a point of reference for other characters in the scene, either parenting the eyes to the object so that when the reference object moves, so does the eyes or simply doing your best to adjust the eye control to follow the object. The parenting method, in my experience, leads to more weird faces. A lot of animators in my college told us to ALWAYS animate the entire body of a character, even if the viewer won't see it, and I can tell you from experinece - DON'T DO THAT. You'll waste time and energy. Do what the devs of this game (and MOST GAMES) do and only animate what will actually be seen. It's better to do a little and have it look great than to do too much, tire yourself out and have it look sub-par. That aside, one of the things that upset me the most in BOTW (that was totally inconsiquential to the quality of the game) was how little of the Arbiter's Grounds remains. I love going around BOTW and finding locations from previous games and I was so sad to find out that this really important location from TP was unrecognizable.
