This shouldn’t be this good 😩😩😩😩

[@m4ank]

yeah

[@pou-c]

i nutted bc of the editing

[@a.k.arussel8776]

This is the first roblox tutorial that didn't just educate me, but entertained me. The only one that I could honestly sit down, watch, chuckle, and learn. Awesome video. Hope you keep making more!!!

[@kiyan1586]

Thanks for your comment! I'm glad that I was able to entertain you throughout the lengthy video anyways, since you probably wouldn't be too happy by the end of it, if it were to be in the style of AlvinBlox - for example. My aim is to continue this style of video, so thank you for your feedback on it!

[@deleted_handle]

You're not the first one to find an educational video fun.

[@thing4826]

The quality of this video was fantastic. The editing, the way you explain things, the humor... it all felt like a video that would have been made by a well established and experienced KZbin tutorial. -10/10 IGN

[@thing4826]

oh yea also the music was 10/10

[@kiyan1586]

Thanks for your comment 👍 and I must say, the quality of background music also shocked me too lol

[@beoq]

This is easily the greatest roblox development tutorial that i have ever seen in 5 years of work. There is nothing to critique as this is a perfect trove of knowledge. This video is extremely informative whilst still being entertaining and well-made, on top of all that, perfect pacing! I never thought I would see someone drop a legendary perlin noise video then disappear, you truly have talent! Please never let your spark die, you easily deserve millions of subscribers!

[@StellarInsights_]

True

[@GrapeGuy]

This video is great for me as an introduction towards perlin noise and terrain generation, I've already made advanced in terrain generation before but this really helps clearing up what I might've missed when it comes to the generation. I'd love more videos on this topic and keep up the amazing work!

[@pegfingers]

incredible tutorial, it gets to the point and explains things incredibly well - i knew exactly what each thing did despite having no experience in procedural generation beforehand. amazing video, it's hard to believe this is your first.

[@zordoanimations5599]

this is so high quality and its really entertaining, thank you for this awesome video!

[@ExperiencersInternational]

Finally it's out :D Excellent editing though, much better than I can do

[@kiyan1586]

Thank you! Really appreciate the comment

[@brycex1]

Saw ur post in HD discord. Great quality vid!

[@MCninja42]

I saw the quality of the editing and everything so i scrolled down to expect over 10,000 subscribers but only 146?! This guy is so underated.

[@Yes-ht3fw]

This is a legendary video please continue to make more the quality and explanations are not to hard to understand

[@kiyan1586]

Thank you for the ego boost!

[@sil5056]

oh wow.. i came across this through roblox's devforums, one of the best tutorials i've seen in a while! your editing style and sense of humour is great, which really helps with long videos like these. this is amazing, especially for your first development video, and i can't wait to see more. have a good day sir :>

[@kiyan1586]

Thank you for your kind comment! I am glad you enjoyed the video, and I hope to upload more videos in the upcoming weeks

[@kiyan1586]

If anyone has any video suggestions, then please do leave them underneath this comment. I would love to hear what you guys want to see more of!

[@zeussz1246]

Make an advanced tutorial of it 😳

[@kiyan1586]

​@Coder Husk many big words used there lmao, but I may actually have a look at doing a video on cellular automata actually. I have always been fascinated by it, and I think it would be a great video to talk about it, within Roblox of course EDIT: CFrames is also something that would be great to cover, as it is a huge topic, which can range from pretty easy to even confusing the computer.

[@user-zg1ck2lv2f]

Biomes, Chunk Systems, Water Levels, Terrain Appearance, please make them, and how would you also turn them into roblox's terrain (not parts)

[@alexwarevideos]

A bit late but it'd be awesome if there was a video like this to explain marching cubes. I've already seen some videos but good lord their explanations are really awful.

[@K0nanVarvar1950]

my guy just made his first video one of the best roblox studio tutorials out there

[@Game.w]

bro this is the cleanest roblox tutorial I have seen, coming close to the cleanest game development tutorial in general if PrismaticaDev didn't exist

[@otterryy]

You explanations are already good trying to look anywhere else and they can't dumb down the topic like this

[@Rudy_Cola]

I encourage you to make more videos. The community needs you! (Your editing is also like god tier)

[@kiyan1586]

That is so very kind of you! I am in the process of making another video now, so hopefully that will calm everyone's nerves down. The last year has been a bit busy, so I am slightly upset that I haven't been able to upload anything of substance..

Man you deserve 100x the subs you have!

[@pafffelo]

great tutorial, can't wait for you to make more of these (if you even plan on doing that) :]

[@kiyan1586]

Thanks! I am currently in the making of the next set of videos for the Basics Series. The first set is going to be on creating custom Dialogue Boxes, so stay tuned for that 😏

[@nanobit1]

You are an amazing yter I cant believe this is your FIRST VIDEO

[@Alsonotturkey]

this is my code and it works!!! local PC = workspace:WaitForChild("Name of folder") -- i'd recommend to keep these how they are but you -- can change them oh ever you want local FSS = 350 -- Size of the fake terrain in studs (CANT GO OVER 350!!!) local RES = 25 -- How smooth the fake terrain is (dont go higher then 100) local FRE = 1.5 -- Frequency of the fake terrain noise (dont go higher then 3) local AMP = 5 -- Amplitude of the fake terrain noise (dont go higher then 15) for x = 0,FSS do for z = 0,FSS do local Part = Instance.new("Part") Part.Anchored = true Part.Size = Vector3.new(1,1,1) Part.Color = Color3.new(0.686275, 1, 0.564706) Part.Parent = PC Part.Position = Vector3.new(x,math.noise(x/RES,z/RES)*AMP,z) end game:GetService("RunService").Heartbeat:Wait() end script:Destroy()

[@Davi-kc2wq]

Thumbnail 10/10 better than alvinblox and devking thumbnails Audio 10/10 Audio is crystal clear, I'm not an audiophile so I have no complaints Editing 10/10 It's incredible. This level of quality is something that not even top dev KZbinrs (shame on you, alvinblox) manage to achieve and I'm actually amazed at how much effort you put into editing this video Explanation 8/10 A bit iffy when explaining how the perlin noise algorithm works Overall I rate this video a 9/10, it's well elaborated and easy to understand.

[@kiyan1586]

Thank you for your kind comment! And yes, my explanations can get a questionable times lol - especially when it comes to complex topics, but I think that will be something that will be improved upon as I make more videos. Thank you for your feedback regardless

[@istilldontknow456]

​@@kiyan1586 When are you gonna make more videos? It's been 2 years

[@simyian9932]

Great video. Thank you, I was curious about Perlin noise for the past week. My Game will benefit from this for sure.

[@damiendevstuff]

You should make more videos. This video is not only teaching me things, but I can also laugh at comedy while learning. My suggestion would be to make momentum based crouch sliding. It would be more than just a normal crouch slide, plus, it would be a great addition to many platformer games.

[@Gabbe211]

This tutorial is amazing! Really REALLY good! I didnt realise it was this simple to make! But im still fairly unsure on how to load and unload near by sections/chunks so maybe you could make a tutorial on that!

[@edina7644]

one of the best videos i’ve ever watched on roblox scripting

[@zeussz1246]

Great tutorial, one small optimization I would recommend is the part where you parent the part to the workspace whilst setting up their props, is that you should try to set all your props BEFORE you parent the part to something else, this can make your code run slightly faster. :)

[@kiyan1586]

Wasn't aware of that, but thank you for your nice tip anyways!

[@Rudy_Cola]

im not joking please make more content this is like the only type of tutorial i actually learn from and like i cant find anyone else with these kind of roblox tutorials please :(

[@asrobox]

[@abiubunifu8308]

Thanks mate, was really helpful for my upcoming Endless Snow game.. ironically used for terrain.

[@RookieAlert]

Excellent video mate, you put a lot of work into and its funny and entertaining. Nicely done. Didn't even know Roblox had a Noise function so that's cool! By the way, wouldn't: math.noise(x * amp * res, z * amp * res) be the same as math.noise(x,z) * amp * res ?

[@ana_s]

no, because math.noise(x * amp * res, z * amp * res) will be multiplying the x and z values with amp and res and getting a value from those values, while math.noise(x,z) * amp * res will be getting the value from the noise function and multiplying it with amp and res

[@kiyan1586]

I'm glad you like the content! To answer your question: no, it won't. The first example you stated is only affecting the inputted values. So the algorithm will have multiplied X and Z values in order to produce a different Perlin noise wave. Whereas with the second one, you are multiplying the result of the algorithm, which means the Perlin Noise wave is being multiplied by the amp and res values. I hope that helps!

Best Roblox scripting tutorial ever!!! 10/10

[@PoppinCorn]

bro you actually put effort into these video edits instead of making them just basic scripting, and its really intriguing to the viewers who actually want to learn this topic, despite it being a half hour long. I hope you post more advanced tutorials soon, we all need something original and not over-exaggerated like this masterpiece! also, what do you use to edit your videos?

[@ArtandFix]

sorry to tell you that he hasnt made any videos in 2 years like dany

[@HTWwpzIuqaObMt]

Small fact: the numbers are not actually random since it uses some pseudo generating algorithms. Even hashing is not randoj

[@user-zg1ck2lv2f]

Biomes, Chunk Systems, Water Levels, Terrain Appearance, please make them, and how would you also turn them into roblox's terrain (not parts)

[@kiyan1586]

Was planning on making a follow up to this video anyways, so if I were to, it would probably go into more depth of how you could use them

[@noobz4212]

absolute cinema, investing at 1k subs

[@alkantukas]

could you make a video on generating an island? i cant figure out how to make the edges slowly go down in the ground

[@kiyan1586]

The likelihood is that I will end up making a follow up to the perlin noise video that will outline all things possible with it, such as generating islands. It won't go into a deeper level of explanation, but it will definitely showcase a lot of things that are possible with perlin noise. Thanks for the suggestion anyways

[@kiyan1586]

I've already worked on a camera system like that before, so I really wouldn't mind making a tutorial on it. And it would be a BOTW themed video, so I would have to make it lol

[@LustriaWoken]

damn this some crazy good content

[@wonsole]

yoo that tutorial felt so quickk

[@at0mictac098]

This was super informative, thank you!! Though, I'm unsure of one thing, how do you make it randomize each time you run the game? I tried adding math.random(-math.huge, math.huge) as the third argument, but it was still generating the same thing.

[@kiyan1586]

Ah yes, good point actually. I think I was just rushing in terms of recording that part for the video, but math.random(-math.huge, math.huge) will not work in the way it is intended. It will always output the same number: -2147483648; therefore I would highly recommend you use math.random() * 1E14 instead, as it will output a random number with a large number of digits. Hope that helps, and thank you for subscribing!

[@duckygoose9442]

I think you have to use “math.randomseed(math.random())”
