A couple small things: 1) If you comment stuff that we said wrong Eden will come out of the woodwork and argue with you. 2) I’ll be posting 6 or 7 minutes of outtakes from this episode to my Patreon later this week. It was a lot of footage. 3) Thanks for letting me be a part of your life and daily routine.

The carving on the bench in hyrule castle is most likely not a rito but a loftwing (which also gave the royal crest its wings and feet). Great video as always, love the genuine care put into inspecting the craft.

First of all, you're the one to thank for posting videos like these that are really neat. I love just really taking good looks at little details like that as well as skyboxes, so your videos are always a pleasure to watch. Secondly, I have no idea if you've played them, but I think it'd be neat to take a look at the woodwork within the Xenoblade series, as their developer Monolith soft has actually assisted the main development studio with the environment design (mostly topography) and the Xenoblade games tend to be packed with environmental details. So I'm actually quite curious how the woodwork within their own games stacks up as well as what similarities and differences we might see when comparing them. Not to mention that even outside of that, the Xenoblade series has some fantastic "skyboxes" that I can almost never get enough of. Hope you'll have a nice day or evening

That last table isn't plywood on the legs. In certain historical tables, you see carved vertical grooves going up the legs. I think those divisions that look like sheets in plywood are actually carved grooves going up the legs. I think the weird looking textures under the surfaces were also supposed to be carved grooves, but it looks awful and does look like end grains so i think there was just sloppiness in texture selection.

That's how I read it, but it's such a low-grade texture, it _does_ become harder to tell... Also, that just sort of makes sense, given everything else we see in game. Granted, I don't know how long humanity has had plywood, but it doesn't strike me as something particularly easy to slap together with only hand tools. Thin layers stacked together sounds like a nightmare to try to craft by hand, actually. It would probably end up cheaper to use whole wood pieces if you were expecting someone to use a medieval saw to slice something so thin, I might think.

12:25 this whole asset really strikes me as something that was made as a game prop, more so than the others. Game props often need to take up as little space as possible as not to infringe on the play area, a straight back side to the shelf allows you to line it up perfectly against a wall. The plank of wood that has a sharp angle turn to it is just an easy way to UV map that texture while reducing poly count, I'd even say that existing makes me feel like this prop was rushed a bit compared to the others! Not that it particularly matters, but I doubt the artist would have made that decision if they had all the time in the world to make it. Such a cool video thank you!

The algorithm works! I happen to be a video game artist with a background in woodwork, so found an awful lot of joy in this video. 💖 I suspect a lot of your commentary is knowingly tongue-in-cheek, and from a development standpoint the most likely answer to a lot of odd choices is "that's good enough". Almost all the joinery is a simple case of two meshes clipping into eachother as it's often too costly on the performance to add more than the minumum geometry. The cabinet for example is clearly kitbashed from other pieces, (always better to reuse textures where possible, than to increase memory with bespoke ones). Finally the trestle legs at the end look to be an unfortunate case of not realising the UVs are rotated 90°. Happens to the best of us! Especially in a game with thousands of assets to pump out. Really fun to see an appreciation for this stuff, I'll be sure to follow ✨

I like to think that since Koroks themselves are essentially sentient plant-creatures, they would object to cutting down any living tree to create furniture. Instead they would forage for pieces of wood/branches/twigs that have naturally fallen off trees and bushes. That might explain why the korok bed is so oddly shaped/gnarled! Then again, I have no idea if decayed/broken wood is actually usable to make furniture.

Hateno village is not that distantly related to hyrule castle. Could it be possible that the more structral non-end-grain pieces of wood from a tree went into making those supply boxes, whereas the leftover, cheaper, slightly less durable cuts from the same trees were purchased by the furnature maker that supplied Hateno Village with its tables?

That Korok bed, i doubt it was steam bended, not only is it out of character, but those beams look like a single piece of wood, and a quite girthy one at that, steam bending that would not only be near impossible for the Koroks to do, but you would need some high tech steamers and a lot of time in order to do that in our world. Now what am thinking is that the Koroks grew that bed, literarily made the wood grow in those shapes. Look it up, there are furniture made by tieing saplings to scaffolding to make them grow in the shape you want, and you can make some really complex shapes with it, however, we never do it here in our world, but the tree spirits in Hyrule not only have the time to watch a tree grow, but its also in character that they would do it, as a matter of fact, i find it out of character for the Koroks to cut down a tree and then force it into the shape they want.

7:44 that's a tenon for sure. In games, we cant afford to create every minimal detail, specially when the detail is so minuscule like this one, so we employ some techniques to mimic the desired appearance. In this case, the effect creates the "separation" between those two wood pieces but if you pixel peep hard enough, you'll see that in fact, it's a single piece. That helps improving performance. Edit: Put a 3d game artist in the middle, that'd be a wonderful knowledge exchange 👀

As someone who's a professional modeler who has to make virtual wooden furniture all the time, this was actually very insightful and useful aha

I bet the castle decor and furniture was made first since it's such an important location in both games, which is why it is actually less detailed. They had more time or better textures for the rest of the areas.

25:56 I think that is supposed to be carvings instead of individual layers, like you can sometimes see on decorative pillars. These videos are fun.

I feel like a lot of the Hyrule castle furniture was designed with a very low polygon budget compared to the rest of the game so they had to try to get across as much detail as possible through the textures

I think I get what they were going for with the lines on the ends of the stuff in Hyrule castle, but it really needed to be three dimensional to look like proper carvings instead of flat.

Yeah, it's meant to be a scalloped edge, but they used a texture because doing so many curves using geometry would take thousands of triangles.

I find it truly fascinating, these insights into the weird choices that the artists make in these games. Surely a lot of this information about how wooden tables and chairs are physically constructed is freely available online. It's like they just don't bother to do a cursory google search, just fit the model and textures together into something that looks basically workable.

Was finally able to watch the Skyrim woodworking video too, it's honestly such a delight to have Eden sharing their expertise! Not even just the technical aspects (extremely cool in itself), but also fascinating details about historical context as well. Super excited for any future woodworking videos y'all might do together :D

The Rito table is the shape of an in-game Rupee, the main currency of Hyrule. The bird motif on the Hyrule Castle sofa is a Loftwing, a fictional bird with close ties to the royal family, that's based on the real-world shoebill stork!

I would love to see more of this for some of the areas you didn't cover in this video (Gerudo Town, Goron City, Terry Town, Lurelin Village, Kakariko Village, the stables, and/or monster pirate ships). Whatever you choose to do next, hope you have fun doing it, and that you have a great rest of your day.

This channel is one of the most unique channels on youtube. Trying to describe it to friends "this guy goes around in game as a member of the bureau of labor statistics to see how many people in an RPG town have gainful employment and does a statistical breakdown of the economy, population, age group, and employment at the end! He also does health department surveys for skyrim inns and taverns, weird odd and unremarkable places in video games. Its awesome!" "Wut?" "Ya! He also had a woodworking friend on and they did an episode of woodworking accuracy in Skyrim" "Thats...weird." "IKR. But its really awesome too! Check it out!" *friend watches some videos* "Wow! Why are these so interesting and addictive?!

The last piece of furniture doesn't strike me as having plywood legs. I feel that is simply a carved-in design for texture and ornamentation- This is the royal family, after all.

Really love this series!!!! Lots of fun to learn stuff about woodworking....I always enjoy when a new video of yours comes out - its lovely to see all the tiny details of games. As well as the more mundane things like labor statistics! One thing though - the jumpcuts with the quick flash of bright light is really harsh on the eyes, especially in dark environments. It also might be detrimental to those with photosenisivity/epilepsy. Still, thank you so much for another great entry in the series. Delighted at how well thought out all the totk/botw woodworking is...
Who can hold their breath the longest?
