I feel like the title of this is kinda misleading. Perlin noise isn't a single texture, but a concept that's used to MAKE textures. Title implies that it's a single file that everyone uses. Kinda like how movies use the whilhelm scream. This is more comparable how a lot of companies might use the same recording studio to record different screams for different movies.

[@amaryllis0]

I mean, it is essentially the same infinite texture, and people just sample it in different places and at different scales

[@mrglissi]

@@amaryllis0 I would say the same, if you're familiar with noise types, this definitely makes sense, but I agree, it could be explained (shown) in a little more detail :)

[@Eckster]

Agreed, it's a massive oversimplification of what really amounts to RNG with varying smooth gradients between RNG values.

[@pcenero]

the title does make some sense but yeah it is slightly misleading. maybe "why all games texture the same way" would be more accurate

[@till8413]

@@amaryllis0 could say the same about music, all the music is the same, part of an infinite music, just sampled in different places and scales

[@alec_almartson]

Perlin Noise for the Visuals is like the Random Number for Programmers... and thus it makes every instance of a Texture or Animation come alive with its own 'personality'. Great video, thank you for teaching us about these amazing GameDev Techniques!

[@USBEN.]

Yep like 2D random numbers.

[@Kronos_LordofTitans]

Well it is a random number based system. Perlin is pretty much a grid with a random value at each vert and the interpolates between those points to get the final resolution. It's how its so relatively smooth.

[@ajanibilby]

@@USBEN. It can actually be N-dimensional, so you can have many more, i.e. 4D for volumetric fog over time

[@TylerBata]

It’s not a texture. It’s a function. Texture would imply discrete values. You can discretize perlin noise into a texture which has its uses but it’s not infinite without repetition.

[@MrCrompz]

It's technically not one texture. It's a technique USED to create textures. It is, however, probably used in nearly every video game. Great video!

[@nofabe]

Technically it is, it just doesn't exist as an image, but rather an algorithm that can be used to create a texture, but it can definitely be displayed as an image

[@DreadKyller]

@@nofabe being an algorithm that can be displayed as a texture is different from it being directly a texture. Given any algorithm there's a conceivable way to generate a texture from it, but calling those algorithms textures in of themselves is misleading. Perlin Noise is just that, noise, it's a noise algorithm, you can represent that noise as colors on texture, but the noise itself isn't a texture. Perlin noise can be used to generate audio without having anything to do with pixels, does this make Perlin noise a sound? Perlin noise can represent a vector field, does this mean that it is a vector field? For example a sine wave isn't inherently a sound, but it can be used to create a sound, similar concept. I could go on. Just because an algorithm can be used as or presented as a texture doesn't mean it intrinsically is. A texture implies a certain connotation to it, of some form of color data, these are properties derived from, and not fundamental to, Perlin noise.

[@Xackory]

@@nofabe no it’s not

[@RSpudieD]

It's really impressive how much noise textures can make things more realistic and in Blender, I find myself reaching for the noise textures in almost everything I do.

[@stanleybochenek1862]

imma just blow up a nuke in blender to make some noise to wake up my neighbors

Thanks for this! Perlin noise came up super often when I was learning to make textures in Substance Designer. It's very interesting to see it being used in other contexts as well

[@TheMrSzony]

Simplex Noise is actually used more often, because it's faster, and it looks pretty much the same.

[@spiderspyy]

This!

[@yveltalsea]

If I recall correctly, I dont think the creator is an industry professional, so they probably are just explaining the things they know. Which is a bit unfortunate cause as a lot of people know, yeah simplex has been dominant for a while

[@yveltalsea]

honestly might warrant an entire reupload. It's kinda funny how almost every time he repeats it its wrong ;;

[@TheMrSzony]

@@yveltalsea yeah clips don't really show when and how they are used, just random clips as well.

[@spiderspyy]

@@yveltalsea Meh it is fine, they are similar enough but a mention of simplex would have been helpful for new developers. Personally I would not even call code noise textures unless it is static :p But it makes for a nice video title. Lets not be too hard on someone making a nice video. Edit: thing is, people will probably discover Simplex on their journey to optimize it anyway.

[@neist4361]

so if i get it right, perlin noise is the visual manifestation of "random"

Im really glad you are back and hope you ever feel better, if you ever need another break we are fine with that :)

[@Eduardfp]

Happy to see you back! Hope you could recover properly!

[@JanbluTheDerg]

That and various other noise textures. I made a road texture by using a noise texture and stretching it slightly, then having another noise texture as a mask for another noise texture that handles some smaller details. I had the first noise texture also work on the normal map, and on the roughness to make the road seem more 3D and varied. I got told that it was pretty realistic.

[@gustytricks]

I'm sorry but the funniest thing is that half the thumbnail is genshin yet you dont mention it

[@sernia9220]

I actually didn't know Perlin noise was used to make grass flow in the wind, that is really cool!

[@yeetus7449]

[@c0der23]

I knew about it being used in terrain generation, but most others were new to me, great video!

[@glitchsister]

I've never used it consciously in anything I've made in rpgmaker but I can understand why it would in high-tech 3D games. pretty neat stuff

[@IIStaffyII]

I've been using Perlin noise for a while now in my own game development and I'm constantly discovering new ways to utilize it. I've discoverd how its not only for graphics but also for code. I've been using it to add a touch of randomness to item hovering and to control AI aiming accuracy. But the real magic happens when you combine it with a sine wave, it creates a realistic swaying effect for enemies' aim, like they're taking a breath before firing. It's just amazing how much depth and realism it can add to the game.

[@quinndepatten4442]

That course looks so awesome. I gotta pick it up.

[@powguma]

Where is 'why' in the title explained? The video barely explained what it is (a noise map, but that's it), but it didn't explain how it was created or why it's so widely used. The whole video was just a list of examples.

[@Reggedit.]

One actual brick texture was used on hundreds of N64 games it was from some kind of "texture collection book"

Like, you don't actually say what it is, just that it is noise and it was made for Tron. But what is noise? What defines noise? What was the actual function Perlin came up with?

Fantastic video on Perlin noise! I enjoyed learning about its application in creating natural-looking textures and patterns. Are there any other noise algorithms that you would recommend for creating procedural generation in games?

[@teamakesgames]

Yes, Simplex noise - also designed by Ken Perlin, has a few advantages. It's faster/cheaper to compute and can easily do higher dimensions (4D, 5D, can be used to animate 3D noise over time like clouds).
