Thanks for hiring me to make the emulator! It was so cool watching all of the programs actually running in Minecraft now instead of just my program. Excited for the series!
Well, when working with displayed graphics either it being in a 2D or 3D environment, making use of the screen buffer always has a lot of benefits. The only difference with modern display devices is that they provide more information than just the pixel being on or off at some index location (X,Y) relative to the screen resolution and size, they also have color channel information too as well a light intensity depending on the coloring scheme that is being used. The screen buffer can be used in a wide variety of applications. Most graphics API and rendering pipelines will also have multiple screen buffers typically 2-3 are most commonly used, but one could implement more. These are commonly known as the front and back buffers and are usually swap to and from via the swapchain mechanisms of the graphics pipeline. If one has ever worked with DirectX, OpenGL, or Vulkan as well as any of their shader languages, they fully understand this. Making use of the screen buffer within your render frame calculations is a quite powerful tool.
modern graphics api's suck in that they don't have access to what has drawn, so that you have to reuse math used to draw, that reuse is wasted cycles, and at best you can store or use data mid way through saving some cpu at the possible cost of ram or cache while still needing some reuse
Using the screen as memory is something the very first computers did with CRT screens. The phosphorus would have a short time of "afterglow" where it could be "read". It had to be re-written to periodically to preserve the memory state. Edit: Its the Williams-Kilburn tube
most displays in embedded tech especially low power stuff like Arduino LCDs just work like memory with a few special registers, also back in the day before GPUs, a video card was just 2 port memory being repeatedly read and converted to analog to drive a CRT or communicate over VGA
The computer can't read the phosphors on the glass of your screen, nor can the screen itself. You would read from a frame buffer which may casually be referred to as "the screen" because it is the fixed space in computer memory which will be drawn, (more or less) irrespective of memory state (aka, the part of the machine that draws the image doesn't know nor care about what the actual computer is doing, it simply draws what's in the frame buffer at any moment). You're still reading from the computer's memory, unless the system was architected in such a way that the screen had its own internal frame buffer that was readable by the computer (something I am not aware of being common practice in CRTs)
@@UODZU-P Never heard of it before, super cool! Sorry for the misunderstanding I would still hesitate to call them screens since no visuals are displayed on them, but given that it's the same technology I definitely see what you mean now
Very cool! Recently I implemented my own simple virtual machine with my instruction set architecture and my own compiler with support for labels and macros in the future, it was so fun!
Redstone computers have come a long way. I still remember when that one kid made a graphing calculator using mostly redstone torches, or that LGP guy who made a computer with multiple programs using command blocks. Looking forwards to your series!
lol, I have literally listened to the exact same music earlier today (5:10)! It's a remix of the song Reconstructing Science from portal 2, and this exact remix is from this video: ua-cam.com/video/LmthKci9PgE/v-deo.html
I'm super exited for this. There were all kinds of hardcoded games in minecraft, but i was always interested if it were possible to make a programmable one. Once you showed the emulator for the instruction set and I saw the community start making programs I started getting so excited! People making programs for this is just so fun! I joined the discord to make some myself, hopefully this project goes extremely well! Good job!
@@9tales9faces bro all the difference C++ has from Python or whatever are pointers and absence of GC. It is default high-level PL. C has been created to develop Unix with easier tools(not ussing assembly language), it is just meant to be high level
@@dikiy_0pezdal Again, he never said it wasn't. He Just said most people who program in even higher languages think of it as low and it's comparatively pretty low.
@@9tales9faces It was really dizzying for me seeing C (no pluses) being called low-level after spending months doing assembly X3 C++ takes up a really useful niche of not hiding low-level operations while also enabling high-level abstractions with classes, division of concerns between what's inside an object and what's outside, and polymorphism. That can be done in C too, of course; for example, Doom is written in C, and defines a common superclass for all game entities that need to be processed and memory-managed, with more specific types for sprite objects and geometry objects, which both include the superclass as their first field so the pointers to objects of either type can be casted into the superclass type without issue. This is done in the game simulation loop which iterates over all the objects and calls their update method to do their thing, this method effectively being a virtual method, as it is radically different for the two subclasses. Furthermore, constructors and destructors are provided to begin and end the objects' lifetimes. That said, it is definitely more cumbersome and risky with pointer casting than implicit polymorphism, which a C++ compiler would validate and spit out an error about if the type is not a subclass of the requested type.
1:19 Oh, you have to store the programming on there too? While that's a different story, typically you insert a cartridge with its own set of memory for that.
I mean in "modern" systems you load your program into memory too And for disks I would say it's good too because magnetic tape or old didks have very bad random access so of you have to do a lot of conditinal jumps or function calls, it would be slow
rly looking forward to that series. Gonna teach this stuff to so many people. Great contribution to the space...gonna lead to even more rapid advancements
The fact that you (and your buddies) spent weeks to create something like that... just to make a 10 minutes long "let´s show" video is insane bro!

I recommend learning to program. I recommend a high or mid language. C++ lua nim python. Lua is good for game dev bc is light and quick. Python is used for data science and machine learning. C++ for performance and games though highly complex. Nim is like python but is more performance based. Though be careful with c++ that shit will make you insane. Don't do it without some teacher or online guide.
@@spin4team4096 I mean I didn't specify how many weeks. And his buddies probably didn't spent as much time as on this project as he himself did, so I used "weeks" to describe the combined effort of all the helpers. And like I said, I don't have the knowledge to understand how much effort and time this actually takes
Im glad you’re making this! I enjoy the clever techniques you use to make custom games, but what amazes me about computers is how general they are. I’m interested in learning about the architecture that enables this. I want to learn how computers work at a fundamental level and this series seems like it will be great. Looking forward to it!
Minecraft redstone computers and building one myself was literally the way I learned and understood how real life computers work and how to program and everything... Once you do this, everything else will be just... kind of easy, haha... highly recommend.
you would need the screen to be on the ground/horizontal as the build limit would make this impossible, theoretically its possible, but you'd need an absolutely massive display, and a ton of people to keep chunks loaded, and the memory would need to be way, way, way larger, there's over 1.5 million active cells in the most compact 8 bit programmable pc, there's probably smaller non-programmable pc's out there in GOL, but still you're likely looking at well over 100,000 cells for something really basic.
@@CristalitOfficial the bounding box for the 8 bit pc is 311607 × 303995 pixels, so both of those would need to be multiplied by 2 as a pixel in a pixel display is usually in minecraft 2x2 (it's what matt uses) so the area would be a 623214 x 607990 block as for memory thats a much harder thing to answer, coz you could give the "each pixel is 1 bit" but you're not using just rom (this would come up to 94gb of rom, wayyyy too much). with ram you could probably knock that down by a ton, but if i had to take a really random guess as im no expert in compression and coding, it'd probably still be around several hundred kb's.

Hey Matt, awesome video! I'd love to see the end results of your projects rendered in higher than 1080p, since your machines are getting immensely detailed
I mean you could. But it's either easier this way or just the build style/architecture he is used to. Technically not wrong to do it this way since there are a lot of different cpu architectures. Just depends on knowledge and application.
@@drewno3821 yes, thought the same, maybe that's just the way the he is more familiar with. But the reason why having a shared RAM for both the program and the data is that it more flexible.

@@ElementX.The mandlebrot set is basically a program that generates a really weird and infinitly recoursive plant-like thing. If you search "mandelbrot set" on UA-cam, you will see some videos that explain it better. This is also what you see in the thumbnail on the screen.
I’m assuming he recorded a replay with the full computer there and rendered that. Then he would have deleted all the components but one (in game), rerendered the same camera path with just that one component and repeat for each of the components. You then put the clips all in top of each other with the full computer one on top in your video editing software and set the opacity to like 10% or smth. Then you hide all the clips with individual components and show them when the camera is looking at each one. That’s already a lot of moving parts but what impresses me the most is that he SYNCED ALL OF THAT WITH MUSIC. I have a few other channels where I do car/musician edits and it must’ve taken a lot of planning to keep smooth camera movement while having that music sync effect. Props bro this is amazing
@@JpFromAiBites That is a lot of work for a short clip. Also the camera would have to move in the exact same way for every shot. Does he use some kind of mod for that?
@@stickguy9109 yea it is a lot of work. pretty sure you can use identical camera paths in replay mod, which is most likely what he used on all of the cinematics in this video
This is a very impressive computer. And i look forward to seeing your future computer building guides. I also think you should make a tutorial for the previous computer design you built.
starting my comp arch class in like a month, we design a basic cpu in there. cant wait to apply it to my minecraft world, most ive done was an ALU routed to a display, haven’t done all the proper logic for retrieving instructions, and reading/writing memory lol
I’m love you bro I’ve been trying to build my own redstone computers, however I’m not super familiar with all the Minecraft mechanics of redstone or the tricks, I just know how to construct binary circuits and I’ve basically have been building ram circuits blind and they work but they’re kind of slow and I can’t find any tutorials so I’ve just been on this grind and here you are being the coolest person alive and releasing in depth tutorials
@@krazy121 That's what they mean. They wanted Matt to list both as x86, maybe to avoid the implication that only Intel uses it, but I think it was clear enough that Matt was just giving examples.
hey man, just want to say that thanks to you i learned to enjoy computer architecture! i mean, 2 semesters ago in uni i failed it pretty hard so for the next semester i studied it and the redstone videos helped me understand and enjoy it, and thanks to this enjoyment i ended up acing the course lmao. great content, amazing videos!
This is genuinly so cool, I've been studying SystemVerilog in college these past few months and the fact that most of the logical parts of computers can be made on minecraft redstone even created an inside joke with our project reviewers in class, in which they would challenge us to do the circutry in minecraft first before passing it to Quartus II. Amazing work my man
Recently I've been learning about redstone computers, even designing my own (honestly slow and archaic) calculator. So this will come in handy in terms of improving my redstone machinery.
you should try to use chests to hold more memory in a smaller space(you can call it your disk space). because hoppers can extract stuff in a consistent order you should be able to use item sorters and hoppers to read what is in the chest. if you use all 27 slots in a sulker box with the 2^6 posable amounts of items in each slot(make sure they are different types so they can be read easier). that is 27*6=162 bits of memory per sulker that is over 20 bytes plus with sulkers they can bee easily moved around. It would be supper slow to read and wright to but that is why you just call it the disk
This is really cool, I love your transition through your builds, really impressed. Also the hige program memory is making me rethink my irritation with Harvard architecture, especially with so little memory bandwidth in MC it might be the way to go.
I have spent 2 months learning 16bit assembly and now Im pretty sure I can understand your projects 🎉🎉🎉 Thank you for showing me something beuatiful like this! Have a good day!!
3:45 Giving me flashbacks of trying to program a microcontroller all with one block. The logic all seemed right, but it seems VHDL prefers having seperate blocks sometimes. (That or I just did something wrong that I'm.totally unaware of.)
Love your vids as always, and how you can always keep pushing the limits of redstone even further. I wanted to ask you: what library did you you use to generate block schematics (like you did with the barrels) in python? Do you use the litematica mod or the default minecraft structure block?

@@attilatorok5767making a compiler shouldn't be that hard. But you easily create too many instructions that you can skim when you code directly in assembly
@@mavrikgaming970i said it before the video was released
masterpiece in Numerical systems absolutely amazing! I am really amazed, great job!
You clickbaited us SO HARD. I WANTED TO SEE THE MANDELBROT SET IN MINECRAFT
Awesome, especially considering the trick with the screen.
That is why you didn't reply for whole month
look on his 2nd newest post
He had IRL things too😢
*he lost someone
Fantastic video Matt!! I love this kind of stuff. That showcase at the end was something AMAZING. I could not believe the fluidity and creativity possible with this machine you have made. I am looking forward to seeing more. You deserve ten times more subscribers. And I know you will get there.
But acerola,
that's so cool. I'm so excited for the serie too!
*Mandelbrot set*
What does that mean ?
@@ElementX.The mandlebrot set is basically a program that generates a really weird and infinitly recoursive plant-like thing. If you search "mandelbrot set" on UA-cam, you will see some videos that explain it better. This is also what you see in the thumbnail on the screen.
@@ElementX. The shape in thumbnail
@@ElementX. look it up. It's an amazing fractal
Why everyone is saying that, what is the point
Perfect music choice for the showcase ! The size of the computer reminds the huge complex of aperture sciences !
5:35 how did you record that masking effect? Is it a mod or did you do it in post?
I’m assuming he recorded a replay with the full computer there and rendered that. Then he would have deleted all the components but one (in game), rerendered the same camera path with just that one component and repeat for each of the components. You then put the clips all in top of each other with the full computer one on top in your video editing software and set the opacity to like 10% or smth. Then you hide all the clips with individual components and show them when the camera is looking at each one. That’s already a lot of moving parts but what impresses me the most is that he SYNCED ALL OF THAT WITH MUSIC. I have a few other channels where I do car/musician edits and it must’ve taken a lot of planning to keep smooth camera movement while having that music sync effect. Props bro this is amazing
@@JpFromAiBites That is a lot of work for a short clip. Also the camera would have to move in the exact same way for every shot. Does he use some kind of mod for that?
@@stickguy9109 yea it is a lot of work. pretty sure you can use identical camera paths in replay mod, which is most likely what he used on all of the cinematics in this video
This is a very impressive computer. And i look forward to seeing your future computer building guides. I also think you should make a tutorial for the previous computer design you built.
0:00AM💀
Very excited for the series
00:01 trying to see if the top comment thing works
How did you do this
No freaking way
Yeah it does😵💫
You better keep that a secret because when people find out how this works they'll abuse it on their spam bots
It does
Great to see from you again
Can it run google?
there's just not enough data memory
Absolutely astonished, amazing job!
2:34 Bro called C++ high level
It is tho lmaooo
starting my comp arch class in like a month, we design a basic cpu in there. cant wait to apply it to my minecraft world, most ive done was an ALU routed to a display, haven’t done all the proper logic for retrieving instructions, and reading/writing memory lol
OMG YESS NOW DO AN AI IN MINECRAFT THAT CAN 2:28 BULID a redstone AI

Feel like this video was so short for such a massive project, a huge understatement for the amazing work. Excited for the series!
3d graphing calculator??
I’m love you bro I’ve been trying to build my own redstone computers, however I’m not super familiar with all the Minecraft mechanics of redstone or the tricks, I just know how to construct binary circuits and I’ve basically have been building ram circuits blind and they work but they’re kind of slow and I can’t find any tutorials so I’ve just been on this grind and here you are being the coolest person alive and releasing in depth tutorials
2:50 intel and amd*
was just an example
amd and intel both use x86 architecture where as apple and most mobile chips like snapdragon are based on arm
Amd also uses x86 bro 💀
@@krazy121 That's what they mean. They wanted Matt to list both as x86, maybe to avoid the implication that only Intel uses it, but I think it was clear enough that Matt was just giving examples.
@@krazy121 that's exactly what i said
hey man, just want to say that thanks to you i learned to enjoy computer architecture! i mean, 2 semesters ago in uni i failed it pretty hard so for the next semester i studied it and the redstone videos helped me understand and enjoy it, and thanks to this enjoyment i ended up acing the course lmao. great content, amazing videos!
FIRST IM FIRST
No one cares

@GeradoGonzalez_pv6hw he’s just exited like calm down bro if your that annoyed just ignore him no need to be a hater

I was actually
Can't wait for the series! The build looks great
Why you are making it a premier? Just upload it as normal video is it too hard?
Premiers must be removed from youtube asap
Very excited for the series!
This is so cool man! Can you do some simple red stone tutorials in the future? Would love to see content like that!
Very excited for the series can't wait to see it!
Looking forward for the series.
I CANNOT WAIT for this series
Epic! Thanks for your work. Amazing presentation
This is genuinly so cool, I've been studying SystemVerilog in college these past few months and the fact that most of the logical parts of computers can be made on minecraft redstone even created an inside joke with our project reviewers in class, in which they would challenge us to do the circutry in minecraft first before passing it to Quartus II.
Amazing work my man
Thanks for one of the best fundamental explenations about both computers and coding I have seen.
that series announcement got you another subscriber, looking forward to that
Recently I've been learning about redstone computers, even designing my own (honestly slow and archaic) calculator. So this will come in handy in terms of improving my redstone machinery.
you should try to use chests to hold more memory in a smaller space(you can call it your disk space). because hoppers can extract stuff in a consistent order you should be able to use item sorters and hoppers to read what is in the chest. if you use all 27 slots in a sulker box with the 2^6 posable amounts of items in each slot(make sure they are different types so they can be read easier). that is 27*6=162 bits of memory per sulker that is over 20 bytes plus with sulkers they can bee easily moved around. It would be supper slow to read and wright to but that is why you just call it the disk
I was literally programming an emulator for my own custom CPU ISA when I saw this video on my recommended! Great work dude! :D
This is absolutely insane to watch. Looks like magic to the untrained eye (mine). Good luck on this project, I can't wait!
Nice editing in your showcase.
This is really cool, I love your transition through your builds, really impressed. Also the hige program memory is making me rethink my irritation with Harvard architecture, especially with so little memory bandwidth in MC it might be the way to go.
I have spent 2 months learning 16bit assembly and now Im pretty sure I can understand your projects 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for showing me something beuatiful like this! Have a good day!!
2:40 most C++ compilers actually compile straight to machine code, with some having the option to compile to assembly in between
3:45
Giving me flashbacks of trying to program a microcontroller all with one block. The logic all seemed right, but it seems VHDL prefers having seperate blocks sometimes. (That or I just did something wrong that I'm.totally unaware of.)
Love your vids as always, and how you can always keep pushing the limits of redstone even further. I wanted to ask you: what library did you you use to generate block schematics (like you did with the barrels) in python? Do you use the litematica mod or the default minecraft structure block? Thanks in advance
