    Game developer here. The pixelated flashlight at 9:48 is probably because lights can use a texture known as a "cookie". This is a round texture that is used for lights to make them appear more realistic by adding detail that would be from a flashlight's glass in real life for example. The Minecraftify option without a doubt also pixelated this texture which is the reason of this weird pixelated flashlight.

      That and appreciating how Left 4 Dead 2 added the dynamic wound system (which culls a part of the model and inserts a modeled wound such as when they take a shotgun blast to the abdomen). It's such a tiny detail for what are supposed to be an enemy you kill thousands of in a single campaign and yet they feel more detailed and expressive than the Special Infected.

    Low res portal rtx is genuinely so close the exact aesthetic i want to see out of some game at some point
    I wanna see games that look like they're running on a ps1 that inexplicably can perform lighting calculations that look like they were done in blender cycles

    The ones that changed the most and are quite impressive are the TF2 one with PSX graphics and the L4D2 one blown me away. That was Hella amazing to look at. Major props for whoever put all of that effort to decimate the visuals of the game.

    a way to make tf2 look even worse is to use -"dxlevel 80" or "-dxlevel 81" making tf2 runing on Direct X 8 instead of Direct X 9
    note the performance gain depends on your pc's specs for example you use the top of the line specs that don't really support older Direct X versions anymore will get you less than with older ones

  • @hexacontaenneagon
    @hexacontaenneagon Місяць тому +1

    For Gmod, if you want to make it worse, than float into the air for a while using cheats. After a while, you end up floating into a little low poly replica of the default sandbox area!

    Did you tweak the DX level at all when making this video because I'm sure it would have made things look way worse if you did and it breaks stuff and changes the particles for TF2, at least.

    • @SUPDOZ
      @SUPDOZ Рік тому +7

      from a dx81 level user, he did not, in fact change the dx level. It's either at 90 or above.

    • @megakarlachofficial
      @megakarlachofficial Рік тому +7

      dx level basically makes the graphics look worse, but it technically does not change direct3D rendering to D3D8, its still D3D9, just with DX8 compatibility/feature level for older GPU that doesnt support all DX9 features.

    This reminds me of that Shounic video about deleting as many TF2 files as possible to see how much is needed for the game to run. The end result was a black and pink mess with no audio, errors everywhere, a smearing skybox, and completely broken animations. Despite how much was gutted you could still join servers.
