Actually if I’m not mistaken, the reason why developers and 3D modellers used to mirror the model below the surface to create the floor reflection effect, is because adding lots of flooring or other surfaces with glossy mapping would have made the rendering super heavy and wasnt efficient for the hardware of the era. But glossy mapping for rendering did exist.
There's a few maps in call of duty that do exactly this
Yeah, before Ray Tracing there was mirroring.
Even games on the GBA did this
@@Mewtwo_150 it's such an interesting way to do it just building map geometry under transparent surfaces
@@jebbyy32 That and even scripted character models
Yes, it is WAY more computationally intensive to try to emulate the effects of a reflection, especially in reference to a moving camera, than to simply put shit upside-down under the water.
The clock under the Dead Pines Mall sign reads 11:34, which when read backwards spells “hell”. Another fun little Easter egg. Love your work on these!
I can't believe neither of these videos mentioned the fact that this series exists in the same universe as Neversoft's Spider-Man games, with both him and Wolverine having been playable at some point. I believe Spidey even mentions Tony Hawk in Enter Electro.
Oh yeah, I think I vaguely remember that when I played Enter Electro years ago, but I can't seem to find a reference to it... might have to play it again to refresh myself. Apparently Tony Hawk was also meant to be a playable character in the first Spiderman game as well, but that got scrapped.
Using the What If code will cause Spidey to quip if you land on a THPS billboard. I never played the 2nd one so I'm pretty sure it was in the first game, probably in the Venom chase level.
@@SullySadface Ah, my bad.
I remember it was on the first Neversoft Spider-Man game, during the rooftop police chopper chase, before Spidey faces against Rhino.
I think if you crawl on the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2 billboard, Spidey would say, “Tony Hawk! Hey I skated with that guy!”
He says that same quote during his FMV in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2.
Also takes place in the same universe as guitar hero (gh1 grim ripper was in proving ground)
The dog is a lost dog there's a poster for it, it would normally give you a gap in other versions
THUG 1 on PC was actually available in Australia as well! It's the first version I played. Had no idea that nowhere else got it
It's mentioned that it was released in Australia as well.
Why work hard on making a PC port of THUG 1 when it's only going to be released in 2 places in the entire world??
@ChaseMC215 i wondered that, too :/ 🤷🏻♂️ maybe we'll learn the full story some day soon
Well this is a surprise. I actually subbed to you because of that first video, been binging your vids since lol.
10:47 oh right, also there's a lot more glitches on the collector's edition since it was the first release version. my favorite one is if you buy too many items from the shops, the random money missions scattered around the map will stop spawning.
the part where tony defeats bam and the dark one eric sparrow in american wasteland was heart pumping, this franchises lore is so rich
Glad to see a part 2. Great work lad!
Your hardwork is appreciated bro!
This is what I’ve been waiting for! Thank the lord and bless your soul 🙏🏻
i'm kinda surprised neither iceberg video brought up how eric sparrow gets eaten alive by T.H.U.D. in the neversoft intro of THUG 1.
4:00 The transparency stems from a weird censor, where they removed the bed's visibility through the window, without simply removing the bed iirc ^^
Id like to think the issue comes with how PS2 games handled transparencies. If you look at a lot of PS2 to PC ports of that era, alpha effects are often badooking in the PC versions.
been looking forward to this!
Glad to see a part 2
Underrated ass channel! Thanks for all the hard work put in to this (:
Saw both back to back last night thinking there was no part 2 at first, so that was a nice surprise
I was gonna comment on the first one to compliment you, but it's even more applicable here.
Presentation is pretty good, but the use of clips for humor and stuff adds to the otherwise mundane
iceberg video experience, and the use of THPS sound effects too. And the music choices are _specially_ good
Dunno if you've covered Go Go Hypergrind and the likes by now, but I hope you do. Another game I'd recommend
looking into if you haven't is Evolution Skateboarding because it even beats late-era THPS in absurdity
Hell yeah, I loved the first one thanks for another one!
This video was a pleasant surprise great to see you upload again
Upload more. This was dope.
Hey for part 3, The Chef secret skater actually returns but in the GBA version of THPS4 port (which is pretty fun btw). Great vid my dude
Thanks for using the clip. I appreciate it.
Great vid mate. Guess i'll add in two things here just incase, one of them being another possible easter egg that is easy to miss:
1. Since im doing THPS2X eventually, and since i already showed that THA8 easter egg you didnt have footage for in the last video on my own vids, i'll see if i can pull off the Roswell boundary break easter egg there for footage of that.
2. in THUG2's Create-A-Park, there's a premade park called "Bubs Oldschool" which not only uses the Mars background, but also has 2 bowls on the corner of the map that coincidentally form an exclamation point. The map name, the background choice and the exclamation point bowls all point to it being a reference to Bubsy 3D... 8 years after Bubsy 3D. There's also Create-A-Park premade maps that reference Daytona and Crash Team Racing in name, alongside the re-occurring maps from throughout the game's Create-A-Park's, like Ji Land and Park of Doom.
Bit late but there's one thing that requires explanation: THUG PC - PC games never were region locked, so except lack of compatibility with modern Windows (PC being most backwards compatible platform, my arse) and hardware, there's nothing stopping you from buying an Aussie physical copy and playing it on your WinXP machine.
The second I finished the first video my recomend randomly refreshed and this was on the top
AYE YO PART TWO BABY
Another wonderfully made video! It was worth the six months to finally have a mostly solid conclusion to the mysteries and omitted section from the first and some other things to boot. Only thing that I can remember that didn’t get a definitive answer from the first video was who were the mysterious women, Yeah whispering in NY & the anime chick in East LA.
Good job! I want more
Great video. In all honesty, I was hoping you would make another iceberg video, but I won't badger you about it.
I believe that the black cube is supposed to be the secret room in the skinny man’s house that you can enter. When you enter that door that creaks open at the house, you fall into a black abyss then spawn back in.
These aren’t anything super groundbreaking but the female create-a-skater has some secrets in a few games.
In Pro Skater 3 if you select a tan skin color, the underwear will change from white to pink.
Pro Skater 4 has breast physics.
In Underground if you angle the camera just right you can see that the character is wearing blue star pasties, and these can be ever so slightly seen with the daisy tube top.
In Underground 2 and American Wasteland the female cas has different idle animations, and if you manipulate the camera to see the character’s chest in AW, it’s a black censor bar
Edit : Female voice 2 in THUG 2 says “You can’t choose between these and a kid in a body cast” instead of me
How did you find this information out
@@Whurlpuul I’m a girl
Your choice in music is excellent! Wasn’t expecting that blast from the past with the grace and glory mix lol awesome video too
GoGo Hypergrind theme in the back, nice.
Part 3!!
in tokyo lelvel of thps3 there the gabs are all japanese dishes. and when you get to the secret area the round neon commercial that drops is on it is written 門mon what means gate in japanese. the kyoto level has a sign of ヨドバシカメラyodobashi camera which is on of the biggest electric stores in japan.
Thanks for these
kickass
pro skater is referring to more of a "hey let's see if we can get this celebrity on board with our product" type deal. kinda like shark tank meets endorsement deals in the case of thps, it was a thing game dev studios did but I'm not sure about now tho.
Oh shit! Thanks for the shoutout! Glad I could help with some of the iceberg entry corrections. Some people say that I have a pretty decent knowledge on the THPS games and their quirks, and suggested that i should make my own iceberg on the series or specific entries in the series. I thought about it for a while, and I'm still interested in it.
And as always, another great video! I also didn't expect that ALPHAMastaG shoutout. I used to watch his stuff a lot back then, and he was kinda an inspiration for me to try to find glitches on my own. :3
Yooo u made my thugpro playlist that’s fire
@@bobsledboytrwzz9615 I did? Which thugpro playlist? :O
@@ShOscar getaloadofthis! Bro that whole thing is so fire
@@bobsledboytrwzz9615 ayyy! Glad you liked it! I also made a sequel to that soundtrack if you're interested. You can find it on the thpsx forums
I did not expect to be this early LMFAO
The gnome sound effect caught me REALLY off guard.
🔥🔥🔥
you have a nice speaking voice
Is the sound you used to list all the topics in each category a sound from Asteroids??
12:46 Wasnt there a secret demo unlock for a level of this game on THUG?
10:04 for gnome
"it's been 84 yeeeaarrrrssss"
Motox was a demo in either pro skater 4 or 3, can't remember. Access in the main menu. Developed by neversoft
Gotta thank THAW for introducing me to Tommy Guerrero and Soul Food Taqueria
you were actually not far off when you said “you have to pay for the revert in THPS HD” cuz only in the PC version was that the case. the console versions got the revert via an update
That one fact made me proud to be from New Zealand
Old man Peabody. He had this crazy dream of... breeding pine trees.
18:22 I think character drop to this box when you go to the doors in home
I believe thps 1 on n64 had moon gravity but i may be mistaken. And i feel like ive made it outside the fence on area 51 back in my youth so ill confirm it was possible somehow, but just gives you the red text if you go too far
wow only 70 view rn
man if they could make a good first person skating game
If only people talked more about the premade park, Montana. Though not as popular as the goat, it too is a running gag in the Tony Hawk series, poking fun at Neversoft's founder Joel Jewitt being from Montana and that the state is flat and empty.
since you mentioned Planet Tony Hawk website, I think it'll be interesting for you to learn that the founder of this site, a guy named Trevor Esposito has written a book covering the entire history of the Tony Hawk franchise called Tony Hawk's Gaming Domination. It is a must-have book for any hardcore TH fan
Thps 4 had a demo version of Moto X
3:30 you can emulate it with xemu
I did that thps 1 Roswell out of bounds when i was like 4 or 5 all the time i didn't know anyone else knew nice
Also it wasn't to big
Is the instrumental playing in the background of this video youth of the nation by p.o.d.??
Never mind it was the downhill domination menu music that reminded me of this song but fr tho go to the part before the abyss and then sing youth of the nation over that instrumental lol
im actually impressed with how much you seem to know about 3d assets, with how offhandedly you mentioned the skinning test amongst other things you talked about. are you an artist too? :o
3:12
What is with the THUG PRO Mod for PC? I think that works.
The video that he tried to get out of the map on Roswell people
That I watched said that you have to use private carrera and people say that there is a moon gravity cheat In tony hawks pro skater 1 if you need help
Don’t forget me when you’re famous
Lov u
THPS2X is backwards compatible on Xbox 360
Yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
10:04
GOD DAMN YOU
man tony hawk has a iceberg now?? why is this happening...................
Just emulate tony hawk pro skater 2x
which tony hawk game are you playing with the black hooded character?
Thug Pro
Only on PC
Wait a minute that music at 14:49 sounds so familiar...is that the menu music from downhill domination?????
... it says it in the corner
@@shyguy85 oh
I remember playing Canada on thug 2 and where the dude is peeing off the ramp if u lip on him on the edge he screams “I don’t wanna die” and starts falling and then you lip on it again and you fall underneath the level.
I have 2X play it on Xbox 360 I’ll boot it up tonight with cheats and give it a try
Couldn’t get the boundary break to work on roswell on 2X
K U R T
btw little "extension" to the tyr mystery, typing uiv instead of tyr changes the text to "AHEWUKM RDY"
Sorry brother but what do you mean you can't show it because you have no 2x copy or a OG Xbox? Have you ever heard about emulators? There is a real good emulator for OG Xbox. Also a OG Xbox goes for around 30 bucks on ebay and is besides the Wii and WiiU one of the most easy and best hackable consoles. You can build such a fantastic media center out of the OG Xbox just by hacking it. If you have more than one TVs in your home I recommend getting one!
The "neuroslaps" are alternatively, and prominently, called "neuroplants." At least, that's what I call them. Other than that, I only knew half the things listed in the video. The only piece of information in the Abyss was the KSPS rough demo of THPS4 because I've played the game on PS2.
420th like. Nice
Im really sad because tony hawk 1+2 is 113$ in brazil
te entendo bro :/
i farted
I love white women
