Because it is flat.How is it that the road doesn't look that way at all in my game? It's just a flat texture
It's just lighting and shading tricks that makes it look 3D/tesselated if seen from above angles.

Forza Horizon 2 and Star Wars Battlefront, the thread.
Remember Goldeneye on the N64?
Remember this part with the modem thing?
Here's how it looks if you zoom in on the modem with the sniper rifle:
Pretty crazy right? And yeah, it looks this way on the real N64. I remember being impressed by this, i think it was the first time i was ever impressed with this whole texturing deal.
Is this real? I can't imagine this is real, it looks way WAY too advanced for N64 or maybe I am just a noob and I don't understand a lick of graphic engineering.
fact still remains those textures are not impressive for the time period or technical capabilities.
It's a tiny texture that's just repeated a whole bunch, so it won't burn much memory.Is this real? I can't imagine this is real, it looks way WAY too advanced for N64 or maybe I am just a noob and I don't understand a lick of graphic engineering.

It's also not being layered with any other textures, and it's being used just like all the other textures in the game, so the sampling cost shouldn't be unusually high.
There's nothing technically crazy going on.

Eh? What are you even looking at? The model everyone is referring to has a completely matt, fabric look to it. You can tell the difference between glossy, matt and metal materials right?other people have complained as well, this thread is about best looking textures in games. the dude posting a pic of a simple model, that looks like shiny plastic, saying it's the most impressive thing he has ever seen in a game. when even textures from ps3 games are far more impressive, like the uncharted pic or kratos model.
I really don't look at textures that much...
Is that the best texture in the entire game? lol

who cares? if matte or not, there is nothing impressive about those textures, its flat, and has no detail.
Really? I'll take your word for it. I distinctly remember being a lot less impressed with it, seeing it directly. Maybe it breaks down when seen from different angles, dunno.
It is kind of hard getting a frame of reference on account of that being the only example floating around the net.
Interestingly, I am pretty sure that normal map on the tree is not very high resolution even. Rather, the sun and lighting angle is doing most of the work.This is one I took from The Uncharted Collection, basically textures res increases the closer you get. I know it's not 1 to 1 comparison as this is PS4 not PS3... I have another tree shot as well with a similar effect.

That jacket...that face...those teeth.
Let's not forget the wood on the left side. Amazing how good it looks.
Show me a better pizza!
Isn't that just a photograph of a pizza mapped onto a flat base?
Possibly, here’s another tree later on, plus a moss covered car in same area I always liked.
Despite being over 15 years old and low-res by today's standards...Silent Hill 2 & 3 still clearly had a damn lot of work put into their environment texturing.
Wtf? Kratos is definitely high poly. Look at his shoulders, hard to find the poly edges. Tons of smooth edges all over too. No way textures are AAing lol.who cares? if matte or not, there is nothing impressive about those textures, its flat, and has no detail.
the krotos model is not really high poly, the reason it looks so good is cause of the texture work, in terms of character model on last gen consoles and wiiu, this is clrealy the best.
Yes, which is why this and that GT texture are actually not the best of textures tbh.
Thx. Yeah, nice art - not particularly high texel density or materials though. Still looks good though.
Yes. Incredible far ahead of its time.
Imagine going from that, to 10 years later this
(no. the textures are not in the middle of loading)
Forza 6 storm drains lol. GT6 has ridiculous grass textures too.

The vanishing of ethan carter have awesome ground textures.
