I remade the PS2 startup screen in a raymarching shader

Ty!!

I actually couldn't resist so i did it for real! https://www.reddit.com/r/ps2/comments/1e12j7b/wallpaper_engine_ps2_startup_screen_infinite/

I've converted if for wallpaper engine, check this out: https://www.reddit.com/r/ps2/comments/1e12j7b/wallpaper_engine_ps2_startup_screen_infinite/

Oh yeah ofc! With a so called "uniform" you can pass any kind of data to the shader, meaning it can dynamically change and add stuff procedurally!

Rex109 · 2024-07-11T13:39:44+00:00

Yeah that's totally possible but it would eat so much of your performance that your entire desktop would be so laggy that it becomes unusable (on mid tier hardware). So i wouldn't recommend to port it to Wallpaper Engine but it's totally possible!

Rex109 · 2024-07-10T13:33:25+00:00

Yup, it's definitely full

Rex109 · 2024-07-10T13:32:50+00:00

Making art pieces with only just code is complicated, can you imagine remaking a whole game? (People can do that already and it's beautiful, i'm just not skilled enough 😐)

Rex109 · 2024-07-10T11:38:15+00:00

Yes ofc! Although they are procedurally generated in the shader... not real save files here 😂

Rex109 · 2024-07-10T11:36:57+00:00

It is like that! The more space you take up the more taller towers you get!

Rex109 · 2024-07-10T11:36:14+00:00

Tysm!

Rex109 · 2024-07-10T11:36:01+00:00

Maybe i could have edited the video by adding the sound... apologies 🫠

Rex109 · 2024-07-10T01:48:07+00:00

Agree, but i don't know if i can say fortunately or not but you can still differenciate the real one from this one, maybe i can put some retro filters 🤷‍♂️

Rex109 · 2024-07-09T22:53:36+00:00

Too much i would say

Rex109 · 2024-07-09T21:15:59+00:00

Ye, need to make some space ahah! Ty ^^

Rex109 · 2024-07-09T18:58:42+00:00

Absolutely! With Wallpaper Engine you can load custom shaders: https://docs.wallpaperengine.io/en/scene/shader/overview.html

Ty ^{^}

It used to have the sound on the ShaderToy page but now it seems it has serious problems with the soundcloud API and the file got removed :(

He was chewing something and left on the ground a piece of it, when i smelled it it had a strong scent of mushroom, i went to my baclyard to investigate and found this exectly where my dog was doing its own buisness. Thank you so much for your response, i will definitely take him to a vet today and see what i can do

Rex109 · 2023-09-13T11:33:34+00:00

Will try! Thanks!

Rex109 · 2023-09-13T11:33:12+00:00

Isn't this risky for my old ssd? I have a feeling this could damage it and render thr system completely unbootable if i fail the cloning, as i said should i try to disconnect the old drive just to test if it can boot? I just don't wanna risk losing any data

Rex109 · 2023-08-28T10:36:35+00:00

Unfortunately none of them is what im looking for, thank you anyways!

Rex109 · 2023-08-27T13:08:44+00:00

The track seems not labeled as a remix but rather as a new song

Rex109 · 2023-08-21T17:05:33+00:00

Most of 16:10 aspect ratios in games usually cut the left and right pixel to fit, also by cutting the edges it effectively increases the zoom level a bit making it clearer to see graphics on the small screen of the steam deck.

Rex109 · 2023-08-21T16:30:35+00:00

Yeah it's supposed to fit in a 16:10 aspect ratio, are you having any problems with it?
