Anons of /g/, I seek counsel.I'm following this nice series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYRrGTC7GtAI got up to picrel, then stopped to think about it and realized that I DIDN'T FUCKING UNDERSTAND ANYTHING AT ALL! I just copypasted shit.The math involved looks like fucking aliens I swear.How do I stop sucking so bad?
stop doing that?go through the code again and try to understand what it does, change values and move things around to see what it does and if/how it breaks
>linear algebra looks like alien shitbrutal self own. just get a linear algebra textbook.
>>107798413>I DIDN'T FUCKING UNDERSTAND ANYTHING AT ALL! I just copypasted shit.The way to follow a tutorial is to think about and try to understand every line you're given. Don't just copy and paste, write every line by hand, think about what you're typing and why, take as much time as it takes to understand each line. Don't copy the next line until you've understood the current one.Now go back and do it all again, properly this time.>The math involved looks like fucking aliens I swear.Learn the math involved. I assume it's a lot of trigonometry and linear parametrisations. If you don't understand the fundamental theory underlying what you're working on, of course you're not going to understand the implementation.

>>107798413This sounds silly but look at raycasting implementations on Scratch, it might make it easier to understand for you
>>107798413if you actually want to learn then you have to build your own idea. try something simple first.
>>107798413Start again until you understand the concepts? Wat
pft just type claude make me a doom clone and bam you got your thingy. why you even fretting dog? no need for tube tuts
you just have to keep banging your head against the wall for ages until you get it. If you don't give up you'll get there, it's hard and that's why most people don't make it.
