The Simpsons peaked here.
>>215494702>still not possible to render this in real timeholy fuck what happened
>>215494702Close, but wrong. It actually peaked here.
>>215494702why would early rasterized CGI transferred to video frames have film grain?
>>215494746Why wouldn't it?
>>215494768because it comes from the grain of film
>>215494702I just got done watching the Twilight Zone episode that inspired this, God was it fucking awful. The Simpsons did it so much better.
>>215494746There's no film grain you loon, unless you're talking about the bit where he ends up in our world.
>>215494746if you do ray tracing, you have to sample the same pixel several times so rays that bounce off in different directions average to some reasonable value. it render gets better the more rays you compute, but obviously there's a trade off between compute time and final resultpic related was stopped early
I miss Phil Hartman
>>215494788>the twilight zoneis this kino?
>>215494893A few episodes are absolutely iconic. The vast majority is slop however I'm afraid.
Hey, watch it, coney!
>>215494788Written by Richard Matheson no less.
>>215494805how do you not see the grain pattern in the OP picture?>>215494813the Simpsons scene was obviously not ray traced so unless OP pic is recreation then render noise is not relevant. In the 90s you rendered with rasterization which means each pixel's color is calculated by a simple math formula applied to what surface it's looking at and the indecent angle of the lightsource to that surface (this is called blinn or phong shading depending on the formula) no simulated light is bouncing around. In this era you only raytraced specific objects that had either a chrome or glass material and it took 20x longer to do those pixels. You can see when the simpsons scene has water it's just blue shaded transparent stuff, not refracting water so there is no ray-tracing used
>>215494892Me too anon... me too.
It peaked here. It's still funny but nowhere near as memorable.
>>215494958Absolute DOGSHIT episode.
>>215494930>the Simpsons scene was obviously not ray tracedit was almost certainly ray tracedt. huge 3d computer graphics nerd
>>215494892Recently rewatched Small Soldiers and he was easily the best thing about that movie. RIP
>>215494969Bitch stfu
>>215495006>graphics nerdfake and obvious zoomer. I bet you think toy story was ray traced too and literally don't even know what scanline or micropoly mean
>>215494930i'll add that the shadows and reflections in the sphere give it away.btw, ray tracing has been around since the 70s. the math is really simple, you just have to do a lot of it.
>>215494969Filtered
>>215494958Overrated slop. Grimes was a cunt. Got what he deserved.
>>215495048the fact that you think it's render noise because that's what you 'recognize' because you were born in the 21st century is so sad. one day you might actually learn about 'reyes' etc (not rays not ray-tracing) and you'll be embarrassed about these posts
>>215495126reyes doesn't cast shadows, it's just subdivision and rasterization
>>215495009The best thing about small soldiers was the burger king pro.otiin they had.
>>215495424>pro.otiinDid this anon just have a fucking stroke?
>>215494702Seasons 1-2: good but not worth a rewatchSeasons 3-9: timeless Seasons 10-11: dogshit Seasons 12-19: trash television but comfy in its own way and has some good laughsSeasons 20-onwards: becomes hard to defend, just zombie garbage, autopilot show
>>215495335>quickly wikipias reyes>scans for something that makes it seem not applicable >choses 'cast shadows' i can't imagine being you
>>215494969No, it is an excellent episode. The first truly awful Simpsons episode is When You Dish Upon a Star.
>>215494893Don't listen to the other faggot. TZ is amazing if you view it though the lens of when it came out. It was absolutely MUST-WATCH weekly TV. Very groundbreaking storytelling. Many sci fi tropes that still live on today. Plus it's ultimate comfy viewing if you're laying in bed or lazing on the couch
>>215494893Nearly 99% of every single scifi reference you will ever see in television is a callback to the Twilight Zone. Early Simpsons Treehouse of Horrors especially.
