Elias Daler explains how the PlayStation 1 GPU handles fog and demonstrates how to implement Silent Hill style fog on real PS1 hardware.

I studied Silent Hill and now I can tell you how it works. You'll learn like a half of what PS1 GPU does from this one video. Support my stuff: ko-fi.com/eliasdaler Follow my progress: twitter.com/EliasDaler Slides ("playable" on PS1): eliasdaler.itch.io/ps1-fog Silent Hill Map Examiner: github.com/ItEndsWithTens/SilentHillMapExaminer Contents --------------- Intro Why fog is important Modern fog CLUT fog Fade-to-black fog Silent Hill fog Outro ------------- The slides were programmed on PS1. All the footage was recorded through PS1/Retrotink 4K Pro. All the tape footage was recorded on Sony CCD-TRV70E. This video took 100+ hours to make. This is my first "serious" video with voice over and first video I ever had to edit. I hope it turned out okay. :) (P.S. The girl model is Clock Tower 3 save icon, it's a temporary asset until I make some good NPC models) Music ---------- * Takayuki Ishikawa (Ta-Ka), Shinya Watabe - Untitled (Diver's Dream OST) * Akira Yamaoka - The Day Of Night (Silent Hill 2 OST) * Shoji Meguro - House of Fortune Telling (Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers OST) * Shoji Meguro - Virtual Art Gallery (Chess) (Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers OST) * Toshiko Tasaki - Futagamikado Basement (Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers OST) * Masaharu Iwata - A Style of Baroque (Baroque OST) * Takahiro Ogata, Ryo Yamazaki, Q-suke - Elderly Hate Young Adult Literature (Fantastep OST)
