minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish4•3 months agoPs1 is great because it’s a mips core, a funky 3d engine and the main weirdness is the spu. The n64 is all weird (albeit with a similar but 64bit mips core).

minus-squarekadulinkfedilinkEnglish3•3 months agoThe PlayStation hardware is barely capable of 3D at all. Sure, it can accelerate some polygon math, but that’s about it. No texture mapping, no Z depth, no floating point precision, no anti-aliasing, no shading.

minus-squarekadulinkfedilinkEnglish2•3 months ago and floating point isn’t a precision Floating point precision does not mean I’m saying “floating point is a precision”, whatever that sentence means. The PlayStation can’t use anything but integers to place points in 3D space.
