I wouldn't be surprised if it was doable. Ray-tracing can be rather simple to impliment if you have the source code and an intermediate knowledge of graphics rendering.

Soon you'll have this game running in 16:9 widescreen 4k, 240fps, with HDR, and RTX!

Considering they got raytracing working in Doom (the original, not 2016), I'd say that's not too much of a stretch. From a technical standpoint, that is. I doubt anyone with the required knowledge still cares enough about this game.

@@Timsturbs to be clear, it's very different from what we think of as raytracing for 3D graphics today. In old sprite based shooters they used rays to figure out orientation, scaling and shading of sprites. However it was made possible by locking those rays to the x-z plane. So essentially super simple 2D raytracing in a 3D game. A cool trick, but got superceded by rasterization for rendering more "true" 3D games. Until GPUs got powerful enough for the raytracing revival.

One thing to note is that this is how fighting games handle everything as well usually, Intentionally though. They want to make it fair and thus slow down gameplay if the game lags out, always ensuring that one of the players doesn't get a head start on the other one while the game freezes up.

And also feels horrible to play, which is why it's sorta being replaced by rollback. A system, which, instead of freezing one side until they sync back up, let's inputs continue and eventually "pulls back" one of the players to be in sync, which feels far better (though looks worse, due to "teleporting" and the like) but is still vastly preferable due to how much more playable it makes poorer connections

A bug I never see talked about is one that's exclusive to hardware mode, but doesn't always occur. I don't know why, but very often, when you use hardware rendering, you won't be able to click on things. Sometimes you can't enter the police station; sometimes you can, but you won't be able to build the helicopter, because every time you click on a piece, it knows you're clicking on _something,_ but it doesn't move the piece.

From the screenshots in the video it looks like he is using x64dbg and HxD to do his analysis. Most likely he is either using IDA or Ghidra also for static analysis. But showing assembly code makes you look smarter ;) They aren't easy tools to use by any means, and you definitely need to have a programming background first so you're familiar with concepts like memory, types, control flow and pointers and can apply that knowledge to guess how the game was programmed, if you wanted to take on the challenge of figuring it all out yourself. I'd recommend following Stephen Chapman's Cheat Engine tutorials, which covers much of the same ground.

I just recently taught myself about Delta time and implemented a variable framerate in my own game project. Technically it's capped at 600fps, but my machine only hits ~340fps in my test room. No minimum Delta yet - but only because it's still a work in progress and I haven't yet decided what value to set it to.

I grew up with Lego Island as well as a couple other very basic Lego games from the era. After I did the haunted house gokart race I had nightmares about it lmao. I definitely remember the island being larger than it actually is. also always disapointed by the helicopter, being a helicopter nerd myself, I wanted to fly it around but it flies a preprogrammed path. It would be a blast to play LEgo Island in VR or to play that map in another game like Pavlov. thanks for all this work decompiling and fixing it, i'm gonna play it again after 20 years :)

I had a map of LEGO Island printed above my computer desk for a long time. I’m going to install it and try this. Loving your channel.

The simple windows api (win2K) call had a horrendous resolution of 16 ms. Spinning your own took time and introduced more sources for bugs. Some games tried to display the FPS by just dividing 1 second by the time it took to render a frame in milliseconds. Less than 1 millisecond? 0. What happens when you divide 1 by 0? Crash. I still have some old games that can only be run at less than 100 FPS or they start bugging out and crashing. The good old games that needed the "turbo" button to be playable.

I remember playing this on a really slow computer for the time. Each frame took. like, 5 seconds or something ridiculous like that. I remember interacting with things and it dragging on forever. I just eventually stopped playing the game and got in to playing with my Mighty Max toy sets. That spider and lizard was dope as hell.

I've found that keeping the turn speed at the default of 20 after unhooking it results in the speed now being way, way too low - the process of unhooking inherently slows it down. I find that 60 is a good number for the unhooked turn speed.

Lego city: *character turns a certain amount per frame me in unity: haha time.deltatime go BRRRRRRRRRRRR

The firing them to get out of paying bonuses is, or was, a standard practice at LOTS of game publishers. They would use promises of post-shipping bonuses to motivate the team during 'crunch time' leading up to project completion (caused by the management teams poor planning and generally doing their jobs terribly) and then either fire everyone immediately before/after shipping, or, if they thought they could get away with it, transfer them onto another project and tell them they don't qualify for the bonus because they were transferred. It's really remarkable how thoroughly the gaming industry exploits all kinds of people because they know the people actually want to work on games.

Amazing how satisfying it is to watch a guy and his obsession with a now 22 year old game. I also have lego island still in my heart and i still have the win 98 pc of my dad for nostalgy i reactivated it a few days ago and it sill runs flawlesly the good old pentium 3

The same thing applies to newer MS-DOS laptops when you try to run older games on them; they are simply unplayable. However, the new Sinclair ZX Spectrum remake computer can run old games at a fast (but playable) frame rate. Maybe the LEGO team could’ve learned from this.

making me remember one time i felt like replaying MechWarrior 3. i grabbed that for an old Dell laptop i had about 5-6 years ago, which was ok for it's time, but overkill for MechWarrior. i booted the game up, did a skirmish match after customizing a MadCat, and i couldn't play at all. for some reason, the increased CPU performance from what the game was designed for made it so the mech's legs were stuck in the ground and couldn't move. it was like they'd try to move, but then clip into the floor and was stuck in place. looking up the issue online, i found some app that would slow down my processor clock speed to the point the game would play normally

Apparently someone did that with the original doom so it's not necessarily impossible

Played through on an XP (and a Vista one to lesser extent) when I was little and never knew those weren't how the controls were supposed to be. Thought it was a little fast, but wasn't the worst issue. The worst issue I had probably had to do with the internal specs or something. The inside of buildings would flicker or mostly show themselves as a flat light blue color, bricks (both in building and when chasing the Brickster) could only be interacted with if *just* the right spot was clicked... it was weird. Playable, but weird.

Commenting at least to support in some way, what you do is way underrated. Thank you, keep it up!

that velocity turning thing would be fantastic if you simply increased the acceleration and deceleration rate; that would make it more responsive while also making sure a tiny tap of the key didn't jerk you left or right suddenly

I noticed a similar thing revisiting Lego Island 2. The helicopter is way too fast on modern PCs. I just fixed it by using the Nvidia control panel to lock my monitors frame rate at 30 FPS.

5:30 SPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!

in the GoldenEye 007 (n64) the movement speed is tied to the FPS. so a speedrunner looked at the ground. and got the world record. there would be a same case with fallout 3 and new vegas but theres a rule that is just that you need the FPS to be capped at 60 (not sure might be 59 fps)

This guys gonna be famous.

What was the actual solution you implemented? Turn on smooth turning, and set acceleration to 50k?

late reply, but it's just basically "current_turnspeed = max_turnspeed * delta_time"

This just makes me want a remastered LEGO Racers. 😩

It's one of the only old lego games that doesn’t dissappoint even after playing it on almost all platforms a 1000 times

7:35 is this track from 50 Classic Games on the DS? I remember falling asleep to that music and it sounds awfully familiar

"Delta-time is a solution that all games should use, and if a game doesn't, then that just means the devs forgot." I really don't think that's reasonable... delta-time is a design choice, not some magic bullet that a dev would be stupid to not use. It complicates the hell out of game logic, leading to a bunch of bugs when not done correctly. Just look at GTA San Andreas to see how bad it can get.

I love sitting down chilling watching MattKC Lego Island videos while eating muffins

As a QA I've noticed devs are very specific what should be called bug versus what shouldn't be as "bug" suggests it's an error in their code. So when you said that the devs admitted they noticed the "bug" only later suggests they had a clear idea how the turning should work and it is not working as they intended and your exploration of their code confirms this. If it was a forgotten framerate cap then they would perhaps label it as a bug for the whole game rather than just turning. Of course, that was long time ago and I don't know the full context so I'm just guessing.
