What's really interesting is that if you turn on the auto-generated captions in this video, they exactly match what she is saying. The algorithm is picking up on her words with way more accuracy than most speakers. Just listen to her articulation. Its perfect.

Why was she only given 30 minutes? >.< Excellent talk on a really cool subject, though.

Super impressed that she managed to present so much good info in the tiny scrap of time GDC gave her. Half hour talks are just a bad idea. The audience are developers. They want depth, not summaries. But anyhow, she mentioned constraint solving with "IK" solvers. I assume this is something different from Inverse Kinematics used for animation? Not having much luck searching around to figure out what it stands for so I can find more info. I had to laugh when she followed up mentioning it with 'don't write your own!' as I'd already opened a tab on another monitor to look into just that...

Yes. Inverse Kinematics. You had it right. Its a way to allow a sort of programming for joints so they can interact with the environment and be reactive instead of just an animation playing upon command, regardless of environment.

Inverse Kinematics wasnt all that hard the last time I tried, but that was under the assumption that approximations were sufficient, and you had the knowledge of how to do it well. If you dont have the academic knowledge of how to solve these kinds of problems, then yes it would probably be a poor idea to write them yourself. I have also worked with some other kinds of constraint problems, and while they might not be beginner problems, there are a lot of other things I would be far more hesitant to write myself. A simple feeed foward neural network requires more work in implementing than a simple constraint solver, at least the ones I worked with, while a support vector machine being something I would not want to completly implement by myself (though that does require one to solve several contraint problems). If one is familiar with Lagrange multipliers and/or some of the other techniques (depending on what type of problem to solve), then it becomes quite feasable to do. That said, I would not throw this at some random code monkey, as they would be stuck, but if you know what you are doing, then it isnt all that bad.

@John Smith "Rescue on fractulus" Was the first procedural game I saw (Atari 130xe version, so mid 1980s here), that was really ahead of its time.

I have to keep stopping this video every 2 minutes to google the all the references she's giving out. This is excellent!

It's OK. I've watched Gilmore Girls. This talk was PHENOMENAL. This is one of those talks that I have in stock all day, waiting for a break to see it, and then it turns out to be so amazing and invigorating, that it fully recharges my batteries and jolts me back to work!

this is the best talk about PGC. Too short, very interesting, well explained, great experience she has.

This talk was super interesting. I feel like a lot of the points that re just briefly mentioned could be entire talks on their own, so it's unfortunate that she didn't have more time.

I think this might be my favorite GDC talk of all time. I comment just now, but I've watched this video multiple times and apply some of the principles Kate discusses here on a day to day basis. Really great talk. A brilliant mind and excellent communicator!

second talk I've seen by Kate on procgen, she's amazing, huge expertise here. Extremely grateful to hear her wisdom

Searching more video of Kate Compton on KZread was not exactly what I expected

These speed-download talks are my favorite! no fluff, just data!

I've watched so many gdc talks and this is easily one of the best.

Wow this presentation is fantastic. Big thanks to Kate for sharing only a fraction of her experience. Definitely getting into PCG!

Outstanding overview, exactly as described. I had no trouble following and understanding the presentation. Excellent use of description and visual so we could see what was being discussed. Each approach described could obviously bear its own hour(s) long presentation, which I would absolutely watch (assuming it is not already out there, will check). Thank you!

Really love this talk, and all of the great details! Amazing work, Kate.

Fantastic talk. Thank you so much

She was great to listen to, it's clear she is passionate about it and likes to share her experiences with us

Great to hear from such an expert on a subject.

"A space of space creatures" - Brilliant.

I talk really when am in my normal state, she is doing great honestly, i loved her way of explaining stuff. Absolutely exciting

Procedural generation difficulty varies based on the desired outcome. Example: Procedurally generating infinite, immutable terrain is easy mode, whereas procedurally generating a full-size planet with LoD scaling terrain you can land on is quite a bit more difficult. Procedurally generating life forms ala No Man's Sky is roughly in between the two. I've been researching the topic for several years now.. It's fascinating stuff!

Great talk, even greater respect for her work. For me the 10 000 oat meals problem is a major highlight of this talk, because so many games suffer from it when it comes to generating terrain. For me it could be summarized as an ocean of content with the depth of a puddle. Take Minecraft, infinite world, countless amount of them, with many different biomes. But in most cases once you've seen a biome, you've pretty much seen any possible variation of it. No Mans Sky, you have an infinite amount of solar systems and planets. Sure, every planet is different from the last one, but once you've landed on the surface and spent more than five minutes on it, you've pretty much seen the entire planet, as there are no biomes.

Loved this. Real info. Learned lots. A+

awesome talk! Very informative and loved the speed

This is a good entry point video to PCG, since she provide a good overview a lot of follow ups and references.

What a densely packed Talk...! The Blog post, this video & the Resources mentioned in the last slide are going to keep me busy for a while.... Super Informative lecture by a very Talented Artist.... Her work really is awe-inspiring ! PS: I just googled Endless Screaming twitter bot :P .... you learn something new everyday !

Deep Respect - great talk!

This talk was way better than I was expecting, honestly. 25:00 I think she mentions No Man's Sky here, but it's also a shot across the bow to Borderlands and their... what, 4 billion different guns?

thanks for this intro! so good!!!!!!!

I speed up the audio usually anyway, so I appreciate her speech cadence. gogogogo.

Pretty good talk. Wish she had more than a half hour!

I love this kind of stuff

Very useful tutorial. I need to know which algorithm is best suited for creating a building in unreal engine with given vertices and height in the real time coordinates

Excellent speech!

OMG!!!... tnx!! this is awesome!!!

Amazing talk!

What an inspiring programmer!

Awesome talk!

If she didn't get a standing ovation, I swear to God...

To one of the questions about performance considerations on results: It's important to visualize this sorta stuff as a n-dimensional vector. It's a data container. If it isn't performant, but you have some other thing that is, you can interpolate between those two positions to achieve a compromise. It's what your GANs are doing when they are testing outcomes. You can do all sorts of curve-fitting on data to make it conform to constraints. You just have to be clear where point A is and where point B is. From there, it's just math.

my thirst for the information and her verborrheal delivery is a perfect match, could've watched two hours of her just explaining things

Fnatastic content !!! Thank you !!!

Great content! You get used to the pace in a few minutes.

I apologize for the very specific question but; How was the River Dredging generated when building worlds in Sore? Thank you for such a well made presentation!

An angry nun in a wedding dress?! Did that fanfic ever come to life? I am intrigued!

You had me at "I'm good at counting"

Bravo!

She is an absolute treasure

Damm seeing love for dwarf fortress from 2017 in retrospect is amazing now that the game is released on steam finally and a big hit

I'm frustrated that this talk had to be so short, she can't even pace the information comfortably. Not a diss on her though, I'm super interested in the topic, it deserves an hour and a half

Amazing talk, She should really go in depth for her next talk. Would love to watch that

Now here is someone who is passionate about what they do...

She convinced me in Spore

24:44 Do you have the source for that murder mystery generator? Would definitely want!

she is so awesome!

Good talk

does anyone know where to find the game she shows in the slide at 24:37? I remember playing around with it and I wanted to look it up again , but I forget how to type it in. Very fun interactive three panel narrative

She's awesome, and the action rogue-like game she mentioned called Unexplored is also great. Can't believe someone else has even heard of it.

I think Ashes of Creation's node system is begging to be tweaked and converted to use tiles (9:44). Anyone know what Intrepid Studios is going to try to randomly generate?

19:12 Me: Out of breath Her: I'm already behind ! Jokes aside, really cool talk.

I usually listen to talks and audiobooks at 1.5x because there's not enough time in a life, so I felt like this was nicely paced, but I do feel bad for non-native listeners. Most of these slides could also seed a batch of hour-long talks of their own!

I mean, if I already didn't know most of these things, most of the time I wouldn't have understood what exactly she means or how exactly is this technique used. Such a shame she wasn't given more time.

What if you just love PCG, want to try to make the best procedure world generator possible -- and then, since you have to the world, perhaps go ahead and build a game around it?

Can we get a procedurally generated keynote speech?

Yea, it's definitely easier to watch in 0.75 speed. Nice talk tho!

this is next level nerdy

her built in words generator is on overload mode

re: "10000 bowls of oatmeal problem" Yep. How much difference is there between one 20x20 km area in a Minecraft world and another 20x20 km area? Statistically speaking they're nearly the same. You may have 9 million times that area before you reach the world border but it's very repetitive past a certain distance. Not to mention every seed that isn't broken is functionally identical on that scale.

For nine of her 30 minutes she talks about what she is going to talk about - content generation at the best ;)
