Houston we have a greeble.

is that what space looks like from space? woah.

Yeah, space looks exactly like Earth. They just don't want you to know that.

Arent most of those anchor points for harnesses so the astronauts dont float away?

This shit is wrong about what greebles are, it's not just a random texture like they imply (and like the last iteration of this thread thought when I looked at it) but any kind of surface detailing added to make things visually interesting. Things that are added with fictional functional purposes in mind are still greebles, and they can be pretty major things as long as they're not part of the core overall shape of the vehicle/space station/whatever.

Greebling is arbitrary and random. That space station is very much practical and logically placed, hence it's not greebled.

Show us what good looking greebling is then. It's basically just wasting resources to add worthless shapes on armour and weapons that make no sense

Isn't Greeble a mapping, meaning that it simply manipulates the textures and the way they handle lighting, rather than creating more polygons for the GPU to render?

>People still aren't massive retards
Yeah, what a shock.

space is just earth, except it's in space.

OK, how about Mass Effect's Normandy? The things circled in red would all count as greebling if you asked a modeler (3D or physical) or propmaker.

Yes it is, people are using the term wrong. Listen to any actual TV/movie modeler/propmaker or to most game modelers and they'll use "greeble" for exactly those kinds of details, anything that adds interest or believablity to the basic core shape of the ship. The term was popularized around Star Wars' models and included all kinds of surface detailing, including major features, as long as they were stuff slapped onto (or into) the surface and not part of the base hull.

oh man that's a lot of greeble. it looks like a space castle.

Thats wrong, the purpose is to give large object sense of scale without a direct point of reference like a human or anything else to scale.
Also to make things seem moro visually appealing and realistic, as no large object can be constructed in a uniform manner with our technology at lest.

Go back to Yea Forums.

Greebles are an excuse to think less in design. Concept artists do it and it's so fucking played out especially since it's always the same 90 degree turns everywhere.

What the absolute fuck are you on.
Combine design is the exact opposite of greeble.

Greeble is just nonsensical noise, every detail on that is clearly designed

star wars is the worst abuse of greeble i've ever seen, especially the star destroyers.

i find that very disgreeble!

The deathdestroyer coined that term and it is made up of functional props. That is greeble by it's definition and if you disagree then you are wrong. The """"detailling"""" on warhammer 40k ships are greeble.

I guess real ships are just greebled to make them appear more complex

>kills optimization

normal/height maps have barely an impact on performance

Only because greebling would have been virtually impossible with the 3D technology of the time in a game of that scope and scale. Modern versions of those ships in Elite Dangerous (which is still headed up by the same guy as the originals) have greebles as well.

The space station is not in 0 gravity. It's falling very fast.

Gravity does not just turn off when you get 100km up. That's why planets go around the sun, there is still gravity working up there.

the Star Wars guys who coined the term literally said it's something that looks cool but doesn't actually do anything. Greebling is anything that exists to make ships look more visually interesting, it doesn't have to have a function.

greeble isn't -just- for adding complex detail though. it's for a sense of scale. when you see a tiny tower or box on a fuckhuge bigger box the box suddenly looks a LOT bigger than a dumb smooth cube. greebling is very important when you're making moon-sized man made surfaces

The space station is not falling. It is orbiting.
You could fall from that height by reducing your velocity wrt the earth to 0 so gravity pulls you straight down instead of through orbit

Any of the large ships in Eve Online. All of them.

falling is traveling towards the ground, not parallel to it. but sure if it makes you feel like a smart guy

isn't that just bump maps? they are not expensive, basically most stuff has them anyway. space games don't even look computationall expensive, they are just a couple of models dropped in a galaxy skybox.

Greeble is cool when they greeble first then they ad details that make the cubes look like machines

any warp travel that doesn't kill everyone, gets you vaguely close to where you need to be, and doesn't tear open a hole in reality is a success.

>can see the wolf starting to clamp down on her head

How badly did this end?

people are being fucking stupid here.
its not even a texture. its just a method to add detail to shit that wont be viewed up close, very popular with the original trilogy of Star Wars for example.
there is literally nothing wrong with it, and its not even used in games since its added geometry that is to be seen from far away, so in most cases its either used in big chunks or with normal maps.

In the end is just a modelling tool like anything else, just like extruding or bevelling

But why?isnt that still a sphere why cant???what???why would nasa hide a flat or other shape earth?but like but no this doesnt make sense this is fucking stupid

Those are all exaggerations, but they are nit far from the truth.
In the oldest ships who are several kilometers large there exists entire subcultures of people and crews living there.
Some parts are even hauted by otherworldly creatures that stalk the shadows and attack those who get lost in those parts.
If a breach happens during a Warp travel the ship can be invested with Daemons for example.
Usually those ships have a dormant AI in them which not everyone knows of ofc and since the Captain is connected with the ship he can operate some of its functions. If some parts of the crew are killed with luck they have some servitors to operate in those parts.

no onion earth theory is correct. earth has layers.

airports and runways are built around this, planes don't actually fly at all, it's all a lie, they just slide across the invisible layers, there are invisible ramps at the end of runways to allow this.

Rolling your windows down on the interstate will create more drag than your car being a block, you'll get a mile or so less per gallon if you greebed your car.

Geography nerd here: That's southern Turkey and Cyprus. You can also see a bit of Lebanon in the left.

Greeble isn't for adding detail for the sake of adding detail so much as it is for making things look bigger. It's why looks like it's several miles long while look like they're about 10 feet.

Not him, but when an airbag blows up the plastic cover is meant to fly on the side while an explosion makes a baloon inflate.

The crew will replenished at the nearest human world. The wh40k universe is horribly overpopulated. It's part of the worldbuilding. The human side sends a constant stream of billions of under-equiped soldiers into doomed battlefields just to starve over-population. It makes no sense that they replenish people so fast despite the constant infinite wars, but apparently they do. In that scenario of warp travel the potential damage and loss of ancient technology can be a serious blow to the ship's efficiency but the loss of crew is a joke.

this isn't greebling. this is just actual complexity

that explanation is literally how actual astronauts and physicists explain it. it is exactly whats happening. you just have more sideways velocity than velocity from gravitational acceleration. you are still being pulled downwards, otherwise you would just shoot off into space instead of orbit.

no...it's greebling.

despite this, they still did a poor job of portraying the scale of the death star
realistically all the shit they did on the death star would take 10 times longer than it actually did

Fucking idiot, greebling can't spread to hu

None of the people who replied to you know shit about 40k except for maybe .

The answer is that old ass image is bullshit used to lure people into the fandom.
Anyone who has read anything about 40k would know that warp travel is safe and reliable, and that navy personnel are highly trained and long lived professionals.
Otherwise there would be a lot more instances of ships arriving 1000 years earlier than they left, or entire space marine chapters disappearing with their battle barge, or there wouldn't be any ships at all for that matter considering almost all of them are anywhere from thousands to tens of thousands of years old with probably 50% of that time spent in the warp.

Damn this thing is huge, how do they even power it?

For the on foot section, I disagree: It makes sense that they were pulled to an "important" section of the station, since they were going to be interrogated regarding their connection to Alderran. All of their objectives were local as well (Rescue Leia from local detention, disable tractor beam, run like hell.)

As for the space combat, that's where things get dicey: The station is just too large to make the scenes make sense: There's no reason to ride the trench for more than a few moments to line up your shot: coming in perpendicular to the surface right next to the port (Like Han does) would be best.

Of course, the E6 Death Star run is the real contender for making no sense: Kilometers of construction site and not a single obstacle in a conveniently Falcon-shaped tunnel. Literally all it would take is someone driving a Space CAT across with a load of girder and we're done.

How hasn't a giant sea monster that lives in that lake just eat up their lands yet?

space fuel

They have important soldiers (space marines) and important resources (ships, vehicles, relic, technology, fuel, whatever). They also have completely unimportant people (common crews and soldiers). They die a lot. In fact they send them to die to avoid overpopulation. Indeed, most of the time, the point is not to move around these common unimportant people, and while that picture about warp travel exaggerates the loss, it is indeed a loss that they don't care about. It's the only resource they have in plenty amount. By plenty I mean, mysteriously infinite, because the bad writers say so. People dying constantly is dark and gritty.

stop using the words you don't understand

My man.
I fucking loved how they made the human world so ridiculously dangerous but its literally nothing maybe 1% of the danger of the gourmet world.
I didnt mind the anime adaption either just a shame it didnt go far.

my favorite explanation to flat earth and why nobody has found the 'edge' is that it has a 'pac man effect' where if you go beyond the edge of the world you get teleported to the other side, meaning it's absolutely not a sphere at all guiz

The sea around the continents is too shallow presumably. Other maps make a distinction between "uncharted waters" around the human map and the further out "dark waters", which are apparently impossible to go through by ship.

howzs the anime?

No, they're Grebles to make it look more complex and pretend there's been any form of advancement since they faked the moon landing.

I like the theory that antarctica is actually the ice border and the government (global shadow government?) just shoots anyone trying to cross because the lie of the globe is THAT profitable.

I never noticed how efficient camo was until playing War simulators. 100 meters is so fucking far away you can barely see shit already. I don't know how snipers are shooting like 2 km away.

Greeble is sci-fi/steampunk/dystopian cyberpunk by default. I guess the closest thing to greeble in a fantasy setting is these type of pseudo-medieval buildings that repeat themselves in block units and appear to grow like tumors. Sometimes you have fantasy cities built on a mountains or cliffs that are packed full of these. Again it's not exactly greebling, just the closest fantasy equivalent in concept.

OP is a faggot

so just ugly tesselation?

Read the manga first.
There are two anime, one made in 1999 and one made in 2011.
I've watched and liked 1999, but it took some liberties compared to the source material. It ended early due to catching up with the manga, but an OVA or two was released to complete the last arc (York New City) the TV anime was covering. I've heard that the original OVAs for the arc after (Greed Island) are terrible due to early digital animation.
Haven't watched 2011, but it covers almost the entire series and stops just short of the current (on hiatus) arc in the manga. The first episode or two fails to include a certain character who serves as a motivator for the MC and closest thing he has to a father figure, forcing the anime to improvise and suddenly introduce him and his connection to the MC when he returns to the plot in a later arc. Keep that in mind if you choose to watch the 2011 anime.

it still bugs me to this day that the Death Star has such a shitty weakness. not only that but the weakness is on the outside. you'd think you'd have to get to the core to destroy it or force an overcharge/misfire of the planet destroying laser. but no, go pew pew in its butthole and it explodes.
