Doom 1 Parallax Mapping (2 versions available)

[r&r]

would the concept Parallax works for doom's 2d sprite weapons?

[Tormentor667]

Most propably not because the sprites are drawn flat directly as graphic to the hud.

wouldnd it be possible create voxel versions of doom's hud weapons instead? voxels would have the same look, since voxels are merely pixels arranged in a 3D space

perhaps with some good voxel work, it could be able to make voxel versions of doom's HUD weapons that looks just like the original 2D sprites,
but with the added benefit of being 3D and having real depth, while still looking just as chunky and pixel-tastic as the original sprites ?

just a random thought that sprung up in my head when thinking about 3D sprites... since voxels are litterally just 3D sprites in a way

Yes, it works in the hardware renderer. AFAIK, it does not work in software mode however, and this hasn't been fixed (yet?).

But this is probably far more trouble than what it's worth, since the voxels will look the exact same as sprites when put as a HUD weapon, and yes, this has been done before. The only time it could be actually useful is in VR.

hmm... well... a slight subtle sway could be added possible which occurs with the players movement
so that the player will actually be able to tell that the weapons are voxels instead of sprites?

it can be very subtle, just enough for the player to be able to tell the weapons are voxels instead of sprites

also, of course, any nearby lights like torches and such will also affect the hud weapons if they were voxels, which would look much nicer on voxel weapons.

perhaps the one same 'simulated sunlight' shader could be added to them like cherno recently added to his voxel hud weapons from his ''voxel chibi doom",
which add random lighting to the hud weapons to simulate random directional lighting on the hud weapons

Good Voxel work is extremely hard to come by, the only game I've seen with Voxels that are impressive is Ion Fury.

good impressive voxel work? ....ill just leave these threads right here

Reikall's Voxels.

Cherno's Voxel Chibi Doom

Voxelbro's Voxel addons

just a FEW of the many examples of great voxels
