Re: Nightdrive
#133This reminds me of the movie Drive (2011), in particular the first song on the soundtrack, Kavinsky - Nightcall https://youtu.be/MV_3Dpw-BRY
Very nice! I instantly recognized the tune but from a completely different event, namely https://youtu.be/wkF9w86XXKU That's the cover by band London Grammar and TIL about the original one. Didn't know about the movie which now is on my todo list, thanks.
I remember Alt-J performing a cover of "A Real Hero", another song from the Drive soundtrack, at Glastonbury festival years ago. The film and soundtrack were really cool.

Incidentally, that song was written with Chesley Sullenberger in mind, the pilot of US Airways Flight 1549, which he glide-landed in the Hudson River.
That guy is a real hero, and apparently a real human bean.

Wow Drive is from 2011? Man... I feel like it's a new movie. I loved it, maybe that's why.
Well it is a new movie, at least by period standards.
Broadly speaking you've got the B&W era until the 70s, the "old classics" recorded in colour on actual film up till the 90s, then the period of questionable CGI and campiness up till somewhere like 2005 when what we feel like is new/recent cinema starts. The ongoing era of decent invisible CGI, quality digital cameras, and post-9/11 hopelessness.
It's why I still watch a lot of 90s/early 2000s movies, there's just something different about that era that feels nice.

Re: Nightdrive
#137So realistic that it hogs the middle lane when it could move to the left ;)
The red line indicates the hard shoulder but yes, even after the law change here in UK I have not seen much actual change on the road tbh regarding middle-lane hogging.
People are either ignorant, lazy or don't care as there is very little chance of being caught.

#138I would love to see someone making a video of this and put it in stable diffusion to generate a even more synthwave experience.
Re: Nightdrive
#139I'm amused that we share initials and a passion for this kind of project! Mine's https://rezmason.github.io/drivey . One key difference: this guy built his demo from scratch, whereas mine's a port of someone else's work. It's great to see another implementation, with its own techniques and features.
This person is really incredible. Just check out their work: https://www.rezmason.net/projects.html
Re: Nightdrive
#140>The entire scene is created purely by drawing circles on a HTML5 canvas. It actually works a lot better than I expected. The biggest flaw is that the cars are totally transparent, so you can see lights from distant cars even where they should be occluded by closer cars.
Hmm, why not just draw a black rectange around any pair of car lights? It should work for givimg the impression of a solid car within the context of the video...
Edit: hmm, he does say this "This would be slightly harder than street light occlusion. Probably a first pass would be to render a black cuboid behind each car's lights, so that the cuboid blocks out anything that would be blocked by the car."
