Didn’t PS1 also lack perspective corrected texture mapping? That would definitely make textures wobbly. AFAIK they compensated for it simply by using as finely

- sgtnoodle 2y agoThe folk that made Crash Bandicoot were pretty clever. They figured out that the PlayStation could render untextured, shaded triangles a lot faster than textured triangles, so they "textured" the main character with pixel-scale geometry. This in turn saved them enough memory to use a higher resolution frame buffer mode. https://all-things-andy-gavin.com/2011/02/04/making-crash-bandicoot-part-3/ https://all-things-andy-gavin.com/2011/02/04/making-crash-ba...
